To get back-spin on the ball, strike
the ball first and then the ground after
it. The right foot should be well adj

left foot. The nose of the club is turn

and hold the elbows well into the body,
so as to make the swing as compact as
possible. After the club head strikes
the ground, both the hands and the

ed at So. but today 1t was selling
ex-dividend GA cents. Praire Oil
and Gas dropped points to 1.75 and
Vacuum lost point. to 43. Ohio Oil

In the independent oil section net
declines were confined to fractions
generally. although some of the Wy
oming issues appeared weaker than
the rest. There was heavier selling

developed in industrials. which pre-
sented an irregular price appearance.
Metal stocks were quiet and there
was only light trade in bonds.
