THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, JUNE 22 BRINGING JUST AS | UP, TRAP SHOOT HERE SUNDAY Juneau Shotgun Expert Misses Only Two “Birds” in 75 L. F. Morris, after resting for three years, decided to go down to the old trap grounds Sunday and see if he could still break clay pigeons. After shooting twenty-five he found he had scored one miss; ing fifty he had just one miss; after shooting seventyrfive he had two misses. Mr. Morris had missed his seventh and fifty-ninth bird, a run | of fifty-two consecutive hits. The first free shoot of the season went to Mr. Morris. The double event was also an ex- hbition of his skill as he led this event with a score of twenty out of a possible twenty-four. Hoffman, second high for the daj marked: “The trouble of us is that we are overtrained.” Individual scores from each twen- ty-five birds were: Morris Hoffman Blanton Hudson Truesdell Daniel McNaughton Carter Triplette Rhode, Clarence Brown, R. R. Johnson Nowell 25 24 0N BE8R w2 Se=88 ®owo Doubles Event Individual scores for each twenty- four were L. F. Morris Truesdell Hoffman Hudson SPORT SLANTS Like the little hoy wiio waistles in the dark to bolsier up his morale at trying times, many top-notch athletes chatter to themselves in the thick of competition. Follow the field in any big golf tournament— like the National Open—and you will notice that half the club swing- ers prod themselves along with ver- bal lashings. Paul Runyan's approach putt stops short of the pin. “Hit it, you coward, hit it!” Or, when a putt fails to drop by the smaliest of mar- gins, Paul pipes up with, “Howdy do.” Henry Picard talks to the ball in flight and in the most approved golf fashion applies the old body- English in an effort to control a fast breaking hook or slice. Don't let the sight of a flock of golfers talking to themselves alarm you. They are perfectly harmless unless you try to edge in on their monologues. If they have the idea that the running fire of conversa- tion helps their game, they very likely do better when talking to themselves. It's all mental. 20 15 13 13 BITSY'S BANTER On the tennis courts Bitsy Grant never stops talking. up on Bitsy for a single moment. “Migosh Bitsy!” “Let's go now, Bitsy!” And sometimes even strong- er expletives pour forth from his lips in the beat of battle, much to the amusement of the spectators. Marcel Rainville, the Canadian ten- nis star, coaches himself through a match. Sometimes in French, and sometimes in English, and then again in a broken combination of both he encourages himself with vomething like this: “Come on, babes, you win for after shoot- | He never lets! UP FATHER CLOSET- HOW OF- TEN MUST | TELL YO\JN GIT_OUT OF THAT THAT | DON T _YOU TO BE TONY MANERO WAS “HOT" THE THREE DAYS OF THE YEAR— - THAT'S WHY HE IS~ THE NATIONAL— OPEN CHAMPION WHICH COUNT MOST IN GOLF was K/GHT THE DAY THE KENTUCKY OERSBY [/ WAS RUN Marcel.” He will follow a success- ful volley with, “You are doing fine, Marcel—keep up the good work and you will win.” A few years ago New York Uni- versity had a fair runner. He was performing in his specialty on the home field and before his friends. But things were not going as well as they might have. Perhaps the competition was a little more than he could handle. At any rate, as he swept past the stands thirty yards behind the speed- ing leaders, it was quite evident that he was making a valiant ef- fort to spur himself to greater ef- fort. “Get going, you yellow soandso, and go after those guys,” he fairly shouted at himself. A classmate in the stands came back with a bite of sage advice when he called to the passing athlete, “if you would stop talking long enough to catch your breath you might be able tc'stay up with the leaders.” DIZZY DISCOURSES—ON 'DEAN Conversation has a very definite place in the baseball scheme of things. If a player is not shouting words of encouragement to his fel- low players the chances are that he is talking to himself. It's a great way of keeping a fellow on his toes. Old Dizzy Dean has plenty to say, on and off the diamond. Dean pops off with every pitch. And gener- ally, it is by way of complimenting Old Diz and telling him what a grand pitcher Dizzy Dean really is. Fighters, football players, jockeys, bike riders—in fact, athletees in any branch of sports that you can men- tion—do their share of “whistling in the dark.” The only exception that readily comes to mind might be the swimming group. Swimmers could not conveniently open their mouths to speak during competition for the obvious reason that the flow of water would very likely interrupt the flow of con- versation.
