today and drink cocktails as fast
as a dozen bartenders can mix
them.
The five who drink the mixtures
won’t be allowed to order the
drinks. For once, they will have
to drink what the bartenders give
them. When all the cocktails have
been finished, the five will try to
collect themselves and make an
important decision. They are the
official judges who will decide
what cocktail is to be the official
drink of Maryland’s Preakness
Week in May when the horses run
in the state’s famous Preakness at
Pimlico track.

ALEX MORRISON says:
Arthur J. Ammos Buffalo, N.
Y., asked me to help him select
some new wood clubs. Among
other things he wanted my ad
vice about the length of club he
should use. This matter of length
came to mind when he discovered
that the clubs he had been using
were much longer than mine.
Mr. Amm is about 5 feet 10,
while I stand 6 feet 1. He
couldn’t understand why I used
a club shorter than his. His driv
er measured over 43 inches. The
longest shaft in my wood clubs is
less than 43 inches, and I hold
the club with my left hand a
couple of inches or more below
the top of the grip. This makes
it much easier to keep the ball
straight. It also makes the wood
club swing like an iron.
Some distance may he sacrificed
when you try this, but I’m
that you’ll find a great advantage
in direction. Long wood clubs
may give you the feeling of great
er power but it is not the kind of
power you need.
