By Eddie Ash Concentration Is Golf's Hardest Task m m a Much of the ‘Science’ Is Exaggerated

'T'HAT the average human will be able to get around the golf course in something less than the government’s annual budget, and without the preliminaries of an equal number of complicated instructions, is the contention of Herb Graffis, editor of Golfing Magazine, writing in the June issue of Esquire Magazine. “You can not blame a man for wanting to be rated as an Einstein or one of the Mayo brothers,” writes Mr. Graffis, “instead of merely as a guy who can hammer out a little ball, nudge it onto a green and pat it into a hole. “This idea of golf as a fine art might be attributed to a certain estimable Scotsman named Forgan, who, before he departed the hazards of this world for the wide, green fairways beyond, wrote a brief and simple rhapsody on golf. Golf is a science; the study of a lifetime, chanted the enthralled Scot.” a a a a a a MR. GRAFFIS goes on to say, ‘ The scientific angle went across great at the start Many of the pupils were violently enthusiastic. The indefatigable patients for goif instruction became scientific research fellows instead of plain nuts, under the benevolent beam of the Forgan tenet. Every professional’s necktie was marked with rich instruction income gravy in those departed days when Tommy Armour. Bob MacDonald. Alec Smith and other top-shot pros asked and got SIOO for a lesson. The professionals began to say solemn things about the lateral hip shift, axis of the swing, open and shut face of the clubs and other details that were as plain to pupil—and many pros—as the inscriptions on Mayan ruins. a a a a a a “AT one of the conventions of the Professional Golfer's Association, the l\. mentors authorized preparation of a series of key motion pictures of the stylists. Approximately SIO,OOO was spent for ultra-slow motion pictures of Bobby Jones, Harry Vardon and Joyce Wethered. Jones was selected as the master of the new- school, notwithstanding some comment that Jones, because an amateur, indicated a lack of stylist class in playing technique. Wethered was chosen as the world's greatest woman golfer. a a a a a a “pvESPITE faults of these early research pictures, the true spirit of mJ the scientist kept burning like a prairie fire in the bosoms of the leading professionals. The professional who was in charge of this pic-ture-taking. George Sargent, projected those slow-motion pictures several thousand itmes on paper sheets, stopping the camera to make pencil marks showing the position of the clubhead. hands, elbows, head, wrists, feet, legs and all other parts of the human form. After studying these pictures and charts and exploring them with scores of other expert instructors, George Sargent finally arrived at a simple discovery that the tough thing about golf was to get the clubhead back in the same position it occupied when the ball was addressed and to return it to this position so power could be poured into the shot. ana a a a “T~5 ARLY in 1932, the Professional Golfers’ Association sent out a quesJL tionnaire to the members asking what was the mast difficult phase of golf instruction. The 300 returns named forty-two different details as being ‘most difficult.’ These things that you have difficulty in learning about golf are (say your professional instructors), balance, grip, coordination. driving, long irons, pivot, iron play, recovery shots and bunker shots To that start is added, direction, relaxation. 100-yard approaches, short pitches over traps, straight left arm. relaxation at impact, weight shift and the important matter of swing from the inside out. a m a ana “MOW that you afe beginning to realize what makes it hard to hit that stationary little ball, we will continue with: Holding the body still, hitting with the hands, timing, downward swing, holding the head still inashie, hitting with club instead of body, judgment of distance stroke is a swing, how to handle the club, brassie from fairway lie left side of bodv. follow through, overcoming tensity, starting downswing properly, cocking the wrists, body action, rhythm, conscious effort, hitting through, woods with the men and irons with the "omen, nndiron and long shot to the green. And concentration topped them all. aaa a a a THE promotion of simplified, resultful instruction will not have easy going There are professionals who would rather lose money each vear and preserve a high opinion of themselves as superior and scientific guys than to make money by broadcasting the popularizing notion that Tolf is so simple that even a pro can learn it. The majority of the golf Lweverare engaging in this effort to simpiify the game. Ure complexities of which they have been preaching for the last twenty five years.” /

INDIANS MOVE UP; TAKE ON SAINTS NEXT

Tribe Annexes Bitter Battle From Millers, Eleven Innings, After Tying Fray in Ninth Fred Bedore Poles Sphere Over Fence to Put Hoosiers Back in Game: Six Pitchers Are Used, With Logan Winning: Score Is 6-5. By Time* Special ST. PAUL. May 19.—The battling Indians were in this city today to make their first 1924 call at Lexington park to meet Bob Coleman’s St. Paul Saints in the opener of a three-game series. The Hoosiers came over from Minneapolis where they staged a frenzied battle yesterday to down the league-leading Millers, 6 to 5, in eleven innings. The victory boosted the Tribesmen back to second place in the A. A. ra&e owing to the fact the Kansas City Blues bowed to Columbus. The Blues and Red Birds are tied for thrd and Louisville and St. Paul are tied for the next position. Moreover, Milwaukee and Toledo are not away. It’s an interesting scrap among the eight teams of Tom Hickey's loop.

