Although Anthony Barabas is the

John Cavadine proved the teams most
consistent hitters, both being regu-

averages of .424 and .420, respectively.
Strangely enough, the only other
Hoya to end the season above the 800
mark was another whose average ap-
preached 400, Mike Petroskey, having
hit for 1893 during his 33 appearances

recently joined an electrical golf
league which stages a tournament
very once in a while. Last week they
played the tourney at Indian Spring,

of the group. no one knew his golf
capabilities and he didn't tell any
one he could play much golf He
was paired with an estimable white
haired gentleman with lady-like
little swing, which propelled the ball
all of $50 yards down the fairway.
Martin started Z, Z, 6, 6. with no
effort at all. On the fifth tee his
partner, having looked him over and
having decided he wasn't such hot
golfer said by way of conversation:
"Mr. Mccarthy, have you ever had
any ambition to break go? That's the
goal of all we buffers, and I'm sure
you feel the same way about it. 1t
must be a great thrill to get down in
the 80s. Think we'll ever make it?"
Martin didn't say anything, but it
must have gotten his Irish up, for
he took of the wraps and whacked the
ball around the next IA holes in one
under par. Mr.. Mccarthy, owe
you an apology" his partner said as
they putted out on the eighteenth.

Roland Never Satisfied.

d GLAND is not the kind of fellow to
- be satisfied with his game of golf.
Whether he scores 81 or mere II
(his ordinary pace) he isn't pleased
unless he does it right. Which is the
reason he went over to Freddie last
Friday for what he calls his periodical
Hooking over"
See here, Roland" Freddie said.
"Why the dickens don't you go back
TO the swing you had as a kid, when
you used to whack those tee shots
clear from Lunatic Hill far out into
Connecticut avenue, when there wasn't
a man in the world who swung better
than you and with more freedom?"
Just how will I do it?" Roland asked
Freddie.
Get those hands higher and cock
your wrists more and get your feet
closer together. Just try it." Roland
tried it, and he's been trying it since
Friday and he looks more like the boy
who won the amateur championship
qualifying medal back in 1925 than he
has looked at any time since. He is
hitting the ball straighter and with
more snap and with less body push
than for many. many years.
Remembers Old Swing"
sEREDDIE certainly has the camera
eye," Roland laughed today. He
remembered my old swing when had
forgotten about it. Look at this one"
And he whaeked blistering iron shot
straight down the groove without a
suggestion of pull or slice for carry of
225 yards. Look for Roland to be a
straighter golfer than ever before, all
because Freddie Mcleod carried a
mental picture for Is years,

changed until you would hardly recog-
nize the Mackenzie of 1924 in the pro
who swung clubs at Congressional un-
til last Friday. Why last Friday? Be-
cause on that day Roland looked at
picture of the brown-haired kid who
stormed through the amateur ranks so
impressively II years ago. The pic
ture wasn't on paper and no camera
took it. But it remained in the minds
eye of Freddie Mcleod, the stocky
little Columbia pro who first taught
Roland to swing golf club more than
is years back when Roland was a kid
IL years old and it stuck in Freddie's
mind over the years while Roland was
changing his style over and over again,
