Lady Titlist Beaten
The American Women's Golf Championship provided many first round surprisca, chief of which was the elimination of Miss Betty Jameson, the title-holder.
Miss Grace Amory. Miss Jean Baucr and Mise Alice Berlanger, who shared with Miss Jameson, the lead in the previous day's qualifying round, were also beaten in the first match stage, but Miss Jameson's, exit was near the sensational, as she held what seemed a winning lead of four holes at the half-way stage.
The champion took only 38 strokes for those nine holes, and her opponent. the bespectacled Miss Janet Younkter, could do nothing right.
Afterwards, Misa, Jameson played well enough, but Miss Younker staged an amazing recovery, taking only 34 strokes for the last nine holes to over. haul the champion, and win on the last groen.
Mrs. Page, a former champion, play- ed 19 holes before beating Mra, Paton, but Mrs. Vare, better known as Mirs 'Glenna" Collett, Miss `Maureen Norcuft and. Miss Marlon Miley, three 'Curtis Cup players, all had easy wins with four holes to spare-Reuter,

The golfer who Is hesitant through the fair- way and near the greens -shows it in the manner; in which he makes his shots. Instead of hitting downward the player tries to raise the ball up, generally by scooping or trying to get under it with. the clubface. Such procedure Is bound to fall; the ball must- be hit on the downswing leav- ing the raising of the ball to the loft of the clubface. This will do the job-if given the chance.
Metz hits down sharply on the ball, hitting decisively and taking a divof from the turf. In the above illustration he is. hitting one out of the rough over the Colonial Club at Ft. Worth, The position of his follow through leaves no doubt as to the way he has struck! the ball. Much of tho-aver-
