COACHES SEEK
 HERMAN DOPE
Mentor Tops Fac- ulty List for Courses on
 Sports June I5-2O
By GERALD LISKA United Press Staff Correspondent.

Minneapolis, June II tU.PD-Atn- letic coaches of the nation who want to learn how it's done--in cham pionship style--will visit Coach Ber- nie Bierman, mentor of the best football team in the country, at the University of Minnesota coaching school, June l5 to 20.
 Approximately 250 students" will spend five days assimilating the methods of training and technique offered by able instructors in nine courses, but the branch that has att tracted athletic directors, physical department heads and coaches from 27 states and Canada, will be the one conducted by the gray -haircd majordomo of the Gopher grid jug gernaut which has spread-eagled the field for three years.
 Bierman's class in football will top the curriculum of athletics, which includes basketball, track, baseball, swimming, recreational games, athletic training, wrestling and tennis.
 Live Models Promised
 Dr. George Hauser, Gopher line coach, will be Bierman's chief aide in the football course. Live mod els" from the Gopher team will be used to illustrate the lectures and discussions presented by Herman, who is one of the strongest advo- cates of fundamentals and rudemen- tary play in the game to-day.
 Baseball, another sport in which Minnesota has been remarkably pro- ficient, having won the Big Ten Conference title twice in the past three years, will have as it's head master Frank G. Mccormick, Min nesota athletic director. Mccormick will stress offensive team strategy and position play.
 Two of the Northwest's leading basketball coaches will combine to offer the instruction in that sport. They are Dave McMillan, whose Minnesota team was a stumbling block to Conference teams last year, and J. D. Kelly, director of athlet- ics and head coach of De Paul Uni- versity, Chicago. De Paul was one of the leading free-lance quartets in the Middle West last winter.
 Course on Conditioning
 Athletic training, including a study of the conditioning of athletes and the treatment of injuries, will be under the instruction of Dr. L. J. Cooke, assistant director of athlet- ics, and Dr. Hauser. pr. Cooke,

Experts Favor Tight Grip


 A concensus of opinions from leading players has shown that the majority favor gripping the racket tightly while stroking. A great many errors in tennis come from gripping the racket too loosely in the hand at the instant the ball is hit. If the ball is hit even slightly of the center of the racket-face, and this is inevitable at times, the impact will cause the racket to turn in the hand, ruining the stroke.
 Some few players recommend relaxing Che grip during the pre- liminary back swing, then tight enlng 1t just as the racket comes into the ball. This method may, to some extent relieve the tension of the forearm and fingers, but it is not as safe and reliable as firm grip throughout the entire swing. One must admit, that re. gardless of how we'll we keep our eyes on the ball, there are times when we fail to connect with 1t right on the nose" and . wood shot is the result. Some misjudgement is often caused by an uneven court surface, which produces an inaccurate bounce, but ln most cases the balls which we hit on the frame of the racket come as the result of not kepelng our eyes on the ball long enough. It is then that . tight grip on the racket will O9tentimes turn . freakish hit into . safe return shot.
 Grip at End
 One other outstanding fault among beginners, is their tendency to grip the racket part way up the handle. This not only decreases the necessary amount of leverage for a good swing, but causes the player to push, rather than swing the rack ct. Always. grip the racket at the extreme end of the handle; firmly, with the leather butt of the handle resting snugly against the heel of the hand.
