The board has been reduced from 15 mem- bers to less than a dozen. This change, according to one member of the execu- tive com nittee, will serve to make the governing board more quickly respon- sive to giggestions from the club mem- bers and more representative of the club as a whele. A reduction in the ground rent paid by the club to the owner of the property has been effected under a comprcmise agreement. VINSON UPSETS DAWSON Meets Moreland Tomorrow for New Orleans Golf Title.

If he would do this. he would save himself a good many faults, including slicing. His idea of the swing is very likely to be that he must send the club- head out and around. That is the way a ballplayer hits at a ball and the average middle-aged man taking uf golf will have a picture of a ball- player’s batting sw! more firmly L‘:h?ehm” in his mind than any T, As a matter of fact, the golfer swings down. If the arc of his swing wsre dzflnl%ley located it would be found to that of the edge of a disc tilted at an angle of approximately 70 degrees, like that of Willie MacFarlane, shown above. The duffer visualizes something dif- ferent. Th: arc of the swing as he imagines it is not so perpendicular. It i3 a conception which forms the groundwork for many mistakes.
