"BALL AND SOCKET" IDEA IN- GOLF,
OR HOW TO MAKE DOWN SWING
Body Should Turn About

IN MAKING the back swing, the hand
were the leader, and to they are the
leaders In the down awing-. That la to
ay, the Initial Impulse of the forces of
the body which have been prepared by
the movements described In the back
swISK Is the starting of the hands toward
the ball, In precisely the same manner
n would throw a baseball after draw-
v .jnr the arm back to pet the momentum.
Sb i fur as any other part of the body I
tt concerned, no conscious movement, no
K. .ttmnt on the part of the player to make
' any other part of the body move, to force

club and nan it is wun tnem, and
'through them, that all other parts of tho
body must exert their forces. To fol
low the description of tho stroke, this
must he clearly understood and nppre-

K body to respond naturally by not forcing
It Into tne siroKe. uo not misunderstand
me, all other parts of the body must be
allowed free response to the action df tho
S,. hands. Holding any part of the body
jfp- back from Its natural response to the
swinging or tne nanus is just ns bad as
forcing that part into tne stroke.
Much has been said about keeping the
h5 head still during the golf stroke, nnd
certainly, on tniB point, there can bo no
euestlon: It must be kept still. Stillness.

not the point or part we should concen
trate on keeping still. In saying this I
do not mean to Imply that the head will
not keep still or that It should not. It
does, of course, keep In the same place nil
the time until after the ball has been hit,
and this Is particularly noticeable in Var-
V don.
The particular part of the body to con
centrate the mind on keeping still Is a
point midway between the shoulder
blades, at the spine. Imagine that at this
place there Is a "ball and socket" joint,
on which the shoulders can turn to tho
right or left, and can go up or down
for this is what they must do in swlngi
lng a golf club.
In the up swing the left shoulder goes
down and around, the right shoulder up
K and around: In the down swing this
movement is reversed, it Is on the "ball
and socket" joint, which I have asked
you to imagine, that this action takes
place. Now, presuming the shoulders
have moved around the point Indicated,
In the manner described, and the neck
muscles are relaxed, the head will re
main still: there will be no tendency or
cause to move it; It cannot, unless you
try to move It.

ELEVEN LOOKS GOOD JOHN A. SCOTT ON GOLF

Point Between .Shoulder
golf clubs over the shoulder. So that
what was to have been a feature pf the
benefit golf tourney at Sunnybrook fell
nat and tho proceeds with It. But the
Jtlslng Sun Committee, which engineered
me tournament, report a healthy addi
tion to the sum of $10,000 which It Is its
desire to raise.
It was strlcMy for the .fair sex. Miss
Katharine Thompson came all the way
from Wilmington to win It. Sho haa u
handicap of only six strokes.
Some of the eontAfltnnfta worn mnn In-
y terested In the races at Whltemarsh than
in tne gulf tournament, particularly after
a. few holes had been played. Not the
least eager was tho committee, which
decided It could not wait till nil the con
testants had navigated the last few laps
of the Bunnybrook links so It packed
up the tee-talllcs nnd made fpr Erdcn
helm nnd the rnll at tho home stretch.
Mlw Rose Dolnn got In the pits 'neath
the shade of the ljth pin. She assaulted
the sandy slopes In vain to get her ball
out till her wrist grew tired. Then she
paused for breath. "I can sympathize
with the people In that hospital, for this
certainly makes me sick," said she.
One of tho fair contestants lost count
of her strokes on one of tho holes. Her
Interest In the total was practically nil,
especially when she found ,hcr ball way
over on the other side of the green, some
0 feet from tho hole. The ball, noticing
her downcast mien,' tagged tho putter and
whistled Its way right to tho hole. The
Idea Is for the golfer to work up a little
pity In his pill.
It Is the boast of the members of the
Sunnybrook Club that Its greens are un
surpassed In this or nny other country.
Tho club is known as the "millionaires."
club" and no oxpenso has been spared
to mako the course the best In the coun
try. Five of the greens are the result
of the genius of the late Frederick
Taylor, famous greens experimenter, and
the greens cost 3000 to (6000 apiece.
Tho greens aro a revelation. They are
as close and fine as a costly rug. Ilearts-of-grass
buds would about describe their
beautiful color. They ore so springy that
the golfer looks behind expecting to see
the prints of his shoes In the delicate sur
face. Wilson Totter Is tho only amateur who
has been able to break SO at Sunnybrook.
He had 79 recently. James Barnes, White
marsh pro, who considers tho course the
best in this city, shot a beautiful 74 there,
this week. It Js the ambition of Barnes
to get a To or better on every good course
In tho city, and he "has succeeded In most
cases.
There will bo a golf day tomorrow at
Punnybrook to celebrate tho anniversary
of the bright Idea of building- the club.
There will be a banquet for' all the mem
bers, at which It Is expected that plans
for tho costly now clubhouse will be dis
cussed and decided on.

