In placing his left thumb on the right, or back, side of the shaft, he takes a great deal of care to see that it has plenty .of room. That is, he does not close the palm and heel of his right hand tight against it. Such a pinching of the left thumb would destroy all flexibility. work against a good wrist cock and tend to make the back- swing too upright. Perhaps the fact that Sarazen has short, stubby hands has required more attention to this detail than would usually be necessary. Play- ers having similar hands would do well to look into this left thumb po- LEFT THUMB sition carefully and find out whether it is being pinched by the right hand. And perhaps the same advice will apply to players with longer, more flexible hands. - - Obviously, a short, thick hand will not be as flexible as a long, slender one. Its owner must neglect no de- tail that will affect flexibility. Joe Glass has prepared a com- plete analysis of the Pivot with il- lustrations which will aid any golfer.

Syracuse, present champion of the Eastern Intercollegiate League, has been enjoying a great season, while Navy has been beaten once this year, Vir- ginia, Southern Conference champions, turning the trick. Saturday there is some doubt that McNaughton's cut nose, received against Smith of Virginia, will permit him to box. If McNaughton fights he will face Capt. Moran of the Syracuse team, an intercollegiate champion of two seasons and one of the hardest hitters in col- lege circles. ‘Wright, considered a co-star with Mc- Naughton, was beaten by a New Hamp- shire bantam two years ago, but he now has tied the Academy record of 20 wins in 21 starts.
