the first shooter ever to hold the
post that long. He richly deserves
this distinction. His shooting form
is easy, effortless and unhurried, yet
he breaks his targets quickly and
with a sense of sureness.
His 1887 record offers convincing
proof of his right to highest post in
skeetdom. He scored the greatest
winning streak the sport ever has
known. shooting in IS major cham

tered targets in the history of skeet.
Streak Follows Tie.
Kelly tied last year for runner-up
to high man in the New Jersey State

gan his amazing series Of important
victories. He won the Metropolitan

North Carolina open, the Eastern

mNRM IN nation WIDE POLL OWNERS Of low PRICE TRUCKS GUESS
DODGE PRICE Up To 35 MORE DODGE IS PRICED WITH THE LOWEST

DoDGE trucks have long been
l. famous for their engines. Un-
doubtedly that is one reason why
so many buyers in a recent national
poll over-estimated Dodge prices as
much as $13s.00. Yet Dodge trucks
are now priced with the lowest!
In this poll hundreds of owners Of
low-priced trucks were asked to
estimate prices of the low priced
trucks. We feel there is only one
reason why so many often greatly
over-estimated Dodge prices. That is
because they believed Dodge trucks
have greater value! Perhaps you,
too, have thought of Dodge trucks
as being worth more" or higher
priced" Then you, too, will welcome
the news that today there is only a
comparatively few dollars difference
in prices of the ow-priced trucks.
Try a Dodge before you buyrany
truck. Remember, many Dodge truck
owners report saving sos year on
gas alone" See your Dodge dealer.

CAPITAL Pros Present Hints
On Judging of Golf Distance

Any time you play strange golf
course you probably have trouble
Judging distance. but you can help
yourself to a better score and better
time if YOU use couple Of aids to
Judgment of distance which two of our
better pros employ. Usually most errors
in Judgment are made on the short
side by underplaying the shot or
taking q club too short. but strange
terrain and putting green's that are
not clearly defined confuse the average
golfer when he gets of his home lay
out.
They can help their scores and
themselves, says George Diffenbaugh,
by playing for the bunting on the pole
instead of the cup itself.
Most people, when they get on a
strange course, leave themselves short
of the green on their second shots or
shots that are supposed to reach the
green That's because they play for
the cup. If they would try to hit the
flag itself instead Of playing for the
base of the Flagstaff they'd achieve
better results and they'd have more
puts for brides. I have a lot of
trouble on a strange course judging
distance, but If I try to hit the bunting
on the flag find usually can get the
ball up"
Takes Look at Terrain.
Dave Thomson, Washington Golf
and Country Club pro. looks over the
terrain surrounding the green before
he plays his shot to the green.
Most modern courses have bunker
or strip of sand somewhere near the
