DOCTORING
YOUR GOLF

BY DIR. CARY MIDDLECOFF
PATIENTS COMPLAINT:
Shots from uphill lies throw
me-"
DIAGNOSIS: Stance adjust
ment needed.
TREATMENT: To hit a golf
shot right, the bulk of the
weight must be shifted from
the right side of the left at
the downswing. This is hard
to do properly when you're
standing with the right foot
below the left, as you must when
the ball is on an uphill lie.
When you fail to shift the
left side on the downswing, the
tendency is to hit the ball very
high and pull it far to the left.
To avoid this, start the swing
with the weight predominantly
on the left leg, as is indicated
in today's illustration. This
will prevent you from over
shifting to the right side on
the backswing, and will help
you shift your weight to the
left side as you begin your
downswing for this uphill lie
shot.
Another thing: take q club
at least one number lower for
a shot from an uphill lie than
you would for a shot Of equal
distance from a level lie. Hit
ting from an uphill lie will
naturally cause the ball to go
higher and shorter.

uneven lies in my popular
pamphlet Tips for the Begin
ming Golfer" Get your copy

Clearing of Air Seen in Rap at Ruling
Offered by Noted Defender of Tribunal

States as the institution
which must decide cases in
the jurisdiction specifically
prescribed by the laws of
Congress and by the provi-
sions of the Constitution. But
every critic feels he has a
right to point out faulty rea-
soning of the justices.
The case which aroused
the criticism of the New
York Times concerned two
employees of the State of Cali
fornia who were dismissed
under an ordinance which
says they must be fired if
they decline to testify before
a congressional committee
concerning subversion. They
had invoked the Fifth
Amendment and thereby re-
fused to tell about alleged
subversive Affiliations.
In another instance in
volving New York State laws,
known as the Slochower
case, the Supreme Court of
the United States had ruled
in 1856 that State employees
could not be dismissed under
a law that said that such
employees who invoked the
Fifth Amendment would lose
their jobs. The Times said in
its editorial:
Instead of specifying that
employees who refuse to
testify at hearings because
of possible Self-incrimination
must be dismissed, the Cali
fornia law requires dismissal
OF any persons who decline to
testify for any reason.
This distinction without a
difference was seized upon by
the majority to distinguish
Mondays decision from the
Slochower case. But for all
practical purposes, the latter
must now be regarded as a
dead letter. If a State or city
is wise enough to avoid put
ting the term 'self-incrimina-
ton explicitly in the law, it
is free to punish employees
who exercise a privilege
granted to them as citizens

Criticizing Court Decisions

stitution. The courts retreat
Is regrettable :"
But shouldn't every public
employer be permitted to fire
any employe who is incom-
patible with other employees
or inefficient without giving
any reason? The Supreme
Court of the United States in
the famous Myers case in
1925, for instance, upheld the
right of the President to fire
a postmaster or any other
Government employe at a
time when Congress had not
specified or limited the
grounds for removal.
The question in the cur
rent case is whether a State
may dismiss an employe who
refuses to testify at con-
gressional hearings. Plainly
the employees had a right to
test the constitutionality of
the California law. They
were in a sense resisting" it,
as they had the privilege of
doing, though Southerners
who test court orders are
usually described as defy
ing the law" and as engaging
in massive resistance"
There can be no doubt that
the Supreme Court in this
case changed its mind be-
cause it felt the facts were
different-the two laws were
not worded the same way.
But what shall be said of a
Supreme Court that merely
reverses itself when the facts
and constitutional principles
are identical and explains it
all away by a statement de-
claring that whatever was
the psychology" prevalent at
the time of the previous de-
cislon must now be re-
versed"? This was the ground
for the 1854 desegregation
decision.
Perhaps those who have
been unwilling to see the risks
involved in reversals by the
court when the same princi-
pie has already been built
into established law now will
adopt a more charitable at
titude toward the critics who
have taken the high court to
task for its irregularities.

Commenting on a decision
this week by our highest
court, the following state
ment has been made in criti-
cism:
"A performance of this kind
deprives the Supreme Court
of the intellectual respect it
needs now more than it ever
did, in these demanding
times"
Who says this? Does it come
from one of the critics who
has been lamenting the deci-
sionS of the Supreme Court
on States rights, communism,
the Fifth Amendment and
so on? Is it a pronounce
ment by a committee of the
American Bar Association or
of the Conference of State
Supreme Court Justices? Or
is it an exclamation by some
of the many lawyers and
judges who have come to the
conclusion that the Supreme
Court has uSurped legisla-
tive functions?
Not at all. The criticism
quoted above was made this
week in an editorial in the
New York Times, which for
a long time has been one of
the foremost defenders Of
Supreme Court rulings.
1t so happens that the court
is right in this weeks decision
and doesn't deserve the blame
being heaped on it by those
who don't like the ruling.
But the Importance of the
criticism is that it clears the
air. 1t asserts, in effect,
that adverse comment on the
Supreme Court is not sin
ful. For, despite the i'm
preston that so many mis-
taken defenders of the courts
legislative rulings have sought
to convey in the past, criticism
of a court decision is not an
undermining of the insti-
tution"-the phrase so often
