Neill, both of Maryland, tied for first place, with net scores of 66, in the handicap competition heid during the medal round, but Mc: Phail won in the draw. A light rain which fell at noon terday slowed up the fast putting greens, but did not help the baked-out appreciably. The course is v fast and scoring is easy, al though the stroke and distance pen- Ity for lost ball and ball out of bounds plaved havoc with some of the scores in the medal round. Inside Golf By Chester Hortone—| Many players have a persistent ten- dency “to dip the right side of the body just before they hit the ball and this often causes the clubhead to dig into the ground back of the ball or, if the ball is hit, it flies too high. This dip- ping results from the fact that the clubhead is “late” in the timing and you unconsciously try to catch up with it by dip- ping, or releasing, the right side of the body. The reason the club- head is thus late is because you have loosened the left hand grasp of the shaft at the top. when the pull of the shaft ex- erted itself against your hand muscles. The reason you release the grasp at that point is because your hand mus- cles are weak and lazy, and they quit upon the imposition of anything more than a penholder. You do not hold on rigidly with the left hand, but the grasp must be maintained so that the spring of the shaft will not be lost. Get this spring and the clubhead will 'rl"‘ilr'“ directly to the ball almost by itself. MAINTAIN GRIP \WITH LE HAND AT THE TOP OF YOUR SWING « 1925.)
