When making the mid-iron stroke fo not try for a loft. When a sharp cise to the ball is wanted use the spoon, never the mid-iron, The proper time to play the mid-tron is when it is dis- covered that @ spoon would carry too tar, It 1s well to remember when as- suming the distance for the mid-iron stroke to keep the left foot well in ad- vance of the ball, as shown in the ac- companying picture, and rest most of the weight of the body on the right foot. For the mid-iron, like all other irons, it {s necessary that the club head meets the ball firmly, Do not be afraid to take some turf, and then follow taking turf after the ball ts hit better distance and accuracy may be had. much in the fashion of driving. They must try to correct this fault as soon as possible by digging in after the ball, A good tip when playing the mid-iron, as well as the other ) Old Saying Proved by Prince of Como, but Not by Marrone’s Gallop. By Vincent Treanor. ISTORY will repeat itself, as the eaying goes, and then again it will not, The race track evi- dently 1s no place to prove the truth of the matter either way after yea- terday’s doings at the Yeakers course, History repeated itself tn one in- stance and in anottier failed to run of the past came with the defeat of the odds-on choice, Maree Henry, by Prince of Como in the fourth race in muoh the game manner and under strangely elmilar condi- tions the Prince showed Marse the wey home at Haratowe last ecason. But in the race previous, yeater- day, those who placed their conf- dence in the history dope got an expensive shock when Republican tow-roped Joe Marrone’s Gallop, This ir met laat July 3 at Aqueduct, and Hop ran away from Republican so easily that no one could be blamed for thinkt he would do so again | yesterday.

SS oe dees homes oss through. This is very essential, By Beginners often make the mistake of trying to pick the ball off the ground, the mid-iron, It is one club they don't have to spend many hours learning how to play. It isn't necessary. The same rules that were explained for the brase: hold good for the mid-iron, About, the only change is the grip, To get off a good shot with the mid-iron, take a firm grip with the fing and hold the club tightly. Do not swing back quite as for the cleek and try to make the sewing a least bit trons, is to hit the ball with gutticient force to make certain of being up to the hole. This is very necessary for all approach shots. Often golfers | are satisfied when approaching {f they get the ball on or near the green, ‘Always aim for the hole, instead of just merely trying to make the green, I never fail to alm my approach shot for the hole never forgetting, of course, to make the proper allowance for the run of the ball to the cup.

If yesterday's meeting of Gallop ana Republican was an honest effort on the part of both horses their orevious outing should be investigated. Such form reverses call for explanations and the stewards should demand them from all concerned if for no other reason than to protect the public from sharp practices of which yes- terday's race had ail the ear marks, Rumors of scandal were tn cirou- JaUion all over the track yesterday, One had Jockey Jimmy Butwell aet! down, suspended, almost everythin, feat on Arnold, tae well enjoys a reputation for honesty and It ts should have even beon questioned, Willie Midgely saddled two Coch. ran_winners in Phillipic and Prince of Como, but he hadn't much confi. dence in either before the race: Coghran horees are worthy of on ta ne thiake PRS SIS Sign a Few Umps Instead of a Few Players.” © they bave ti Nick Culiop Morece Milan hes 0 trviher samed Cipda, Red Dootn's‘carmine tinted dome Will no longer shine amon in the ump Waving towal house, | Mearratcher Rolts SELMinkee nine Without mentioning any nemes Pittsburgh writera claim there is tee much age hanging around the Pirates.
