SWINGING SPEED

GRAPHIC GOLF

By BEST BALL

1-10

140 feet per second. That is the clubhead velocity achieved by golf's premier long driver, Jimmy Thomson. He reaches this speed a mere fraction of a second before impact and some estimate of this rapidity may be determined by glancing at the various clubhead positions in the above illustration. Each position is taken at intervals of one-one hundredth of a second apart.

At the moment of impact the clubhead is travelling at a rate of 137 feet a second and this has, at times, given the ball a ride of some 350 yards down the fairway. Immediately upon impact, the clubhead speed is reduced a mat- ter of 35 feet per second so that the start of the follow through is made at a rate of 102 feet per second. In the meantime the ball is soaring through the air at 194 feet per.

Mr. Thomson's follow through is considerably faster than the ordinary golfer's speed at impact.

BEST BEHAVED ARMY EVER

Behaviour of new Militiamen,

whom there are nearly-250,000, has been so perfect that only three have "been in serious trouble.'

The Swedish newspapers continue to praise Britain for the improvements recently achieved in the control of neutral vessels ports.

"It is found," said Mr. Lees-Smith "that the number of serious offences

Militiamen

could be among these counted on the fingers of one hand.

"They amounted, I believe, to three. "It is really an incredible record which is without precedent among tens of thousands of men for that length of time in the British Army.

"It is a test and justification of the schools of this country within the last ten years."

B.B.C. "MORALISING SCHOOLMASTER"

"It always seems to me that the presentation of B.B.C. news sounds as though it has been prepared by a moralising schoolmaster for a class of boys under twelve years of age."

This was one of the criticisms made in London by Miss Florence Under- wood, secretary of the Women's Free- dom League, replying to an address

taken into British by Mrs. Elise Sprott, B.BC WODA

Public Relations Officer.
