CnaC ne loSC all Teellng OF power.
For him and for others who are
having the same difficulty I would
say that the main cause of their
trouble is in not getting enough
pivot or enough turn Of the body
and shoulders around to the right.
The direct result of this failure is
that there is too much of a pull on
the left arm from the shoulder
down. The strain there is what
causes the cramped feeling and
the lack of power.
The shoulder must be got
more around. Bracing with the
right leg will prevent swaying.
Let the left knee bend in toward
the right and also forward to-
ward the ball. To put it a
little differently. keep the right
side steady and allow the left
to turn toward the right with
the right acting as an anchor
until the shoulders are practi-
calIy at right angles to the line
Of play.
Tne left heel should be lifted off
the ground, but quite bit of the
weight must be kept on the big
toe and the bali Of the left foot. BY
following these instructions it will
be found that the left arm can be
swung around without any cramped
feeling.
Another golfer, also a beginner.
came to me and said that he had
just taken up the game and wanted
TO know whether or not he should
purchase a full set of clubs and
practice with all of them or start
out with only one or two.
1t doesn't matter much
whether he purchases one or
a dozen. / would recommend,
however, that he start out
with two, say a mashie and a
putter, and begin with the
short strokes. 1t is my belief
that the best way to start is
to play strokes i'm which the
club is not taken back more
than waist high. BY doing
this the beginner is able to
lay the foundations for a good
short game and is less liable
TO get into faulty ways.
It is best, too. not to attempt
70 learn golf without some help.
II there isn't good professional
available there generally is some
good player who can set down
the fundamentals. 1t is important
that in starting out the right prin.
clpes be followed instead of the
wrong ones. Once you get started

One OF the outstanding innovations
In the Illustrious New Chrysler ~72"
cars. which were presented to the
public a few weeks z and are said
hy company officials 20 be rolling up
an unprecedented sales record. il the
use Of "Tungtite" pistons, employed
in this model for the first time on
Inyar Strut piStons, the engine de-
velopnent recently perfected and an
nounced by Chrysler engineers.
This combination Of pistons and
rings il said to be one OF the most
important steps taken IN the automo-
bile industry during recent years to-
ward perfection In internal combus-
tiOn engines.
Describing the new combination,
Chrysler engineers point out that the
conventional piston equipment in
cludes two or three compression
rings and an oil control ring. These
serve a double purpose. They pre-
vent leakage Of compression created
by the explosions Of gasoline vanor
in the combustion chamber, The
source Of the power impulse that
drives the piston down. They also

ring, practically double the ring sur

the new combination brings added
assurance Of satisfactory perform
ance, particularly in the Red Head
engine with which Chrysler led the
way this summer into the new high
compression era Of motoring.
One Of the important features is
said TO lie better control OF heat.

designed in such a tanner that an
increased bulk of aluminium alloy
promotes quicker and more complete
dissipation or heat absorbed BY the
heads 70 the enlarged ring surface.

the law regarding the use Of lights,

board motor craft at Point Isabel or
elsewhere on the coast, is requested.
Every boat equipped with a motor,
irrespective Of whether IL Is an
cupboard or not, fails within the
scope Of this law. Many operators
Of tiny outboard-powered craft have
been apprehended and fined.
IL is not necessary To have lights
aboard between the hours of sun
rise and sunset.
The pilot rules specified must be
IN duplicate. They q be obtained
from the nearest Board Of Steam

No operators, captains or en-

used exclusively for pleasure and
never carrying freight or passengers
for hire.
The size and placement or lights
and the kinds OF fire extinguishers

which accompanies the Pilot Rules.
The law applies 20 every power
