The stance is opened because the change in the position of the feet gives an antomatic regulation of the power applied to the stroke. oy folded their disuppeared. leav- er and Fred J mbers of the ight fairly in- Year, however, ever Bobby Jones, hard Harvard law school, cqually industri’ appears that the formidable than «d upon the Br Hent two years g Sneetser In Primed. o Jess Sweetser, Wi today after two days of g ng preparation on th different Valley links in_South fersey.
