The head might be called the anchor of the golf swing. It is the only part of the body that should remain still; then 1t matters little if the head is lifted to watch the flight of the ball.
 Some instructors assert the head should be held 50 that the eyes are parallel to the line of flight; others allow pupils to tilt the head to the right, 50 that the chin is pointed at @ spot behind the ball.
 At no time should the head be allowed to wander from it's set plane at address. Lifting the head, or moving 1t forward or backward, causes the axis of the shoulders to be moved with 1t; naturally, the arc of the swing also will be thrown in the direction the head has moved.
 Keep the head still, but keep the gray matter moving.

Franco-American B0zUIing Notes

The Franco American Social Club Girls bowling league met at the club Tuesday night to complete ar- rangements for their banquet which will be held at Guertin's Inn on the Cheshire road Saturday even ing. Some remarks were made to the effect that the girls had been betetr bowlers than the men as the girls teams have been victorious in every match and the mems teams had been the loser in some matches.
 The men contended that their own teams had taken all corners and that teams had been recruited from a number of the best bowlers fin Bristol, New Britain and Hartford and this accounted for their failure to win in every match. The argu- ment that ensued caused such furor that the meeting was com- pletely disrupted. The girls present challenged the men to gather a team amongst their number and try to prove the male superiority in bowling Cor in any other line of sports, 50 they said).
 Miss 0eorgette La Bonne and Miss Alice Veillette were left with the responsibility of making the final arrangements for the banquet and the following girls went forth to bowl for the protection of their bowling prestige: Mildred Kenny, Cecile Mathieu. Nora Connors, Lu- cienne and Annette Lafreniere. The men gathered their team as follows: Arthur Dugre, William Cambigue. Ray Taylor. Jules Bourassa. Donat Boulanger and Alexander L6mieux.
 Girls Did Well
 The girls failed to come up to the mems scoring but followed much too close for the mems comfort. The men tried to get members from the regular teams, who came in later, to substitute for the weaker bowlers but there was Q large audience which insisted that the original ar- foll0wB:

CLASS B BOWLERS
 GETTING ATTENTION

Class B Sweepstakes, confined to bowlers whose averages do not ex- ceed 115 per game are becoming very popular.

 Participants in either the Neal Ball or the Ray Manente Sweep stakes will be accepted without ques- ton but others must have the veri- fication of the secretary of the league in which they roll.
 Play will commence at 100 p. m. and entries will be accepted until 11:00 D. m. The sweepstakes will have the sanction of the National Duckpin Bowling Congress and rec ord, if any, will be accepted by that body as the competition will be con- ducted under national rules.

EX-BALTIMORE
 STAR LOOKSLIKE STEADY STARTER
YOungster Gave Brooklyn 4 Hits; Frisch Homer
 Beats Chicago Cubs
By HENRY SUPER

United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 New York, April 16-(UP)-Harry Gunpert, 8. right-handed hurler who came to the New York Giants late last season from the Baltimore Orioles, shapes up as the answer to Bill Terry's prayers for another capable starting pitcher.
 Gumpert, who worked in six games A year ago and scored one victory, was called the "key man" to the New York staff before the 1o36 season started.
 Yesterday the 24 year old Penn sylvania youth held the Brooklyn Dodgers to four scattered hits and joined Curt Davis of the Philadel- phia Phillies as the only National league pitchers to yield such small number of blows in two days of con- petition.
 Gumbert did not allow runner to reach first until the sixth inning as the Giants triumphed, 5-3, in 8 game that was enlivened by 8 fist fight. Thanks to Gumbert's classy job, the Giants today share the National league lead with the Pitts burgh Pirates.
 The fight was between Van Nun go who started in the box for Brooklyn, and Dick Bartell, fiery Giant shortstop. Bartell claimed that Mungo ripped him in covering first base on bunt in the second inning and started swinging. The two players went down in a heap and 1t was several minutes before they were separated. Players of both teams rushed on the field and 1t took the umpires ten minutes to re- store peace. Both players were elected from the game.
 The Pirates stayed on top with 8 7-6 triumph over Cincinnati. Paul Waner's single in the ninth which scored Jensen, turned the trick. The St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs dropped into a tie for second place when the Cards re- versed Tuesdays decision over the league champions. Manager Frankie Frisch's homer in the fifth-his first hit of the season-with Terry Moore aboard, gave the Cards 3-2 triumph.
 The Boston Bees scored nine runs in the fourth to whip the Philadel- phia Phillies, 12-4.
 The Chicago White Box and the Washington Senators held the lead in the American league, sharing first place with the Boston Red Sox, who were idle. The White Sox whipped the St. Louis Browns, 6-3, while the Senators halted the Yankees, 6-5.
 Cleveland's Indians evened their series with the world champion De- troit Tigers. The Indians knocked Tommy Bridges from the box as they scored 14-7 victory. Bruce Camp bell had 8 perfect day at bat, gct- ting four hits, including homer.
 YESTERDAYS HERO - Frankie Frisch of the St. Louis Cardinals, whose first hit of the season--a homer-enabled the Cards to whip the Chicago Cubs.

