WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Pv PAGE FIFTEE ore 7 Harmony Between One time and place to beat that unruly right hand is in starting the backswing. Grasp firmly with the left little finger and press down on ~ the club with the heel of the left hand. By ALEX MORRISON Central Press Canadian Golf Columnist "There it goes again, that old right hand taking charge and ruin- ing everything," exclaimed one of my friends 'who showed no sur- prise, just disgust and despair. For years his strong hand had kept him shooting in the 90's." Oc- casionally he enjoyed days when both hands worked together in good harmony but, these days were few and far between. Worse yet, he never knew beforehand when he would have a good day with his hands and it didn't seem possible te enjoy this harmony between both hands for more than a single day at a time. Only his steadfast hope kept him from quitting the game. Need I add that golf courses everywhere are crowded with fellows like him. Can they minimize this handicap of "too much right hand"? They can as soon as they acquire the proper attitude and method of dealing with the matter. To swing any club successfully the player must have both hands working together as one. The only way this can be done by a right- handed person swinging right-hand- ed is through setting up the left hand as the leader. To do this you must, among other things, hold the club firmly in the palm of the left hand with most of the back of this hand in your sight. This firmness can be measured by the pressure: of your left little fingers throughout the swing. This in turn is indicated by your ability to maintain the same position with these fingers from the start to the very finish of the swing with all clubs. Then, to make the whole business more positive, you can add a touch at the start of your back- swing. Instead of starting the club back from the ball with any other thought in mind you can put all of yor~ eggs in this one basket -- simply concentrate on exerting a downward pressure on the club with the heel of your left hand. This will get the club started away from the ball with your left hand and side set up as the leader. back of the ball. Then just keep your chin pointed OMHA Annual * On December 1st, Certificates Ready The annual meeting of the On- tario Minor Hockey Association will be held at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, on Saturday, De- cember 1st.

Former Bathoy : Heads Cinci Reds Cincinnati (AP) -- Gabriel How- ard Paul, who worked himself up from a batboy, took over the gen- eral managership of the Cincinnati Reds this week and said he would trade every man on the roster if it will help win ball games. The 41 - year - old former Reds vice president, who succeeds War- ren Giles, declared the floundering Reds are going to win more games next season than any Cincinnati club in recent years. The optimistic statements came after Powel Crosley, chairman of the board of Cincinnati ball club, | named Paul to fill the vacancy caused several hours earlier when Giles accepted the presidency of the Netional League. Terms' of Paul's contract and salary were not closed. Paul's first offidial act was to announce Luke Sewell will be re- tained 'as manager for the 1952 season. The 55 - year - old Giles, who wanted to be baseball commission- er but settled for Frick's former job, had this to say about his successor: "Gabe has done-a great job for me. He has done a great job with | me. He will 'do a great job for Cincinnati." Here's what-Paul says about the 1952 version of the Reds: "We are going to have a com- pletely, - changed ball club. You won't recognize it on the field next season. It may not be better, but it will be different."

