Advantage was taken cf the opportunity to try out all possible combinations of players, and nobody took win or defeat very seriously, for. while tbey were trying to win, they were trying harder to give 311 players a stiff workout.

I have seen too many golfers of all classes defeat themselves by attempting HmM6ARE0'' to Imitrite, In some respects, the good play of opponents, when they should play their pwn game. Think the shots out for yourself. Then make them. Every golfer at some time or other has had the temptation of trying to match, let's say, his drive with the long, powerful drive of some opponent. Don't do that.

Play YOUR game. And you'll score far better. Now to the picture. In the effort to apply more power than can be controlled with rhythm, too many players start down fast from the top. The picture shows you the slow area.

Up there start the hands down slowly. You should "gather" your stroke as the elubhead moves with ever accelerating speed from the top down through the hitting area Into the ball. Start slow, gather speed as the different forces flow into the stroke and prefer, always, rhythm to power. (Protected by John T. Dill Co.)

Another Important adoption was the granting of five additional votes to the minor leagues, bring ing meir xoiai 10 six votes in Q.A.H.A. matters.
