MIAMI, Fla., November 7.—Arne Borg, aquatic champlon, vesterday hung up a new world and a new American record in the half-mile swim when he negotiated the distance in the Venetian Casino pool here in 10 minutes 29 3-5 seconds. Borg in his successful attempt shat- tered two records which he himself had held, breaking the American mark of 10 minutes 43 3-5 seconds, set April 11, 1924, in Honolulu, and the world mark of 10 minutes 35 seconds, which he established also last year n Guthenburg, Sweden. Johnny Weismuller, here this week with Bor, lower his own world record in the 100-meter swim of £835 seconds, which he set Sunday in clipping one- fifth of a second from his previous world mark. Weismuller's time was 59 seconds flat.

During the golf swing the club, the player'’s hands, wrists and arms ob- maintain their fixed length, and the body keeps to its fixed height from the ball a suming that the head is held ap- proximately still. The variable then is the item of shifting weight. This weight shift- ing promotes back and-forth hip ac- tion; the right hip has a tendency to move to the right during the back swing, the left hip to the left during the forward swing. It is not possible to swing the club without this hip actlon, 8o the prob. lem {8 to get it into the swing in ex actly the right proportion. The right proportion is “not very great hip ac- tion.” Let the weight move over in the back swing until you feel you are “directly on top of the right leg.” Then stay there while the upper body pivots. In the forward swing, stiffen the left lex when you have got on top of it, and hold the weight there while the club swings through. (Copyright. 1926.)

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Dally News. MOSCOW, November 27.—Carlos Torre of New York, playing his first vear in big chess company, became the popular hero of the fans in the international tournament last night when he defeated Dr. Emanuel Lasker of Germany, former world champion and veteran of 45 years of competition. Torre next Sunday will celebrate the twenty-first anniversary of his birth at Merida, Mexico. Dr. Lasker is 57. In this country chess players are as popular idols as prize fight- ers in other lands. The Torre-Lasker game ended without applause as an evidence of the crowd's respect for both masters. The attentive audience hardly whis pered and watched the game for five hours, until on Torre’s forty-third move Dr. Lasker resigned The temperament of the two men was in striking contrast, Torre, while awaiting his turn to move, paced rapidly up and down the long lane behind the ropes, not noticing the other games or the eager faces before him. Dr. Lasker either calmly sat at the table puffing a cigar or sipping milk, or strolled away to | watch other games and exchange comments with other masters Though Torre's victory puts him | temporarily first in the tournament, Bogoliubov's game being adjourned, Torre's game of the previous day when he tled Capablanca, extricat- ing himself from an almost hopeless situation, was a great exhibition of chess.
