A.A.U. GIVES
HOFF LIE

BOSTON, July William G.
Prout, chairman of the foreign re-
iations committee of the Amateur
Athletic Union of America, has
branded as false Charley Hoff s
statement that he did not kn%w
why his permit to compete in
America had been revoked.
Prout' declared that Hoff has
been told the reasons, and added
that the Norwegian pole vaulter's
threat to bring legal proceedings
against the A. A. u. did not merit
= reply.
the manner in which the Norwegian
athlete broke the world record
piecemeal-an inch or so at a
tinne-each time he performed in
this country, and wound up by
declaring that he wished Hoff
would ''go back home"
Hoff knows why he is not per.
mlitted to compete i'm any more
"A. "A. II. sanctioned meets, and
when he says he does not he is
fempOrfZing. His threat to bring
suit against the A. A. u. does
not mean y thing" declared
Pr0ut.
Mr.. Prout's outburst follows on
the heels of charges by Hoff that
the abrupt termination OF his per-
init to compete in America after his
refusal to take part in a meet in
San Francisco that he was being
barred without reason.
Hoff is a elean-cut college-bre
man with fairly wide business ex-
perience," said Mr.. Prout. 1.-The
a. A. u, favorabIy impressed by
his appearance, took particular pains
TO protect him from any slurs that
might be cast upon his standing
while he is in America.
The foreign relations committee
attended to him what it considered
good advice, including an admoni-
ton against the utilization of a
manager or representative. Hoff,
however, has retained his brother
tn-law throughout his American
tour as his representative.
The A. A. u. feels that there is
no need for an amateur athlete to
be travelling about the country with
q representative and especially in
view of the advice given him by
the committee"

I believe in grouping these clubs
together. My idea is to convince
golfers that just because the head
of the club is iron is no reason
why it should be played differently
than one which has a wooden head.

nothing else than bring this forcib,y

answer is that I do not. arm
obliged to describe my method of
play, however, because most golfers
do.
This article has to do with all
clubs supposed to get distance less
than a brassie and more than a
midfron shot, so il you use a club
by another name than ! describe,
this instruction will apply. These
are the clubs which are used least
of all, especially IL you play 80 or
under. Since, of the clubs under
consideration, / carry only spoon,
my instructions will be for the uses
of that clubs in the play of the
shots demanded.
The grip is the finger one, and
never in the palms, with thumbs
down the shaft, but Orgy very

it. The hands should be close
together so that they cannot work

should be confidently firm but not
tight, the club balancing easily

There never mas a smoke 50
pleasing as Camel

Camel quality has been rewarded
with the greatest demand, the larg-
est sales any cigarette ever enjoyed.
Since smoking began, there was
never such a growing preference
as for Camels. Camel rewards its
friends with enjoyment that never
ends, for Camels never tire the
taste, simply never leave a cigaretty
after-taste.
If you have never tried Camels,
if you do not know how good, how
satisfying a cigarette can be, we
invite you to try them now for
the utmost in smoking pleasure.
Have the best that's made-we
invite YOU