BY PAT DENGIS (WrltIten for United Press)

Speed is my business. In my ca- pacity as a tool maker in the Glenn L. Martin Aircraft Corporation in Baltimore helped construct the clipper ships which inaugurated the San Francisco to Manila trans Pacific service. And, without wishing to appear boastful, confidently ex- pect to win the B. A. A. marathon Monday in record time.
 Lost 47 Pounds
 I started active training for the holiday race January 3rd and think that have worker harder than any other man in the game. A great be- liever in long training jaunts. I have piled up an average of more than 100 miles week. You might be interested to know that since started running four years ago at the age of 30, with no previous ath- letic experience, my weight has dropped from 192 pounds to exactly l45 pounds-and eat anything that comes along, including beer. There may be hint in this for some of you lat men.
 Not So Bad
 If you ask me why I'm 50 confi- dent of victory in the B. A. 4. race, my anSwer is that I never felt bet- ter in my life, and that my 1895 record entities me to be optimistic. I took part in five marathons last year, and my record was two wins, two seconds, and fourth. won the National A. A. U. marathon at Washington, and the Philadelphia marathon. I was second at Boston and at Portchester, N Y. twhere I won in 1884. At Yonkers, N. Y, I was fourth, behind Johnny Kelley, Les Pawson and Mel Porter. My most recent race was the North Mcdford clubs 20-miler, in which I finished fourth.
 Whether won or lose at Boston, I shall defend my national mara thon championship at Washington late next month. Not that have any doubts about winning next Monday because, as my little blonde wife says
 Pat Dengis will win in common gallop."

EIkS' BOwHng League Items

,s.he last weekly high single Of the season was captured by Harvey Pel- letter who knocked of triple strike in his final game to hit 142 score
 The Gribbon Lumberman proved th0 sensation of the final week by taking all four points from the Paintmen to go into tie for first place with the Powermen, who lost three games to Lux. John Savino was the outstanding star for the Lumbermen, hitting 343, which fur nishcd his mates with most of their extra pins.
 Due to the tic which existed, Gribb0n and Roberts PoWermen bowled for first and second place respectively on Monday night and after splitting the first two games, the Powermen made a strong finish in the final to cop the honorS in the American League. Dick Hyland was the leading performer in this match.
 The triple strike which Harvey Pellctier hit in his last game meant more than the weekly high single, as 1t enabled his team to win this one game from Jarlett, for their only win of the night. If Jarlett had won this game he would have been in third place and Pelletier would be out of the prize division.
 Jim Calvin copped prize for himself during this final week, by bowling 96 without mark, which makes four of the brothers tied up on this honor.
 Of the 24 teams which make up the league there were only five teams which went through the sea son and used only their five origin al men. These teams are as fol- lows: Lord, Pope, Stanton, Cooke and York. However, honorable men, tion has to be given to Verriker Sullivan and Dvileskis, whose five men all bowled their 89 games, ez- cept for one or two nights, when a substitute was used.
 The playoff for final standing, be- tween the leaders of each league t to be held on the club alleys on Wednesday evening and large gall leYy is expected.
 Final arrangements are now being completed for the annual banquet which is to be held in the social session hall on Saturday evening April 18th and present indications are that the banquet will exceed any of those in the past.
