TRepubIIean A. p. Leased WIrel

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. i4.-No gen
eral Increase in wages for soft coal
miners, but the direction of all ef-
forts toward retaining present wage
scales was the policy adopted by the
scale committee of the United Mine
Workers of America for submission
to the unions special convention that
begins tomorrow. according to semi
official information received by con-
vention delegates.
The committees report on wage
demands to be sought on the basis Of
new agreement with operators ef-
fective April /. was adopted finally
at a long afternoon session.
Despite the announcement Of the
committee which included the q dis
trict presidents of the union, their
report was understood to include no
proposal Of strike and likewise
made no demand for adoption OF the
six hour day. five day week as pro-
posed by the demands of 1919.
The only comment on the possibil-
ity of a strike was that OF Interna-
tional President John l.. Lewis, who
issued this formal statement:
The United Mine Workers Of
America do not desire a strike. We
propose to do everything possible in
a proper way to prevent such an oc-
currence. ! feel sure when the con-
vention has finished it's work the
public will realize this fact.

Golf Hardest Game for
The Beginner IOM Master
BY BILLY EVANS

Golf has generally been considered
the hardest of all games to master.
Does such an impression do the
game an injustice? Does that view
point tend to make the efforts of the
beginner all the more difficult?
At a recent meeting of a number of
professional golf players in New
York, it was my very good fortune TO
h ear this question thoroughly
thrashed out.
A great many OF the best players in
the country do not agree with the
statement that golf is the most diff
ficult of all games TO master.
Don't get the impression that any
of them regard 1t as an easy game to
learn. Far from il. However. the
consensus of the golfers / heard dis
cussing the question. was that the
game was not nearly as hard to mas
ter as the beginner really thinks II is.
Most players take up the golf game
with the wrong impression.
They start out believing that 10
play good golf one must be a special
list, and give up much Of his time to
the game.
They start out with q number of
peculiar theories. the result of per-
haps years Of gossip they have heard
other golfers disseminate. They all
start. feeling they are taking up a
game that only a very few ever
master.
They are in the wrong frame of
mind from the very outset. When
one starts TO play tennis handball,
have the impression that he is try
N OF frat< n. In oh
a few become expert.
Perhaps no one feature OF golf is
overdone more than the follow
through idea. The beginner in golf
has seen thousands of pictures show
ing the finish of this or that golfers
swing. He has heard time and again
that a golfer doesn't get anywhere
unless he has the old follow through
to his swing.
Golfers Start Out Wrong
With a great many people the sole
thought when they start to play golf
is how the stick should be when they
finish their swing. That is one of the
hardest features the instructor has to
overcome.
In baseball when a player catches
a fly ball he doesn't pay any atten-
tion to the position Of his feet. hands
or body. He. simply keeps his eye on
the ball, knowing that if he judges
the ball correctly, the rest of his body
will coordinate with his judgment.
When a batter swings at the ball,
he gives no thought as to how he will
look when he finishes his swing. His
main object is to keep his eye on the
ball and hit it properly. If he does
that his body will assume its proper
position at the finish of the swing.
The follow through idea is really
of joke with most of
he professionals. They know that il
he eye is kept on the ball and the
swing properly done until it meets
he ball. that the rest will follow.
In golf. the proper swing is the
hing. Far more important is to keep
mes eyes on the ball. Concentrate
IN hitting the ball in a proper man

played in the class r league but
were obliged to forfeit one game for
using an ineligible player. Tempe
Normal won all of its games in the
class A league, defeating Mesa high,
Phoenix high and the Phoenix In
dians two games each.
That the two contesting teams are
evenly matched was evidenced in the
first games of the series. On it's
home floor, the Tempeans had a slight
advantage. their familiarity with the
baskets giving them enough advant-
age to nose out a victory. But when
the squads got together on the Gill
bert floor, the advantage was with
the Gilbert players.
Tonight's contest at Mesa gives
promise of being one of the hardest
contested basketball games ever
staged in the valley and a large dele.
cation of Phoenix fans will be on

Keep Your Eye on Ball


Keep Your Eye on Ball
The big thing is to hit the ball
properly. What Is done before the
ball is hit is far more important than
how your club and body looks when
you finish. First hit the ball properly
and the finish win be in keeping with
the hit.
That in substance is the way the
games leading professionals view the
thought that golf is the most difficult
of all games to master.
Which narrows 1t all down to the
mental attitude of the player. Just
make up your mind that there is
nothing mysterious about the game.
Follow the instructions offered by the
professional to the letter. and don't
get the impression you are master OF
the game after few lessons.
And, OF all things. forget the
thought that YOU must follow
through. DO the first part OF the
swing correctly and the proper fol-
low through win naturally result.

NEW CHAMP COMING

Joe Kirkwood, the Australian golf
champion, is to visit America again
this year.
Kirkwood. aside from being re-
markable golfer, has a bag of trick
shots that are almost beyond belief.
Last year Kirkwood entertained
thousands with his trick shots In
money. However. from a golfing
standpoint, Kirkwood's tour was any
thing but satisfactory to him.
While Kirkwood played fine golf in
all the events In Great Britain and
this country, still he failed in the one
thing that he set out to do, win
championship.
In his trick exhibitions Kirkwood
displays control over the golf ball
that is uncanny. He makes IT do
almost anything that he desires.
It is rather strange. then. that a
player who can do so many tricks
with the golf ball was unable to
demonstrate his mastry over the field
in straight play
IT is possible that trick golf calls
for a different coordination OF mind
and muscle than the competitive
game. In many fields of sport we
find the same phenomenon.
The champion bag punchers rarely
have. any particular standing as a
boxer. The strong men in a circus
are a Joke when they take up the
wrestling game. or boxing.
Others insist that Kirkwood be-
cause of the many trick shots in his
repertoire, has a number Of ways of
playing the same shot. In compe-
tition, he is often undecided as to
what style 10 use, with the result
that he usually selects the wrong one.
