preston the writer gathers from perusal
Of Mr.. Endersby Towards criticism of
British golflng form.
It is possible to speak with greater
certainty concerning the play of the
best Americans, who unquestionably
keep the blade of an iron club square
to the line of play during the early
stages Of the swing. Just why this
should make all the difference that
Tolley says 1t has made in his game

Farrell, according to the Brit
Usher, told him that the only thing
he needed to be one of the worlds
elect in golf was to adopt the
American back swing for his iron
shots. Tolley tried it, and, thus
bulwarked, ironed his way to vic
tory.
Just what Tolley is doing must re-
main for explanation until he comes 70
this country, but it would seem that
the difference between the British ard
the American back swing with iron
clubs has lain in the fact that the
average Briton in his FIRST movement
turns the blade of an iror club away
from the ball, so that at the top of the
swing the toe of the club is pointing to

His hitting was done from q point
about halfway down and on through

You could tell he was taking the

as it moved back along the clover

troll the clubhead would have lifted
more quickly. You see as one goes

 The rocks show that there have been alternate periods of marine and animal life. Some scientists nave concluded that the bodies of sish and sea life. decaying thru the centuries, form petroleum Others think that Gil comes from chemical reactions in the earth, i'1st as minerals are supposedly formed. This has given rise to two principal theories. One is called Tnorgan nic and the other is called Organic.
 These who dc not believe that ,'henicals-tll action of water on metallic carbides in the earth form petroleum quote Stigand as an authority. He says:
 "The eyistance of improbably ,argc quantities of metallic car hides, within access in the earth, ,"ould be required, if only to sui flee for originating the amount of petroleum which has been produc- led. as the amount of metallic car bides demanded is very great ill |oroportion to the petroleum that can ..e produced from them.
