A TEST IN DUMMY PLAY
As is the case with so many hands, card. But his opening vulnerable bid the bidding should have shown South could have been justified only if he the winning play. The fact that West opened with a bid of three spades almost surely indicated a seven-card suit; and further developments should have revealed his distribution more clearly.

As it was, South led the Jack of diamonds from dummy. West won with the King and returned the eight, and South then lost another trick.

INSIDE OUT
BY BEST BALL
Cutting across the ball from the outside in is so common a trait that the golfer must school him- self to avoid it. Generally speak- ing this latter step means keeping the arms in fairly close to the body; preventing the right arm from swaying too far away from the right side on the upstroke so that its journey down is outside the path from the ball to the hole. To make impact such a swing must cut across to the inside and thereby impart a slicing spin to the ball. The main trouble here is that the ball will generally land on some other fairway than the one the player is aiming down.
Pushing the club back with left hand and keeping the right elbow in close will do a great deal to- ward keeping the clubhead on an inside out groove. To bring more emphasis into the idea, drive from the left side of the teeing ground, This is particularly effective when
