I Glee View Golf AFEW writers seem to believe that playirg the ball through the air is a modern addition to the Sete 110:41 of golf. It always has been the best route, but its use has been OPIPhagazvt by the introduco- :777:71114 tion of balls which carry farther than the old solid spheres and ty scientific bunker: 4 4 All good players get as vrnuCh carry as possible. Getting the ball in the air with a club that is well-faced 77.. backward Is not a difficult in but many players 460c teocHin tore find It difficult to lift the ball high enough when using a cleek or midiron. If you have trouble In this respect.

stand more behind the ball and use a more upright swing. Your stance should be a trifle more open with the right foot advanced and the ball inside the left heel. Even with a correct stance you may hit the ball down. This may be caused by lurching in the direction of the ball and corning down on the left foot too soon and so bringing the hands in front of the club bead. This turns the face of the club head in.

The theory of the shot is simple, in that the face of the club should meet the ball in the same position as when you lay the club naturally behind ball in addressing It. With the upright swing you must of necessity take some turf. Any novice knows when he has taken too much. It is of course possible to raise the ball with clean hit without taking turf, but it is not a correct shot, being more in the nature of a scoop. If you have not been getting the limit of carry, stay back more on the right foot A Totabo 117 Err A STATIP cortaEspoNDErri Boston, Sept.

The National commission decided tonight to take under advisement the complaint of the players of the two teams competing in the worlds series against the reduction of their shares in the players' pool proportionately to the diminution of the receipts below the coin taken in during recent post-season events. It is the contention of the players that the application of the rule promulgated before the series for the dis- tribution of the players pool would give the members of the second teams a proportion of the coin that would be unjust to the members of the competing clubs, Particularly to the losers. No Intention to Strike. Threats of a strike and refusal to complete the series are mere rumors, as the men realize they could gain nothing by such a move and would merely make it possible for the commission to withhold the entire pool and divert it to some war charity in case the pennant was not decided. The players' interest in the receipts ended with today's game and the amount of the pool to be divided is known to a penny.

If the entire pophwas to be divided 60 per cent to the winner and 40 per cent to the loser, as was the system previous to this year, the winners would receive less than $2,000 a man and the losers less than the $1,400 prescribed as the maximum under the new method evolved by the commissioners last winter. Little Left for Contenders. If any considerable portion of the players' pool is distributed among the teams finishing sec9nd, third, and fourth this year the contenders in the Worlers series will -receive small reward after the 10 per cent devoted to charities is deducted from each man's share. The problem is sufficiently serious to call for overnight consideration by the national commission.

Those officers teach the men how to use the gas masks and stay with them through the "It was for work of this kind that those men were taken.
