Looking up nets down finally to whether you see the ball in all of Its flight. If you do you are looking up, or partly looking up. If your attention is given wholly to stroking the ball it will be well on its way before you find it in the air. Any exertion of physical power that causes you to force the club beyond its natural, smooth swing, is pressing.

Sudden applications of power cause a jerk, in some degree. Experience will teach you if I cannotthat you cannot jerk and hit effectively.

Bur the turkey was not all. There was tongue in wagon loads, five kinds of cheese, with as many odors, roast pork, baked ham, every kind of pickle, salad, sauce, and the like obtainable in this part of the country, along with a raft of tomatoes, celery, lettuce, etc.

Soft drinks were plentiful and with variations. And Joe Engel called it a lunch. The writers called it a special dispensation from the above. Following the luncheon the writers, accustomed to harrying other victims Into posing for pictures, were forced to line up while they got shot by the photographers of the local press, then they hied forth to the Chattanooga Golf and Country cluS, where Joe Engel had arranged for a special golf tournament, with prizes for the first four low scores and a booby award. There was lots of competition for the latter.

Foursomes became threesomes and sixsomes as play progressed, some played three holes and others eighteen. with scores ranging from the number of antiprohibitionists to those who will pass freshman English. At times Joe regretted that he didn't bring along his ground keepers. At other times he wished he had brought along the na, tional guard. Then the boys piled back in cars, red and black Packards, with gentlemen of color dolled up in baseball uniforms butlers, footmen and chauffeurs.

All the writers were topped off with Lookout baseball caps. Joe Engel hadn't forgotten one thing to make the day a ripper, and looking after everything a sports writer may want is lots. Back to the hotel, where the business session was held, then the regular banquet starting at 7 p.m. And those who thought the luncheon was a feast were left without words to describe the dinner. It would take a poet to do that.

There will be other meetings of the southern sports writers. but none like this. Joe Engel is a. peerless host. Among the writers attending the convention were Blinky Horn.

City and Central will clash in the second game of their series in the Maroon gym this afternoon, starting at 2:30 o'clock. Bales' Purple cagers.will seek to make it two straight, having won the operter, 48 to 18. With the dope against them, Barnes' Maroons, improved since that terrific lacing, are out to even the ries and fully avenge the beating now that they have Central in their own lair. Central Ls in the midst of a four. game winning streak, while City has won its last five games.

Interest is centering around bow improved Maroon defense will stack up against the three whirlwind Purple scoring machine, Roy. Bennett and Settles. Two of these three consistently roll Up an imposing number of points in each game. They ran wild in the first gam with City. Some idea may be gained of the new strength of City's defense by the way they held down Bradley's free-scoring team.

There has been some doubt over whether Bennett will be able to start, as the Central luminary has been sick for the past week. Even more doubt Is hovering over Bigger, all-city guard, ailing with an infection. Bigger entered the Bradley game in the last few minutes, took four shots at the basket and made six points which happened to be six of the eight required to win that affray. Capt. Wooden, Huck Mitchell and Bigger will wind up their City cage careers in scheduled competition this afternoon.

This is the final Maroon game before the district tournament at Athens next week. Their loss next year will be sorely felt by Coach Barnes and they will be keenly watched today by the large crowd expected to turn out to see the ancient rivals fight for hardwood supremacy.

Helen Hicks, the strapping young American girl who wallops a golf ball with masculine punch and power, scored a brilliant triumph today over the blonde little British Diana Fishwick. in the first major international match between the rival women's forces now concentrated on the Florida front. They met in the semi-finals of the Florida women's championship tournament, over the course of the Palm Beach Country club, and a fashionable gallery of fully 1,000 men and women braved the rain to watch Miss Hicks score a decisive victory, 6 and 5. The match ended in an almost complete rout for the youthful British girl, whose game collapsed as she dropped five of the last six holes to her hard-hitting New York rival. Miss victory over the last of nine British contenders in the tournament assured an all-American final in which she will play the sensational Miss Virginia Van Wie, of Chicago, tomorrow afternoon over the eighteen-hole route.

Miss Van Wie, who yesterday shattered the Palm Beach course with an astonishing 12. won over Miss Peggy Wattles, of Buffalo, in the other semifinal match, 6 and 5. Miss Van Wie has won the title twice before. Miss Fishwick's failure to match her earlier play and offer keener opposition to Miss Hicks was a big disappointment to the gallery. Off the tees and through the fairway, Miss Fishwick was no match for her long-hitting opponent, who frequently was fifty yards or more longer on the drives.

The English girl was slicing her wood shots and finding hazards. Miss Fishwick sank putts of ten to twelve feet, respectively, on the second and third holes, to save halves. She ran down an eight-footer on the sixth to capture the only hole she won during the match. Miss Hicks. unsteady at the outset on the greens.

finally got the touch on the eighth, where she sank an eighteen-looter. Two other British contestants were eliminated in lower flight semi-final matches. Miss Jane Brooks, of Baltimore, defeated Mrs. Bee Brindle, of England, in the second flight, 4 and 3, while Mrs. Nettie Livermore, of Olen Cove, N.

disposed of Mona Dixon, 2 and 1, in the fourth flight. In the consolation flight, Jesse Firth, of England, won by default from of the English team. TENNESSEE WESLEYAN 'TAKES DOUBLE-HEADER Chattanooga Times Special. A'rEENS. Tenn.

The Memorial In Galway, IrelandIn the boundary wall at the Lombard street of the church of St.

Young Lynch killed a prominent Spaniard in a fit of jealousy, was tried and convicted. No one could be found who would carry out the death penalty, and the mayor himself furnished this most unique example of stern sense of justice.
