PROS WIN GOLF MATCH
Defeat Danforth and Graham, Ama

In which there wus considerable inter

No. - course by Hininctt French.' of

profeiionaks, against F. S. Danforth.
nf North Fork, uud Sam Grnlinm, of

eleven holes, giving the match to the

the winners was lio, 07 70. '
McNMLICK
It all out like an efficiency engineer or
something. Ho drew thrco semicircles,
the one inside the other, with dotted
lines and things.
Tho Thrco Circles
"Now," said the pro, "the oulsUc
and createst of these semicircles rep
resents the i weep of tho club, the next
represents me arc or. tno nanus, wnnc
tho upper represents the sweep of the
eye,
."Suppose," excitedly continued
Hackney, these three circles wore
thrco wheels welded together and sup
pose one side of this wheel were heavier
and slower than the rest of It. How docs
ii side-heavy wheel roll? In a circle,
doesn't it outward or Inward from the
straight line?"
AVc were following tho argument the
same as aforesaid wheel, but bowed as
sent. "Good!" exclaimed the pro trium
phantly. "Now then, the eyes flash the
signal to the hands which work the
clubhead. The circle of the eyes, being
(lie smallest, ordinarily would work the
fastest, but it hns (o make allowance
for tho arc of tho hands, larger and
slower. The clubhead circle is the
greatest and therefore has to work the
fastest hi order to balance the two
smaller ones."
We deduced from this that if the eye
completes its circle before the outside
circles, the player has looked past, the
ball.
Mind controls muscle and the next
greater circle of the hands has followed
the eye and is ahead of the greatest, and
outside, circle, the sweep of the club.
Tho result is that the player has
sliced or heeled his ball unless the eye
makes allowance for the hands nnd the
hands for tho clubhead.
Before Clubhead
"Therefore," continued Hackney,
"you have the reason It is to essen
tial not to let the eye pass beforo the
clubhead hits the ball. I want the eye
nailed to the ball and the mind u. blank."
Hackney demanded to know why it
was that a. man could always hit a daisy
or cigarette butt ou the ground. He
answered it in the same breath.
"Hccaiisc he looks at it and he hits it. I
He isn't looking to sec where it will go. )
If a ninu would go about hitting a golf
hall tho same way. he'd never slice It. '
That's why T don't care about a follo.v'
through. After I hit the ball I don't
care what I do. In fact, I don't know
what I do. The whole shot, nnd all
I'm interested in, is up to the time the
ball is hit."
Hackney lays much stress in his "nat-

"l'ou can't thread a. needle by grip

watching where tho thread is going to

"No, you have to relax, keep your eye
on tho hole in the needle, handle the
thread with a relaxed hand, then take it
through easily and naturally. A golf shot
is the same."
PENN FAST FOR RELAYS
Quartet of Quarter-Milers Can
Average 50 Seconds Each
' With advance information pointing to
tho fact that there will be more and
faster teams than ever before entered in
tho' twenty-sixth annual University pf
Pennsylvania relay carnival, to be held
on Franklin Field April 30 nnd May 1,
tho local University itself is preparing
to put forth a greater effort than ever
to annex the titles.
Pennsylvania's strength seems to be
centered principally in the one-mile
raco. Each of its quartet of quarter
mllers can average fifty seconds when
in training, and tho four have already
won two important Indoor races in New
York. Coach Lawson Robertson bolloves
that this team will bo able to do better
than S :"0 when tho time comes for the
supremo outdoor test. The team is now
composed of Davis, Masam, Gustafson
and Smith, and could readily be
strengthened by tho substitution for
Davis of Earl Bby, who Is ns good at
the minrter us hc.is at the half mile.
1 It is possible, however, that I'cnn muy
i be obliged to uso Eby in the 'four-mile
I relnv. In which case his teammates
would probably be Brown, Shields and
Irwin.

American Business
idable Breakdowns
EH. HARRIMAN used
to say that no man
achieves anything
worth while unless he takes
all the responsibility and holds
absolute control.
The Packard Company has
always taken full responsibil
ity for its trucks because it con
trols their building from the
ground up.
Every part designed by Pack
ard controlled by Packard
through foundry, forge, ma
chining and finishing a Pack
ard engineering unit, tested by
Packard every step of the way.
ACKARD owns and oper
ates the most extensive
P
heat-treating and finishing
plant in the world producing
a steel that is stronger than the
average by 35,000 to 62,000
pounds to the square inch.
The steel in the rear end of
a Packard truck costs 22c a
pound as against 9c for the
steel ordinarily used.
Each run of steel is tested to
the final' limit of strength.
Each finished part to highest
known standard of accuracy.
Packard engines are run on
the block to an equivalent of
1000 miles road service. A
Packard truck is ready to do a
full day's work when it is
delivered.
THE business man runs his
trucks for what theywili do.
Transportation is his object
not having defective "parts
"made good" free of charge.
The Packard business is not
a business of assembling parts
made here and there. It is not
a trade in repair parts.
It is a business of building
trucks for the man who wants
transportation every working
hour of every working day.
And this is why the Packard
Company keeps control every
step of the way clear back to
the timber in the forest and
the ore in the mine.
