When the Rambler read
yesterday that seven had

It's true that he Is much
older than the successful

mean that he doesn't want
to go places.
He was sulking at his desk
when the cheerio voice OF a
press agent chirped over the
telephone.

why don't you come out to
Glen Echo and try the satel-

The Rambler managed to
get up to the Avenue, hailed

Several common mistakes
which take place in a bowler's
follow-through can affect his
whole delivery Of the ball.
First, if you find your right
hand winding up over your left
shoulder as illustrated, you're
probably pulling the ball across
your body or side-arming it as
you release it. In an effort to
put additional stuff" on the
ball. you are actually hurting
your control.
Try bringing your arm
straight out in front of your
body and about eye level, to
correct this fault.
Another error many bowlers
make in the follow Through Is
that they stop the arm at the
release Of the ball, then sud-
denly continue the follow
through. This false follow
through results from momen.
tarily stopping the arm action
at the point Of release and
then forcing the arm up with
a swapping or jerking motion.
The follow through should
be a natural sweeping continue
alton of your right arms move.
