New-York tribune., 1922-12-11

knew there were other shots in goli
running them up.
Push shots, bGek-spin twirters, the
axquisltely remarkable fade-swHy shot
which sarazen does better than any
other golfer In this eouutry, we're all
Greek manouvers 20 this gallery. New
ertheless, tho entire audience was
keenly appfeeiative o. The lads won
derful skin.
Joo Humphries. with the aid o'
George Sparllng, Sarszens fTt and
only tutor, announced the shots as
Sarazeu made them. Joe was In his
usual good voice. and although ne got
his boxing terms slightly mixed with
his golf parlanee AZ times, he ably In.
formed the crowd o. the why's aad
chanieI Of Sarazen's swing.
Shots Made 10 order
We don't know what the Others rot
out Of the show, but the thing that inn
preEFed US most was SaraZen's ability
20 call a low ball, With q slight fade
90 the right. and 70 play II exactly as
he called it. In playing this shot Ssr-
azen used a closer stance than usual
ard played the ball a little from be-
hind. In other words, he played the
ball more Oh the left foot than the
right. Also, he ehoked his swing con-
sidcrably end drove the head Of the
cluo into the ground as be struck the
ball.
sarazen Will and that sAo. quite use
fol on Brtaln's seaside courses. 10
fact, he developed the shot for that
very reason.
One day We were discussing Sara
zen's possibilities abroad with Abe
Mitchell. IL think Sarnzsn will do we'll
In our tournament" he said, because
his game is we'll suited for our courses.
He can play that low shot well and bic
ball falls away 20 the right We all
have 20 learn that shot, he said, be-
cause our greens are 20 slippery you
can't hold them otherwise"
Sarazen yesterday showed that 10
could play the baek-spin quite ns we'll
ns the master, Jock Iiutchison. The
champion copied the stroke from Hutch
and we dare say the Chicagoan couldn't
very well distinguish Il from his own.
sarazens back-spin hasn't quite the
hop to L Hutchison's has, but Il Is
nearly as effective. The youth SAID
that Il was a wonderful help 20 him in
both the open and the p. G. A. tourna-
mcnts.
L was announced from U. s. G. A.
headquarters yesterday that the na-
tional vomen's championship In 1923
would be restricted 70 women players
having a handicap Of 70 II. II was
known AZ the women'8 tournament az
White Sulphur Springs this year that
the field would be restricted next sea-
sor, although az that time the commit
tee was contemplating a maximum
handicap OF 10 hs the dtad-line.
It Is planned 70 publish. Thirty days
prior 20 tho tournament. the names OF
those eligible FOR the tournament.
Those whose names DO not appear on
the list and who feel that they are ell
glblc for the tournament can submit

rent playing season, duly certified. and
