Barnes Defines
What Is Putting

Although Jim Barnes putter failed
him in the recent p. G.. A. cham
pionShip, it has carried him to vic
tory in about every golf fixture of
Importance open to professionals.
Jim looks upon putting as a most
delicate art. He compares it to the
threading of needle, which is not a
good simile for male golfers, al
though they could better appreciate
1t if they sewed on a few loose but
tons.
Barnes says it's a right-hand
stroke, with the right forearm braced
on the right thigh to insure steadi-
ness. Jim gets down over his puts,
too. Crouches with his weight car
ried by feet comfortably braced so
his body cannot move. His eyes are
directly over the ball, so they can see
the line it is to take.

a second crop Of cotton this season,
farmers say.
Many growers in this vicinity are

become a reality as the result Of this
rain. In many fields along the high
ways both north and south Of Edin-

and a few acreages Of the plant are
showing several half opened bolls of
the new crop.
