Two More Teams
Enter Big 1923
Cage Classic
Omaha Central and Lincoln
Look Like Real Conten
d e r s for Cham
pionship.
WO more teams en
tered the state bas
ket bait tourna
ment, swelling the
total to 236, accord
ing to reports from
Lincoln. Thursday
morning the open
ing whistles sound
on the various
courts and Satur
day night a new
champion of Ne
braska high school
basket ball will be
crowned.
53 Inability to piny
tinder pressure, the
sort of pressure which is common to
all tournament play in any sport, has
cost many a championship team the
litle and next to baseball, basket ball
develops the most unexpected happen
ings.
Omaha Central and Lincoln look
like the real contenders for class "A"
honors. In a home-and-home series
these two teams withdrew with a 1
game each. Creighton Prep seems to '
he in a slump. After taking the
Omaha c ity title Creighton pulled out j
with a one point lead against Platts- {
mouth. That doesn't indicate chain- -
pionship form.
The western part of the state is
well represented this year. Sidney,
Sutherland, ^Jorth Platte and Alli
ance comprise a foursome of west
ern quintets which may factor in the ,
finals.
Omaha Tech meets North Platte in
the first round of play and the winner
of this game meets the winner of the
Beatrice-Wahoo clash.
Central meets Sidney in the initial
game and the winner of this game
meets tho winner of the Alliance
Hastings game.
A recheck of the classifications
Monday morning brought about a few
changes. Ainsworth meets Talmago
• in class "G,” Beaver Crossing being
placed against Glenville in class "L."
The Overton team will be unable to
attend, so Brady was placed against
Murdock in class "M.” Through the
changes. Cathedral High of Lincoln
will have to play in order to make
the second round of class "O."
The first pairings put tho Cathedral
ft Vo against a bye, but Henderson lias
been placed in this bracket.

Mentone tennis tournament which
Bw-mf destined to bring together MUe.
Suzanne Lenglen and Mrs. Molla B. :
Mallory starts today. Neither is to1
play in the first round, which is set
for today, but the draw has placed
them both in the upper half.
After Miss Elizabeth Ryan had been
defeated at Monte Carlo-yesterday by
Miss Kathleen McKane, MUe. Leng
len's father said that Miss Ryan had
been playing too much tennis.
"The result vindicate* my judg- [
ment," he said, "not to let my daugh
ter play every event in every tourna
ment. Miss Ryan is much stronger
than Suzanne, yet she was unable to
stand the strain of continuous tennis
week in and week out. Mias Ryan is
a more accomplished player than Miss
McKane. hut just look st the score.”

Breaking Up of 1015 Outfit
Dissipated Fine Group of
“Comers”—Might Have
Had Best.
By DAVIS 4. WALSH
International »w* Srrikr Sport* Kdltor.
New Vork, March 4.—For the flint
time in nine years Connie Lugubrious
Mack can be favored to finish higher
than eighth in
the American
league because he
is deemed to have
mustered sum
~icnt strength, af- 1
:er seasons of ex
perimenting. to
outlast the Bos
ton Red Sox, if
none other.
Cornelius has
tried more com
binations . than a
Monte Carlo
gambler since
breaking up his !
world a champion- V. ^ " —
■hip outfit before CONNIE mack
the 1915 season. 1 He,d o( AthleUol
his efforts have been unproductive.
On the other hand, he would have had
a real ball club today had be stood
pat and allowed his original bets to
ride. Supose. for example, neither
trade nor purchase had tempt'd him.
He would then be able, barring acci
dents, to announce the following as
hi« lineup for the opening game of the
1923 season:
THEY WERE RELEASED.
Pilcher, Joe Kush, one of the lead
ing right handers In the game last
year; eateher, Steve O'Neill, still one
of the topnotehers; first base. Stuffy
Melnnis; second base. Eddie CiHlins.
who tops them all at 36: shortstop,
Larry Kopf; third base. Joe Dugan,
the beet in baseball; outfl'ldecs—( bar
ley Jamieson, Amos Strunk and
Whitey Witt.
So much for the opening day line
up. For the next game he could call
on Bob Shawkey. Herb pennock, Stan
ley Coveleakie, Hoy Moore, Rube
Brassier, Dana Filinglm and John
AVatson to pitch and Wally S'-hang,
Walter Schmidt. Val Picinich or Glenn
Mvatt to fill behind the plate—surely
the finest set <>f battery strength in
the land.
In case of Injuries to his front l!n»
forces I'ornelms would onlv need to
glance down along the bench to finj
George Rurns. first baseman and out
fielder: [do Lit van and Eddie Fos
ter. inflcldcrs. and I.irrv Gardner
and Frank Raker, pinch hitters.
Quite a ball club at that- So good
in fact, that it would figure to run
one. two, three In any man a league.
Yet It was given away virtually by
a man who gives only until It
hurts, therefore gives noth ng.
Cornelius must have been painfully
Injured many times during recent
years, f r he now has nothing to
show for all his trades and deals with
e'hei major league clubs unless :t I*

