Leo Dicgol h our national pro
fessional golfing champion, ami he
seems ablo to win the Canadian
open championship whenever he
starts In it, and he is one of the
most amiable and lovable fellows
in this world.
But he has the most terrible
putting posture I have ever Been,
except of nn otherwise dignified
old gentleman who turned his back
squarely to the hole and stooped
over and putted backward between
his feet.
Leo's putting position Is so des
perate and, unique that when he
was playing in oue of tho Texas
tournament h last winter it friend
of his who Is an aviator Identified
him from an attitude of 11,000 feet.
When endeavoring to eajolo tho
little ball Into the hole, Leo re
sembles a crab more than anything
elffc In nature I can think of; and
mi
personally he Is les of a crab than
almost anyone I know.
The system, such as It is, ap
pears to be to get tho forearms ab
solutely parallel with tho ground
and the patins perfectly opposed to
each other, the left elbow aiming
precisely at the hole.
This may not sound so involved,
but you ought to see Leo get Into
tho pose. When I asked him to
putt for a photograph, ho told me
to hurry up; ho couldn't hold It
long. I have seen golfers Infinitely
Inferior to Mr. Diego hold a putt
ing 1okc until the match behind
fancied they had been frozen or
turned into a pillar of gall.
"I've been putting that way for
years. suys Leo. ".Sometimes it
wurks well and sometimes not so
well."
I've noticed that about a number
of other putting systems. But none
so curious as that of tho national
professional champion.
