Pacific Coast
Golf Slicker
Explains Game
BY CAL CAMPBELL

SAN FRANCISCO, May l8. lUFD
Art Bell. one of the Pacific slopes
outstanding golfers. pitched some
high, hard ones today at the school
of thought which cloakS the Royal
and ancient paStime wit mysterious
accents, insofar as instruction is
concerned.
"Simplicity-that's the watch
word" said Bell, then elaborated on
several methods he successfully has
taught for number of years.
The San Francisco golf and coun-
try club professional pointed out
that many beginners lose their in
centive when the game is presented
as deep, dark mystery. Their
teachers go through a monotonouS
rigamarolc about keeping the head
down. the left arm and right leg
stiff, the back swing slow and other
axiomS until the pupil wishes he'd
taken UP some other form of relax
alton.
"STARTING POINT
The starting point in golf. of
course. must be the grip Bell said
and described this simply and clear
ly in this fashion: Three knuckles
on the left hand should show after
the club has been taken into hand.
Those knuckleS are the first three
The thumb and index finger close
around the club firmly but not
tightly.
The right-hand grip is entirely
in the index finger and thumb,
Both thumbs are straight up on
top of the shaft. All pressure is on
the outSide-in the three fingers of
the left hand at the top of the club
and in the thumb and index finger
of the right = the fartheSt point
down the shaft. This gives freedom
in breaking the wrists at the top Of
the swing
Bell recommends taking thc club
head straight back away from the
ball and low behind it only as far
as this can be done in comfort to
the player without any stretching
The backsWing is com mpleted in the
smoothest and most natural man
ner possible to the player, standing

With our great developed

that the American merchant ma

Way to Security.
In order to maintain a strong,
adequate and efficient merchant ma

economic security it will be neces-
sary that at the earliest possible

the chief factor in maritime trans

days when it was foremost in car
rying American flag service into all

only be assured by the most careful
planning at this time. He pointed
out that already there are four or

Series Of Recommendations.
In order to aid these organiza-
tions in their work, the American
Merchant Marine Institute has
brought out series of recommen-
dations on postwar shipping policies
These, Mr.. Taylor said. represent
the result of several months of study
by the Institutes board of directors
Since major role in postwar
affairs will be an "inescapable neces-
sity' for the United States, in order
to promote peace and stabilize in
ternational conditions" the institute
asserts. the United States must
maintain a merchant marine ade-
quate for national defense and eco
nonic security.
Factors in Situation.
At the end of the war, the in
stitute asserts, the United States
will have:
A preponderance of the world S
ocean-going commerce.
A trained and competent sea-
going personnel of United States
citizens, entirely adequate for the
operation of such feet.
A large number of long -estab-
lished ship-owning companies which
have demonstrated outstanding
ability to provide efficient manage
ment for such fleet.
In turning over, on a practicable
basis, Government-owned ships to
private operators after the war, the
institute takes the position that
preference should be given ito those
owners and operators who main
tanned American flag services prior
to the war
A fixed national shipping policy
faithfully followed, it Is asserted
together with improved results
from expanded operations, will
provide the inducement to attract
private capital to an industry
which is already one. of the most
important to the Nation and which
promises to become one Of the
largest as we'll"
Mr.. Taylor said one Of the mat
ters which should be dealt with
directly at the peace table is the
question of the disposition of Axis
shipping routes after the war.
These, he said, will naturally be
attractive to all the Allied powers
which have large shipping indus
tries. But such lines as directly
concern the security of the United
States, he asserted, should be given
over to shipping owners of this
country.
He asserted that he had special
reference to the Japanese services
to the American West Coast, and
to German lines in the same area.
These, he said, proved to be
especially valuable to the enemy in
this war, providing bases for espi-
onage.
