Golf Lesson Dept. ?
Want' a sure-fire way to im
prove your golf, game? Abide by
these seven commandments ren
dered by Slammin' Sammy Snead
and he says you'll hack at least
10 strokes off youir score if you're
in the "above 80" ;class: : j
"(1) Use the Vardon grip. Lap
the little finger of the right hand
over the forefinger of the left, or
between the forefinger and mid
dle finger of the left Always use
your fingers as much as possible
to hold the club. I
"(2) Take a natural stance, and
let your feet work together. Have
complete control of your balance.
A lot of hooking and- slicing is
avoided by that and by being sure
one leg is more rigid than the
. other.
"(3) Swing unhurriedly and
smoothly, letting the club do the
work for yqu. Never try to kill
the ball. Work towards accuracy.
Keep Noggin Down
"(4) Concentrate. Keep your
left eye if you're a right-handed
golfer more than your right on
the ball. This will help keep your
- head down and your chin point
ing in he opposite direction from
which you're hitting the ball. By
doing this your body will make
C truer turn and your eyes will
stay glued for a second or two to
the spot where the pill was. Be
fore addressing the ball on the
tee, fairway, sand trap or green,
make up your mind just how you
will play that particular shot.
"(5) Practice before you start
a game. ALWAYS spend a few
unhurried minutes putting on the
. green, trying to hit a nearby tree
- trunk or getting out of the rough.
Can Those Shorties
, "(6) Practice from green to tee,
and not too to green. You must
- first master the short game. Re
I build your 'game by sinking short
: putts. ' -; i .
: "(7) Don't be strangers with
your pro. He'll immediately spot
your faults and if you practice to
: overcome these you will gain the
confidence necessary to play
much better game..
(P.S.: If it 'doesn't work for
you, sell your clubs. You just ain't
no golfer.) :

Woes for New League
CHICAGO, June 1 (P) Red
Grange, Illinois' immortal ?gal
loping ghost," disclosed today he
had resigned as president of the
proposed U.S. Football league, de
claring postwer pro football would
throw promoters for a financial:
loss. ; i
Th4 circuit was organized la.t
fall with plans to enter teams in
Akroii, Baltimore, Boston, Phila- -
delphia, Washington, New York
and Chicago with an eighth fran
chise umktrmined.' Whether
Grange's action will leave the
postwar field open to just the
long-established National league
and the embryonic All-America
conference was .conjectural.
Sponge-throwing?
It was reported the U.S. league
refunded franchise deposits, but'
some - representatives indicated
they have not , thrown in the
sponge.
Grange insisted he resigned be
cause "the office requires a big
promotional job and my insurance
business prevents me from giving
it the necessary time."
He added, however, that I
would not advise anybody to start
in pro football now. Players, are
holding out for between $400 and
$600 a gme when they used to
get $150." Without referring to ri
val leagues, Grange asserted, that
promoters will need to attract "a
helluva lot of people just to break
even." I
