MORRISON Ray Bolger, dancing comic, helps to comedian plays a good game of golf. With the time to work seri- ously' at the game he could be an outstanding player. Despite limited time for playing he scores well, mainly through the looseness and rhythm he brings to golf. The ex- tent of this looseness is shown in the accompanying picture, His full follow-through and turned over left ankle are thrown in for good mea- sure, This outward turning of the left ankle is not recommended for the average player nor is it any advan- tage to the swing. But Bolger's agility reminds me of the reluctance of most golfers about approaching the game from J the side of looseness. The majority a players are handicapped by ten- piion because they deliberately in- vite ft. Tension Taboo Tension in the mind and body is created) by apprehension over the outcome of a shot, by confusion Ray Bolger, dancing comic helps to prove that looseness is an asset in golf. The dancer's agility and rhythm enable him to score regu- larly in the low 80s and occasionally in the 70s. * +» about the proper way to play the shot or by attempts to be firm and steer the club and ball. Ana it takes only a mite of tension to completely wreck the finest swing or best planned shot, The best antidotes for tension, #ie most effective means of pre- venting or eliminating it, are loose- ness and action. You should make use of these in everything you do when handling a golf club. After gripping the club your wrists should be free and your whole right side relaxed. Then you should keep your mid-section relaxed in taking your stance. Don't lock your leg muscles. Wiggle your toes as you waggle the clubhead slowly back and forth and above all things keep in motion so that your backswing has a rolling, uot a jerky start, Yes, there is a very reliable way of controlling all of this looseness and action--it is--holding your head steady over the ball by keeping your chin pointed at a spot on the ground just back of the ball.

By WALLY ISAK Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, Oct. 1¥--(CP)--The dis- tance runner who plods along fiend- ishly-planned courses for mile after mile in all kinds of weather, suffer- ing the agonies of tortured breath and leaden legs, is quite a riddle in his | himself. Why does he do it? This man who sometimes barely reaches the finishing tape before collapsing in agony from tortured stomach mus- cles and over-worked lungs. Then when he removes his shoes he re- moves some flesh too. Or he suffers the gnawing pain of "The bends" from either stopping too suddenly or exerting himself too much. "Yet," writes Rex (Guelph Mer- cury) MacLeod, "They usually have enough in reserve to stumble around to the prize headquarters where they are given an insignificant lit- tle bauble which they can toss on their mantelpiece, a mute token of their blood, sweat and tears." The prize really doesn't matter, though, says MacLeod. It's the man that counts because distance run- ners scoff at the reward. angle which arakes them unique among athletes during these days of athle- tic commercialism. "They regard each prize more in the nature of a souvenir of a parti- cular race, Mind you, they aren't averse to prize winning but this is only 'secondary to the thrill of ac- complishment they feel when they have sped over 26 miles of winding ih highway. "This may sound ludicrous to the more 'cemmercial type of athlete but a distance runner regards a race as a duel with himself, a sort of 'I wanted to see if I could do it' dogma," says MacLeod. d of the Track The death last week of Hec Phil- lips, former Canadian Olympic run- ner and track coach at the Univer. sity of Torpnto for the last 15 years, was a severe blow to all aspiring runners and track athletes, A mem- ber of the Olympic teams of 1920 and 1924, His death breaks another strong link with the past. Ivan (Hamilton Spectator) Miller says of Hec: "A fine type of athlete, it was but nati ;al thas Hec should turn to coaching when his own ac- tivities on jhe track were ended, and numerous. . . . Athletes. . . . Have reason to be thankful that the coach of the Blues was such a man." ahead of defending champion Turk Broda. i A.H.L. HOCKEY CHIPS By The Canadian Press Indianapolis - Capitals took the margin of Buffalo Bisons Thursday night, 5-1, while Providence Reds, flashing a better attack and a stouter defence than their oppon- ents, downed the Ramblers 5-2 at New Haven. Hero of the Caps opener was 20- year-old Jerry Reid of Owen Sound, playing his first American League hockey game, who scored three goals, one in each stanza. He shared honors with another youngster, goalie Terry Sawchuk, up from Omaha of the United States League. Sawchuk turned in a fancy job, stopping 25 'Bison shots. Sawchuk was robbed of a shutout by Leo Gravelle, who scored on a 25-foot drive in the second period. The Bisons failed to hold the Caps in check in the final 20 min- utes as Eddie Bruneteau and Nel- son Podolsky rifled in one apiece. Providence's Carl Liscombe, who established a professional hockey scoring record last year and started the new season with four goals Wednesday night, was held to one counter last night. Gino Rozzini and George John- ston racked up the two counters for New Haven while Chuck Scherza banged in two markers for the Reds. Johnny Chad and Ray LaPlante also notched singles.

