the second prize, passed out of the
picture on the tenth green.
Mrs. L. H. Hedrick, reaching the

the less skilled players to compete on
an even basis with the more seasoned
players.
A rummage tournament is planned

Bob Macdonald, one Of the great
golf teachers of this country, and
George Duncan, occupying simi-
lar position in British circles, have
somewhat different ideas about the
golf swing and get somewhat differ
ent results. Macdonald gets long
tee shots. So does Duncan, but
they are lower in trajectory.
There is little good in presenting
the theories Of each Of these mas
ters by way of argument. The
tendency would be to confuse the
reader. The point I wish to bring
out is that Macdonald has an ortho-
dox American swing, hands and
club head reaching a plane at right
angles to the line Of flight just as
the club face reaches the ball. That
gives the ball plenty of ride or
carry.
Duncan, on the other hand, If
moving pictures do not lie, gets his
hands in slightly ahead Of the face
of his club at impact. Result is a
slightly lower ball from the tee.
Duncan sways a bit on his SWING,
Macdonald does not. From which
the average golfer can draw rather
quick deductions, namely, that Mac
Donalds form in hitting is far less
complicated and therefore better
and easier to follow.

BOXING BOUTS

About 2200 people, including a no
ticeable number of ladies-the larg-
est crowd ever known to attend box
ing bouts in lower Delaware-were
present at the Milford arena on last
Wednesday night, to witness the best
bouts ever had there. These bouts,
conducted under splendid manage
ment in a very orderly manner, were
full of action throughout. In the
\ main bout of the evening, Soldier
Green, of Fort du Pont, had shade
the better in his four rounds with
Jack Ketchel, of Leiperville. A very
lively bout was the semi-windup be-
tween Billy Angelo, of Leiperville,
and Watson Finch, of Camden, N. j.,
: who was substituting for Benny
Lonsky. Angelo had by far the bet
ter of the bout. Kid Dunn of Mil
ford and Harry Martin of Dover put
I'D one of the most actively exciting
four round bouts ever seen in Mil
ford. with the decision slightly in
. favor of Dunn. Kid Dick of Chester,
substituting for Mickey Russell,
knocked out Jack Belts of Milford
in the second round of their four
round bout. Kid White of Dover
substituting for Tommy Washington
and Kid Brown of Milford substitute
ed for Kid Kanky and these two
fought lively three-round bout with
Brown getting the popular decision.
The program for next week promises
to be Just as full of action, with Bat

economic and social significance o.
safety methods in the elimination o1
serious and fatal accidents.
Any industrial plant in Delaware
agreeing to furnish monthly reports
shall be eligible to compete in the
contest which will close December
81, 1927. The Delaware Safety Coun-
Gil has given the contestant defini-
tions of standard factors in acci-
dents, as. follows:
"Only those accidents are counted
which cause death, permanent in
jury (such as loss of finger) or
loss of time beyond the day or shift
during which the accident occurred.
No matter what time of day the
worker may be injured, if he returns
to work at the start of his next reg
ular shift, the accident is not count
ed unless such accident is a partial
permanent nature. If, however, he
does not return to work at the start
of his next regular shift, the acci-
dent is counted and the man is char
ged with the loss of a full day or
more.
Continuing the rules state, "for
temporary injuries count the actual
number of days lost. For purposes of
comparison, Sunday is not counted
at all, but holidays and Saturdays
should be counted as full days be-
cause in some plants and depart
ments the men work all day Satur-
day and what may be regarded as a
holiday in one industry, may not be
observed in other industries"
A point system will be used and
prize awards will be made to the
winning plants at the termination of
the contest. w. d. Smith, manager
of the Delaware Safety Council,
on the contest said:
Contests such as this make the
employee recognize the value of
safety cooperation between himself
and his employer for their mutual
good. Educate the man to know that
accidents to himself, or any of his
fellow workers, depress the morale
and efficiency of the whole, and he
will be a safety enthusiast"
