March 5.—Rav Conger, 23-year-old Iowa running star, will train for the Olympic 800-meter race instead of the 1500, if he listens to the advice of Lawson Robertson, head coach of the American team this year. Conger was advised to shift to the shorter race as a result of his defeat in the “mile of the century” by Lloyd Hahn, who also conquered the German star.

George Duncan, a great British golfer and one of the leading in- structors abroad, has made & elose study of the methods of various champions and has reached eertain definite conclusions. George believes that golf is playved with the soles of the feet. There is much to this theory. Balance, which results in perfect timing and, in turn, perfect shot making. is an important factor in shot making. Duncan says the soles of the feet control both bal- ance and timing. Thus. when he starts a club back low along the ground Duncan does so by pushing with the ball of the left foot. Golfers vary .in thelr theories about starting the elub back. But George's theorr is as 200d as any. Push off the left foot savs. and drag the elub back. hands leading. That hande leading idea is sound. lLong hitters like Jess Sweetser start it that war. It promotes suppleness of the wrists and permits the piaver to use wrist sDAp (pronation) at contact. That iends distance. as it accelerates the speed of the clubhead at contact.
