THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, ones - Wethered Movies Surprise Pros STARS' GOLF FORM HELD UNORTHODOX No Wrist Snap When Club Meets Ball—Back Swing Not Standard. BY . PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, March 24.—Many professionals, who have been teaching duffers how and when not to swing their golf clubs all these years, may have some explaining to do this Summer when the ultra-slow movies of those two aces of golf, Bobby Jones and Joyce Wethered, are exhibited in their home-town ‘clubs, For the movies, to be shown by the Professional Golfers' Association of America, will convince Mr. and Mrs. Duffer that not even their pro knows everything about the royal and anclent game, and that, in three startling in- mnes. they were wrong. & group of well known Chicago ym- watched the pre-review of the llov' movies in the ante room of the P.

Peter Jackson, the greenkeeper at Con- gressional and a student of golf, was standing nearby. ‘“Yes” he said, “Jack may look funny when he M/eps up to a golf ball, but you will notice that when his club comes through it is going in a direct line with the hole.” Sandy has high hope of making James M. Maloney, a member of Congressional, one of the few scratch layers around Washington. “Ma- rne'y has one of the nnest golf swings I ever have seen,” Armour sald, d he is a comer, if I ever may look easy, but he's a tough fellow to beat,” 8 " Sandy Straight Off Tee ITTLE JOE PIEZ, who used toswing a [o!l club at the age of 12 years the ease of a youthful Bcbby Jon is coming along in fine shape and soon will be busting par wide open at Congressional, according to Sandy Armour, the Congressional pro, who has been alding Joe to learn the intricacies of golf for three or four years, .Yoe, who now is 15 years old, played the first nine at Congressional a few days ago in 35 strokes, which is three better than par, and has been over the last nine in par several times, Sandy says.

A large percentage of them died, so0 many, in fact, that the matter was taken up immediately by the Maryland commis- no undersize trout were to be liberated. Under the Maryland law all trout must be 7 inches in length to be takep and the day's limit is 10. This year anglers are requested not to return to_the water any legal size trout. The trout angler should always fish up and across the stream, and with the sun in his face, so that his shadow may not fall on the water. The idea of fish- ing up-stream is that the fish lie with their heads up-stream and do not see :ge angler until his flies have covered em. FITHERE is a difference of opinion amcng anglers about wet fly and dry fly fishing for trout, but we think the dry fly fishing has many more followers. Briefly, the art of dry fly fishing is to present a fly that floats, rising fish. To have success it is neces- sary that the angler should have skill in casting, be very observant, and have the patience of Job. In trout fishing let the fly float well over and behind the fish before picking it off the water for a fresh cast; very frequently & fish -will let “the him_and then turn round dnd ut it.
