oldtimers as king of the murders in

timber-topper whose records stood

30 wears. When he retired from the

As trainer of college men. Cope

for many years in the old New York

When the Telegram was sold by

that paper to join the stan Of the
New York Daily News, with which
he still is affiliated. He IS that

Concerning Fundamentais.


* you have written ct various
Nv times" H. F. L. writes in,
about fundamentals - the
main fundamentals Of golf
and foot ball and boxing. Would you
mind telling me just what you mean
by fundamentals, anyway"
Fundamentals are foundations. They
carry the structure. 1t is upon funda-
mentals that you build whatever skill
you have later on. II the foundation
is weak-the house will collapse. II
the main fundamentals are wrong. the
game will collapse-especially under
any heavy pressure.
For example, In golf
Bobby Jones, Gene Sarazen, Mac
Hagen have somewhat different meth
DDS Of hitting a golf ball.
But they are alike in these respects
/. The head remains as anchor to
the swing in what might be termed q
practically fixed position throughout.
2. The body turn or pivot, with the
left arm In control, the left wrist
cooked.
3. Weight distribution, which in
cludes getting the left side out Of the
way for the down swing.
There are several others which might
be mentioned. Any number Of poten-
TALLY good golfers have gotten no
where because certain fundamentals
went astray and never were corrected.
Same In Foot BAN.
CMART coaches this Spring soon will
y be working on the more important
foot ball flndamentals-the right
. way to block-to throw q paste
tackle-to kick.
Not so long ago several of US sat
with Fielding H. Yost, Michigan's vet
Gran expert, in the dining room of q
leading hotel until nearly 5 o'clock
hours.
Mr.. Yost was demonstrating the art
Of punting-an the minor details Of
leg and foot action-body action
dropping the ball properly-before one
ever could become o consistently good
kicker.
There were three or four details q
good kicker had to have under control
such as only . Mills, q Kipke and q
few others can teach.
Mr.. Yost showed why certain Hckers
fesembled world beaters In one game
and appeared dubs In the next-why
they were nconsistent-and foot ball Il
full Of such. After all, you don't Just
drop foot ball and thump It with
your foot.
The same is true of blockins-of for
ward passing. A Benny Friedman can
peg a foot ball into the hands Of q