Biltmore CANADA'S LARGEST MANUFACTURERS OF FINE FUR FELTS -p- ' / Other Biltmores $5 10 $12.50 OF CANADA as it's How They | Whether In Yards or Metres By JACIZ SULLIVAN Toronto, Oct. 15--(CP)--Season- al sob stories poured out by Na- tional Hockey League coaches re- ceive scant sympathy from Can- ada's track and field and swimming jralemyy. They, too, have a prob- em. It is: Should Canada ditch the yard distances and adopt the metric system, used in all countries of Europe except Britain and in the Olympic games. There's discussion about it from Montreal to Van- couver, Informal talk started after Can- ada's poor showing in the games and a ballot was conducted by the Canadian Press to find what Olym- pic officials and athletes think about it for Canada. They are split on the issue. . *Archie McKinnon, Olympic swim coach from Victoria, would like to see the A.A. U. adopt the metric sys- tem immediately, but Winnipeg's Ken Yost, games track coach, says Canada should stick to yards dist- ances. Olympic Track Manager Fred Rowell of Vancouver proposes a two-year cycle--the metric system in preparation for the Olympics and yards for the British Empire games. McKinnon says Canadian records do not give a true comparison of an athlete's worth compared to metric times and that the metric scale should be used to condition athletes to the added distance re- quired (9.4 yards in the 100) in the 'Measure Up' Olympics. Here's what others have to say: Roy Ashworth, Montreal, presi- dent of the Canadian Amateur Swimming Association: "I'm all for the change becausé when our kids go to the Olympics we are guessing on eur times." . Ashworth and A. Sidney Dawes, Montreal, president of the Canha-+| dian Olympic Association, would like pools in Canada built in 25 or 50-metre lengths to conform to those in Europe. Dawes said he didn't know enough about track "to say an Ad Jim Worrall of Toronto, assistant general manager of the. Olympic team, believes "We can't scrap one or the other completely--we should keep to both," and Prof. Nelson Hart of London, Ont., secretary of the C.O.A., figures a switch isn't worthwhile, "I don't think a change to the metric system would make any difference in the per- formance of our athletes." Murray McNie of London, Ont. trainer of the Olympic track team, sided with Hart and pointed out that American athletes, trained under the yards system, dominated track and swimming in the games. Don and Bob McFarlane, London, Ont., track stars, say they can | train just as well under both sys- tems. "If we're 'right' we can win | under metres or yards." Perhaps a solution will be found at the AAU. annual meeting in London, Ont., Nov. 18-20. Western Gridmen Feature Passing Calgary, Oct. 14 (CP)--The warn- ing cry of a gridiron aerial attack-- "Pass, Pass, Pass,"--Iis striking fear | into the hearts of opposing clubs every time Quarterback Keith 'Spaith leads Mis rollicking Calgary Stampeders into battle. For the bullet-like passes of the tall, likeable Californian have been a key factor in the rough-riding cowboy's spectacular nine-straight victory march across Western Can- ada football conference gridirons, Great Average Despite the almost phenomenal record of 64 successful completions in 111 attempted forwards, the 25- year-old Visalia, Calif.,, import is confident Stampeders will do even better during the remainder of the season. "Our passing offensive is just starting to click now," Spaith said. "It takes hours of practice plus the experience of playing together in actual competition to smooth out a passing play." In Spaith and outside Woody Strode, Calgary's red-hot grid fans believe they have a touchdown com- bination equal to Toronto Argonauts famous touchdown twins -- Joe Krol and Royal Copeland. Besides his sensational passing average, the blond six-footer boasts the best kicking average in the Prairie circuit -- a neat 44 yards a punt, Another Gambler Spaith was quarterback of the Professional Honolulu Warriors of the Pacific Coast Confeernce last year and was an understudy of the famous Bob Waterfield of Los An- geles Rams, His hopes of joining the Rams for this season received a setback when he was banned from U.S. pro ranks last season under gambling regulations after he and some of his team-mates made a wager that they would win one of the Warriors' final games of the season. Ironical- ly, not only were they banned from the pro ranks, but also lost their money. They bet they would beat the opposing club by two touch- downs and only managed to eke out a 7-6 victory. 50080000000000000000000000090 a 30300000 00000000000000000000000000000¢0 00000000000000070 "be immaculately HATTED vias: Biltmore CHOOSE ; from a wide selection 000000000000000000Q0Q0 g300000000000033000000803000030300300070 0 000000000000 2 CANNING'S LTD. 14 KING W.
