However, no one is taking any
thing for granted, least Of all Har.
ward. 1t has come back inagnifi.
Gently, after q series Of early sea-
son defeats under Horween, its new
coach, and today 1t stands as a
logical favorite because it has the
better line and possibly the most
consistent system Of scoring. Still,
Princeton ever has been the sur.
prise team Of football, and 1t would
surprise no one II It surprised
everyone, 30 to speak. today.
That, in fact, has been Prince
tons habit Of late years. Since
the war IL has been beaten only
once by Harvard and even then
the latter failed to cross the Tiger
goal line. Most OF the time Prince
ton has been the short choice In
the betting, and has been salts
fled to be such for the sake Of
psychology.
Bill Roper uses that commodity
in the dressing room annually TO
send berserk Tiger teams out to
play above and beyond the collec.
tive head. But this year. psychology
would seem to be against< him, for
Harvard has the thought OF those
lost two disasters to sustain 1t and
that should be enough. 1t Is TAR
from a pleasant thought.
The matter of physical fitness also
is against Princeton. It has not
had the use Of Jake Slagle, Its great
triple threat, since the Washington
and Lee game early in the season,
and is is said that neither SlaEle
nor Williams, another good running
back, will start today's game. It
they don't Princeton will be handi-
capped, for there is only one Slagle
at Princeton and all too few any
other place.
The day is bright and cold and
fair and a capacity crowd Of
$4,000 is expected. Harvard rules
the favOrite at odds Of 10 10 8 and
justly so.
Princeton hardly can expect to get
the call after losing to the Navy,
playing a tie with Washington and
Lee and barely pulling out a one
point decision over Lehigh. This
record is typical of Princeton sur
prise years, however. It likes to
flash up out of nowhere.
Whether it will be able to remain
with Harvard and it's newly awaken.
ed regeneration from years of re-
cent defeats remains to be seen. The
latter has an excellent line and o
coterie of shifty backs, and with its
new spirit should win.

that tackled him squarely went
down hard and some OF them got

healthy gains with sgularity.
There was another newcomer TO
the Central team, one Rodgers. who
proved his right to a regular place.
Rodgers performance at guard
made the Central line appear to
better advantage than in any other
contest. In the early stages the
big Business backs got through Il
with fair success, but as the battle
wore on the Stenographers wore

tighter.
Business was not outclassed. In
fact, but for one marked weakness
it might have won or at least tied.
It had no efficient punter.

THEIR
ARC.


ball, and for that reason / try to
get them approximately on that
line. I have frequently played OK
tremely good golf by following the
one golden rule Of imagining my
hands following the clubhead to the
ball.
The action Of the hands at the
ball when the ball is met is the
thing. Herein lies an elementary
feature Of the game which should
be taught carefully. 1t is hard
to see what the hands do at the
time the bal Is hit.
It Is one sure thing that there is
some very quick work to be done
by the hands in the successful golf
shot. Personally, / think that in the
successful shot the contact of ball
and clubhead Is telegraphed to the
player, mad the hands pause in their
arc long enough to give a crack-the.
whip effect to the clubhead for an
inch or two, and then they, tho
hands, move forward as if they lad
not stopped.
1t doesn't make very much differ
ence whether the hands are exactly
on this perpendicular line, but they
have to De III position where they
can comfortably stop and then go on
as one motion.
1 feel that If the hands go ahead
without this almost imperceptible
stop the shot will lose evenness of
flight and distance. The hands
should be gripping The club firmly,
for the angle of the club face must
not be changed y thirty-second Of
an inch during this action.
Some persons believe that dur
ing the course OF u swing a player
should have sensation of holding
tighter. either with left or right
hand, but IL has been my expert
ence that both hands should have
the sensation Of equal firmness in
gripping, for IL one stops either
hand against the other the ALL
essential maintenance of the right
angle of the club face will be de.
strOyed when the ball is hit.
Remember that the hands must
flow smoothly into the follow
through after this action at the ball.