Sport Shorts From Britain London (CP) -- Zucchero, the race horse that acts like a fugitive from psychiatrist's couch, is going to submit to the character analysis from a new source. As an experiment in turf therapy, | the sulky speedster will transfer from the clinical air of trainer Ken Cundell's stables to Bluewbury, Berkshire, where he will have his complexes probed by another prac- titioner of the trainfhg arts, Tommy Bartlam. Bookmaker George Rolls, who owns Zucchero, is reported to have chosen Bartlam after disagreeing ith Cundell '"'on several points" connections with the colt's train- ing. There was no indication what methods Bartlam would use in at- tempting to reform one of the most wayward horses ever to set hoof on a British track. Like the girl with the curl Zuc- chero is eigher very, very good or very, very bad. As a two-year-old, {he wound up a promising season bo: by refusing to start in several I races. At three, he was so moody L | that Cundell had to get special per- mission to walk him to the start- ing tapes. Just when Cundell was set to send Zucchero off to the glue fac- tory, neuroses and all, the contrary colt won a couple of good races, then ran a sparking second to Sup- reme Court in the Festival of Bri- tain stakes, the richest race ever run in this country. It looked as though Zucchero was nice and normal again. Praise was heaped on Cundell, who had toiled long hours with jockey Lester Pig- gott and other stable han¥s trying to find the secret locked away in Zucchero's equine subcénscious. Every time the horse kicked up a fuss, which was often, the handlers would say soothingly: "What are you doing?" Those words, spoken in the re- proving tone reserved for a preco- cious but impertinent pupil, seemed to be just what the doctor ordered. The cure seemed complete, and Zucchero was made early favorite for Britain's last classic race of the season, the St. Leger. He finished way back, flounder- ing in the rear of the runaway win- ner Talma II. A week later owner Rolls announced he was changing trainers. But racing fans, who backed Zucchero when he lost and were looking out the window when he won, still figure the horse's parents must have been frightened by 'a pari-mutuel machine. Meeker As M.P. Won't See Ice Till December St. Catharines (CP) - Howie Meeker said this week his duties as a member of parliament will likely keep him out of the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team lineup until mid-December. He added that as a young fel- low with long-view political am- bitions, he'll probably retire from hockey after this season. The right - winger who jumped directly from senior amateur hoc- key to the Leafs in 1946 shortly after his return from overseas was elected last summer as Progres-- sive Conservative member for Waterloo South. He said he'll continue to.train with the Leafs, who started pre- season workouts here early this week, until the fall session of par- liament opens Oct. 9. Then he'll go to Ottawa for the session, ex- pected to last about two months. After that, he plans to rejoin the team and play out the season if he's needed. "I've decided to attend the fall session," Meeker said. "I have to get experience in parliamentary procedure to do my job properly. It's all new to me and I want to continue as a member after the next election. So, I'll probably hang up the stick after this season, although I would like to finish this season with the Leafs."

(CP) -- Frank (King) Clancy, newly-ap- pointed coach of Pittsburgh Hor- nets of the American Hockey League, says big-time hockey or- ganizations encourage a top-flight puck youngster to further his edu- cation. Speaking particularly of Toronto Maple Leafs, National Hockey League team of which Pittsburgh is a farm club, he told a Knights of Columbus communion breakfast Saturday that boys must start young in hockey, as in most cases a player is atthe end of the trail when he reaches 30. "But a young hockey player to- day doesn't have to leave school when he signs with an NHL club. Education still is what counts once a hockey career is finished. To- wards this end, the Toronto or- ganization takes a young fellow, starts him off early, but will send him to school and pay such ex- penses as tpition and room and ard." One-Armed Lad - Is Rugby Star Van&ouver (CP) -- Denny Veitch of Vancouver fell off a moving freightcar 15 years ago and sub- sequently lost his arm. Today he is one of the star players on the Vancouver Meralmas of the Big Four junior rugby league here. That's not all, either. At the age of 20, he has been an all-star player in the Vancouver high school American football league, has played basketball, second di- vision English Rugby and soccer, and has even dabbled in tennis. On a night in June, 1936, Veitch, then five years old, and five pals were indulging in their favorite tricks, hopping on moving freight trains and riding a few blocks. As Veitch jumped on one car someone called out to him. He turned and lost his grip, falling on the track. When he returned from hospital he was minus one arm. Three years after that he first started 'fooling around" with sports, he said. When he was 12 he was playing with the Sunday school soccer league in Vancouver. Since then he has been going up fast in sport circles. In 1949 he re- ceived his biggest thrill when he was named all-star first string cen- tre in the inter-high school football set-up. He is treated by his fellow team members as just another player -- but a good one. 100TH WIN Pittsburg -- Howie Pollet of the Pirates won his 100th big league game last July 17, WARD'S are Headquarters for DOMINION TEXTILE PRODUCTS -- including -- ® Towels ® Sheets ® Sheeting ® Broadcloth o .Flannelette (Printed and Plain) Simcoe St. S.
