the cost of buying leather. The
stranger pulled out thick roll of

amount oyerpaid. A day or two
later a secretary appeared at the
shop with the news that the king
was incensed at the refund, adding
affably that it would have been
all the same If the balance had

Wills will climb into the ring at Eb'

The battle marks the first Of the
three big heavyweight attractions of

Wills is something Of a favorite. The
giant Harlem negro says his small
hands, which often gave him trouble,
have been greatly improved by nine

Wills will have to knock the Bound

putting green's since he broke into
the limelight; yet at one time he
was shooting around IS as an aver

An analysis Of his game showed
him that on from 10 to IL green's

put him in the championship class.
Result-Ouimet began studying

stance. That the club should be
held by the tips of the thumbs and
fingers, as they gave touch. That
the thumbs should be held down
the shaft. as that helped accuracy.
That the ball should be stroked on

overspin and caused it to shoot
