back swing has been accumu-
lated. Therefore, your first ac-
ton forward is through your
middle body. You step or glide
forward with the direction line
not toward the ball-with your
hips, until your left heel strikes
the ground. Meantime, the club
begins to swing back. Your
wrists are drawn back-"cocked."
AS the club swings downward,
by all means avoid eagerness or
hurry to hit the ball. Remem-
Der, you are to swing-not hit.
So with the club descending,
make your hands travel directly
toward your left knee-as if
they were to just Craze this
knee as they swung through.
Or another method that's good
is: Have the idea that you will
slap the ball with the lower
side of your left hand. Keep
your wrists cooked" as long as
you can.

AuCh always pays a
part in these open championships,
but this year its role is to be
greatly magnified If l am any judge
of a golf course.
The Winged Foot links are very,
very harsh. / doubt whether there
is a sterner test in the whole coun-
try. 1 wouldn't be surprised if the
winning score mounted as high as
800.
However. much depends on
the weather. If the days are
clear and hot, the boys may do
fairly well; but, IL 1t is wet and
the links are softened by the
rain. watch out for distress sig
nails.
are going to play mischief with
most of US. The carpets are not
only small but billowy in their con-
struction.
The feature of the Winged Foot
greens are their uniformity. They
have been patterned rather alike
for both long and short shots.
Now a green that can be reached
with a niblick, or mashie-niblick,
or spade-mashie should be smaller
than those where the approach is a
No. iron or a spoon. 1t has been
the custom to give the golfer a
fairly large target to shoot at with
the longer clubs. But Winged Foot
has not followed this custom. Not
only are its green's small but they
are tightly and deeply trapped.
Sheer skill, therefore, Is not the
golfers only need at this tough lay
out. He must hope for fortune s
favor. 1t cannot be expected that
man can consistently keep his
long second shots hanging on the
pin. To do that he would need to
be a master indeed He need only
be slightly off the line to find
trouble in large doses.
George Won Elm has suggested
the way to play Winged Foot
is mostly with the old bean.
The man who uses his head on
every shot along with his woods
and irons will fare better than
he who boldly goes for the pin.
That expresses the essence of the
great duIdISQL d0F4CCs 1OOA sc
says it would be far better to play
the second shots short and then
chip to the pin than it would be
to go courageously for the flags
and court skies and sevens. Per-
haps Won Elm is right. But douot
that his suggestion will be followed
even by himself.
/ can't imagine any golfer playing
so cautiously in AN open champion
ship. The stake is too big to risk
losing it through temporizing meth.
DDS. The spirit of adventure is much
too strong, even among the most
conservative, to permit of much
safety-first play. Won Elm is a bold,
daring golfer with plenty of nerve,
and IN bet all the beans in Boston
that he'll be banging for the pin at
nearly every opportunity.
Bill Burke played around Winged
Foot an entire week and couldn't
do better than rs. Bobby Jones in
his only practice round struck off a

BACK
As c. j.
! COACH
,a AAAAlH
By Juno Kinerk

Herb Kopf will be back as
end coach for Georgetown s
varsity football team again this
fall, although there was some
question whether the former
Washington and jefferson star
would return, it was learned
from a reliable source.
Kopf came to the Hilltop as end
coach in 1925 and has been the in
structor for the wingmen since.
Kopf graduated from the law school
earlier this month and it was feared
that he would abandon the coaching
game to take up the practice of his
profession exclusively.
In connection with Kopf's return
1t also was learned that Georgetown
authorities more than likely will
abandon their training site at Wild.
wood, N. J. This does not mean
that the Fiilltoppers will not adhere
to their annual custom of preseason
training in cooler cliines than pro,
yided in Washington the last Of
August and the first weeks OF Sep
tenber.
The reason for abandoning
Wildwood, as contemplated. Is to
be nearer Atlantic City SO that
the members of the grid squad
will not have to travel nearly
100 miles to indulge In the daily
scrimmages with Temple UIi-
Yersity, as has been their wont
i'm the past.
Although Athletic Director Lou
Little has left washington for the
summer, an official announcement
as to the selection of new training
kfta probably will be made in the not
so-distant future. There is nothing
iInfavorable about the Wildwood
camp except for the inconvenience
and disadvantage in travelling that IS
necessitated, so the new camp Will
be selected with the view in mind OF
overcoming this handicap.
In addition to KEPT, Coach Little
will have his whole old guard back
IN the harness as assistants. Mike
Palm, former Penn State star, will
be on the job again as backfield in
structor, and Johnny DaGrossa viii
impart the instructions to the line
candidates. Palm returns to the
Hilltop coaching staff after being
away last fall.
Nothing has been done in the way
OF replacing Elmer Rinley in charge
Of varsity basketball at the Hilltop,
but rumor has it that Bill Dudack
will have charge of the quintet this
winter, and that Freddy Mesmer
more than likely may return as
coach of the team after playing out
his last year of competition next
winter.
