Golf Analvzed

mashie shot. The club is gather
ing momentum as it comes down
toward impact with the ball. Bills
left foot is planted firmly on the
ground In a fraction of a second
his left leg will be braced on it.
The theory is that mashie shots
are played against the left hip. The
pivot, being restricted almost solely
to the hips, naturally is shortened.
So is the swing The object is to
send the clubhead straight out on
the direction line after it picks up
the ball. At the end Of the stroke
both arms and the club point toward
the hole.

by the left leg this wouldn't take
place. The whole body would come
around too quickly, and the result
would be shot far off the direction
line.
This bracing action is not hard to
attain, for the simple reason that
since the pivot is so slight both feet
can remain solidly placed through
out the stroke until its finish. Some
players raise the left heel q bit, but
it isn't necessary.

Representative Norton wants special joint committee OF

Of the District Government
There would be little to be gained at this time by
radical alteration of the present form.
Many Washingtonians demand kind of VOTE either

Neither suggestion commands the full support of District

Likewise is doubtful Congress would consent to either

"Safety" Zones
Targets for Wanton Drivers

The disregard by socaed safety
zones should bring prompt and vigorous action by the police
and traffic authorities.
Several deaths have occurred recently result of the
wanton disregard of the white lines which supposed to give
pedestrians haven of safety.
Apparently the painted strips not effective.
Motorists should remember that these zones were established
only to protect pedestrians but convenience time
saver for drivers.
Prior to their creation motorists compelled to stop
certain number of feet behind street schargng or re-
ceving passengers.
This tied up traffic and slowed down automobiles.
The safety seemed to be worthwhile step for the
venience both of motorists and pedestrians.
But if the motorists going drive through these
and knock down those who have right think they being
protected the logical thing do to abolish zones and
force all motorists to to full stop and remain motonle
while people are boarding or leaving street cars.
