With Prep Stars

LOS ANGELES. Dec. 27.-(P-A
squad of 25 rangy young Texans,
footballers of Central high school,

with considerable enthusiasm
through a strenuous two hours work
out on the coliseum turf here yes

Tie Panthers showed little evi-
dence Of having just completed a
two and r half day train ride. but

not altogether pleased with their
showing and announced that he was
going TO send them through t.ao
practice sessions today.
"All Of the players are in fire
shape as far as the lack or injuries
is concerned Winkleman said. "but
they need work and plenty Of il 70
shake those train legs Of theirs and
get used ~ this new climate and a.
mosphcre."
The Texans uncofked ar interest
ing array Of plays, and rcrsrmed
like a well drilled aggregation. The
impressive part Of their practice was
the way they tossed n football
around. Winkleman is a believer in
the use of Rugby pass. and he has
about five backs who can rifle the
rigskin with proficiency.

Glenna's Weight
ON Right Heel

II is no trick at all for Glenna
Collett to drive 225 yards, She hits
a fine distance for girl and Is en-
abled To do so solely because she is
balanced throughout her swing.
Note her at the top OF backswlng.
Straight left arm. Weight well over
TO the right. But note especially the
fact that this weight Is back on
her right heel. Why?
II it we're not she would be tend
ing to sway forward. And as her
downswlng started she would tend
more to fall forward toward the
ball. To correct this falling forward
motion many golfers pull their
bodies back as the club goes through.
This pulls the club face across the
ball and imparts not only a slice.
but causes one to keep his or her
weight out OF the shot You pull
IL away from the ball instead OF let
ting 1t flow into the shot.
BE dead certain this Is not fault
of yours. When you reach the top
of the backswing by a slow move
ment back of the club, let the
weight settle more upon the heel OF
the right foot than upon the toe.
IL means better balance, That Is
what you must have.

such an experienced and homogeneous
team as Tilden and Hunter, appeared
