81 should say the delay in hit
ting too quickly from the top of
the swing is the third important
fundamental" Ouimet said The
average golfer, which means over
80 per cent of all who play, is much
too anxious to hit the ball. He
thinks only in terms of his down.
swing. He overlooks the fact that
a correct backswing is needed be-
fore there can be good down.
swing. AS result, thousands of
golfers start their downSWings well
before they have finished the back
swing. This is one of the most COM
mon faults in golf.
Now one answer to this is to
thirk-first, in terms of the back
swing-I mean the even pace of the
cluhhead-I mean hip action and
shoulder turn-I mean the fixed
head.
From this point on never feel
that YOU are in any great hurry to
hit the ball. The doWnswing must
be started without any rush. 1t
must start smoothly and then pick
up speed. The right hand, which
causes most of the trouble, must be
watched. 1t is the strong hand
hitting forward, and 1t wants to
overpower the left.
You must give the left hand and
left wrist and left arm the chance
to do part of the work Even a brief
delay at the top won't hurt"

the final to be held Immediately

All maple plants in Metropolitan

nection with the Yuletide event.
Herb Sachs Del Rios were too

Shaffer Flower Shop last night at
Convention Hall in the Annual
Christmas charity fund matches,
winning by 159 pins. Astor Clark's
416 paced the Del Rios scroe of 1889.
While Clarke later shot the top
set of the evening, 424, to triumph
over Bill Krauss, Rosslyn star. by SO
pins, Lucy Rose stole the show at
the beginning when she smothered
the 1874 singles effort of Lorraine
GULL with rousing AIT set
After climaxing her first string of
140 with double-heade strike
Mrs. Rose produced the big thrill of
the night when she wound up her
second game of 160 with a triple
header strike. Her last game was
lit.
The Del Rio doubles combination
of Hokie Smith and Ed Blakeney
came through with 787 count to
trim the Shaffer tWosome of Milton
Walker and George Demeres by 60
sticks before Ollie Pacini could save
the Shaffer aggregation from being
completely routed by winning a
singles setto from Tony Santini, 42O
to 361. Pacini, with 20 pins in his
final box, fell one pin shy of equal
ing the brilliant splash of Mrs. Rose.

Elvin Shank, who for years has
tried without success to win the
District horseshoe title, today
lorded 1t over the ringer flippers,
after fashion. At any rate, he's
their champion bowler.
In the oldest duckpln competi-
ton of the season, Shank yesterday
won the annual ringer flippers'
maple tournament staged by Bill
Wood at the Lucky Strike, with
Harry Woodfield directing play.
Shank, member of the Brookland
team of the District League, fired
696 from scratch for five games to
top a sizable field of plain and
fancy, not to speak of funny
boWlers.
Each contestant shot his opening
box with pair of rubber horse
shoes. Shank thus gathered four
sticks. The first-frame leader was
Jules Bernard, who slid the shoes
for spare.
Ed Nash, a s:ar pinman and
coming along as a ringer f1ipper,
was second with a scratch 616.
Special prize winners were Ed
Henry, for most spares; Ed
Baranowski and George Boyer, tied
for most strikes, and Talma r.
Smith, most perfect fiat boxes.
A lone woman entry, Miss Edna
M. RieboW, shot 60-429-489.
Shank will receive the Bill Wood
trophy. Other prizes were pairs of
horseshoes. The horseshoe twirlers
tournament is held as a side feature
of the annual Evening Star Yuletide
Handicap, the qualification round of
