The following "potted" inter- views give an indication of the
feelings of the clubs:-
Miss B. Quin-Hong Kong Ladies have not yet held their meeting. They would support a League if there were sufficient teams com- peting. In the absence of દા League they will still arrange friendly games, as in the past, for the game's sake.
Mrs. G. C. Burnett-"Y" Ladies have five players only, and so we can only wait and see what hap- pens. All our players are stili

BEFORE MAKING STROKE, LAWSON LITTLE'S TIP
Little's Recovery Programme
77-26
BY BEST BALL Possibly one of the reasons Walter Hagen played rogovery shots so well is that he en- joyed them. Of course few golfers do. Most of them dread .a shot out of the ordinary routine of play as much as, they do a seven foot putt for. Sa halve. But we have a sus- picion the Haig relished the situation, knowing full well that he had a cool mind to devote to the task, the imagination to find an out and the concentration to make his club do his bidding.
Lawson Little probably hits the keynote of Hagen's psy- chology in his own estimate of recovery shots. Little works a good deal harder on these shots, than the usual run of stroke because he realises that an unexpected success may Jar an opponent into making errors. Little has no definite méthod of playing. recoveries. Each problem is different but he solves them as he so aptly phrases-it; "by: visualising the flight of tho*- ball in detail and then trying to make the "ball" follow the pattern I have set up."!