SOME GUNNING DON'TS
Another Season fs at Hand Neces
sary Precautions
The fall gunning season Is about on.
and every year hunting brings with It Its
spoils In the form of human sacrifices.
For tho benefit of gunners who are plan
ning to go after 'game this fall, the fol
lowing list of don'ts la given:
Don't take nny chances. The function of a
shotgun Is to scatter shot, but be very careful
where ynu scatter it.
Don't Mace away in haste and don't set ex
cited. Many a ahooter has filled hi favorite
dog full of lead Just because ha was over
anxious. Don't point a gun at any person In Jest. It
Is always the gun that "we didn't know waa
loaded that goea Oft and does the damage.
The only time to point a gun Is when you in
tend to kill
Don't take every rustle of a bush or a
hmoti in be a sure Indication ot same, fie-
Ljnember sometimes an Inquisitive person haa a
Don't carry h loaded gun through the street
or en ears, trains, automobile, or any other
klnl of vehicle, or leave It around farm houses
to have some chlld-playfullyblow a head eft.
Don't get excited and shoot without making
sure that ypur object is game. . ...
Don't shoot until you see the rabbit, and
then be sure that he is clear of both roan and
doff.
Don't drar a gun under a fence with the
muixle pointed toward you,
Don't climb over fences with your gun or
lean It against a tree until you get oven Put
It through the fence and on the ground busi
ness end bofore.
Don't hunt with any one that you .know
to be careless. Carelessness with three and a
quarter drama of powder behind and One and
one-eighth ounces of shot Is inviting q,'aure
JlSon't load your kun until you are actuallr
ready for business. At sll other times it
should be empty Keep your finger oft the
trigger until you are looking down lb' barrel
at your game ...
Don't use a cheap gun, as It Is apt to ex
plode when a heavy charge In used.
Don't borrow a. dog or gun or loan either.
Don't rest on the mutiTe of your gun.
Don't violate the game laws. It U not only
criminal, but sometimes very costly. '

TIGERS' DEFENSE
GIVES THE JUMP
ON DARTMOUTH
Lack of Classy Punter Also
Handicap to Green Says
Stevenson
'MAKE OR BREAK" GAME
. By "VINCE" STEVENSON
Princeton will meet Dartmouth at
Princeton on Saturday in the most Im
portant game of the year for the Tigers.
A victory over Dartmouth does not mean
so much to Prince
ton as a win over
Harvard or Yale
In the eyes of tho
fans: but Coach
Rush is more In
terested In this
particular game
than nny the
Tigers will play
this season.
It Is the make or
break game for
Princeton. If It
can defeat Dart
mouth the Tigers
will surely improve
in leaps and
bounds and dispel
the worry on the
pj rt of Rush prior
to the Harvard
and Yale games.
He would know
that the team was
ETC v'ENSO.N-
at least capable of playing up to top form
in a crisis.
Princeton has been coming fast since
defeating Rutgers, but a defeat at the
hands of Dartmouth would set the team
buck fully two weeks, and a loss of form
and the moral effect of the defeat prob
ably would wreck the spirit of the squad.
STnONQ GREEN TEAM.
From New England comes the report
that Dartmouth has another great team,
but these opinions are evidently formed
on tho basis of tho high scores the Han
overltes have been rolling up In their
early games, while Princeton Just man
aged to pull through with a victory In
each of Its first three battles, There Is
a vast difference In the calibre of the
teams each has been meeting, and I
think Princeton has been meeting op
ponents who have done more to prepare
them for a hard struggle thun Dartmouth
has.
Look over the teams Dartmouth has
beaten and you will find but one that is
really a worthy opponent for a large
eleven. Dartmouth beat Massachusetts
.Aggies In the opening game of the sea
son by the score of 13 to 0, which is six
points better than Harvard could do
against the Aggies.
The 60 to 0 victory oyer Vermont must
not be taken into consideration, as this
contest was like any other n which Dart
mouth gets Its open game system In
working order a runaway.
Against Tufts Dartmouth's defense was
shown up and, although It won, 21 to 7,
Tufts gained almost as much ground as
Dartmouth, because the secondary de
fense of tho Oreen could not break up
forward passes. When a team has trou
ble breaking up the forward passes of a
squad like Tufts it Is due for a busy
Afternoon stopping the open game that
RubIi haa been developing at a rapid
clip for Princeton.
PUNTING MAY FIGURE.
Dartmouth Is without a punter, and I
think this is Princeton's greatest edge.
When Rutgers, although Its backs gained
almost three times as much ground as
Princeton, could not cross the Tigers'
goal lino because of the punting defense.
It Is evident that Dartmouth will pound
-away at a defense superior to any it
has faced this season.
With Driggs and Law, two punters who
can average CO yards and place the ball
in doing It, Dartmouth will find Prince
ton's defense almost Impregnable. Dart
mouth has not a punter who can average
better than 35 or 40 yards consistently,
and to win must get off to flying start
or get all tho breaks of the game,
Princeton, with a high-class punter and
excellent defense, to say nothing of a
splendid drop-klcker In Tlbbott. who can
bo used In a pinch, has a great advantage
Oi a team with a backfleld, that Is abso
lutely green, barring Qerrtsh, a first sub
stitute for Murdock last season.
The new Dartmouth backs may surprise
the Tigers, hut It la doubtful, while the
weakness of the Dartmouth ends Is likely
to give the splendid Princeton backfleld
a chaoca .to get off to nn early lead. If
rrlnceton can get an early lead, it Will
then resort to & defensive and kicking
game, particularly when the play la in its
own territory.
With Whitney. Ghee. Curtis and Mur
dock, its backfleld of 1914, Dartmouth
might play the open game as it did
against-Penn last fall and completely be
wilder tlto Tigers, but to date no team
has been able to fool the secondary de
fense with forward passes or get away
with trick plays, and both" Rutgers and
Syracuse tried these .plays often with ex
perienced backs primed for the same
with Princeton.
Dartmouth's line U powerful with four
veterans of the 1?13.1H teams playing
In great .form, but as Princeton does not
play a llne-smatMnr game, the effective
ness ot the Oreen line, if It does prove
loo much for the Tigers, will only give
thtm nu ftdvuit, ia burrylns kick m!
passes,.

