The missing figure will be that
of the rubber man from Czecho-
slovakia, Karel Kozeluh. He was
the only one left that meant any
thing in professional circles, when
it was announced that Frank Hun
ter, Tilden's side kick of many
years, would replace Bruce Barnes
on tomorrow's card.
With the coming of Hunter, four
of the five ranking professional
players of the world (not just the
United States, mind youO will be
here in all their glory.
Ranks Fifth
Tilden is undisputedly monarch
of them all, Richards ranks next
to him, Kozeluh follows right on
Vinnie's heels and then Frank
Hunter.
The fifth man is Albert Burke,
clever European pro ace, who
hasn't been able to shine be-
cause of the scintilIating bril-
lance of his contemporaries on Z.
this side of the big creek.
Burke is almost certain to see
action in the singles tomorrow
with either Emmett Pare, former
Georgetown netman, or Hunter
on the pounding the opposing
court. Pare who appears the
likelieSt choice, is slowly but
surely forcing the top-notchers to
recognize him as a power and
make the top round a hexagon,
and victory over Burke for him,
with many close matches with
Tilden and Kozeluh already to
his credit will bring him much
added prestige. Hunter Is not
at his best in the singles at
present.
The doubles match in which
the four major performers will
appear, Tilden and Hunter, Old
time harness mates. against Rich
ards and Burke, will go far to-
ward rivalling the headline
singles attraction in which Rich
ards and Tilden resume one of
the oldest tennis battle, if not
the oldest, in the world.
They first met in 1917, when
Richards was only Is years
old. Richards beat Tilden in
1919 for the national indoor

of the back swing, the same
as you swing up to that point.
When you return the club with
out the momentary pause, you
jump away from the top, in
some degree. The more you
jump, the more disastrous the
shot. From this top position,
after the poise-gathering pause,
move your hands directly to-
ward the ground, not toward
the ball. Let your club swing.
Look at the ball and avoid
haste to get it away.

HAvRE DE GRACE RACE
TRACK, Md, Sept. 26.-There are
almost enough horses on the
schooling list to run a race meet
ing. With the adding of Make
Believe, Sir James, Tinge, Jack
staff, Fair Boy, Mazyniata and
Quarter Deck, there are "a in
school.
H. Roseacher has sold Star
Lassie, 4-year-old chestnut, daugh-
ter of Ladkin and Star Class, to
D. Homewood, at private terms.
When the stewards fined j. w.
Healy the sum of $25. due to his
adding of blinkers to Roam Ante
lope's equipment, it is understood
that they said the platter had
never carried the cheaters before.
A glance through the chart
books show the last time Healy
ran Roam Antelope at Saratoga
Springs, N. Y, blinkers were part
of the equipment.
1t may be that the person
who entered Roam Antelope did
not specify blinkerS, but If the
charts show a horse carried
blinkers in his last start, then
there is no just reason for fin
ing a trainer.
Checkers claim it was Medicine
Bow, and not Voltagreen, that
ran off yesterday morning. If
such is the case, how can any
one explain Voltagreen's race?
j. J. Murphy. pal of Trainer
Sammy Smith, of the Dorwood
Stable, was an arrival from New
York.
There is an interesting race on
for a $500 gold stop-Watch which
Manager Edward Burke is offer
ing to the leading winning rider.
When today's sport opened Tex
Callahan, Pat Remillard, ans
Sonny Workman we're all tied for
the lead With rOur victories each.
Jack Whyte, who handles the
Willis Sharpe Kilmer string, has
won eight races since taking
over the horses. He has an
nexed a pair of purses here, took
down five around Chicago, and
landed one at Saratoga.
When today's racing started
Jockey H Tex" Callahan had
only one more winning mount
left before he loses his apprentice
allowances. Frank Capra, of
Baltimore, is making the riding
engagements for both Callahan
and Remillard who won doubles
yesterday.
Weights for the Havre de
Grace Cup test to be run one
week from today will be released
at 6 o'clock tonight. If they fail
to suit Owner w. S. Kilmer he will
ship Sun Beau, the worlds largest
money winning thoroughbred, to

