SHOE MAN & & & ^^•rm^-r: IG Play CWlP SMOT OPP R4SMT FOOT. fr»»\ TttE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS raphicG WATCH POSITION OF BALL IN CHIP SHOT errors in chip shot fcfay nnmi come from the wronf position of the ball at address. Played off th# right foot the shot appears much eas ier to play and gauge. It Is a simpler matter to judge the exact place wher« the ball should be hit Furthermore the ball can be kept low and better controlled in Its flight. Played further forward there Is danger of topping or as often happens slashing Into the turf underneath the ball. Accuracy Is needed in the chip and for this rea son a relaxed stance is a distinct aid with the hands and wrists doing a ma jor share of the stroke. The hands move back only slightly in the back* swing, the bend of the wrists affording the force of the stroke. Bobby Jones above stands with feet close together in this shot, a factor which aids his re laxatlon and enables the arms to swing freely with no sign of a body check. Bobby swings back slow and keeps the head down. Many golfers prefer the stralghter faced irons for this shot. •. It!!. Ball Sr»aic*t«.—WKC S*nrle«. Wbitti*r'i Personal Appearance ••In personal appearance John Green leaf Whlttler, the poet, was tall, erect, proportionately built, with a frame rather spare,H his biographer says. "He walked alertly and with a firm step. In his later years, after he be oame bald, he kept the white hair on the back of his head uncropped. He cultivated a beard that encircled his entire face. His forehead was nar row, high and receding. When his face, always mobile and youthful, was in repose, it was rather austere, yet Ut up with geniality." Old-Tim* CkimM Chimes of some pattern were fairly common In the Sixteenth century, and accounts rendered for their mainte nance afford quaint reading.
