THE SPORTLICHT
Toughest Tasks Up to Parks, Braddock,
Tigers, ON Spot in Defense of Titles.
BY GRANTIAND RICE

Horton Smith, especially. is all to the
slender side.
Just back of these Henry Picard,
another tall, lanky individual, has
been close up, playing brilliant golf.
However, Sam Parks, the open
champion, and Lawson Little,
amateur champion, are still
carrying the torch and banner
for the stockier clan.
Good golf is hardly matter OF
build. Any advantage in being closer
to the ground is Offset by easier pivot
ing for the taller star.
Two of the best short game players
Horton Smith and Paul Runyan, are
high up and short. but they get the
needed results. A battle today of the
longs and shorts, the thicks and the
thins, would be Just about a toss-up
The Right idea.
HORTON SMITH has the right idea
Good gold" he told me, de
pends more on the mental than the
physical side. First there is the
matter OF concentration, Wnlcn Ism
so easy. Then there also is tie mat
ter of thinking in the right sequence
For example, to play good golf the
player must first decide definitely
what club he Is to use and have a
mental picture on just how hard he
is to swing.
with that picture in mind he then
must think of nothing except the
right method Of swinging. No club
is going to play itself. 1t may sound
all right to say that good golf is auto
matte golf, but it isn't. For example,
one of the main troubles with most
erratic putters is this-their mental
state is a blur of the right line and
the speed of the green while they are
stroking the ball. There can be nc
smoothness under such mental con-
ditions.

jet-condenser, no good for saltwater navigat-

Lakes would soon freeze. No time to ft-out for

for boiler purposes. The Chief spent three days

- LARING down at Jim Walton with a cold
" whteness, the severe walls of the hospital
waiting room seemed to be closing in on him,
suffocating him, crushing him with their glacier
like hardness. The nauseating odor of ether and
the strong, pungent aroma of disnfectants, IN
his critical condition, gave him a sinking sem
sation in the pit of his stomach. He felt weak
and dizzy. The terrible quietness, too, got on
his nerves.
WHY must he sit here in this miserable wait

notion to see him? II he didn't get attention

He couldn't stand it much longer. They'd have

that main desk and answer question after ques-
ton One would think he was looking for job,
rather than seeking service for which he was
paying and paying well, too. They wanted to
know where he worked, how much money he
earned where he lived, his age his religic1, and
on and on While he stood there, going through
all this red tape, dying with the moments others
came in. They too, were forced to undergo the
same awful ordeal. 1t was maddening! AS
than life itself! Indeed the fact that a life
might be at stake seemed to mean nothing at
all to them.
Suddenly it came to him! Sure, that was it,
They simply weren't taking any chances of not
getting the information for their records some
time later from people who had finis written
all over their faces.
ORD Would they never come for him? His
breathing apparatus was all haywire He
felt choked up. Precipitation trickled down his
forehead and drpped off the end of his nose.
He had a splitting headache and the nausea was
becoming worse. Unable to bear it longer, he
rose TO his feet, swayed dizzily for moment,
then slowly began to pace the floor, hoping this
might relieve the tense strain he was under

his knees seemed about to fold under him. He

Poor a block-book made in 1470. At the left is

Birth of Christ. and at the right Aaron's Rod.
The illustration is from Gertrude Hartman's
"The World We Live In" published by the Mac

Miss Hartman makes little comment on this
unusual page but explains that the Poor Mans
Bible was one of the earliest books in the world.
It seems that the poor people could not afford
the beautifully hand made Bibles of the Monks,
so these simple picture books were made to
give them consolation-and compensation.
THE BIBLE WAS THEN AND is NOW THE
WORLDS BEST SELLER AND THOUGH YOU
MAY SCOFF AT THE IDEA IT Is VITALITY

ships give hope to men weary of the struggle
of existence and the vcissitudes of living.
You may not know it but you seek consola-

cient poor ones. THE MORE YOU DECLARE
YOUR SUPERIORITY OVER RELIGIOUS BE-
LIEFS, THE MORE DO YOU FEEL THE
NEED OF THEM. Take Dr. Alfred Adler's

that the feeling of inferiority when compensa-
tion takes neurotic direction drives the patient
to achieve as absolute domination as possible
over his surroundings.
20 YOU SEE THE LOUDER YOU PRO-
y CLAIM YOUR SUPERIORITY OVER ALL
THINGS THE MORE DO YOU REFLECT AN
INFERIORITY-so those who seek consolation
in the spiritual mysteries of the Bible are
different than those who disdain its wisdom.
Not long ago I sat on the edge of a waste
basket at DR.. Ader's feet and listened to his
views of life. Said he, Most humans seek some
one or some thing to lean upon" This explains
why the Bible ttrue untrue) is necessary. If
there had never been the birth of Christ, the
world would have had to imagine one because
of its great need. Man must believe in a Great
Spirit which guides and instructs in the in
stance of THE Burning Bush" and in Great
Power such as Aaron demonstrated in his rod.
No man can live completely alone and within
himself Every human problem is a social-spir-
itual problem. Every human problem concerns
not only one individual but also the society in
which that individual lives. Sheep herders of
ancient times were convinced that they talked
with God because man must communicate with

This is perhaps the greatest proof that
Higher Power exists-this inner communicative
