much hope for his use, while Ed

good by playing last Sunday, one

Their absence means the Redskins
will have just four tackles available
for duty. although Center Vic Car
roll probably could fill in in pinch.
The 25l-pound Bill Young, third
heaviest Redskin. has been nomi-
mated by Flaherty to start at the
tackle, position left vacant by Will
kin and Edwards, with Jim Barber
opening at his regular post at right
tackle. Bo Russell and the South
ern California rookie, Bob Fisher,
will serve as the Redskins second

has expressed satisfaction with the
work of both.

are thousands who will be headed

Swoy One Of Misunderstood
Golf Terms, Soys Burke

Billy Burke was talking about the
sway in golf.
This is one of the misunderstood
terms in golf" the former champion
and one Of the best instructors said.
Il sway. Most of us sway. You have
to sway a little. But my first sway
is really lateral hip shift. I sway
from my left hip to my right before
I start to turn. But the upper part
of my body doesn't sway. My head
doesn't sway-or even move.
THE trouble with too many golf
ers," Burke continued, sis that they
sway the wrong way. They sway
with the upper part Of the body
They let their heads drift with the
swing. When this happens the back
swing is all gone, and so is the
downswing. There is neither power
nor control left. When the upper
part of the body-above the waist.
including the head-starts to sway
or shift. the swing then is completely
wrecked. For all balance is de-
stroyed.
I've watched thousands after
thousands try to hit a golf ball in
this way, but it can't be done. 1t
isn't even possible. even if Hagen
or a Jones tried it,
Billy is just 100 per cent cor
rect" Horton Smith cut in. For
the good golfer 1 wouldn't exactly
call it sway. But there is sway
ing hip motion from the left hip
to the right, before you turn. But
only the hips are involved in this
first motion. The second the
shoulders and head sway with this
motion you are all through. You
might call it a left to right bend
in the middle of the body, but not
in the top of the body.
Certainly the head must be fixed
in one spot-the anchor to the
swing. But don't let that head move
an inch until after the ball is on
its Way."

It's Quite Simple, to Heir
Horton Proposed Sway

What follows alter the hip sway
or shift?" asked Horton Smith.
That starts the backswing," he
said. Then the next move is a
natural body turn. 1t is really quite
simple. After the first lateral hip
motion, where the major part OF
the weight now is on the right foot
and leg, the next move is to let
the left side turn. Just as if you
were throwing ball. The left knee
the left hip, the left shoulder all
come around together. In this way
at the top of the backswing you
have a feeling both of control and
power.
You now are in position to use
your hands and wrists, in place OF
trying to call on your shoulders and
your body for most of the punch.
What so few golfers understand
Horton Smith continued, lis that
bad foot and bad body action can
lock the hands and wrists.
"Of course, the feet and body
belong to the swing. But they must
be used so the hands and wrists
are free to swing the clubhead.
Don't let them get in the way. Don't
let them lock the swing.
I'm the average swing you see
so many golfers first dig their feet
into the ground, then lock both
legs, then sway the upper part of
the body. They can't move any
thing else. But If first they take
the lateral hip shift or sway-left
to right-keep the head in place
and then take a natural body
turn, they will be all set to get
much better results"

Golf Is Two Honded Come,
But Left Is Neglected

I asked Billy Burke about the
correct use of the two hands.
1--WE all have to teach and advo-
cate the use of the left hand more"
he said.
I'll tell you why. Golf is really
a two-handed game. But with the
average golfer it is only a one
handed game-I mean he right
hand. Here you have the stronger
hand hitting forward. So in too
many cases the right hand just
overpowers the left hand. It Is a
natural action. But If the left
hand quits in golf there is neither
control nor power left.
Most golfers don't have to worry
about the right hand. It will be
getting in there-usually too quickly.
So just think about the left hand,
the left wrist and the left arm
sticking to the job all the way
through the swing. Don't let it quit
on you. Keep the left hand and
left wrist firm and also active.
Then when the right hand finally
comes to give you greater club
head speed you have two hands
working together.
80 the golfer must concentrate
more on the left hand and left
wrist than on the right. This goes
for every one playing golf"
Along the Northern belt the trail
Of the outdoor campaign soon will
be leading to the indoor schools or
to the sun. But there still is time
enough left to try out one Of the
soundest ideas in the game-which
includes largely head that always

Young Men Urged
To Join G.. C.. C.

The Big Horn County Depart
ment of Public Welfare urges
young men between the ages OF
II and "a, inclusive, to call at
it's office and learn about the
CCC program.
Various pamphlets, which will
explain the different phases and
advantages of the CCC, are
available to interested persons:
Among the many activities OF
the corps is reforestation. Since
1888, boys in the CCC have
planted more than two billion
young trees. Decadent, crooked
diseased and worthless trees
have also been removed from
the existing forests. The enrol
lees learn how to prepare tree
nurseries and how to plant trees
while engaged in a needed &C
tivity.
The CCC has also played a
large role in protecting forests
from fire. insects and disease.
OF special value has been the
fire control work. More than
5000, 600 man-davs have been
spent in this sort of work.
Boys have learned what the
conservation of soil is and have
been trained in farm land man
agement through demonstra-
lions and sample work for the
government solid conservation
program.
In the western district of
the United States the CCC has
been particularly active since
April of 1885 in the improve
ment and development of pub
lie range lands through building
reservoirs, developing water
holes, springs and wells, build
ing drift fences and %corrals,
stopping range erosion and re-
vegetation of depleted ranges.
One of the greatest ccntribu-
tons made by the CCC has been
in the field of outdoor recrea-
ton. In addition to help to
construct and maintain state,
county and municipal parks,
the corps has carried out for
est and soil conservation, built
sanitary and visitor accomoda-
ton facilities. constructed brid-
i ges. dams and trails for the ma
tional park service.
CCC enrollees have ample IA
cilities for outdoor recreation,
it was pointed out, and may
! thus build character and health.
| Lately the attention of the
country has been centered on
national defense. The CCC con-
tribution to this cause, officials
say, at present will come largely
through training young men
in the operation of mechanical
equipment, radio communica-
ton and other useful activities.
The CCC also trains radio men,
mechanics, cooks, truck drivers,
tractor operators. Photographic
developers, clerks and others.
It has taught its enrolles how
to build bridges, roads, dams
