'gestcd to Mr.. Kendrick the possibility
that with an enlarged field Princeton
and Pennsylvania might get together
again in football Mr.. Kendrick heart
lily seconded the motion. This brought
from Mr.. Roper the following remark:
IF had my way the Princeton foot
ball team would have been seen on
Franklin Field long time ago, and 7
hope the time will soon come when we
will play each other again.
With the arrival of the ofiicial invita-
tion from the Achilles Club, Of London,
composed of former Oxford and Cam
bridge athletes, for the university to
send relay team to compete in the
first set of intercollegiate and inter
scholastic relay races held in England
plans are being made to have the Red
and Blue properly represented.
B. G.. d. Rudd, in whose name the
invitation was extended. told the Penn
sylvania authorities they might select
their own distance. Pennsylvania will
name either the two or the four mile
relay. Final decision will not be made
for some weeks. The team in all like
lihood will sal; from this country on
March 22 and be back about ten days
before Pennsylvania own relay car
nlvai. There is possibility that the
athletic authorities of France will ar
range race in Paris for the Red and
Blue athletes before their return.
The trip to England has raised great
interest In track sports at Pennsylva.
MIA. The Red and Blue is particularly
happy oyer the fact that it's own relay
carnival is being taken as the model
for the English games. AS. both CAPTAIN
Rudd and Sir Theodore Cook have
written Pennsylvania, the English are
convinced that relay racing will do fo,
them what it has done for America.

Jim Barnes Playing Down-HM Lie

In playing the down-hill lie the first
thing to remember is that you brace
With the left leg instead Of the right,
shot.
The left leg does The bracing, to keep
YOU from falling forward, one of the
most common faults in the down-hiil
or down-slope effort.
The feet are further apart. The ball
should be about midway between the
feet, with an open stance.
Having taken this position, with the
left leg held firmly, the next thing to
take. mp to keep the weight we'll back
in the act of hitting the ball
III the uphill shot the weight goes
forward. but it must be held we'll in
check for the opposite slope. If the
weight isn't held back one is almost
sure TO fall in toward the ball. r;
The Swing
Playing down Hill it is necessary to
use an upright swing, This again is
almost opposite to the swing used for
the up-slope, where it is better to fol-
low the angle of the ground.
There is always tendency to slice
in playing down hill, so it is just as
we'll to play for the left Of the green.
ihrec important details to remem-
Der are to shorten the swing, stand
closer to the ball and use more lofted
clubs.
AS the down. slope shot is one of the
hardest in golf, by shortening the grip
one gets better control Of the stroke.
1t is a big mistake in this stroke to-
carry the hands out ahead of the club.
Always let the club head get there first.
Ii the hands get in ahead of the club
it is much harder to get the ball up.
The main thing in the down-hil try
IS, OF course, to get the ball up quick
~, as there is a decided tendency to
top. SO hit through and lift the club
head as it passes under the ball This
is one of the few places in golf-al-
most the only one--where | advocate
attempting to lift the ball. For, as a
rule, any attempt to lift the ball is
sure to lead to trouble. but the down.
sloper is often an extreme case.
The Mental Attitude
The mental attitude Of the golfer
often plays a big part in this stroke.
For when the average player comes to
a decided downhill lie he surrenders
at once.

No 8.-The Fastest Pair of Legs

There isn't much argument here. If they don't be-
long to Charlie Paddock. of California then stop

Paddock has 100 yards in fast time as Duffey,

faster than any of the four by distinct margin.
All told the fleet Californian is the exclusive owner
of ateast six records and to-day there isn't pair of

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Dec. 17.-At Le-
high University these days the all
absorbing matter is the question of a
football and baseball coach who will
act as allyear-round resident coach
1t is not likely that the selection will
be made until after the holidays.
Up to now the leading candidates are

With the taking on of Gettysburg,
the football schedule for 1922 is now
complete. That eleven with Catholic
University, Brown, Colgate and Buck

be played at home, with the place for
the Brown contest still pending.
The schedule is as follows: Septem

Brown, place pending; 28, Muhlenberg,
at home; November 4. Colgate, away;
il, Bucknell, at home; 18, Lebanon

With forty-five men out for the var
sity wrestling team and thirty aspir-
ants for the freshman mat team, and
the. basketball quintet holding daily
scrimmages, Taylor gym is mighty
busy place these days.
Coach Billy Sheridan is not pessi-
'mistic over the seasons outlook. He,
however, would like to have more
heavy material to work with. Mem
bers Of the football eleven usually fill
the heavier classes, but few have re-
ported so far this year.
There are few outstanding feature $
Of the varsity squad as it stands to-
day. Schumacher, in. the l45-pound
class, is showing UP splendidly, and
Cox, a 13b-pounder, gives promise OF
speedy development. No captain has
been elected as yet and none will be
until after the elimination contests,
which will take place shortly after the
holidays.

