He may come upon better days if instructive plans now set up by the P G A work prop erly. In past years the duffer, or aver- age golfer, has developed swing-in digestion from too many complex in structive mixtures. One teacher would tell him to do this and another would tell him not to do that, until his men tal picture was all badly blurred. At least this is the be lief of a number of P.G A instructors, Granitami Ilice including Lou Scott and Joe Novak, who know their trade. After more than 20 years of teach ing the young and old how not to slice or hook or top or flub, I.ou Scott, the Lakeside veteran, has a new and helpful angle to present. This idea consists largely in wiping out all the old slogans, the old max ims and such that have baffled the golfer for so many high-scoring years. Things to Forget MOUNTAIN WARFARE The army is buying pitons, kara- biners, ice axes, skis, sleeping bags and parkas, to be used not in an expedition to the North pole but in I preparation for warfare on snow clad mountain sides. If you ask what mountain sides the reply is: “We are preparing for any emergency.” Army chiefs have carefully noted what has been done in Europe in mountain and win ter warfare, and they intend that U S. troops be trained in the same tactics. Today, in the Railroad Retire ment building (headquarters of the quartermaster corps) you can find a group of men known as “the Cold Climate Clothing and Equipment unit.” They are ski experts and mountain climbers, who know by rigorous experience what is needed for life in the cold latitudes and high altitudes. They are Bestor Robinson of the National Ski association; Robert H. Bates, editor of “Five Miles High”; and William House, a famed climb er and explorer Working indoors ten hours a day, they are preparing specifications for the best military skis, the best goggles, boots, and high-pressure stoves that can be carried in a knapsack. Note: Germany’s expert in moun tain warfare, Paul Bauer, carried out hiß last peacetime mountain climbing exploit in the Nanga Par- I bat expedition in India in 1938—with the consent and co-operation of British government.
