That it is no longer necessary for
young American musicians to go
abroad for the final touches of per-
fection in their art has been demon
strated again in the recent remark
able debut of Alton Jones in New
York. Coming on the evening with
the ovation given to Lawrence Tib-
bett, another strikingly gifted young
American. at the Metropolitan Opera
House, the event was another link
in the evidence which is gradually
convincing American audiences that
their own native musical talent is
fully equal in gifts and attainments
to the best from abroad.

ance being in the form of a recital

being a special childrens perform
ance, at which the tiny tots of and

numbers from the evening program.
Both Miss Gardiner and Mr.. Tcher-
nikoff will dance in several special
numbers at each performance. The

your hands to the three-foot
the more glorious achievements
in golf, for a player can culti-
vate the proper taking back of
the left hand at this point. If
he accomplishes it, he will never
have any more difficulty with
direction. AS. matter of fact,
as you elongate and parallel
back direction line, you will
find yourself very properly
little stiff, but you should not
take your hands so far that you
get unduly stiff.
At the end of this stiffness
break your wrist quickly and
let your hands out q little
farther back. This action of
the hands, paralleling the back
direction line should become
second nature to the expert
golfer. Your upward arc should
be as much of an upright swing
as possible, and shouZ not
wabble. The ascent and descent
should be over the same paths.
Feel the hands reaching away
out on the back stroke. In
using your brassie, bend more
on the back stroke than with
the driver. The correct posi-
tion of the left arm at the back
is almost straight. If it is not,
you will find your swing is a
wiggly one and you are almost
sure to get an uneven flight OF
the ball.
The left arm should not be
stiff, however. At the top Of
the back stroke the right upper
arm is in, and with the left
upper arm forms a sort of a
take-off near the body of the
downward stroke. believe in
the independent movement of
the arms; but | also believe
that the stroke can be too
much arms. Don't lean the
body forward when the arms
go up.

Al Foreman, who in recent fights

They should go away back,
too, but never into the position
where the clubhead makes a
hitless sweep. 1t is the natural
tendency for the left shoulder
to fall forward as the clubhead
goes back, and you must avoid
getting this shoulder in the
way. 1t should wait for the
downward stroke to begin. This
dipping of the left shoulder for
ward is emphasized as you get
the break of the wrists at the
end of the back stroke, and you
must be sure to keep the left
shoulder high and still, until the
hit is made.

If pitching is your ambition, at

he kept trying, however, and last

that there was no stopping him.
Actually, we in the big league
dbn't throw as many curves as
pitchers in the minors. If I had
relied heavily on curves, would
not have lasted eighteen years IN

You don't need a lot of curves.
Very few big leaguers use more
than one curve, fast ball, and a
slow ball, or change of pace. The
oatcurve is most popular among