downward dip of the left knee is an ex-
aggerated motion. If almost any other
golfer tried it he or she would come
to grief.
=, Form. in its main parts, is some

care to copy Rays sway or Miss

reason that it would take six or seven
times as long to get anywhere as it
would by following the body movement
and the knee action Of Duncan, Vardon
or Barnes among others.
The man who lifts his head hasn't
good form, for he commits one Of the
cardinal sins aat the most important
part of the stroke. His form may be
perfect up to this point, but there it
stops. Yet this is matter that hard :
~ comes under the head of form.
There may be several varieties Of
good putting form, but no sound vari-
ETY., that also includes moving the body
OF head before hitting the ball. Form

average player can study from. Once
again, it is the shortest road to the

Preparing a Foundation
That Will Permit Dou-
BILE Decking in Future

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17.-Plans for
the reconstruction of Franklin Field
the athletic home of the University of
Pennsylvania, are proceeding rapidly
The Committee on Public Works of the
City Council this week unanimously
approved an ordinance Permitting the
university to arcade the sidewalks sur
rounding Franklin Field so that the
stanas may be built higher and further
back. This will give q minimum seat
ing capacity of $4,000, with n possbil-
ity that a maximum Of $1,000 may be
obtained.
Although the actual form of the
structure has not been determined it
is the present intention completely to
rebuild the stands, even to the extent
of putting in new foundations. 1t is
the belief of the Pennsylvania authori-
ties that even $4,000 seats will not
meet the increased demand for many
years.
1t is their plan in preparing the
foundations to make them firm enough
to permit double-decking at some flu
ture date if necessary. This will give
tota! seating capacity Of more than
$4,000. The form of the new structure
will also be changed so that there will
be exits on all sides, thus correcting
the congestion which now exists at all
the big games.
During che hearing in City Council
the other day an interesting exchange
took place between William W. Roper.
head coach OF the Princeton University
football team, who is also member OF
the City Council, and Murdoch Ken
drick, a member of the University of
Pennsylvania athletic council. MIR.
Roper was ono OF the most enthusiastic
members of the council in urging that
the city authorities give everv assist

"Just what" asks reader, sis meant
by good form in golf? I read where
Ted Ray sways and others don't; where
Duncan likes the square stance and
Barnes the open stance; where Evans
uses one grip and Ouimet another and
Travers something else. If they arc
all SO different, how can there be any
set form?''
These details mentioned have practi-
cally nothing to do with form. They
are merely variations Of modes or
methods.
the head Of crratic form or style, but
not the others.
What Is Form?
We have been asked if a man could
play good golf and still have bad
form. He could.
1t might be that one fault would Off
set another, or that through long, hard
practice and habit he had succeeded
where others could not follow. Form
rarely goes into details--only to es-
sentials. Ted Ray can sway his body
and get away with woodcn-club play.
Ily
nor often Of high standard.
Form should be the shortest road to
the easiest way. 1t should be the har-
Dor to which the wrecked golfer, off
his game, can return.
Its main result should be correct
balance at the top of the swing through
proper pivoting and distribution of
weight, with a working arrangement
among the hands, arms and body on
the down swing that brings the club
head in at the right moment.
George Duncan and jim Barnes are
not alike in their play, yet both have
fine form.
Both understand the art of correct
pivoting, Of balance, Of weight distri-
button and Of timing.
The Essentials
A golfer might use any ono OF three
or four grips. He uses any ono of
three stances--sQuare, open or closed.
None of these is an essential.
But to get anywhere he must have
these adiuncts to his play.
/. A fairly straight left arm, only
slightly bent, not too rigid.
2. Have the left shoulder and the
left knee pivot together, with the
weight distributed on the back swing
between the right foot and the inside
of the ball Of the left foot.
8. The right elbow in close touch
with the body, or at least not too far
away,
A. Tho head, as an anchor to the
swing, held in one place.
s. The ability to wait on the stroke
and not hit too quickly or the way
through
6. Swing the club head back with
the left hand in control on the side of
the ball, not lifting it on the outside
of the ball with the right.
Here we have at least six important
factors of correct form. They form
the working basis for sound game il
carried out.
Form also, to certain extent, means
ease Of effort. Where there Is rigid
ity or laborcd swinging there can be
very little form.
Duncan and Yardon are the two
greatest stylists, two greatest masters
Of form we have ever seen, because
they work with greater case and
greater simplicity.
There is no trick of motion on the
part of either. Nothing is wasted.
Neither ever gives any sign of hard
hitting, and there is no appearance Of
overriding.
When you see golfer Of exceptional
form at play the first thought always
is, ''How casv 1t looks"
: ccci! Leitch, for example, is great
