Hit When Club
| Meets Ball,
Not Before
Sy Charles (Chickl Evans. j

By Charles (Chick) Evans, Jr.
1t seems a far cry from the gaso.
lilo engine to the golf swing. yet
the principles are the same in both
cases. The gasoline engine works
upon the principle of a charge or
mixture of gasoline being exploded
by spark at the correct mechanical
instant, thereby driving a piston
which In turn drives the crank
shaft.
Let us suppose the ball to be
piston, the cIubhead the gasoline
mixture and yourself the spark
which ignites or explOdes this
charge at the proper moment. If
you do not explode this charge at
the proper instant. the force of
the blO;- will be impaired.
Be sure to hit when your club
head reaches the ball. not before.
The ball will not run away. BE sure
The Washington times., 1926-10-22

to hit into the imaginary line and
not to fall back from the ball: fall
forward if anything. It is the timing
of the golf swing that puts distance
into the drive.
That explains why a little fellow
can get up to a tee and oftentimes
drive a ball a hundred yards further
than the big man who swings as
though he had a personal grudSe
against the ball and is about to
send it into oblivion.
1t is nothing but the timing Of a
golf swing and it will paw each ID
every golfer to be very careful and
to develop this feature of his swing
b. fore he tries to outdrive those
who already have acquired the
knack Of timing their shots.

IS
LOST To
gu.
BY Louis A. Dougher

six former Maryland University
stars are among the Quantico
Marines who will take the field to-
morrow against Catholic University
In the third game Of their series.
Behind the line are Jack McQuade
and Ed Pugh. In the line are
Caleb Bailey at center. Jock ough
at guard and Ralph Lanigan and
Joe Burger at tackle. All six Will
probably be seen in action before
the final whistle sounds on Wash
ingtons most important game OF
the week.
McQuade played fullback for
Maryland for four years and 1t
was his brilliant work against
Pennsylvania and Yale that gave
him recognition all over the
country. He is a powerful kicker.
a good runner with the ball and
q spectacular line-plunger.
Ed Pugh, member Of a Washing
ton football family of note. is a
fleet footed ball carrier whose work
was largely responsible for the
Marines triumph over c. U. last
year. After starring on school
gridirons in the Capital, Pugh went
to Maryland and repeated his
ftashy style Of running. With the
Marines ne is playing at top form
this season and will be closely
watched by the Brooklanders to-
morrow.
MaryIanders in the line are
also players of real class. Bailey,
HOugh and Burger were all.SOuth
Atlantic stars in their college
days. They are playing fine foot
ball this year for the Marines.
The Leathernecks will be without
the services Of two stars in Willis
Ryckman. halfback. and Bob Stock,
end They were injured in the
triumph over Lehigh last week.
However. Coach Tom Ready has a
flock of excellent second string
players in his squad and the
Marines are confident of trcuncing
c. U. for the third straight time.
These two elevens met for the
first time in 1924. The Marines
were then one of the most power
full teams in the country, winning
every game played except that with
Vanderbilt which ended, 13 to 13.
Naturally, they were too much for
c. u. and won. SO to 0.
Losing many Of their stars last
year, the Marines won four games,
lost three and We're tied once. One
Of their victories was over G.. u.
Ed Pugh running wild and enabling
the sea soldiers to triumph, 10 to 6.
This year the Brooklanders are
hopeful of turning the tables on the
= Marines. Captain Mayer, a brilliant
end, is not available because of a
broken hand, but Coach McAuliffe
banks on Bill Shields for that
position.
Ray DuFOur, who has been
playing a smart game at guard,
will not be i'm tOmOrrOw's lineup.
The sudden death of his mother
took him to his home in HaverhiII,
Mass, yesterday and he may be
absent for several weeks.
Today only the lightest Of signal
drills are sch 4duled for the District
elevens. Catholic University is about
set for the Marines and the same
goes for George Washington on the

antville went down to the Wine
City ball team at Egg Harbor,
Sunday, and lost it's tie for first
place in the South Jersey league
to Jeffries, which team won both
of it's contests over the weekend
1t was just case of hard luck,
Sunday. Although Egg Harbor
won, Is, it was passes granted
by Herman Leipe, and not series
of hits, which counted the runs.
The Harborites managed to hit
when they had a man on bases,
while the Regulars hit only when
the hits didn't mean an awful lot.
The Wine City lads collected
the large total of three hits dur
ing their innings at bat, while the
Regulars hit for total of 10 safe
ties. The winning team scored
it's runs in the second inning,
when they showed four counters
over. One in the fourth, fifth and
eighth put the game on ice.
The Regulars made a desperate
attempt to win, scoring two runs
in the ninth, but failed to equal
the Harborites score.

Request Of Legionanes

Mainland Post, American Leg
Ion, has asked the Pleasantville
Common Council to build a Ne
mortal building on the site owned
by the Post on First street. The
site was purchased few months
ago as the result of a drive. The
majority of the amount raised
came from eX-Service men.
There is provision in the
State law for memorials for ex-
Service men and the men of the
Mainland feel that they are en-
titled to consideration. The Post
is building up and it's member
ship is increasing.
Plans for the memorial have
been drawn and call for a build
ing two stories in height, about
AZ feet wide and so feet deep.
1t is proposed that the first floor
be devoted to the needs of the
police recorder and police head
quarters. The second floor would
be given over to meeting place
for the ex-Service men. The orig
inal plans for the building have
been revised and economies prac-
ticed. It is estimated the cost
of the building would be about
$4,000.
Members of Common Council
are fully appreciative of the hero
ic efforts of the ex-Service men
on behalf of their country. Coun-
cilmen point out that the ex-Ser-
vice men are most active in their
various occupations in doing
something for the town and that
they are highly desirable and
