We asked Bob Macdonald what
was the commonest fault of golf
ers, lie said "slicing' Where
upon Bob produced his new book
to illustrate the causes and cures.
One of his explanations hit my
game right ON the head-the in
ability to unwind the pivot that
cocks one for the shot For some
reason or other we fail to transfer
our weight from the right to the
left foot on the downswing, with
the result that at contact we are
in a position similar to the player
pictured on the right If you'll
look below him. you'll see why the
! contact from this position drags
the clubhead across the ball and
slices it.
There are two reasons for get
ting into this faulty position. One
is giving a lurch forward on the
downswing in order to hit hard.
Down goes the right shoulder, and
ones weight is tossed onto the
right leg. The other is the player
in his anxiety to avoid slicing
does his utmost 10 bring his club
around to the left in order to hit
the ball in that direction. That's
when you get the worst slices
of all.
The cure is to start the club
down with a pull by the left arm.
That force causes the body to
swing into the stroke at the right
time.

| handed boys who have had TO fight
their way-this is the material that
is making for intercollegiate athletic
success these days.
All of which is food for thought and
thoughtful discussion, if nothing else.
An athletic director of a college
which has bumped against Notre
Dame elevens occasionally in recent
years encountered friend of Knute
Rockne's at a gathering of men in
terested in sports.
"How does knute feel about the
new rules, especially the shift tim
ing?" asked this director.
HE feels all right" was the reply.
"IIe says he is we'll satisfied
Good heavens" the director placed
his hands to his head in mock tragedy.
What has he got up his sleeve now?'
Well, as matter of fact, from all
the writer can gather he hasn't any
thing new up his sleeve.
lie has a pretty definite idea, which
is not shared by him alone, that when
the shift is worked as well as Notre
Dame annually works it, that is when
the elements of timing and unified
effort are present in high dgeree. the
shift will be about as formidable as
il ever was.
There seems to be an idea in some
quarters that Notre Dame elevens
hahitually beat the swapping of the
ball This they did not do. but, like
all elevens that have taken up this
method of backf1eld play, there have
been times when the players have
been in motion.
But the fact of players being in mo-
tion did not account for Notre Danes
average gains. The great ma jority of
times ground was gained when the
rule against not being in motion was
absolutely observed.
SO Rockne sees no reason why
ground cannot still be gained under
the new rules and the chances are
that practical tests next Fall viii
demonstrate that RoclIne is right.
In the symposium on coaches opin-
ions on the new rules there should
be added the views of William W.
Roper, Princeton's resourceful coach.

will not change the game in any ap-
preciable degree.
He believes that the defense viii be

As to shift plays" he says, 1.-The
timing restriction on the shift will
have tendency TO stop plays of this
sort and in any event to destroy their

COLLEGE MINES TO PLAY
THREE GAMES TOMORROW

Three attractive ball games are
scheduled for local college mines to-
morrow. all TO be decided on diamonds
here. Georgetown will play host to
Princeton. Catholic University will en-
terrain Boston College and University
of Maryland viii have Pennsylvania
as a guest.
Georgetown was to take part in Two
games today, the only Tits carded for
coIlegiates here. Pennsylvania was to
visit the Hilltop this afternoon follow
ing a game there earlier in the day be-
tween Georgetown and Boston College.
Hitting Edmonston brislSly during
the six innings he was on the mound
and profiting by Georgetowns medi-
ocre fielding, Penn State took the
measure of the Blue and Gray, 8 TO g.,
yesterday on the Hilltop. The Nittany
Lions counted FIVE runs in the first
inning. Georgetown braced in the late
stages. Loughman, who went to the
firing line for Edmonston, held the
invaders TO a lone bingle in the final
three innings and the Blue and Gray
showed across three tallies while hold
ing their guests runless. Home runs
were made by Singley and Lesko for
the visitors and Mclean for the home
nine.
In a game featured by a bang-up
pitching duel between Byrne for Cath
olic University and Lambert for Syra-
cuse and fine fielding on the part of
both mines, the Cardinals turned back
the Orange yesterday at Brookland,
3 to 0. Catholic University scored
twl runs in the second inning and an
other in the fifth as the result of COM
bining hits with its opponents errors.
Lafayette, conqueror of Georgetown
last week, added another victim to it's
list hereabouts yesterday, when it took
University of Maryland to camp, 8 to j,
at College Park. Charley Morrison, the
Eastonians' hurler, held the Old Line
batters to just two hits. 1t was Mary
lands first defeat in six starts this
season. Wilbur Snyder pitched by no
means a poor game for the College
Parkers despite that he was nicked
for a dozen bingles. Except in the
fifth inning, when the visitors counted
two runs on four hits, he managed to
keep the safeties well scattered.
George Washington rif1emen today
boast a victory over Army. the first
the West Pointers have suffered since
1923 and the second they have sus.
tanned since they have been represent

and the rich young man, whatever

subject themselves to the rigors OF

This was a statement made to the
writer by highly specialized Uni
versity athletic coach, who has had
wide experience in intercollegiate ath-
Ietics and has always been deeply in
terested in the human side of the
game. He said:
"Boys who have been reared in
luxury. who have been shielded by
their parents from the hard knocks
that come to boys not SO favorably
situated, have no love for foot ball or
even base ball. They do not care to
incur the bumps and bruises or to
subject themselves to the discipline
involved, and those who are willing
TO do so are moved not by any love
of the rigorous games but through
sense of duty or OF personal pride.
Called Harvards Trouble.
'"The boy who goes in for these
sports whole-heartediy and with the
greater efficiency is the one who has
been ruggedly reared. who has had
TO fight his way and revels in foot ball
because of his sheer love of action.
"Harvard's trouble today he went
on, lis because lots of the students up
there, boys from Groton, st. Mark s,
ST. Paul's and other crack schools,
don't really want to play foot ball. In
lesser degree there is the same diff

Princeton, however. has been getting
more poor boys upon her teams than
her two great rivals and this accounts
for the success of the Tigers against
them.
Bob Zupplle has said that the col.
lege men who can afford to wear coon
skin coats are sitting in the stands
these days and the boys who cannot
afford them are playing the game. He
never said anything truer than that.