Davies Explains Thtee Best .
Methods of Gripping Clubs
By. STANLEY DAVIES.
THERE ate three methods of grip
ping a golf club, the Vardon
grip, the palm grip, and the in
terlocking grip. One can cite master*
of the game to illustrate each of |
the methods.
The Vardon grip, used by TIagen,
Barnes, Vardon, Taylor. Braid and j
Hutchison, Is the roost common. The !
itft hand has command of the club,,
fingers and thumb gripping firmly, i
hut not tense. The first finger and
thumb of the right hand have a firm
hold, the little finger overlapping
the forefinger of the left hand, and
the other two fingera lightly resting
on the shaft This allows the Jeft
hand and wrist to rotate, enabling
the club to be in correct position at1
the top of the swing, that Is, the nose
of the club head pointing towards
the ground.
Assuming a full swing has been
tgken, the club being at the horizontal
at the top of the swing, it is this :
turning of the club head < with the
hands, wrists and forearms, on the
back stroke, that is essential to the
correct position at the top of the
swing.
Vardon Grip Best.
The Vardon grip is more apt to a!
low* this correct turning for the rea
son that only the first finger and
thumb of the right hand are really
gripping, thus allowing the left wrist
and forearm to turn.
Gripping tensely with the right
hand is incorrect and effects the en
tire swing and .timing becomes im
possible, it being only possible to
lime the stroke when the hands are
In a correct position at the top of the
swing. Hearn to grip firmly, but
not tensely.
In my estimation it is the best
grip for the majority of golf players,
because in the other grips one 1*
so apt to have the right hand grip
ping too tightly and incorrect grip
ping la too often the cause of bad
shots. I do not wish to intimate that
one shold keep to the Vardsn grip,
but I do think that one should u»e
this method while learning and if
they think they can get more power
from the other methods, change aft- ,
ei wards.
Select Natural Grip.
Changing a grip can be accomplish
ed by practice.
The palm and Interlocking grip
are apt to cause the club head to
be In a choked position at the top
of the swing and until the golfer
has learned to let the club head turn
gradually on the up swing, he had
far better let these two forms of
gripping the club alone. The cause
of this choked position of the club
head is gripping too tiglftly by r.ght,
hand.
The palm grip is the grip used by
three fine British players, Abe Mitch
ell. Harold Milton and bandy Herd.
The club t« gripped by both palms,
the forefinger and thumb of each
hard form a V shape down the cen
ter of the shaft.
In the interlocking gr p used by
Gene Saraaen and Kraneis Ouirnet.
the little finger of the right hand
is interlocked under and around the
first finger of the left hand. It is
a grip that i* inclined to give a pull.
Harajten does not use this form of
gripping in his mashle and mashie
niblick shots.
Players can try out these three
method- and choose the one best suit
ed to their individual needs.
