GOOD GOLF
 By BuI KiSh

I do not consider the grip on the club as essential to good golf, and always taught that one should use the grip best suited to the hands by studying the golfers hands. I, personally, overlap the last finger of my right hand, but I do not teach others to do this as all hands are not alike; some may have weak wrists, small stubby fingers, long fingers, etc, and each requires a different grip. Almost any grip is the right grip if the hands are not too far apart, where there is a tendency to fight each other for control of the club. We overlap in order to make the hands act as a unit, forming a hinge between the arms and the club. We must not think too much of the hands and their work, but more of the clubhead. If we throw the hands at the hole instead of the clubhead we will gain nothing and we lose about twenty-five per cent of our power. The sooner the beginner learns to let the clubhead do the work instead of the hands, the better golf he will play. The average golfer always tries to kill the ball with the result that he presses every shot. He should learn the secret of hitting the ball; by that I mean that the golfer should stand on the tee and hit the ball easily, letting the club do the work and hold ing back any body movement UNTIL THE BALL HAS BEEN HIT. After a time at this practice the golfer will get the idea and can begin to lengthen out his drives and he will also learn that it is not force that gets the long drives, but correct timing.

Sorazen Likely As OddOn Choice To Cop Masters Tourney
FORMER CHAMPION .17 UNDER PAR IN AUGUSTA DRILLS
Bobby Jones Is BOOkies' Choice TO-day-Dutra,
 Picard, Runyan l5-l

Augusta, Ga. April 2.-UP)-- Bobby Jones is the bookmakers' choice, but to the field of SC golf CTS Gene Sarazen is the man they will have to beat in the masters tournament which starts tomorrow over the National course.
 With rounds of 65, 72. 67 and 67 posted for him. the stocky Ital. ian today was 17 strokes under par after the greatest set of prac. tice rounds turned in by any en- trant.
 Bob Is "TOps"
 With the bookmakers Jones is out in front at 6-1 and Sarazen is in second place at 7-1, but likely to be changed into the unanimous favorite before play starts.
 OliE Dutra, the national open champion, Henry Picard, Paul Runyan and Horton Smith are among several at odds ranging as high as 15-1.
 Sarazen's third sub par round of 67 was matched yesterday by just one of the field-Bob Mcdonald, playing his first round. A few 69's bobbed up and others went around in 70 and 71, while Jones, after a great start, faltered on the back nine and finished in even par 72.

GOLDEN MILLER
 BEAT HIMSELF

London, April 3.-(UP)-Thc Golden Miller mystery was sovled to-day.
 Since last Friday controversy has ragged endured, at least--- whether the Miller, Miss Dorothy Paget's Swear old wonder horse", did or did not jump perfectly in the Grand National. The answer is that he didn't.
 Golden Miller. hottest favorite ever to start in the jumping classic, unseated his jockey, Gerald Wil- son.
 Slow motion pictures taken by the British Gaumont company showed today that, despite appear ances in other pictures to the con- trary, Golden Miller jumped badly (swerved and crossed his leGs). Wilson lost his right stirrup and then his seat.
 No doubt was left, racing men said. that the Miller beat him. self.

Chicago, April 3.-(UP).-Max Baer today picked his own all- star team of heavyweight chal- lengers, dusted them off verbally for inspection and decided that he probably will retire as undefeated champion of the world at some future date.
 He didn't think Joe Louis was q contender at all and he wouldn't mention James J. Braddock in the same breath with Max Baer.
 He mentioned tkat $250,000 was Q lot of money and declared in the same breath that Max Schmeling. who has backing of that amount for an August bout in London. probably is the best of the chal- lengers.

Wait Until They Start Playing for Keeps

The Deans have been bumped a time or two this spring. and Wild Bill Hallahan has lived up to his nickname. But Dizzy Dean hasn't had time to be softened up by sud- den rjckes, even though he were the type that might be, and Bro- ther Daffy, who isn't daffy at all. revealed far too much last season to be a one-year wonder. Halla- h n usually threads a needle with the ball when the boys start play ing for keeps, and the Cards have another efficient left-handed citi. zen in Willie Walker. Dazzy Vance and Jessie Haines, an ancient and honorable pair, still are capable finishers.
 Naturally, the Deans, Hallahan, and Walker again are expected to Der the brunt of the world chm pions' bowling burden, but one or more of the newest farm crop are C, in to step into the front line.
 The Cardinals have a way of coming tip with them, and Cope land, Harrell, Heusser. Kleinke. and Pippen possess unlimited pos- abilities.

FIVE FARM HANDS 1 BOLSTER CARDINAL

KIienke Looks Like An- other Dean = Malone
 Brought $l5,OOO
By HARRY GRAYSON Sports Editor, NEA Service

Tampa, April 2--So Branch Hickey took the $15.O00 for fat Pat Malone, and called 1t another good deal.
 That's the only kind the base ball genius heading the St. Louis Cardinals and their vast farm sys- tenn makes.
 Check back painstakingly. and try to find one in which Hickey was gyped.
 The Chicago Cubs chucked in Malone to boot when they pur- chased Catcher Jimmy o'Dea from the Red Birds Subsidiary at Col. umbus.
 Hickey didn't want the 31-year- old Malone, who in the past has found keeping in condition irk- some, but reasoned that some other outfit less well prepared would be looking for seasoned right t-hander. The New York Yam kees turned out to be that club, and the $15,0O0 they paid for the former cavalryman swelled the amount Hickey collected for O'Dea to a fant.' figure.

