Plan your second shot after you

/. Do not choose the club for
your second shot until after you
have stepped up to the ball and
measured the distance ahead with
your eye. You choose the club after
you know what the distance is
Then pick the right club. Do not
force your clubs. You are always
wrong when you take a chance"
on forcing a short club to try for
a longer clubs distance. Learn the
range of your clubs and approx.
mate distance by clubs. not by
yards.
2. Play all clubs alike, except the
putter, as FAR as grip and swing
are concerned. The iron clubs be.
low the midiron are not taken back
quite as far as the driver. but
otherwise the shot is precisely the
same as the drive from the tee

That just about covers the situa-
tion. Certainly no one, however
prejudiced. can take issue with the
fact that Leonard made Tender look
very bad in the last three rounds.
There was much Of the theatrical
about the attitude Of this pair.
They exchanged pleasantries with
vicious punches and Leonard con-
tinually protested to Referee Ertle
that he was being fouled, n claim
that brought warnings from the
official several times. There was
no mistsking their hostility for
each other.
The enterprise drew a crowd Of
10000 and the receipts mounted " ell
above the $3.50, 900 mark. OF this
sum, Leonard win probably draw

In these suggestions are all the
secrets have for playing par golf.
My only regret is that cannot fur.
nish music YOU can make your
own, however, for know that fifteen
or twenty strokes off the scorecard
will make the sweetest music the
golfer cares to hear.
1-Never hurry a golf shot, par
ticularly from the tee. I say from
the tee because this Is the place
where you are most likely to hurry
one. Players waiting behind you,
and an anxiety to be done with the
first shot and be on your way, out Of
close vision of onlookers-these and
other factors frequently cause one to
hurry his play with the tee shot.
One Of the surest rules in golf is that
the hurried shot Is almost sure to be
a poor shot. Take your time.
Make a low tee. Your second
shot, II you drive straight down the
fairway. Is sure TO be from q lie
close to the ground or perhaps In a
slight depression I'm the ground.
The player who uses q low tee is In
better shape for his second shot,
whether II Is made with the brassie
or an iron.
3-Don't practice on the tee. 1t is
annoying to~other players when you
delay your game. and theirs, by using
the tee for an unduly prolonged siege
of practice swings. Two or three
practice swings are permissible,

MoosUP PULLS AWAY OWING
 TO MONEY DIFFICULTIES

Secretary Hal Chase of the Eastern Connecticut league comes forth with the following letter in which he states that AIoosup did not quit the league to play faster ball but because of if nancial difficulties. MT. Chase's let ter follows:-
 In justice to the league I will give the reason for Moosup's withdrawtl as stated by their representative MT. Girard at the meeting.
 The club is in financial difficulties owing to various reasons, principally to the fact that it was necessary to purchase new equipment throughout to start the season first, and second that owing to labor trouble in the town no relief is in sight for the baseball treasury.
 The statement in these columns that Moosup was quitting the league to play faster ball is erroneous, as a glance at the standing of the Moosup club in the league will show if any ed up with was altogether too fast
 The Eastern Connecticut League at it's inception did not strive to attain big league calibre, but the games to date have proven for the most part as good as any ever played in semi pro circles, and judging from the eff forts of the managers of some of the so-called fast clubs, playing indepen- dent ball, in trying to secure the ser vices of some of the league talent to bolster up their acknowledged world beaters, there must be some class in the league.
