GOOD GOLF
 BiU KiSh

Nine out of ten golfers fail to play good golf because they do not relax the muscles. This is of vital importance. When the average golfer steps on the tee the tendency is to stiffen his body and tense his muscles when he should do just the opposite. Relaxation is found in youth, but it is a great rarity in the middle aged man. If we are too tense we lose twenty-five per cent of our distance and we also lose direction and accuracy. l insist that foot-work in hit ting a golf ball is at least half the battle. If one does not stand properly or use his feet as they should be used, he cannot hope to succeed at golf even in a small way. First of all we must have 8 solid foundation. One cannot do a jig dance and hit a ball at the same time. We must settle down on our feet with most of the weight on the heel or ball of the foot. There must be no suggestion of being on the toes, where we are apt to lean too far forward. If we place the feet too close to- gether, it can develop into a very serious fault and in H position like this we are apt to transfer the weight from one foot to the other too quickly. I always insist that the golfer should settle back on his left foot before hitting the ball. I do not believe that swaying is detrimental to the swing if done properly. My own swing is a half sway and a half pivot.

BOYS CLUB CADETS COMPLETED GOOD
 SEASON ON COURT

The Boys Club Cadets, state junior champions for the past four years, who this year entered tho senior ranks of basketball, have drawn their curtains for the 1934- 1885 season. They represented the local club as variety com bine, and the club officials feel mighty proud of their years show ing.
 Young, fast, and aggressive they met some of the leading senior teams in Connecticut, and have compiled a total of fifteen wins and eight losses.
 Not Bad
 Their outstanding victories in-
 ciuded double win over the U. 5.
 Rubber company of Naugatuck, and the Worden's Five, state ih-
 dustrial champs of last year. Among their strongest opposition
 of the City Amateur league were the local rish-Americans, of the City Amateur league, tho Meriden Endees, the Jacks Lunch Speed Boys of Middletown, all of  whom they extended to the limit only to lose out in the final stanzas of the game.
 They entered two state basket ball tournaments, one the Boys Club State Senior two-day elim- ination tourney which was held in Greenwich whsre they were defeated in the finals, and the Wa terbury Democrat State Senior Tourney where they were elimin- ated in the quarter-finals. The personnel of the team con- sisted of James Crichton, Paddy Damelio, Cliff Loughlin, Howie
 Loughlin, John Griffin, Weenie Zcnick, Jack Keefe. Harry Huey, Frank (Boxer) Pugliese, Pal DiLu- cia, Sylvio Spagnuolo, Mike Ex- harou, and Mike Champagne. James Crichton acted in the ca-
 pacity of player-coach, and the managerial end was handled by

New York, April 2-(UP)-The worlds worst sports forecaster came into my oce today, took off my hat and coat, sat myself down at my typewriter, and communted with me as to the worst predic- tions we coul dgive off.
 We arrived at the following:
 The New York Giants will be the class of the National league from the start and will win the pennant by a pretty decent margin.
 The Giants opponents in the World Series will be those charm- ing young men of the stadium, the Tanks.
 Malcolm Campbell will make that 300 miles on Daytona Baech if the city officials will invite him in September, when storms keep the beach hammered hard as con- crete, instead of insisting he come in February and serve as tourist bait.
 Lou Ambers, partly because he is a great fighter and partly be- cause Barney Ross can't make 135 pounds anymore without losing his strength and speed, will win the lightweight championship in June.
 Helen Wills Moody, while she never will come back all the way, still will have enough to take the American singles title from Helen Jacobs. But La Moody will take a licking from Dorothy Round when and if she goes to Wimble- don.
 Australia will win the Davis cup this year.
 Paul Dean will outpitch the tl- lustrious Dizzy.

court whose personnel seems ideal for
its purpose. Inheriting an onerous
task from its dissatisfied predecessors,

roar. In its deliberations Prof. Will

who love the drama so ardently that
they forgive its occasional transgres-
sions In gratitude for its occasional
virtues. To him what Mr. Thackeray
called "the theater's tawdry tapers"
are flambeaus, shedding the light of
entertainment upon the dark places of
ennui. Probably the only play to
which Prof. Phelps is entirely un-
sympathetic is THE Children's Hour"

find no reason. !, for one, pardon him
his resentment at that interruption of
his wise, wholesome and fragrant train
Of thought; and ! envy him his help

and most humorous of the sophisti-
