. TRIPPING FOR PAR
Radius of Swing Fixed
 By Straight Left Arm
Fourth of 3e Illustrated arti- cles on instructive golf.
BY ART KRENZ NEA Service Gelf Writer

The left arm is the radius of the swing and measures the distance to the ball. Therefore it must be straight or nearly so throughout the swing. If the radius is altered the path of the clubhead is changed.
 This does not mean the left arm must be stiff or rigid. But it does mean 1t must be firm from the start of the backswing until 1t has come down to the ball.
 Many golfers allow the left arm to bend as the top of the back swing is reached. This is noted in gilfers who do not possess e com plete body turn, and is done to al- low the club to reach a horizontal position at this stage.
 To bend the arm is not wrong as long as at some time in the down. swing it is straightened, or returns to the same position it took at ad- dress. If not, the ball cannot be hit squarely.
