At heart. of course, the fight man

light fingered fellow he always was,
deriving his greatest relish from the
business OF outsmarting somebody
else. He doesn't expect to be in the

keeps from starving, and has q new
fighter ready or on the make to take
the place Of the old one, he is fairly
happy.

High Spots Of 1886.

The opening game of the world
series supplied the setting for
- one Of base balls main tests
a great pitcher facing an array OF
, great hitters. Carl Hubbell against
the Yankees-the master of the
double -iointed screw ball against
Gehrig and Di Maggie and the rest
of that wrecking crew.
The dope was that Hubbell would
win. Not only because Carl Is great
pitcher. but because his unusual de-
livery gives him an edge on any club
facing him for the first time. Hub
bell isn't the only screw ball propeller
in base bali. but none of the others
can match him in effective use OF 1t.
They use 1t now and then just to con-
fuse the hitters. Carl uses 1t in the
clutches.
The experts said that the
Yankees would beat the Giants
in the series-but that Hubbell
would win the opening game.
Everybody knew Hubbell would
pitch the opening game, of course
They knew 1t as soon as the Giants
had cllnched the pennant. Bill Terry
didn't have to waste any time over
his pitching selection for the first
skirmiSh.
The day before the game Joe Nc
Carthy announced that Red Rufhng
was going to pitch for the Yankees
Joe wasn't going to waste" a pitcher
lust because the Giants were going to
call on Hubbell He was going to
make it as close as he could, because
Big Red is a pretty good pitcher, too,
and, If he got break. he might win.
Still, the odds were on Hubbell as the
big day dawned.

Swings Fundamentally Same.


THE only difference between EN- Is
that where Tommy, with those
powerful mitts. can hit q bali ITS
yards with his hands alone, Bob. with
less powerful hands and considerably
less stature must get his body into the
ball to get the benefit of weight and
leverage.
And both Of 'em agree that the
body must be brought back into the
address position as the ball Is struck
and that the hands must flick through
the ball.
Fundamentally the golf swing is the
same with every good player. All the
theories must center around one point:
That at the moment of impact the
club head lis travelling in q straight
line and with maximum velocity. In
this, both hands and body must work
together. They do in the case OF
both Armour and Barnett.

back from a hunting trip these
days. However, this department has
located hunter who finds game bet
ter this year than it has been for the
past half dozen seasons.
The optimistic nimrod is G. s. Woods
Of Seat Pleasant, Md. He has done
his hunting all over the State and has
found 1t very good. especially In the
southern part and more especially in
Prince Georges County. He has shot
plenty of quail, some rabbits and even
few woodcock. His bag for the latter
delicacy so far this season is eight,
which isn't so bad considering how
rare they have become.
Among the lucky hunters
who reported q deer killed dur
ing Maryland's abbreviated sea-
son was w. p. McCoughey Of
Tak0ma Park.
His specimen was q 10-point buck,
captured on December at Swallow
Falls in Garrett County. All reports
have not been tabulated yet. but in
dications are that the kill this year
is below that Of last.

SPEAkING of deer kill, West Vir-
ginia's official report lists 23s bucks
taken during the three-day season
there. The Conservation Commission
has ordered 80 more deer, making q
total OF 180 which will be stocked for
next years hunting. Delivery will be
made in few weeks. or as soon as the
snow Is deep enough in the preserves
for keepers to catch or trap them.
Forty deer are coming from Michi-
gan, 20 from Missouri, 20 from pri-
vate reserve in Greenbrier County and
the remainder from Pennsylvania.
Rabbits to the number of 1000 also
have been ordered for release in coun-
ties where their sale is prohibited. At

in placing these orders because Of

Armour Uses Body, Too.

TOMMY claims and consistently has
taught that all golf ball action Is
controlled by the hand action. as who
wouldn't with q pair of hands like
those Of the Armour. A brace of
sinewy, strong hands like his can fin
a club head through a golf ball with
minimum Of body action, but don't
ever think that Tommy doesn't use
plenty of body work in his swing. He
does, and he'd be the last to deny it.
But Bob Barnett, with small, strong
nands, uses a different appearing
method. Bob uses more body pivot
than Tommy and less hand action.
but actually at the moment OF meet
ing the ball the hand and body ac-
tion Of these two masters Of the game
Is the same.
II you concede that the whole idea
OF the address in golf is to bring the
hitting sector of the club head into
the same position it had at the sd.
dress, you can see how close are the
Ideas Of Tommy and Bob. For both

date for Vice President of the

sociation, who said after being in
formed that Prof. Ericsson had been
present with other white persons
at dinner in Ford's hotel suite
after he had heard Ford make a
speech in public: 81 believe uni
versity professor should enjoy the
right of freedom of speech and Ii
berality of thought. AS matter of
fact, it is his duty to do so, but
when a faculty members's conduct
and philosophy of life becomes so
opposed to American tradition, es-
pecially to Southern tradition, as to
be offensive to the sensibilities of
the thousands cf umni and to the
taxpayers of the state then it is
time for the university administra-
tion to start a general houseclean-
ing. l can see no place in the fac
