star, "because it neutralizes the grip
of mv hand."
Piatt is shown in the illustration in
aU the phases of a 140-yard mashie
pitch to the green. He brought it off
onrc and felled a favorite in the blue
ribbon golf event of the country. Here's
his way of plnjing it:
' "In the back swing." Halt pointed
out, "it is important to keep the left
wrist stiff. The right hand is relaxed in
back, but ns the club comes around in
the forward swing, this hand should be
tightened up and as the clubhead meets
the ball at the actual impart mv hands
arc about the same in firmness."
Ift Bach
The amateur sensation said that he
plays his left foot hack just a little ou
the stance, without exaggerating.
"Hunch iu -with the shoulder," fin
ished Hatt, "as this gives the proper
rinc to tho shot and helps the wrist
action."
The second picture shows this, the
moment just before the clubhead takes
the ball.
At the finish the club is carried well
out, with the clubfacc uot reaching the
vertical position.
It is a tense wrist shot with the
thought ou the ball and uot ou the grass
to be taken afterward.

SPORT'S SUPREMACY
BELONGS TO YOUTH
Athletes Beiivqen Ages of 21 and 30 Lead Over Oldev

the Hon. Know! ion L. Ames
ISy URAXTLAND RICR
fCopirlolit, loto,
VTTIXD8 of winter, hurry bv,
W Blow the darkness from the shy;
.Is you echo, roistering,
Mow us hack a breath of spring
Where the new-born grasses stir
As ice seek the cooling shade,
11'Acrc the cleaving brassies tchiir
And the imtter plies its trade.
Winds of y-inter, drift along
I 'ill you briny a new refrain
'That u built of April's song
Mown aliinn a blossomed lane;
It'ncre tec clear the frowning tchin
As the fairway beckons far.
Where the mashie seeks the pin
In a deadly grip Kith par.
T
HE Hon. Knowjton I. Ames, of Chi
cago, 1020, nnd Princeton, 1SS0, is
quite confident that supremacy in sport
belongs to youth to that gold-cmbosscd
span between twenty-one nnd thirty.
Quite a portion of tho Promised
Land is held by the young, but the vet
erans of many fields haven't quite sur
rendered their last lines of defense to
tho conquerors.
Just how do they compare, after all?
The simplest way is to take up tlic
matter without further palaver and list
various champions with tiicir ages at
tached :
Under Thirty
Ilcrron, golf champion twenty-two.
llngcn, open champion twenty
eight. Dempscy, heavyweight champion
twenty -four.
Johnson, turf teunis champion
twenty -six.
ltuth, home-run champion twenty
bix. Leonard, lightweight champion
twenty-four.
Over Thirty
Cobb, batting champion thirty-four.
'Alexander. National League pitching
leader thirty -three.
Johnson. American Lcaguo pitching
lender thirty-three.
Britton, welterweight champion
thirty -five.
rpHIS is only a brief summary, but it
-- at least shows the comparative situa
tion. In golf, tennis and the fight game
youth has control. Hut bnseball is still
largely owned by the veteran. Cobb,
Johnson. Alexander, Cicotte, Jackson,
Sallce. Collins. Sneaker, George Burns
and many of the game's leading stars are
more than thirty. Bob Vcach is tlnrty
two. Heinie Groh is thirty-pne. Any
all-star team selected would carry a
majority beyond thirty by a wide mar
gin. For what all-star team could leave
off Alexander, Johnson, Collins, Groh,
Speaker or Cobb?
SOME time ago we arranged a set of
statistics which showed that a man's
greatest jear in sport, on the average,
is around twenty-si. At twenty-six
Mathcwson, Cobb, AVnlsh, Jeffries.
Evans and many other notables reached
top form. At twenty two a man has
abundant youth, but little experience.
At thirty-two he has abundant expe
rience, but no particular amount of
