Notre Dame Basket Tossers DouOn Northwestern 80 to 20
BILLY EVANS
Says

During the football season. IN
reading the accounts OF the big
games on the coast. II was not al
all uncommon TO read about many
a forward pass that Travelled 40 or
more yards.
In the east a 50-yard pass Is re
garded as most remarkable. Muller
of California thinks nothing of hurl-
ing the old football through the air
for so yards.
A prominent eastern coach who
saw California trim Ohio State. and
who also attended the washington
and jefferson game I'm which Cali
fornia was held to a tie, offers a
very interesting and plausible ex-
PLANTATION for the long passes that
are made in coast football Here
is his line Of reasoning.
There is a great difference in the
atmosphere on the coast as com
pared with the east. The air is light
and lacks resistance. A ball Will
travel much farther under such con
ditions.
when Ohio state and California
played on New Year Day. 1921
Workman, Ohio States quarterback
was outthrowing his receivers al
through the first half. He coult
not understand it
Workman was putting no NOR,
STUFF behind the ball than bach
east and still the ball was travelling
from 5 to 10 yards farther than il
ever did before for him and his re.
ceivers could not get to the bail.
Between halves he was told Of
the difference in atmosphere. In tn,
second half the passes went better
/ for he threw with less force than ht
ever did in his life and still the bal
went as far as he ever threw it.
Same thing with the sprinters OF
| the coast. They do remarkably well
due to atmospheric conditions. Same
goes for weight men.
( Few people have any idea Of tn,
advantages gained due to the atmos
pheric conditions in California
would wager that if Muller playet
on an eastern gridiron he would fin,
his passes cut down by from 5 to Il
yards and maybe more"

PIN ACTIVITIES TO
WIND UP WITH BIG
DUAL ATTRACTION
City and State Bowling Tour
naments to Draw Large
Entry List From City.

Every big institution aims to stage
a fitting climax 10 its seasons activi-
ties and the bowling game is going
20 contribute its share in their own
way. Bowling for the 1922 sea-
son is nearing TO its close and its
activities Will be wound up with a
double attraction, the state and city
tournaments.
At a meeting Of the tournament
committee Of the South Bend Bowl
ing association last week it was de
cided 10 hold the annual champion
ship games of the members of the
organization beginning the third
week in April. The tournament will
be staged on the drives of the or
pheum bowling alleys.
AS the membership of the South
Bend Bowling association is much
larger than in any previous year
and all more interested in tourna-
ment play by reason of education. q
very large entry is anticipated. The
committee, which is composed OF
Messrs. Mossholder, Trainer, Brown
ell, Morehouse and Arnold, hope tC
stage in the neighborhoOd Of 100
teams.
State Show Will BE Big
The double bill for the seasons

of the Indiana Bowling association
which will be held at Anderson dur
ing the month of April. Although Of

were some local skeptics who feared
that the holding Of the state and cit.
tournaments at the same time woUl'

is certain that one will serve in tn

Both of these tournaments come a
a time when the local leagues ar
drawing to a close. All members o
the city association are eligible t
both events and while bOwlers ar

velops a slow ball and change
Of pace?
I am positive a change Of pace
viii prove most beneficial 70 any
pitcher. Not only will It tenG 10
prolonE his career but it viii make
his task OF winning ball games much
easier
am sorry that I didn't try to
master a slow ball earlier IN ny ca
reer. Some pitchers take naturally
10 the throwing OF a slow ball.
IT is a matter Of record that pitch
ers using a very fast ball have al
ways had more or less difficulty
mastering the slow ball
am at a loss 20 account for such
a condition. unless it IS because the
grip on the ball is much different in
throwing the fast or slow ball.
I have spent much time Of late
trying 20 perfect slow ball, but have
met with only fair success.
For a slow ball TO be effective. il
must be thrown with exactly the
same motion as the fast ball. That
has been my greatest difficulty with
the slow ball
have found IL a hard matter TO
use my fast ball motion I'm delivering
the slow ball. As a matter Of fact,
have never been able TO consist

shifting my style slightly. which OF
course tips the batter off TO the slow
ball
Despite the fact that the slow
ball requires no great physical eff
fort, it is not necessarily an easy de-
livery on the arm. The greatest
asset of the slow ball in prOlonging
the career Of "A fast ball pitcher is
that it makes it easier for him TO
win. If the opposition starts clout-
ing his fast one he has something
different in reserve.
You can take this tip from me as
one who knows, that the fast ball
delivered with a natural motion is
much easier on the arm than any
other delivery used by a pitcher.

Wrong Theories
Give Bad Start
To Many Golfers
Follow Through Immaterial
as Compared With Keep
ing Eye on Ball.
BY BILLY EVANS.

Golf has generally been consider
ed the hardest Of all games to mas
ter.
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 recent meeting Of a number
Of professional golf players i'm New
York. it was my very good fortune
to hear 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
difficult of an games to master.
Don't get the impression that any
of them regard it an an easy game
to learn Far from ii. However.
the consensus of the golfers I heard
discussing the question was that
the game was not nearly as hard to
master as the beginner really thinks
it IS
Most players take UP the golf
game with the wrong impression.
They start out believing that TO
play good golf one must be a spec
ialist, and give up much OF his
time 10 the game.
They start out with number Of
peculiar theories. the result Of per-
haps years Of gossip they have heard
other golfers disseminate. They ali
start feeling they are taking up
game that only a few ever master.
They are i'm the wrong frame Of
mind from the very outset. When
one starts 70 play tennis handbalL
or any of the other sports he doesn't
have the impression that he is try
ing to master a game i'm which only
a few become expert.
Perhaps no one feature Of golf IS
overdone more than the follow
through idea. The beginner I'm 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 10 play
golf is how the stick should be when
they finish their swing That is one
of the hardest features the iustruc-
tor has 10 overcome.
In baseball when a player catches
a fly ball he doesn't pay any atten-
ton 10 tha position Of his feet
hands or body. He simply keeps his
eve on the ball. knowing that if he
judges the ball correctly, the rest
OF his body viii coordinate with his
judgment.
When a batter swings at the ball,
he gives no thought as 10 how he
viii look when he finishes his swing.
His main object IS 20 keep his eye
on the ball and hit IL properly. Il
ne does that his body will assume
/ It's proper position at the finish OF
/ the swing
The follow through idea is really
| cousidera BILE of a joke with most OF
I the professionals They know that
I If the eve IS kept on the ball and the
swing properly done until It meets
7 the ball. that the rest viii follow.
In golf the proper swing Is the
I thing Far more important is 10
] keep ones eye on the ball. Concen-

trate ON hitting the ball in a proper
manner Don't take the eye off the
ball 20 follow its flight before the
club actually comes into contact

If a player gets into such a habit
he isn't going 10 get many thrills

Keep Your Eye on Bali
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 Will 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 II all down to the
mental attitude OF ne player. Just
make up your mind that there Is
nothing mysterious about the game.
Follow the instructions offered by
the professional 10 the letter. and
don't get the impression you are
