When the maker fashions an in

put in the curves and the swells
and the length and the width
just any old way, so that the
thing looks like a violin.
The same thing applies with
the golf club. There are many
clubs masquerading as golf clubs

Kreisler chins his violin he does

AS the club is taken to the top Of

you were to stretch rubber.band.
You haul back until it reaches a
point where it can 90 no farther
and 1t is at that point that it
snaps back with the greatest force.
There must be tension at the top
of the swing, else you won't be

to say that you should tie yourself

that, but you must get the feeling
that you are going to tear loose.

1908 Babe Ruth All-America base
hall contest. She wants to go 10
the world series as a guest OF The
Washington Times.
II isn5t so much the team she
selected as her list Of explanatory
yeasons that is striking. She gave
sound baseball arguments for her
cl,oices. IN this respect, she handed

SIifer. This West Virginia maid has
certainly demonstrated she knows
her baseball onions.
How about reading Miss Slifer,s
entire letter and then give the little
girl 4 hand for her familiarity with
the diamond game. Here's her let.

I like to see the right knee slightly
bent. for 1t gives one the impression
of the stance being a comfortable
one. Moreover it tends to take away
the feeling Of strain that il 50 evil
dent the moment some players step
UP to the ball. and it seems also to
indicate power. As the club is tassn
back on the upstroke there Is per-
ceptible strengthening out of the leg
and at the top of the swing 1t Is
quite rigid, indicating that the
weight has been transferred.
Now for the wrists. The wrists,
in the making of proper golf shot,
have swing Of their own, swing
that is separate and distinct from
the swing Of the arms, yet a part
Of it.

Unless the wrists do what they
are supposed to do In the back

to do their work on the down
