There are so many newspaper men in Havana that the government had to appoint a special committee to arrange for their accommodations. At 12 o'clock the main body of soldiers began its march to Capti-tana del Puerto with colors unfurled and bands playing.

Every available soldier, sailor, marine, and policeman turned out and joined the parade filed past ancient cathedrals and stately homes to the plaudit of a tremendous throng that lined the sidewalks and parks to overflowing. Not only natives of the capital city, but citizens from all over the republic came in great numbers to pay their respects to the distinguished visitors and the stately Avenida de las Mislones probably never before witnessed a grander spectacle than the parade through the heart of old Havana to the palace.

Barnes is correct. The average golfer is always trying NOT to do something that Is wrong Don't lift your head don't bend the left elbow DON'T dip the right shoulder DON'T sway DON'T press DON'T rush the swing DON'T jab your putts DON'T do forty other things. "The. main idea in golf," says Barnes, "is to DO the right things and to think about doing them not to think about NOT DOING tho wrong things. In other words, the golfer should get on the offensive and not be always on the defensive.

"Existent conditions regarding working along defensive lines, trying not to do certain things. An indoor school, especially one that has a good instructor, is one of the best of all spots to start rebuilding along better lines. There is no temptation here to hit one a mile. There is no temptation here to tee where the ball is going or to think where it may land.

There is nothing to think about except the swing Itself, the right way of swinging, the right balance. I PERSONAL TRIBUTES Tennis Tourneys, Regatta, Polo and Swimming Meet Planned TAMPA, Jan. 15.

Amateur players from any part of the South, either residents or visitors, are eligible for the Dixie championships. Many of the leading amateurs of America are to be in Florida this winter and will re-coive invitations to compete here. In the past almost every player of note with the exception of William Tildon and Miss Helen Wills have taken part in the events. Vincent Kichards has been singles champion and so has Robert Kin-sey, Richards and Francis T. Hunter have been doubles champions, and Miss Elizabeth Ryan has held the singles title for women.

Mine Mary K. Brown, Albert Chitpin, and his wife, Howard Voshell, llnrada, the Japnneso star and many others widely known have been contenders in the Dixie tournaments of the past.

Then try to Imitate him as far as you can. If a golfer doesn't know the right way to swing a club it isn't going to do him any good to correct a fault, for he will simply step Into another one.
