AFTER THE FOOTBALL GAME
See Recipes Below.
If you are entertaining the crowd
after the game, you’ll find substan
tial refreshments in favor; for the
same crisp air that puts football
players on their toes breeds keen
appetites.
It’s good social strategy to ar
range everything buffet style and let
the guests help themselves. You’ll
rwant a table that
is festive, easy to
handle, and yet
casual. You may
even want to set
up card tables in
the living room to
make your guests
comfortable after
they have helped
themselves from the buffet.
Natural colored linen, or rough
homespun cloth will make a smart
background for your serving table.
Candles are often used very effec
tively, when serving buffet style, for
they add both atmosphere and light.
If you double as hostess and chief
cook, you’ll enjoy the game twice as
much if you plan a menu that can
be prepared beforehand. Sandwich
makings and a hot steaming bever
age are a wise choice. Then wind
up the feast with ice cream and
chocolate cake.

HOUSTON HOME JOURNAL, PERRY, GEORGIA
UT from the tumult and the
turmoil of the football season
the time seems to be about ripe to
turn to the even greater tumult and
E_ turmoil of another
| game—golf. Here is
| World series, in
cluding* football
I tours, we traveled
with a pair of young
| men by the names
I of Billy Burke and
I Horton Smith. While
Grantland Ric others were full of
oratory concerning
Newsom, Derringer, Walters and
blocking backs, Messrs. Burke,
Smith and your correspondent inter
polated our share of golf, from both
the inside and outside angles.
The Sway in Golf
Billy Burke was talking about the
sway in golf.
“This is one of the misunderstood
terms in golf,” the former champion
and one of the best instructors said.
“I sway. Most of us sway. You
have to sway a little. But my first
sway is really a lateral hip shift.
I sway from my left hip to my
right, before I start to turn. But
the upper part of my body doesn’t
sway. My head doesn’t sway—or
even move.
“The trouble with too many golf
ers,” Burke continued, “is that they
sway the wrong way. They sway
with the upper part of the body.
They let their heads drift with the
swing. When this happens the back
swing is all gone, and so is the down
swing. There is neither power nor
control left. When the upper part
of the body—above the waist, in
cluding the head—starts to sway or
shift, the swing is then completely
wrecked. For all balance is de
stroyed.
“I’ve watched thousands after
thousands try to hit a golf ball in
this way, but it can’t be done. It
isn’t even possible, even if a Hagen
or a Jones tried it.”
Complete Agreement
“Billy is just 100 per cent cor
rect,” Horton Smith cut in. “For
the good golfer I
wouldn’t exactly 1
call it a sway. But
there is a swaying
hip motion from the M ,Mm
left to the right, be- #***?*
fore you turn. But
only the hips are in
volved in this first L
motion. The second f
the shoulders and WT
head sway with this - VjBV /” -]
motion you are all s. mkSJ- .....4
through. You might Hor t on Smith
call it a left to right
bend in the middle of the body, but
not in the top of the body.
“Certainly the head must be fixed
in one spot—the anchor to the swing.
But don’t let that head move an
inch until the ball is on its way.”
“What follows after the hip sway
or shift?” I asked Horton Smith.
“That starts the backswing,” he
said. “Then the next move is a nat
ural body turn. It is really quite
simple. After the first lateral hip
motion, where the major part of the
weight is now on the right foot and
leg, the next move is to let the left
side turn. Just as if you were
throwing a ball. The left knee, the
left hip, the left shoulder all come
around together. In this way at the
top of the backswing you have a
feeling both of control and power.
“You are now in a position to use
your hands and wrists, in place of
trying to call on your shoulders and
your body for most of the punch.
“What so few golfers understand,”
Horton Smith continued, “is that
bad foot and bad body action can
lock the hands and wrists.
“Of course, the feet and body be
long to the swing. But they must be
used so the hands and wrists are
free to swing the clubhead. Don’t
let them get in the way. Don’t let
them lock the swing.
“In the average swing you see so
many golfers first dig their feet into
the ground, then lock both legs, then
sway the upper part of the body.
They can’t move anything else. But
if they first take the lateral hip shift
or sway—left to right—keep the
head in place and then take a nat
ural body turn, they will be all set
to get much better results.”
Along the northern belt the trail of
the outdoor campaign will soon be
leading to the indoor schools or to
the sun. But there is still time
enough left to try out one of the
soundest ideas in the game—which
includes largely a head that always
keeps its place.
Use That Left Hand!
I asked Billy Burke about the cor
rect use of the two hands.
“We all have to teach and advo
cate the use of the left hand more,”
he said.
“I’ll tell you why. Golf is really
a two-handed game. But with the
average golfer it is only a one-hand
ed game—l mean the right hand.
Here you have the stronger hand
hitting forward. It is a natural
action. But if the left hand quits in
golf there is neither control nor pow
er left.

31 Presidents
Although Roosevelt is officially
listed as the thirty-second Presi
dent of the United States, only 31
men have actually held the office.
The discrepancy is explained by
the fact that Grover Cleveland is
down in American history as the
twenty-second and twenty-fourth
President—the only President who
served two non-successive terms,
Benjamin Harrison’s term inter
vening.—Pathfinder.
