HITTING STAGE PATTERN
BEST BALL:
The above illustrations of Dor- othy Kirby afford a good pattern for the average golfer to follow. There are many instructors, whtr- * suggest the beginning, golfer keep in mind a picture of the correct way to hit the ball; a mental pat- tern that will induce the player to swing largely in its image. - As shown above the stroke should be a sweeping one for the drive, with plenty of smooth body action, the clubhead coming onto the ball close to the ground and either on a slightly inside out arc or in a straight ahead manner of hitting. One should remember this point as one swings, for danger lies in hitting across the ball from the outside in. A slice for example, resulting from the left to right spin might carry the ball yards off its path. Or the same thing might happen if the clubface were uneven at impact with the ball.
It is always advisable to keep the clubhead at right angles to the ball at impact. To insure such a hit the body must keep constant through the swing as Miss Kirby is doing here. This keeps the clubhead path travelling in a simi- lar circle and with surprising re- sults. Keep the chin down and

A Ministry of Information daily sur- on vey of world comment gives the fol- lowing extract from the "Herald-Tri- bune" article:
"Because the British believe in free speech they respect the power of words but are not afraid of them. The Nazis have no respect for words-so they say but they are apparently ter- rified by magic properties, which they themselves assign to them.
WORD SHELLS
"They themselves have used words as shells in consolidating their system. Now they are taken in by their own necromancy and do not consider death too harsh a punishment for anyone who contaminates his Nazi soul
by listening to foreign incantations and sells his chance of entering into the Nazi Valhalla by yielding to the Devil when he offers him an earphone and secretly spreads carnal world of other broadcasts before him.
"The idea that any radio broadcas- ter could disseminate his personality so fully that death alone can be con- sidered an adequate antidote is a com- pliment to the profession so extreme as to be staggering in its implications.
UNNATURAL BONDS
"With death or the penitentiary hanging over Germans, they are ap- parently listening in to every bit of Allied Propaganda which gets through and
every bit which gets through must for this reason be twice as effective because of the horror which the Nazi regime professes to entertain vis a vis these voices from abroad.
"One can well understand Mr. Churchill's Impulse really to test the strength of a system which is put to gether with such fantastically unna- tural bonda’as these.—British Wireless.
