-SANDTRAPS(Continued from Page 10)

against soleing the club; that Is to say, touching it on the sand. The rule has a reason, though aggravated golfers sometimes can not sec it. It is to prevent players from scraping the sand away from back of the ball. That is another reason why practice will establish confidence in the sand trap shot, quicker possibly than in any other, because practice will overcome the fear of the shot, in showing that one does not need to move sand behind the ball or to sole the club if he plays the shot correctly. They are many ways of playing sand trap shots and not all the professionals or amateurs play them the same way at all times. Os course, no shot varies so much in (he lie it presents to the golfer. In fact, this shot I generally divide into good and bad lies in describing how to play it. | The good lie requires much less I explanation and may be played more j according t.o individual whim. Jack j Merriman, winner of The Times junior tournament last year, in play- [ ing the thirteenth hole at South Grove, landed his ball in the trap and his opponent was hole high about three yards from the cup. Merriman used his putter and placed! his ball within six inches of the cup, j halving the hole with his opponent, j It was an easy matter for Merri-1 man to play this shot with his putter because the trap was a shallow one and lie a good one, but I certainly would not recommend the average golfer to try to use the putter in sand trap shots, at least not until he has a good knowledge of the game. Clyde Bowers shoots sand trap shots differently—sometimes with a mashie, then again with his niblick, even when the lies appear identical. Mike Lawson gets tremendous distance out of bunkers. He uses his niblick, which is his favorite club. He uses it whenever lie can, even for his approaches. It is not necessary to remove a lot of sand in playing a bad lie in the j sand trap. The only time to do this is when the ball is in a depression, such as a heel mark. When the lie is not a good one, it is well to keep your eye on the sand an inch or two hack of the ball. Hit there with a descending blow, coming down at an angle of about 43 degrees and you will finish in the sand a little in advance of where the ball lays. In the sand trap, particularly where you play a real shot from a had lie. and with a bank to be played over where the ball must rise rapidly, see to it that the stance is absolutely secure with botli feet planted firmly. Work your feet into the sand if necessary. To play the real bunker shot, stand behind the ball, which should be in line with the left toe. the right foot may even be forward a little bit, giving an open stance, grip the club firmly, in fact, this shot and playing out of high grass are the only ones where you hold tightly to the club, but do not let it be in an unyielding manner, as you must allow for a lit- j l tie play in your wrists to raise the ! ball at the moment ot impact. That j tho heel of the club may get well into the ball, keep the hands low and lay the face of the club back more, particularly if you are close to the bank. If you are too close to the bank, do not try to play out straight toward the hole. Play out either end or back, remembering that the main idea when you are in a bunker is to get out. The taking of sand is advisable ‘ when you are in one of the shallow j traps close to the green. The ball has but a few feet to clear "and many players think the best thing to do is play the shot cleanly, giving it hut little pitch with the mashie. but no sort of control can be maintained in playing the shot this way, as anxiety

C’luin Bucher

Clutn Bucher, Huntington, probably will do the receiving for tho Indiana University baseball team next Friday when Ohio State opens the Conference season at Bloomington. The Crimson is in good condition as a result of several clashes with non-conference foes. Russell Paugh, Indianapolis, probably will do the twirling for the Deanmen. to get entirely clear of the bunker interferes with concentration on accuracy and the result may be that you roll all the way across the green into another bunker. Play this little shot with tremendous force, even as great as for the drop lie in a fairway bunker. Come down heavily two or three Inches behind the ball which will jump as if an explosion had been set off under it. Th s is the explosion shot. The force, in fact, does not come to the ball from underneath it and the "ball flops out onto the green with scarcely any run to It at all. This is the place where practice will count for one can soon learn how far behind the ball to come down to insure certain distance and with the fine shade of regulation required, many a had approach rqp be made up by laying the ball dead for the hole out putt. It is that capacity to recover which distinguishes the good player from the mediocre. No golfer has yet appeared who can avoid getting into trouble and the thing to do is to get out of It neatly. Billy Reed, qne est the old guard on the municipal courses, plays the explosion shot better than anyone I know of. Billy always has been a wonderful student in golf and his game shows it. In playing the bad lie bunker shot, the club is taken up rather higher.* on the back swing than it would be in the drive on account of the descending blow to he struck, because this is a descending blow. It finishes in the sand or earth —that is its follow through, a good deep digging into the earth. BUTLER VS. DANVILLE Bulldog Tracksters in Dual Meet at Irwin Field Today.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Boston Manager Is Unhap* piest of Eight New Big League Pilots. Bn Vnitcd Press NEW YORK, April 18—Bill Carrigan, who retired from baseball a decade ago when the Boston Red Sox were on the crest of a succession of world series victories, watched wearily from the shade of a Y'ankee Stadium dugout Monday while another club of the same name, wearing the same scarlet trimmed hose, went down to its sixth straight defeat of the 1927 season. With a record of never having lost a world series while with the Red Sox of old in the capacity of catcher and manager, Bill Is back at the Boston helm, with this difference—the club's record to date is that it hasn’t won a single ball game. Carrigan is the unhaVpiest of the eight new managers who came to the major leagues this year. All Bill is asked to do is to get the Red Sox out of the cellar, where The club seems determined to entrench itself byond the reach of cyclones and prohibition. Bill Is Kirin But Carrigan won't admit it can't be done. “The spirit of this club is great,” he said, indicating the playing field, where Elmo Rigney was kicking Meusel's grounder into left field, allowing Combs and Ruth to score. “As for the changes in the game and the chances of our going somewhere.” he continued, “ask me after the Fourth of July and I may be in a better position to speak." Carrigan said he was still studying the game as It is played in 1927 and trying to discover how best to apply the winning formulae of a previous decade or two. "In the few games I've seen this season." Dill said. "The most striking difference seems to be between the ball used then and now.” Carrington referred to the slugging bee of Smvlay. “I don't think the ball the Yanks were hammering about was any livelier than the ball of 1916.” he said. ‘The present ball sounds 'punk.' It hasn't the ring end solidity and life of the < Id ball.” “Flattens Like Egg” “Sometimes, on ordinary drives, the hail flattens out like an egg. That's why we have to buy ’em by the bushel nowadays." As for the scieny of the game, Carrington believes there has been little change. "The Cardinals played good, oldfashioned baseball last season, and won the pennant and the world series." he explained. “Os course,, in the old days, with a strong defensive club and a great, pitching staff, we could afford to lie baek and play tight hall. “This year," Bill added, somewhat grimly. ‘We'll have to develop so o ether plan of winning.” Carrigan watched Mark Koenig throw out the last two Red"" Sox batters and rose from the bench as the ta. shut out by old "Dutch" Reutl. for its sixth straight defeat, st. cared * wards the club house. “Yes," rep .ted Bill. “Some other system of winning seems to be r tded.” MORE SWIMMING MARKS 400-Yard Relay and 220-Y'ard Backstroke Records Set.

"The ice cubes we are selling are cut by special machine from the best possible ice, each cube sawed into proper dimensions and packed in the most sanitary manner."