Fred Bedore saved the day for the Indians at Minneapolis yesterday when he blasted a home run in the ninth with two down, one mate on base and the Millers leading, 5 to 3. Fred's blow tied the score and then the rivals went until the eleventh before the Tribesmen annexed the bitter struggle. Sigafoos Cracks Double Frank Sigafoos opened the eleventh with a double, reached third on Washington’s out and scored on a wild pitch by Marrow 7 . Six hurlers saw action in the game, three on each side, and Bob Logan finally received credit for the victory. Marrow was charged with the less. The Indians collected thirteen hits to ten for Minneapolis, but the Tribe had twelve men left on base to eight for the Millers. Harris was best hitter for the losers w 7 ith three safeties, including a double. The Indians played errorless ball. Two miscues were chalked against the home nine. The Millers won two and lost one in the series. TRIBE BATTING FIGURES AB. H. Pet.

Dempsey Goes Paternal If It's a Boy, Oh, Joy! Jack Will Put Boxing Gloves on Him at Once.

BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. May 19.—Muffle the drums of fight ballyhoo! Still th. 6 tocsins for championship bouts. Jack Dempsey is in town buying baby clothes. Dempsey holds booties in his big paws. Dempsey talks about basinets. Dempsey, the most savage mauler who ever flashed across the Queensbury horizon, has gone completely paternal.

While the hurricane of discussion about the McLamin-Ross and Car-nera-Baer title fights roars through Cauliflower Alley, Jack and his wife, the former Hannah Williams of musical comedy fame, are at the quiet St. Moritz hotel talknig about the baby expected in late July. Wants a Champ On the surface, the former champion is at par with any other expectant father. Just another man whose wife is going to have a baby. But get him aside, chat a while and you discover that they'ev taken the fighter out of the ring, but they | haven't taken the fight out of the fighter. The gong echoes in his ears. Jack wants the name of Dempsey to go on fighting, to be roared across arenas by a hundred thousand voices, to command screaming headlines. He hopes that the baby will be a boy—Jack Dempsey Jr.—a boy who will be another world champio.n That's what he told me. Jack was surprised when asked if he would permit his son to be a boxer, that is. if the stork brings a son. He said, "will I let him? if it’s a son. I hope he does get into the ring. It's the grandest game of all. Must Have Ability /‘What I mean is this: If the boy is healthy and strong and has ability as a boxer, and like to see him

He’ll Tackle Jumping Joe

THE powerful Frank Speers. 230pound "Georgia Bad M n" of Aalanta. will defend his local wrestling record of seven matches without a defeat when he takes on Joe Savoldi, the Italian flash, in the main go on the Hercules A. C. allheavyweight wrestling card Tuesday night at the Armory. The bout promises to produce an unusual amount of action as both grapplers are of the agressive type. Speers was an all-America grid warrior at Georgia Tech a few years ago and was right tackle on the Tech eleven that annexed the national championship in 1928. The husky Aalanta matman is rated one of the best heavies in Dixieland. Savoldi is expected to attempt his "dropkick” offense against his heavier opponent Tuesday. The former Notre Dame football star has been using that style of attack with much success during the past few months. Two other heavyweight matches are on the Tuesday card, first at 8:30. There will be no advance in the price of admission and tickets are on sale at the Claypool drug store.

Ward Leads Michigan in Big Ten Meet Hornbostel Breaks Record Which Had Stood 18 Years. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent EVANSTON, 111., May 19.—Mich : igan remained a favorite today to retain its supremacy in Western Conference track and field athletics as the thirty-fourth annual meet moved into the finals at Dyche stadium. Led by Willis Ward, husky Negro star, the Wolverines were expected to stave off Indiana's bid and win their third successive title and thirteenth since the meet was started in 1901. The opening day’s glory, however, went to Indiana when Charles Hornbostel, slim, bespectacled middle distance runner, stepped his heat of the half-mile in 1 minute 52 9-10 seconds, breaking a Conference record of eighteen years’ standing. Runs Mile Today With weather conditions ideal and only one race to run yesterday, Hornbostel unloosed his long stride and wrote a new 7 record in the books to take the place of one made by Scott, Mississippi A, and M., in 1916, when schools outside the Big Ten were allowed to compete in the Conference meet. Scotts mark was 1:53.2. Hornbostel is the unofficial holder of the world’s half-mile record at 1:50.9. Hornbostel is favored to retain his half mile title today, but will make his big effort in the mile and the mile-relay. Neither Michigan nor Indiana led in qualifiers in the preliminaries yesterday. Trials were held in ten of the fifteen events and Illinois, favored to take third place, landed sixteen qualifiers, twice as many as any other school. I. U. Qualifies Seven The number of qualifiers by the other schools were: Michigan. 8; Indiana, 7; Wisconsin, 7; Northwestern, 5; Purdue, 5; lowa, 5; Ohio State, 5; Minnesota, 4; Chicago, 3. Ward, Michigan’s mainstay, got off to a good start in the trials by leading the broad jump qualifiers with a leap of 23 feet, 2U inches, winning his heat of the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds, and his heat in the 120-yard high hurdles in 15.1 seconds. Ward also is favored in the high jump, in which no trials were held. Indiana’s cause w 7 as hurt when Caldmeyer was disqualified for three false starts in the high hurdles and Krutchen, who was second in the javelin last year, failed to place in the trials yesterday.

When Ace Shots Are Rare FOR the past two years gotf tournaments have been staged tn New York and in Detroit to see how rlose an ace scorer can come to duplicating his feat. Only one has done it. Oddly enough, it was with the first shot of the New York World-Telegram hole-in-one tournament last year that a professional registered.
