Few track stars have been de-

the tact that they have had no

Larry Brown of Penn? Brown
was a star middle-distance runner,
especially formidable over the 880.
In 1921 he hung up a world record
of 2:12.! for 1.000 yards. The same

ous mile relay quartet composed of
Brown. Rodgers. Eby and Maxam.

The ball must be hit firmly and
crisply with the mashlc. with all the
irons in fact. and, that cannot 1v:
done easily if we tand too far awn):
more over the
ball, and from that position we are
letter able to control the club-head.
It is power as much as accuracy
that is essential in the approach on
that very point. When, hewcvcr,
the stance is far from the ball. the
swing is seldom true. and. worst of
all. the balance of the body is apt
to be upset.
There is little body movement in
the mashie shot, but that will creep
in if one stance isjar from the ball.
Watching the players in a. tourna.
merit a short time ago. I saw many
who had this fault. and as there was
a good deal of wind blowing, many
approaches never found the greens
at all. That is. of course. fatal in a
stroke competition;.in fact in any
match. ,
Standing too far away. the club
does not come up straight enough in ,
a tunable approach. It inclines to
be swung round the right leg.
