Winter Golf Training

Northern golfers are wondering
about the best methods Of building
up q better game for next year.
since hope still springs eternal in
the golfing breast.
One method 10 the indoor school.
Another can be used in the home
apartment. provided there is space
enough to swing a club.
This latter method calls for build
ing up the left hand and the left
arm. The idea Is to keep swinging
the club only with the left hand
ON the shaft, the right hand out Of
play altogether. It will be surpris-
ing at first to learn how weak and
ineffective the left hand, left wrist
and left arm feel. This form Of
exercise is . good way to build up
and develop the weaker hand and
arm that should play a big part In
any correct swing.
One common weakness among
most golfers Is the collapse of the
left hand and wrist before impact,
as the right hand takes control
Right-hand action is important, but
there also must be strong support
ing left hand and left side to keep
the club face on its proper line.
This same brand Of exercise also
helps to increase the left side turn
that left shoulder and left hip,
especially, which are usually left
behind.

Warns Md. Motorists

Inspected By Dec. Is

Commissioner of Motor Vehicles
w. Lee Elgin this week warned
the 100000 Marylanders who owl
automobiles or trucks that their
machines must be inspected by De-
cember Is. This annual inspection
of Maryland motor vehicles was
started on November 1, at numer-
GUS service stations and garages

"Only small percentage of mo-
florists have responded to the call
for inspection which is required by
law" Mr.. Elgin stated.

ID EFORE the 1941 football CAM
- paign in the Midwest reached
the halfway point it was quite
definitely established as a sopho-
mores' season.
Just about every major team in
the Western conference area has at
least one star sophomore. Many
have more than one. Already some
of them are known from one end
OF the country to the other. They
have pitted their brains and Drawn
against veterans and haven't been
found wanting.
Mighty Minnesota has two of
them-Bud Higgins, the breakaway
back, and Bill Garnaas, the big lad
who calls the Gopher shots. Gar
mas is being rated as the ablest sig.
nal caller Minnesota has known
since Glenn Seidel held that post in
1884. Higgins part in the recent
Northwestern tilt was enough to
earn everlasting glory for the Mad
Midget"
Michigan has Tom Kuzma, q 200
pound triple-threat performer. In
the Wolverines first four games
Kuzma scored five touchdowns and
passed for two more. Ten times in
the Michigan State, Iowa and North
western games Tom booted the ball
out of bounds inside the opponents
15-yard line.
Angelo Bertelli was the first
sophomore in many year to open
the season as No. / left halfback for
Notre Dame. His passing has been
superb. In his first four varsity
games Bertelli completed 26 out Of
Al passes for 1893 almost 100
yards a game.
Otto Graham, sophomore left half
back for Northwestern, is a thing OF
beauty and joy forever to Coach
"Pappy" Waldorf. He started the
season by returning Kansas State
punt 80 yards for touchdown, scor-
ing twice more in the same game.
He scored twice against Wisconsin
and made the Wildcats only points
against Michigan.
Bill Hillenbrand of Indiana is an
other highly touted sophomore who
didn't let his hackers down. Early
season dope had him as the out
standing sophomore of the season.
That point may be argued, but the
fact remains that Hillenbrand is
completely dangerous on the foot
ball field. Texas Christian will tes-
tify to that fact.
There are plenty of others. His
Ohio State coaches claim that Lynn
Houston, sophomore guard, makes
fewer mistakes than any Of their
linemen. Pat Harder of Wisconsin
is a driving fullback with power,
speed and quicksilver elusiveness.
Bob Johnson Of Purdue was the
starting center in his first college
football game. He played the full 60
minutes of that game. Successive
contests have proved him to be q
really top-notch lineman.

does not have State owned and op-
Grated inspection stations as do
New Jersey and the District of
Columbia. During the past several
months there have been a large
increase in registrations in Mary
land. due to the defense work be-
ing carried on here. In a great
number of cases, old cars that have
been ruled off the highways of
neighboring states are being sold
here for transportation of workers.
These vehicles are not safe and
should be junked, but until we have
State operated stations it will be
a problem to cope with this serious
situation.

The Hot StOUe

Even the loud noises that rise
from SO many packed football

can slow them down. and Joe NC

NEW YORK. May Silt is a

national emergency, one of the most
important effects of which was to

was dead.
How far the normal, day-to-day

importance for every American.
