Undoubtedly he started out with the £et idea of feedi thi it curve halls to the mauling Yankees, but his lan kept him in the hole constantly, as the New York hatters failed to t his outside delivery. Kremer akness seemed to be that too much te pitch to the individual ‘weaknesses of the Yankees.

Miller Huggins made the correct move when he lifted Hoyt after Wright and Tray- nor sinzled off him with one out in the eighth inning. To gamble fur- ther with Hoyt would have been ex- tremely dangeous. rager Donie Bush also gave evidence of man- agerial wisdom when he lifted Kre- mer, follo: azzerl's double over Barnhart's head in the sixth. Laz- zeri was the lead-off hatter. In sending in Miljus as relief pitcher for Kremer, Manager Bush uncovered a pitcher who 1 believe will figure prominently in making history during the present series. Sitting directly hehind the home- plate in the press box, I watched Miljus dish up a fast-breaking curve, arm fashion, and this fast- breaking hook spoiled much of the New York confidence at bat. How much it spoiled the confidence is apparent from the fact that Ruth's i in the seventh was the only New York made off Miljus in four innings of pitching. STRAIGHT O AGERSTOWN probably will have a real golfing treat on Saturday.

He was playing close in ready to cut off a run at the plate, when Hoyt hit a difficult grounder to short. Wright fielded the ball, but instead of throwing home he took one step backward and whipped the ball to Grantham, starting a double play. This was undoubtedly the best individual play of the day.

Miss Baker has issued a call for a meet- | ing of supervisors of the various gymnasiums used by the league to be held October 13 at the Franklin School to lay preliminary plans for reorganization of the loop. Later a meeting of the league's advisory board, comprising recreation leaders of the city, will be held. . Organization of the circuit was prompted by a desire to provide opportunity for wholesome Winter night recreation for men and older boys who have not the time to get such exercise during the day. It is pointed out that until organization of the league no organized effort had been made to provide facilities for men who have only their evenings for recreation. One of the rules is that no boy enrolled in a public school is eligible to play in the league. There is also a regulation that bars professionals. The Community Center gyms will, of course, still be,open to all, but the Center League only to unlimited and senior players. Never before have so many applications for use of the gyms been received. It is certain that four gyms will be available for the league this season and negotiations are on to secure a fifth. * Those, arranged for are at Central High School, Wilson Normal School (Columbia Heights _center), Eastern High School (East Washing- ton center) .and Hine Junior High (Southezst center). The first three were used last Winter, the Southeast center being added this vear. Miss Baker hopes also to secure the Mac- Collett Uses Left Arm to Get Stance BY SOL METZGER. The correct stance in golf is a matter of comfort and height, Tall plavers use an upright swing. Wee Robbie” Cruichshank uses a flat one. Among women players the first tendency is to reach for the ball when swinging. They in- varlably stand too far from it when addressing it. A slice is almost bound to result. And they fail to get the maximum of power into the actual hitting. Standing too erect is another evil. Such a golfer is likely to smother the ball, that is, drive it into the turf. When standing too close one is inclined to take the club face straight back and up, instead of around. That causes the face to come down onto the ball. Hooding, it is called. Glenna Collett has a firm stance and a sensible way to arrive at it. She first grips the handle of her club with the left hand and gets the face in position buck of the hall at right angles to the line of flight. Note her position in the illustration. She leans forward so her elbow is just clear of her body and her position is firm. Ball is ayed almost midway off the two MAJ.
