ideas ever will be used. but the

will be seated in special section

some more attention.
Golf may be affected now the
racing ban is ended :. Some
of the golfers who ordinarily
would be playing golf in normal
times. finding equipment and
transportation difficulties too big
to surnount. probably will hop a
streetcar TO the race tracks.

NEW YORK, May 9 GNS)-
Intersectional competition got
under way in the big leagues in
full swing today with a furry OF
speculation sweeping both major
circuits as to the probable impli-
cations of We Day on the base
ball manpower situation.
As a result Of Washington'S an
nouncement that 100000 men
soon would be discharged from
the army. it was expected that
several hitherto weak clubs would
be bolstered by the return of for
mer stars from the service. On

that many players IN the higher

Better Golf
THE COMPLETE GRIP
(This is the third of a series Of illustrated golf
lessons by Snead hrch WiH appear daily the sports
pages OF The Detroit Tir1es.)
BY SAM SNEAD
Coils Great Teacher and Player

You'll remember yesterday
we pictured the correct left-hand
grip on the golf club.
Today we add the right hand
and show both hands in a COM
pleted grip. /
In the position pictured you
will realize that you maintain
the grip particularly with the
little finger of the left hand
(the thumb and forefinger Of
the left hand and the thumb
and forefinger Of the right
hand.)
The left hand is welded to the
right hand by the little finger of
the right hand overlapping the
forefinger of the left hand.
The two hands are further
welded together by the heel of
the right hand firmly pressing
against the thumb Of the left
hand. Thus the two hands work
as one.
While the club is firmly held
by the fingers Of the left hand,
it must be without tightening up
the muscles of the forearm. Use
just enough pressure 80 that

On his blouse were a half dozen

pretty well banged up. He had a

he had been burned maybe but

But he read the eyes and ex-
