Golf Analysed
BY JOE GLASS.

JUST a bit more about the grip
for the short run-up shot. OBJ
servation Of many star players
leads me to the belief that the gen.
eral inclination Is to have both hands
on top Of the club. In this respect
the left is more prominent than the
right.
Above are sketched the hands of
Roger Wethered, who is noted as
one of the best practitioners of the
short run-up in golf. I recall that
Cyril Tolley told me he saw Weth-
cred make IL run-up shots in one
round Of French amateur cham
pionship in which he left himself
Evening star., 1933-01-11

with puts OF a foot or less. The
sketch shows that Wethered's right
hand Is at the side Of the club. But
it is by no means under the club.
Wethered grips the shaft, as the
sketch shows, well down ON the
leather.

COMMENTS, all favorable, continue

ment. So well pleased were most
Of the participants with the general
arrangements, and particularly the
handicap feature, that the event has
been accepted as a model by other
cities.
From some bowling critics it elected
the opinion that nearly all duckpin
competition should be on a handicap
basis, some even suggesting that the
Washington City Duckpin Association
abandon its classification system in
favor of handicaps. This, however,
would create q herculean task.
The city association, by the way,
plans to hold O meeting and election Of
officers soon, and 1t promises to be the
most interesting convention OF that
body in many years.

There are some who think
" Virginia a bit too ambitious
IN the foot ball schedule
arranged for next FAN. Playing.Ohio
State, Columbia and Navy on sue
cessive Saturdays seems to many
tough assignment for any team.
However this may be, Virginia is
making all possible preparations for
its next gridiron campaign.
Today Head Coach Fred Dawson
called meeting Of all foot ball men
who at present are out for no other
sport. He asked them whether II
a three-hour-a-week class in foot
ball were arranged they would be
willing to supplement 1t for the

was not yet II years old when I
went to Dallas to work for an insur-
ance company and to play on its bas-
ket ball team. I weighed about 105
pounds. Col. McCombs, who coached
the companys athletic teams, wanted
me to try out for the track team as
we'll as play basket ball. He thought
would be better for the running
events because did not appear heavy
and strong enough for the field events,
such as the shotput, the javelin throw
and the jumps.
But I wanted to do everything, and
the coach said he would let me try out
in the various rvents to see at which
7 was best Our track team was the
best in Texas and had cleaned up on
ell the girls teams in that State. We
had a meet scheduled for April, so
had less than two months to train
fer it.

Star at Outset.

THE first day tried out in practice
i against the other girls on our team
I outoistanced everybody in every
thing I tried No one was able to beat
me at anything. There was one girl
who weighed about 165 pounds and was
q shotputter, but I was able to beat her
This was a surprise to Col McCombs,
who thought I was not strong enough
for the field events. After that he made
me give most of my practice time to
the field events, but he had hard
time I wanted to enter every event.
It was not with any idea of being selfish
and winning everything I Just liked
everything and wanted the fun of doing
it. I had not forgotten that my sister
Lille could always beat me at running,
and I wanted to be good runner
But in the first meet the coach let
me enter only four events. They were
the high Jump, the broad Jump, the
javelin throw and the shotput I was
scared stiff the day Of the meet. !

guess am not as conceited as a lot of
people think I am Most Of the girls
on the other teams were older than
was, bigger and with more experience.
I was afraid was going to be beaten.
After my first try in the high jump,
and l made it easily, ] was not nervous
any more. I won all four of the events
I entered and won another gold medal
else in the meet.

Faith In Last Trial.

nURING that year, and In 1881 and
H. 1882, I have started in probably
$50 events in track meets. And
cannot remember having lost more than
four or five times. Most of these de-
feats came when some one did better
after I had taken my last trial
This is not an excuse. merely mean
that you can always do little bit bet
ter than you think you can if you are

better with another chance.

Father Not Athletic.
nEOPLE always ask me if my par
L ents, or any of my brothers and
sisters were athletes My father
and mother came to America from Nor
way in 1910. My father is not an ath-
lete, but he is the best cabinetmakcr
in Beaumont. Some writers have called
him carpenter, but that Is wrong. A
cabinetmnker Is skilled craftsman
who takes great pride in his work.
I think my success is due to a spirit
of pride inherited from my father. I
like to do everything as well as I can
and better, If possible, than any one
else.
The seven children in our family. in
the order of their age. are Dora, Ole,
Esther, Louis, Lille, Babe and Arthur.
None Of them, except Arthur, has had
much opportunity to go in for ath-
letics. Lille could outrun me and
would have been a worldbeater with
coaching and training. Arthur, who Is
only 16. is a good foot ball player and
will develop into a great athlete in a
few more years.
Dora is Mrs. Clarence Cole and lives
in Santa Monica. Calf Ole is married
and lives in Beaumont. Esther, who is
travelling with me, lives in Houston
Louis works in Dallas Lille and Ar
thur live at home
That's about all there is to our fam
lily history. I've read about the infiu-
ence Of my Viking ancestry" but I
don't know anything about it.
