BY BOBBY JONES.

HAVE written so much about the
importance of an active left hand
in the golf stroke that I feel some
little hesitancy about continuing
the subject, but come in contact with
all classes and kinds Of golfers and If I
am safe in assuming, as I think I am,
that those which I meet are an average
cross section of the players Of the game,
there Is still ample room to lay stress
on this left hand. Whenever some one
wants to know why he is hooking or
why he is slicing, he recognizes imme-
diately any illustration OF his prob
able method of hitting which is done
with the right hand. but in every case
the worried individual has difflculty
why, in order to correct
right hand full. he should begin to
work with the left
I am told that there is a young in
structor in Buffalo who has had q
considerable success in teaching the use
of the right hand in golf, working on
the theory that the average right
handed person can better control his
swing in that way. The only trouble
with this from my point Of view Is that
the right hand is working in space
without any limitation other than what
may be imposed by the left. In other
words, the right arm Is bent when the
club leaves the ball coming back and it
never straightens out until after the ball

Grasping Club Mainly With
Upper Three Fingers of Left
Hand Is Suggested by Jones

has been struck Leave it alone then
and it may go anywhere, depending
upon how much the elbow may bend.
For this reason think that the path
of the right hand would be very DIM
cult to control.
But taking the thing the other way.
the proper anchor point OF the swing e
the head. Now If the shoulders turn
about the head as an axis the arc Of
the swing Is limited by the length Of
the left arm and If the left arm Is
kept perfectly straight the path of the
hands and the clubhead will be made
as definite as it is possible to make
them. Where the average player gets
into trouble in this direction is in keep
ing his left arm straight without set
ting up some tension or rigidity in his
left wrist. 1t is actually very difn-
cult ideal to accomplish to restrain
every bit of flexibility in the elbow
joint without causing the left hand
to squeeze the club and the left wrist
to solidify. 1t is certainly as plain as
day that the left wrist must be active
In order for the left arm and side to
not be cooked" at the top of the
swing, 1t will have no snap or whipping
power when 1t comes time to hit the
ball, and Immediately the player realizes
this he cannot help trying to supply the
deficiency by the use of his right hand.
AS have said many times, this cock
ing Of the left wrist is q thing which
always have to think about.
Open Left Hand Slightly.
There is one thing in the grip which
wrist cock at the top Of the swing and
that is holding the club in the fingers
Of the left hand If you will try the
thing yourself you will ind that II the
club is allowed TO lie across the palm
Of the left hand, merely holding on
to it tightens the muscles in the hand
and wrist, but II 1t Is held in the
fingers, and mainly with the upper
three fingers of that hand, the tight
ness in the wrist will be considerably
diminished. Another thing which this
assists is the feel Of the clubhead at
the top of the swing. I find that it
helps materially to open the left hand
tiny bit at the top in order to get
just a little sense of the weight of the
club at that point. 1t is running
grave risk to do this If the club is
held in the palm of the hand, for then
1t Is apt to change its position, but If
it is held firmly in the fingers, the
fingers may open without actually re-
taxing their grip upon the club and
the little tug which the clubhead gives
aids just that much in causing the
left wrist to bend.
Now when the swing with the wrist
bent at the top If the club Is started
down without Strengthening the wrists,
then when the hitting area is reached
there Is plenty of wrist action saved
up to whip the club through the ball
and to close the face in plenty Of time.
do not say that it Is only the stiff
wristed player who has trouble with his
right hand, but certainly he has more
than the man whose wrists work freely.

ular local electromagnetic takes on
Sam Weiss, rugged and hard-punching
Philadelphian, in the wind-ups> OF q

The question seems to be centered
In Barry's ability to take punishment.
II he can stand the aggressive Weiss on
for five rounds, local fistic fans con-
cede him a fine chance to get the
verdict.
weiss laced Pete Latzo at the Mid
City Club two weeks ago; he stood
toe-to-toe with the former welterweight
champion Of the world and held his
own. Weiss easily is the best opponent
van and Barry agree that If the red
head Is to move along he must hurdle
Weiss.
Weiss holds victories over Billy
Jones, Rosy RosaleS. Babe McGorgary,
Vincent Forgione. Gene McCue, Pat

Alaska Has oldest Diamond
Built on Beach Sands, Its Ball Games Are Subject
to Vagaries of Tides.


and at low tide Is an admirable
place. Level, hard sand makes the
terrain ideal for speed. Sometimes
an extra long drive goes into the
ocean for a two-base hit. Nature
has ordained that during June and
July there should be some of the
lowest daylight tides of the year.
A grandstand overlooks the beach
diamond, but the field has to be
laid out before each game.
There is no other nat surface in
the town here. as it is built at the
foot of mountain rising sheer from
the sea.
In Autumn, after umpires and
base ball players have laid away
masks and suits, the tidewater field
becomes gridiron for the grade
and high school athletes.

"Hit Ball" Where It Is.

Many an otherwise good hitter
has been spoiled by trying to pull
outside" balls as well as inside"
balls and becomes what is known as
a one-field hitter
The right-handed hitter who tries
to pull outside balls to left field and
the left-handed hitter who tries to
pull outside balls to right field is
playing right into the pitchers
hands.
The batter who attempts to pull
outside balls, especially fast balls,
never really gets hold of one, and
the result is usually puny grounder
or pop fly.
Hit the ball" where it is. In
other words, hit outside balls to
