JUDGING FROM THE SUCCESS of last night's swim-ry and refreshments will be served.
ming gala at the new Army pool at Victoria Barracks, this venue will prove very popular as the season progresses.
Conditions for both competitors and spectators could not have been better. The stands were packed and the moon overhead and delightful swing music by the band of the Royal Scots made for a most enjoyable evening.
The standard of swimming was good, -although lack of the competitive ele- -ment turned most of the events into -exhibitions more than anything else.
Nevertheless there were some good -times returned. David Hutchinson, for instance, bore out the promise the
V.R.C. authorities made of him at the beginning of the season, by winning -the 100 yards free style, from scratch,
In the splendid time of 59 seconds.
A. K. Rumjahn, another certain In- terporter, also impressed in the 100 yards backstroke which he won in the face of severe handicapping in 72-3/5 .seconds.

LINING UP THE PUTT
BY BEST BALL
The golfer who dallies too long over his putt is very often none too popular with either his play- ing partners or the foursome be- hind, anxiously awaiting the next shot to the green. Indecision on the green is generally reflected in itself. There the actual stroke are exceptions of course and al- ways will be when
one comes of methodical type
across the player who wants to make certain no little detail has been
over-
looked in his calculations. On the other side of the picture there are the Ouimets, for example, who lose no time in the selection of the path or the stroke execution,
To do justice to one's own game however there are certain number of checking privileges allowed but the golfer owes it. to the tradition of the game to accomplish these with no undue waste of time. In many cases they form a definite the line routine, i.e., checking from the ball to the cup and vice versa, contemplating the line from a crouching position behind the ball as Johnny Goodman is shown doing above, lining the putter head both in front and aft of the ball before stroking. The purpose of placing the putter in front of the ball is to line-up the face at right angles to the ball and the line of the ball's flight. This also gives one a more exact idea of the path to the cup.
