Grip Highly Important.

TRY to take the clubhead from the
ball so the cace of the club is
square to the ball for at least five
inches Of the backswing. Have the
sensation that the clubface remains
on the ball for about eight inches
through the impact point.
Remember that the hands are the
only contact you have with the club
and the ball. so the correct grip is
important. Use plenty of hand action
and hold the club firmly through the
swing with the left hand as the guild
ing point.
On that width of feet point in the
address, it's noticeable in Lawson's
own game that his feet are closer to-
gether than the width of his shoulders.
Lawson Is a burly fellow with big
shoulders, but his feet aren't more
than 10 inches apart at the address.
Bob Jones, another broad-shouldered
lad, didn't spread his feet wide apart
when he was winning championships.
Bob explained that he could get q

PROS TIPS BACKED
BY LINKS WISDOM
Former Amateur King Keen
Student of Sport Since
His Rise to Fame.
BY w, r, McCALLUM.


" VERY ONE who plays golf will
l. concede that Lawson Little,
the burly Army officers son
IL who holds the Canadian open
championship and once held both the
American and British amateur titles,
knows . little bit about playing the
game. In less than year Is q paid
player he has won two big tourna-
ments-the Canadian open and the
San Francisco match-play affair.
He has learned a few things about
the game in his years Of campaigning
since 1929, when he was known as the
kid who beat the kid who licked Bobby
Jones-the lickee in that case being
John Goodman.
Here are few of Lawson's golf tips
tor buffers:
When playing in wind don't let
your tendency to hit the ball harder
get the better of you. Every error
committed In q wind becomes exagger-
ated. Concentrate on hitting the ball
squarely on the face of tn, club.
1cllS l1OW 70 AOOTe3S Dali.
IN ADDRESSING the ball. the feet
should be no farther apart than
the width of your shoulders. On the
backswing the weight is transferred
to the right heel and on the follow
through it passes over to the left heel
The address should be slow and de-
liberate. A quick. jerky waggle will
put the players mind on the wrong
tempo and make him swing fast. The
tempo Of a good golf swing is smooth
and fairly slow.
In an important match. concentra-
ton is the biggest single factor to be
considered. If you fail to get results
from one shot. concentrate on the next
one. Many a match has been pulled
out of the fire by brilliant recovery.
If the recovery is startling enough, 1t
probably will do you more good than
If you made the same score playing
the hole perfectly. Your opponent
may be thrown of his smooth mental
path and your own confidence will be
built up

Roper said the Government would

bring in steel from abroad by lower

gested by Labor Secretary Perkins.
He said he had recently suggested to