By CHESTER HORTON

If there is lacking in your
swing a slight pause at the
top Of the backswing during
which the hand and wrist
muscles require a moment or
two to draw up, your return
or forward swing will start too
quickly. This leads to mis-
timing, which means that your
hands will swing through ahead
of your clubhead and cause
slice, also causing the rolling,
bouncing ball. 1t is necessary

Univ. Of Illinois Football Coach
The teams last named in the
foregoing list, in all cases repre-
sentong the larger institution
should win today. \ :,
Ohio University, which should
not be confused with Ohio state
at Columbus, has been undeteateo
for two years and is champion OF
the Buckeye Conference. Coached
by Don Peden, cracking gooo
halfback at Illinois in 1920 and
1881, Ohio is at the top OF lts
class and plays high-class footoall;
Two years ago Ohio U. defeated
Indiana when the Hoosiers played
a double-header, which probably
had something to do with the re-
verse. Some successful coacneS
like to play two games on the
opening day. Personally l teei
that switching players around
from one team to another IS not a
good thing. I think it is bad tor
their timing if they do not play
with men with whom they nave
practiced daily.
I doubt if Ohio U. will be as
strong as in the last two seasons
As Peden has lost many good
men.
Indiana has a new coach. Billy
Hayes, who has made good as a
track coach for the Hooslers, ana
was drafted to succeed Pat Page:
Hayes. however, has had plenty OF
coaching experience at Mississippi
A. and M. His chief assistant
and line coach is Butch NoWacK'
captain of Illinois championship
team in 1928.
Material Plentiful
Indiana has 13 lettermen ana
many 1890 reserves with several
sophormores of whom at least
three are expected to win posi-
tionS. The Hoosiers say they ex-
pect a tight game with Ohio, but
INV guess is that they will take IL.
George Veenker, formerly bas-
ketball coach and an assistant
football coach at Michigan. Is the
new coach at Iowa State, succeed
ing Noel Workman, of Ohio state:
Veenker is / careful student OF
football who can be depended
upon to organize his squad TO get
the most out of it.
Iowa State has been the
tough luck team Of the Big
Six and has had two disastrous
seasons. That shows how the
nendulum swings. Just four
years ago Workman brought
Iowa State to Illinois for the
opening game and tied our
team which won all its other
games and championship.
The most interested spectators
of these games will be the scouts
from rival teams. They will OBJ
tain plenty of information even
If the games are chiefly set-ups.
First of all they will watch the
style of attack to see if the
coach is adhering to his tradi-
tional system. They will study
movements of the players on Of
tense and determine who will do
the kicking and whether the
kicker can run or pass.
They will observe the set-up
for defense and whether their fu-
ture adverr ary uses the man for
man or cone defense or forward
passes.

WEEK BY WEEK
PROGRESS SHOWN
IN 50 VOLUMES
Many New Business Men Start
Work Here; Several New
Buildings Built

The years history as told from
week to week in The Redwood Ga
zette is outlined in brief in the fol-
lowing article.
Good news of the city's progress anG
development is mingled in the sum-
mary with the regrettable incidents
just as each edition heralds some
good tidings and some news of
deaths, accidents and disasters.
The highlight of the summary is
the remarkable number of improve
ments. Besides two major building
projects, many new homes and bust
ness improvements have been made
during the year while others are un-
der discussion and may be in the re-
chronicle next season.
The auto accidents reported from
week to week have been surprisingly
frequent and in many cases tragic.
Many pioneers and some younger per-
sons have been buried by sorrowing
friends and relatives during the year.
Among the pleasanter items are
the tax reductions which have been
frequent and large during the year.
The weather, played big role in the
years history as new heat records
were set after light winter.
From the newspaperman's angle,
perhaps the big story of the season
was the account of the amateur
sleuths' capture Of young Lochin-
carr after daring holdup and thrill
ing chase. The Palace fire probably
was the most spectacular.
Many business changes have been
reported and possibly some have been
omitted. Marriages were frequent.
The summary is intended to include
the highlights. If minor matters have
been included or important items
omitted, The Gazette apologies.