Malone is the ninth athlete peddled since last fall, and it is easy to see what keeps the Cardinals extensive string of chain stores solvent. Cincinnati paid $55,000 for First Baseman Johnny Mize. The New York Giants parted with $28,000 for Shortstop Billy Myers, and swapped him to the Reds. Cincin- nati paid $20,000 each for Third Bas man Lew Riggs and Outfield- CT Ival Goodman.

Cards Grow Elm Down On the Farms

Cards Grow Elm Down
 On the Farms
 So. Louis has five right-handed farm hands this spring whom Hickey says will win the 1886 Ma tional League pennant, Deans or no Deans.
 They are Mays Copeland, Ray Harrell, Ed Huesser, Norbert Kleinke, and Henry Pippen.
 Hickey practically could name his own price for Red Copeland, who came up from Houston with Pippen.
 The Giants offered $16,O0O for Nub Kieinke, who graduated from Rochester with Harrell. The Cardinals easily could collect that much or more each for Harrell and the others.
 Copeland is 21, stands 6 feet, and weighs 1855 pounds. Harrell is 23. stands feet l 1-2 inches, and weighs 190. Dutch Heusscr is 26, stands 6 feet ], and weighs 197, Kleinke is 23, stands 6 feet 2, and weighs 190. Pippen is 23, stands feet 2, and weighs 178. That's how the Cards grow 'em down on the farms.
 Copeland won 16 and lost 10 at Houston in 1884. Harrell bag ged 12 and dropped 9 at Roches- ter. Heusser prevailed in II con- tests and ran second in 12 with a sixth place Knoxville aggregation before shifting to Columbus in late An0,tat Iauaaa. oIaiofly uoa ay>, . ployed as relief worker by the American Association Red Birds, copping two engagements and los- ing as many in that role.

Blow Elm Down Like Dizzy ad Daffy

There were better pitching rec ords compiled in the minors last season than those of this newest Cardinal crop, including that of Kleinke, who appears the more formidable on paper. There were few finer prospects that Copeland, Harrell, Heusser, Kleinke, and Pippen, however. More than one of them are likely to be sent out for another campaign. but the sag acious Hickey promises you that all will be back blowing down National League batsmen in 1886.
 Pippen may be converted into a flychaser. Hickey had this rangy Nebraskan in the batting cage ct 8 o'clock each morning during the early training course at Bradenton. It was pitcher that E. R. first saw the renowned Chick Hafey.
 The generous Cubs tossed in stocky Lyle Timing and Dick Ward, right-handers, in forking over a sizable sum for Tex Carle- ton. Ward, a 190-pound six-foot- CT of 24, accounted for 13 victor ies for Los Angeles while losing only decisions last semester.

'AHCO' ROLLERS
 CLAIM DRUGGISTS
 EXACCERATE WIN

Last week the Waterbury Drug gists (such as they were), rolled a special match with the Apothecar. ies Hall Big Five. The first game started late Monday night and terminated early Tuesday morning, as did the other two which followed. The Druggists managed to squeeze through with two of the three games, but they had battle on their hands all the way. In the first game the "Ahco" lads were down forty pins going into their last two boxes, but sweet victory was not to be theirs, be- cause 1t was actually blown from their grasp by Eugene Beadle, who dropped six-inch firecracker un- der Walt Brazil, just as he was about to bring home the bacon. The explosion upset Walt so much that he chopped through for a poor box, the game ending with the Druggists up by one pin.
 The second game was just a breeze for the boys from Benedict street, the final score showing them to be in the van by thirty two pin margin.
 Before the final game was fin- ished the A. H. boys were so tired that they fell asleep each time they rolled their two boxes and Moon" Mullins had all he could do to keep his mems mind on the pins instead of their beds. It was while the boys were thus sleeping yt. nIrn away with game and then only ny q ten pin margin. 1 wonder how it would have ended had the "Ahco" boys been fully awake?
 The Druggists made clean sweep of the match in as much as their second stringers took over the shock troops of the A. H two out of three games with 'Ell Stein and Paul Kunkel doing most of the sweeping eff you get ehdt mean). Andy DePietro and Bill kenausis did very well as subst!. tutes but their pal Clark Downey fell down badly all because he for got to take off his mittens before he started to bowl.
 Ernie Manganaro, the acc of tho Druggists failed to show up as scheduled, but the A. H. men a.st handicapped by the absence of Ar Dugre, better known as the "Fal River Express" in Bay State bowl ing circles. Here is man wht throws them with either hand ant with equal success on their nex meeting, 1t will be worth whil' watching these two gentlemen II action.

Pert Paragraphs

It's beginning to appear as if James J. Braddock, the Jersey Irishman, will not be dealt out of the heavyweight boxing situation after all, despite plans of everyone but the New York commission and his manager, Joe Gould, to discard the young man who was figured more or less of a soft touch for Art Lasky and who again proved himself the exception to the rule of the ring that they never come back. After all the running around, it's probable that Schmel- ing and Baer, the two Maxes, will meet in June with the winner to have Joe Louis, sensational Detroit Negro to contend with In Septem- Der, should the Brown Bomber fiatten Camera, which he is rated well able to accomplish since his rise from $10 to $2O0,000 fighter within & years time. In the mean time, Madison Square Garden must name an opponent for Baer on or before April 18th and it looks like Braddock right now.
