Per this reason, It Is Im portant that a beginner-should take the greatest pains to play In the cor rect form from the start When a person goes on tho links for the first time he should not attempt to teach himself the game but- go to the lbstructor for advice. The De partment of Physical Education his added Mr "Bob . ' Rutherford, - a prof essional, of wide experience, to the teaching staff for this purpose - No muy,be found on the golf course during the day and is always ready to give instruction in the game: — The golf mentor has ability to see what special style of play is adapted to a person and, after discovering this method of play fitted to the beginner, he gives the necessary instructions so that the player trill be able to, use his best form Every player has - a different way to grip the club and to stand in order to gain the best results and the instructor tells the student the proper methods which aro adapted to his par ticular needs • , A mistake which many beginners make, is accepting the adviee—which every person donates to them. This. In most cases, does more harm than good, for every player has some pe culiarities and , the right golfing form of one person Is entirely wrong for another The golf aspirant should get his right stance and adopt his own style of swing and then ethic to these He should try to perfect himself In these instead 8r experimenting with many different forms Some Fundamentals of Golf Tin Ituthel ford has Issued some gen eral fundamental Instructions which are necessary and should ho followed by the beginner There are many com mon faults which the novice acquires and these - rules have to do with these mistakes The mosUmpOrtant law of the game and the one most frequently disobeyed by, the new golfer Is that of 'ceasing the eye on the ball, when swinging Thls causes more pool golfing than anything else and It is absolutely necessary to do this at all times In swinging, the body should not be raised. 'When the elub.ls swung back, the left shoulder should be dropped, and - when the plaer has swung thru, he - should naturally drop the right shoulder. Many golfers have trouble with topp ing the ball or hitting It with the heel of the..club The heel of the elub is the weakest spot and It is the bitting of the ball hero that is the greatest cause ,of broken clubs. If a player is con stantly doing this, ho can remedy the fault by moving back a little from the ball when swinging• On the other hand if he tops the boll; the golfer should stand , closer - to , the ball " If a person has difficulty in'using a particular club, be should play with it until be has acquired - the right knack In handling It.
