Golf Lessons e \ 'TO£reTW€«. > Foa, l O-ose SHOTS nr Number S55 ALEX MORRISON says? In short shots where the swing is nude mainly with arms and hands you wouldn't expect a play*- ■ er to have much trouble with hu body. Using eo little body action, you'd figure that the matter of placinf the feet would be quite aim pie. To many golfer* this is a seri ous problem. Most of there place their feet too far apart. The wider stance should be reserved for long shots and swings where considerable power is needed. The spread between the foot should always be in keeping with the power of the shot. Obviously, the short approaches, calling for comparatively little power in the •wing, need little if any spread between the feet. The best playert stand with their haels almost touching, much as they stand when putting. This makes the body more comfortable and steady. * THEY DO IT FOR FUN 1 'MOD HURLERS AREjySSING Rudy York, Husky Catcher, To Be Main Spring Of Club • BY VIN Bl'RKE BEAUMONT. March 14. —<AV Mark the Exporters down right now as dangerous. They finished third in 1934 and with much of the same crew back for 1935 they fig ure ae first division contenders The 1934 team was young and plavsd good ball. It is thus a reasonable aasumpt.on that these same ath letes with added age and experience will do better m the forthcoming campaign. Much depends on pitching. Steve Larkin. Vic Frasier and Jake Wade are gone, Larkin and Wade to De troit. and Frasier to Montreal, but among them they won only 3* games last year and that shouldn't be so difficult to replace. Clarence "Red’ Phillips, who won 15 games last year before being summoned to Detro.L is back for a full season and the big fellow rates at least a 30-game per.orm ance in 1916. There are forty athlete* in camp conspicuous among them ia Rudy I York, optioned to Fort Worth last year, who will do t majority of the catching for Manager Dutcn Lorbeer. Rudy is the big punch oi the squad He has terrifie power, as] evidenced by his home run record in 1934. and as a catcher (he has had little experience In th.a po*J-l tlon). he is one of the outstanding prospects in the minors. And so, when the battery of Phil lips and York is announced, don't wager the family Jewels on the home club—unless you happen to be In Beaumont. Infield Same Tha infield should be much as It was with the exception of first base Oeorge Archie who hit .337 for Muskogee in the Western Associa tion, la slated to succeed the de narted vateran. Lee S'.ebbins. Archie had his first taste or organised baseball In 1934 and ts regarded as a comer. He bats and throws right handed Othem.se. the inf.eld should find Don Rosa at third. Roy Pfleger, who alternated with Salty Parker, at shortstop; and A1 Vin cent at second. Returning members of the out field are Hugh Sheliey, Biddv Bates and Jerry Mallett. In addi tion are Bill “Elmer the Great’ Cox, a slugger from the Untversilv of Inldana; Maurice Shelby, lead ing hitter of the Hill Country league, Morris Jones from Mus kogee and half a riosen others. Ph ilips, Joe Hare, Judge Schulz George Gill, Pat McLaughlin and Paul Sullivan are 1934 pitchers again in the fold, and to these have been added a doser. more for tryouts. Prank Cook, east Texas league; Pal Flanagan. Evangeline league; James Bratton and John •Jarrett, Mid-Atlantic league and Irvin Stein, East Dixie league are some of the more promising pros pects. With York doing moat of the catching, Lorboer may do the rest or he may become a bench mana ger only, by making M.ke Tresh. another hold-over, second-string catcher.
