Coach Ben Beck Is putting his men through the ga- nut of gridiron fundamentals during this first week of camp, in an at- tempt to bring to light primary ap- titudes as well as faults. Both morn- Ing and afternoon conditioning ex- ereises include routine grass drills offensive tactics, forward passing tackling, and bunting, The approach h of the opening game against Will Hams on September 25 will force the Panther mentor to rapidly tighten up on his drills next week.
 Thirteen sophomores are In camp this fall to replace graduation cas- ualties. Last years freshman rec- ords indicate that most of the begin- ners' strength lies in the forward line with only John Mahoney oi North Adams, Mass, as a likely can didate for a back position, Others who will be working for berthS on the varsity squad include: Charles Conley, Cornwall: Arthur Calm Richmond Hill, N. r.; George Da- wis, Lowville, N. r.; Porter Evans West Orange, N.

Use Putter in Shallow, Firm Traps But Be Sure to
 Stand Close to Ball
By ART KRENZ NEA Service Golf Writer

Just prior to the British Open of 1928 Archie Compston, English pro, defeated Walter Hagen l0 and IT in a 36-hole match.
 It was the worst beating ever handed the "Haig" and many be- lieved his competitive days were over. But a few days later he won the British Open with 2o2 while the best Compston could do was finish third. scoring 295.
 Many players use the butter to get out of sand traps. It Is advisable only where the trap Is shallow, the ground firm, and the slope to the green long and not steep.
 Tn attempting suah e shot, stand close to the ball. Careful judgment must be used SO that the bah will travel through the heavy grass bordering the putting green.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
II plan to be married soon. in
the evening, in church. Since my
parents object to the marriage,
and refuse to attend the cere-
mony, would like to know in
what part of the church the
wedding should take place.
"Also, is it necessary to have
someone give the bride in mar.
riage, and, in this case, who
should be asked to do this?
1--WE plan to have only eight
or ten of our closest friends
present at the wedding. Will
this be all right?
THANK YOU"
The person who is best fitted
to answer these questions is the
minister who is going to per-
form the ceremony. So I sug-
gest that you and the groom-to-
be go to see him, and get his
recommendations about what to
do under the circumstances you
set forth.

Children
Check Contrary
Tendencies
BY GLADYS BEVANs

When an adored and very
pretty bright little daughter
reaches the age of three, also
she very often reaches the con-
clusion that she is a young
queen. BY trial and error and
experience and this and that,
she gets to know just how much
power she has.
And does she use it? An en-
gaging baby girl Of three can
make her parents absolute
slaves. Any one who knows lit
tie children has gazed wide
eyed at their shrewd methods of
getting what they want.
WANT OWN WAY
Among the things they most
want are getting their own way
and monopolizing attention.
Sometimes this sort of thing
comes from just simple spoil
ing, and sometimes it comes
from lack of really vital play
interests and outlets for physical
energy.
OF course, one can never be
sure, but, reading between the
lines, it seems to me that the
following letter describes just
such an enchanting little despot
as this:
Dear Mrs. Bevans: Both my
husband and 1 are daily readers
of your column. We happen to
be the parents of an overintelli-
gent girl of three years. By over
intelligent I mean that the ordi-
nary of dos and don'ts for a
three-year-old won't suffice for
her.
Everything must be explained
as to why she must or must not
do a thing. Then when she finds
the reason she will go right
ahead and do the wrong thing
just to be vexing.
JUST CONTRARY"
IF she won't drink her milk
I have to say, Now, don't you
touch thatn She will immedi-
ately empty the glass. Can you
send me a leaflet on how to cure
perVerSeness in one so young?
We both have much patience
with her, but to no avail.
"She has in the past year be-
come a panty and bed wetter. I
thing she is physically all right
but just careless and too full of
play to ask to go to the toilet.
I'm so discouraged on this score
I could weep.
NEED EXPLAINING
1t is true that the highly intel
ligent child is often so busy with
her thoughts and her concerns
that she hates to take time out
to go to the bathroom. A little
clear explaining is needed; but
at this age the child's coopera-
ton must be gained.
Contrariness like this is really
only the result of mismanage-
ment. 1t might be pointed out,
too. that small children should
certainly not have every routine
thing explained to them each
time, though every aren't
should answer intelligently the
legitimate questions of a child.
With this baby girl a dose of
wholesome neglect and perhaps
a little more understanding of
her needs will do the trick.

NO LIFE APART
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
my sister was the brilliant
one in our family of four. After
we were through high school
she was sent to one Of the best
women's colleges in the country,
and made good in her PROBES
sion.
when she was % years old
she married a man none Of us
thought very much Of. He had
been a good deal Of a failure In
two positions, and was starting
on a third when sister married
him.
"He hasn't done well in that
either, and. the rest Of us are
distinctly tired Of helping them
out.
Sister has tried to get en-
ployment, but has never been
successful, which we think is due
to the fact that she's terribly
superior, not to say 'snooty,'
about taking a job that she
doesn't consider worthy Of her
education.
But she's not too proud to
be helped by her family, all OF
whom are working.
THE DUMB ONE"
If the facts are as related in
your letter, and sister declines
to take jobs because she feels
they're not in keeping with her
education, it might not be a
bad idea to let her go without
the family loans for a while.
Her husband, to whom she is so
devoted, seems to rate as a lux
ury, and one has to work to sup
port luxuries, unless they're in
herited, which is not true Of
husbands.

should manage a date with a

Sometimes I go with my girl

is proper? I go to her home

when she has a date, she will
ask me if want to go along,

to a new neighborhood.
And please stop thinking
about not being popular. If you
