After Abe Mitchell slides his hips laterally , ‘fo° the right—the first movement of his drive—he starts the club back with a straight left arm.

Abe takes the club with a straight left arm. But his hands lead. In other words, he drags it beck by bending his left wrist so that the left hand points toward the ball. shall . La see, bend of the wrists permits him to throw the club head up and around over his shoulder. The unwinding process of these wrists on the down swing gives him tremendous accel- eration with the club head. ‘What is patent in Mitchell's swing at this point is the arrangement in it for keeping his left arm straight. This is ncwmgushed by the already made lateral hip slide to the right. This_move lowers the left shoulder and hip. The result is a passageway for the left arm to swing straight back under the chest and close to it. (Copyright, 1929.) ENGLISH OUTLAW GERMAN FOUR MONTHS FOR FOUL LONDON, April 4 (#).—Ted Sandwi- na, German heavyweight, has been sus- pended by the British Boxing Board of Control for four months, and ordered to forfeit his share of the purse, for his fouling of Gypsy Smith in their bout here recently. The forfeited money wiil g0 to the boxers’' benevolent fund. * The bout with Smith was the second one Sandwina has lost on account of low hitting recently, and it was believed that his disqualification for fouling Phil Scott in their battle for the heavyweight champlonship of Europe influenced board's decision to suspend him. holdout, the Temple quint, is one of the latest entries. The Suburban League has entered nine teams, one of its 10 having dis- banded. Bowlers of Classes C and D, with averages ranging from 95 to 103, will predominate. 1 THE EVENING STAR..

By beating Helen Hicks, sensation of the Florida tournaments, 3 and 2, in the quarter finals yesterday, the New Orleans girl won her way into the title's anteroom only to find her path blocked by the national champion and one of the best match players in the game. Miss Collett moved up by triumphing over Miss Maurcen Orcutt, the New Jersey star, 3 and 2. The Providence veteran, who has annexed as many titles as Joseph had colors in his coat, is favored to con- tinue her march to the finals and meet either Edith Quier of Reading, Pa. or Virginia Van Wie of Chicago, who plays in the other sem-finals match today. Miss Quier - yesterday disposed of Louise Fordyce of Youngstown, Ohio, 5 and 4, while Miss.Van Wie was get- ting & hair line 1. up decislon over Virginia Wilson, also of Chicago, in an extra hole thriller. Miss Van Wie staged a remarkable come-back yesterday to nose out the clever little Miss Wilson.
