Craig Ruby, the Illinois basket ball mentor, believes in the one- hand short shot. His teams use it. Daugherity, last year's all-Confer. ence forward, starred with it. Ruby lines up four or five men in a row some 10 feet or more from the basket and to one side, passes the ball to the first man, who takes it on the run and takes off with his left foot some 5 to 8 feet from the basket, leaping upward and aiding himself in this leap with his right leg. He returns it to 0. 2, and so on down the line. The idea is to get as high as pos- sible and to let the ball leave the right hand when the player has it as close to the basket as he can reach, thus making the shot an ex- tremely short one. The ball is on the line of vision to the ket as it leaves the hand, thus insuring accuracy. It is a sure scoring shot for tall men and about the best of all for ghort ones. .

Dissatisfied with | the necessity for retrievi golf balls driven into indoor nets, and holding | that such practice does not permit | enough work with the delicate short shots, such as short pitches and chip sho Hoover and Cummins have conspired together to invent a new | form of driving and practice net.

The mechanical wonder is in- stalled at John Blick's Arcadia Golf School, where Al Price and Gporge Diffenbaugh hold forth as golf in- structors and watch the progress of construction of the eight indoor golf wonder of the world. Hoover and Cummins have devised |a net regulation size with 16 pockets, |one for each conceivable type of golf shot.
