Let the left shoulder wait for the lown stroke; It should be kept still jntil the stroke starts. The right shoulder and side should he In a po sition to get be hind the shot. If you hit down with them first, you are apt to hit the ball on the toe or lunge Into it. It is well to tend to make the back stroke longer; I believe thorough ly In the five eighths or three quarters stroke I believe, too, in not moving the body too much and there should be less curving if you want good direc tion. However, if you do twist, do it smoothly and not clumsily. \yhen the clubhead swings back and tugs my left arm socket It signals to rue that It Is time to bring the club down. Hhoot out at your mark When the left arm socket Is reached let the break of the wrists act. This is the point where you can be conscious o( starting the whipping stroke. Don't try to dig your strength ‘Into tile ball before the clubhead hits it. Go out tc the limit at rtie back and then dip or bend -your clubhead toward you, hands almost stationary, but do not lose your balance. Do not be too stlfl or too wlggly at the extreme back Some golfers pause Just a second al this point; they claim that It giver more of a hit to the shot and the ball does not stay on the club head after meeting it. J should hit with the ways of a flicked clubhead and here Is the point of con centration—the mind Intent on hit ting. It is not necessary to hit very hard and you eliminate the rushing swing by taking the long back stroke. Think of the ascending clubhead and hands as pencils that have drawn two lines, and try to make your descent down these. If you cannot. It is bet ter to send the hands and clubhead Inside the lines hitting out across the imaginary direction line at ball. I ad vise you strongly not to hit in ft'om the outside of these lines. The club head should lead the hand* the last third of the distance to the ball. This is especially important in a wind. You must wait for this lead and you will be aurprlsed how easy they go if you do. With the clubhead dominating, you should not try to shove or rush It through the ball. Picture the club head leading Into the bail. You should not get the feeling of having the hands go Into the ball first, but you should have the feeling of both hands punched as one at the bail. Now feel the whipping of the club head through the ball with the hands as a center. Perhaps it Is a good idea at this time to think of giving the shot a little more wrist. The ac tion of the wrists Is sort of a flip causing you to hit the ball sharply and crisply with Just a little whip. If you want to get a quick rise ol the ball use lots of wrist. With the hands traveling properly, good direc tion is undeniably the result. It is s good idea with this club to avoid making a swing too round near the body. There is one thing sure, you cannot play good golf with the hand* acting as a center. The upright swing Is best for direction even In greal | winds.

The games were between the Guar antees and the Overlands and the Vinton Merchants and the C. B. & Q. The Guarantees protested their defeat at the hands of the Overlands hy a score of 8 to 7 In an 11-Inning contest because the winning score was made by a base runner who stood on second base when a ball was overthrown at first One member of the committee ex pressed the belief that there could he no overthrow hy the catcher, but tlie rest of the committee held that because of the natural surroundings of the amateur diamonds, the trees and shrubbery, an overthrow was pos sible. The 11 inning contest does not count and the game will be played again. The Vinton Merchants protested their game on the grounds that the umpire had failed to send a runner hack to third base after he had scored orf*a play which was Interfered with by the man running from second to third. They won their protest and ffietr game must be replayed. Amateur league winners are In for a busy week-end, judging from the amateur schedule handed out last night by John Dennison, secretary of the Amateur Baseball association. On Saturday afternoon at 3 at Fon tenelle park, the Overland Tires and the Xiuarantre Fund IJfes will replay the third game of the Ihree-game series to decide which team will meet the First M. E. Church Monday for tlio Saturday city title. Each team lias won a game. On Sunday afternoon at 1:30 at Fort Omaha the Vinton Merchants will tangle with the I!. & Q. terym In a replay of last Sunday's game. Should either team lose they will lie ruminated from lire race for the Sun day city title. In tlie second game at the Foit diamond the winners of the firat contest will lock horns with the West I, Improvers for the right to meet the Murphy-IJld-Its for the Sunday title on Labor day. Labor day will find two good games in the boards at Fort Omaha, when the First M. E. meet the winner of Saturday’s game for the Saturday title in the first game and the Mur phv-Did Its. Metro champs, lock horns with the winners of the second game. It Is necessary that these games Ire played at this particular time, as D^n risen is in receipt of a telegram from St Louis, stating that the Omaha amateur champs would he expected to play In St. Louis the middle of September. This date leaves but one week in which to select the city title winners, thus making the complicated schedule for the week-end. A week fro mnext Sunday the final games be tween the Sunday champs and the Saturday champs for the city honors will be played.___ Bears Wallop Solons. 10 to 4 7 Lincoln, Aug 2*.—Denver got away to a seven-run lead In the first two Inning* nnd took the third straight game from Lincoln, 10 to 4. here today.
