SPORTS DEFECTS IN SWING SEEN BY ANALYSES Mints of Means to Remedy Faults in Winter Drill Are Presented. BY W. R. McCALLUM. ITH snow covering all the golf courses around the Capital destined to van- ish within a few days under the warm sun of oncoming Spring, could there be a better dime to overhaul the golf swing and prepare it for future links Ibnquests than right now? Is it wot a good time to take the swing spart, analyze it and find out why the old slice has been getting| worse of late, why you have not been getting proper distance or why you haven't hit the ball so well and so often as you used to do? [ Each case of poor hitting of a golf ball must be treated on ils special merits, or demerits, and yet there are general Tules which cover all cases Slicing is caused by only one thing— drawing of the clubface across the ball at the moment of impact. This may be done in a variety of ways, but can | have only one effect. Topping is al- | most always caused by lunging or ac- celeration of the body swing and pull- | ing or hooking is almost always caused | by what Bob Jones calls the “hooded” face, that is, by hitting the ball with & face that inclines toward the left of the line of play. Faults Grow Steadily. It's & queer game, this golf. You can go along for weeks and months, hitting the ball as well as you ever hit it, im- proving your scores and looking for- ‘ward to the day when you'll make the first flight and then, insidiously and almost unknown, there will creep into | your swing a series of minor faults which | swing a series of minor faults which alone may not cause trouble, but in the aggregate can ruin any game. And the worst part of the whole"thing is that if they are not nipped in their infancy they will grow and grow until the player, in sheer desperation, has to| start all over agein. ‘There is & golfer at Congressional, & man who used to break 100 rather consistently a few months ago, who now, through pyramiding of minor faults, actually cannot break 150. Minor faults have become aggravated into major faults, & smooth swing has become a mere stab at the ball, loose | muscles have tightened into muscles that could not possibly propel a golf ball any distance, and his mental atti- tude toward the game is one of ex- treme dejection. Where a few months ago this man oould hold his own in his golfing com- pany, today he is a man without hope, & man who hits more balls on the sole of the club than he hits on the face, who actually fans the ball once in a while and who now regards golf simply a8 a walk and not & particularly pleas- ant walk either. Few of us can be champlons. Not all of us can break 90 consistently, but all of us, if we do the thing at all, want to do it respectably well. Re- spectably well does not necessarily mean breaking 90 every time we start. It may not mean breaking 100. But it does mean keeping ‘:ne'?ue:d upl in the golfing company which we play. Most of the %‘:flm who find their game going haywire and their scores mounting could stay the process of dissolution by keeping the body en y out of the golf swing. To be sure, & simple hit with the arms can- not knock a golf ball as far as the ex- can knock it with their combina- n of shoulders, wrists, hips and arms, but it is astonishing how far a | golf ball may be hit simply by hitting with the arms. Body May Be Hindrance. Proper use of the body is essential | for extreme distance, but for the or- dinary game use of the body is more apt to be a hindrance than a help, | simply because most players do not know how to use it. The body must stay behind the ball at all times in the B Here is a simple illustration, as used | by Chick Evans, the old Chicago master of the game. Consider that the club- hear is on the end of a string. Swing it (do not pick it up) as if you were trying | to hit the shoulder of & man standing a few feet to your right. That necessi- tates a shoulder turn. Then permit th2 hips to rotate in that direction, which places your hands in hitting position. Then swing smoothly down toward the ball, continuing the arc of the clubhead in the same direction, out and through THE EVENING STAR,” WASHINGTON, D. (. - Argentine Prexy Is Fond of Golf UENOS AIRES, March 9 (#).— Argentina’s new President. Agu- stin P. Justo, is the nation’s first golfing executive. He took up the game only a few months before his inauguration, and in his fifty-Afth vear, but he is alreadvy shaving 100 better by the week he says, caused him to re- sort to a game he never had time for during a lifclong army career. “A golf course,” he explained, “is an impregnable barrier against political beggars.” Ex-President Alvear has become a eifer since he left the presidency 1: 1928, and has a handicap of | which means he shoots Buenos Aires' hardest courses in the early nineties.

BOOSTER BOWLERS CONTINUE IN A. B. C. Detroit Teams Help Break in 32 New Drives—Field of 12,000 Represents 260 Cities. By the Associated Press. DETROIT, March 9. — Detroit “booster” teams will swing into action again in the Thirty-second Annual Tournament of the American Bowling Congress tourney tonight. The local fives will compete for special prizes while helping to break in the 32 new tournament alleys. The big pin classic was formally opened last night by civic and A. B. C. bowling officials amid a colorful set- ting. This year’s layout is easily one of the finest in national tourney his- tory. The local bowlers, however, made no remarkable scores. More than 12,000 bowlers from 260 cities will participate in the bowlers’ world series before the wind-up April 11. All of last year's champions will at- tempt to defend their titles. They include the team champions, S. & L. Motors, Chicago, who won last year with a total of 3,013; Eddie Rafferty and Charley Reilly, Philadelphia, dou- bles winners, score 1,316; Walter Lachowski, Erie, singles titleholder, 712, and Mike Maurer, the Youngs- | town, Ohio, veteran, who annexed the | all-events crown with a mark of 1,966.

Have you heard the story of the old Scottish pro who had a wealthy pupl willing to spend anything to play a decent game of golf? Weeks of lessons an this phase and that phase of the swing convinced the pupil that instead of improving he was getting worse. He took more lessons and became worse. Finally his teacher, discouraged and an- noyed, couiseled, “Man, tak' the club and throw it at the ba'.” And the mys- tery was solved.
