JOE RAY FACES
HUMILIATION
ONCE MORE
Eight :, Time National Mile
Champ Has Back
To Wall

Turned back by aging muscles,
poor health and unbeatable rivals in
his second quest for Olympic honors
at Paris early this month, Joie Ray,
of the Illinois Athletic Club, the
most consistent miller that ever
trod the American tracks faces the
possibility of further humiliation
by the loss Of the national A.. A. U.
title at his favorite distance at the
coming national games at Newark,
N. ].
In winning the mile title eight
times since 1914 with a grand av-
erage Of four minutes and eighteen
seconds, to the dot, across this re-
markable stretch Of victories, Chesty
Joie performed a feat which even
the accomplishments of Paavo
Nurmi, Ffnland's supereman Of the
cinderepath do not overshadow. No
miller in athletic history Of any
country the world over has ever
shown such deadly consistency,
year in and year out.
But the tricolor veteran is human
after all. He has just begun to
retrograde as they all do. The first
indication that Ray was ION the
slide" was in evidence last winter
when he came East to run a Sc
rieS of mediocre races. The ath.
letic fans were utterly amazed when
Joie took the count time after time,
running but one first-class race all
winter-his 4:18 mile against Lloyd
Hahn in the Hunter Mile at the
Boston A. A. game last February.
At the time It was said that Ray
was not going well because he was
not forcing his condition, but sub.
sequent events have proved that

Quick hitting is q very necessary

travels, the more successful the ex

that a shorter stroke on the Uphill

Answer-Taking the club back as
far as you take it is overswinging,
unless every other part of the swing
is correct. Only a finished golfer can
risk taking the club back that far,
and he does it only occasionally,
when a long carry is absolutely es-
sential. Overswinging usually re.
suits from reaching upward with the
arms, or lifting the club. The club
Is swung back, never lifted up. 1t
lifts itself Of it's own accord. The
arms should move in unison with
the body. If you will make a swing
with a golf bail held in each arm
pit during the entire swing you will
demonstrate what Is meant by keep.
ing the arms in unison with the
body. If you overswtng try using
a three-quarter swing, which prob
ably will give you about the right
back swing.