The Dudley boys were off together at
the crack of tho gun. and until they
crossed the finish line the twins covered
the distance shoulder to shoulder. Neither
was able to outspurt the other In his en
deavor to overtake White and Block, of
Gei mini town, who finished first and sec
ond, respectively.
Had either of tho Dudley boys beaten

RUSH HAILED
AS GREAT COACH
AT PRINCETON
Frowned Upon, "Speedy"
Develops Tiger Team in
Rapid Manner
OVERCOMES
HANDICAP
Prlncetonlans hall John "Speedy" Rush
ns a wonder. Right now he has all the
assistance that any football coach could
nsk for. 1. was only a few weeks ago
that his regular coaches apparently were
not trying to help him any more than
was absolutely necessary. Such Is the
strange and sudden change of feeling at
Princeton toward the "bush league"
tutor.
When Rush was appointed head coach
at Princeton even loyal Prlncetonlans
held up their hands In horror. What
could the Football Committee be thinking
of to appoint a man who had never won
his varsity letter or coached a college
eleven of any sort to such an Important
position?
There was nothing but disaster staring
the Tigers in the face, according to the
wise heads at Princeton, but Rush has
fooled them all. He has not beaten Dart
mouth, Harvard and Yale yet, but lie has
proved conclusively that he is a' real
coach. There are many of his early sea
son critics who believe he may win at
least two of these games.
When Rush took charge of tho Prince
ton team he faced tho most discouraging
task that ever confronted a big college
coach. H1b first great handicap was his
reputation. He had never played with a
varsity eleven or earned his varsity let
ter; while his coaching experience was
confined to tutoring the University
School, a scholastic team In Cleveland.
The next handicaps were the lack of
material and the unwillingness of veteran
Princeton stars to respond to the call for
coaching assistance. Whether It merely
was an odd circumstance that found all
of the desired men toq busy to spare the
time or lack of confidence In Rush Is un
known. The fact remains that until he
had beaten the powerful Rutgers eleven
with the green Tiger team he practically
was alone In the coaching, save for Jim
Cooney.
After that victory Rush was given
plenty of assistance and the Princeton
team has been advancing at a rapid clip.
The players will be on edge for Dart
mouth on Saturday and they then will
ease up until the ttme comes to prepare
for Harvard and Yale.
Rush opened the seaoon with practically
no backfleld material to apeak of, barring
the first string. He has switched ends
and, tackles Into the backfleld without
crippling the line and now has so many
star backs it Is said that It Is doubtful
If Dave Tlbbott, star of the Rutgers game
and a veteran back, will be able to make
the regular team.
Perhaps the greatest stroke of coaching
genius pulled off by Rush waa the placing
of Jack Eddy, a substitute end, at half
back, against the advice of other coaches,
and developing him Into a sensation In
two weeks' time. Eddy's work at half
back has been wonderful and he la hailed
as another Mahan
Princeton will be without the services
of Charley Semmens. tackle, In the Dart
mouth game, and hla absence will be
felt. Semmens was kept out ot the La
fayette game In order to rest him for
Dartmouth, but In the scrimmage early
in the week he Injured his right leg,
which has troubled htm for several week.
It Is possible that he will not return to
the game for the remainder of the season
Rush's ability to make good as a big
college coach was doubted, In the East,
but In the Middle West football coaches
and critics believed In hi ability to make
good.
Charley Barrett, Cornll' sensational
quarterback: Sari Sprackllng, of Drown,
who waa an All-Amerlcan quarterback
several years ago; Frans, Harvard halt
back, and dozens of Western star and
other Eastern player of lesser note were
developed by Rush at Cleveland.
All ot the men he has turned out have
made a great Impression on their cbl
legiate coach, because they knew the
game thoroughly This season's Prince
ton Mam will play football at ail time,
regardless of wtutt the final score may be.
