Pinet Hogan Advises A Firm Grip With Both Hands By Lester Rice \ New York Journal-American Hand speed, the same sort of eye-baffling action with which Joe Louis rakes the chins of un fortunate adversaries is respon sible for Ben Hogan’s lofty es tate in Bunkerland today. The little muscular Texan of the tiny waist and broad shoul ders whose successive rounds of 66 and 67 rewarded him with a seven stroke advantage as the North and South open champion ship barged toward its finale, generates his extraordinary length from the tees * via two hard fists wrapped tightly about the leather handle of a 14 ounce mace. Contrary to accepted dictum, the 136 pound Hogan (he shed 32 ounces yesterday) neither ad vocates nor practices a soft grip with the right hand. With him, hard hitting emanates from hard gripping with both left and right. “You can’t possibly hit a golf ball far if you don’t have a tight hold upon the club,” Ho gan said after he had compiled the lowest two-round total in the 38 years of the tournament. “Naturally the hands themselves must be strong in order to ap ply the punch. “Weak hands tightly clenched have a tendency to impart too much rigidity to the wrists and thereby shackle them. My own wrists are affected somewhat by my hard grip but in a benefic ial way since they are unusual ly flexible.” Hogan gives the impression that he hits from the top of the swing like Jimmy Thomson but he says this is purely illusory. GYMKHANA AND PET SHOW NOW LISTED FOR TO-MORROW The third annual Pinehurst Pet Show and equestrian gymk hana will be held in the riding ring of the Carolina Hotel to morrow afternoon, instead of Saturday afternoon, as original ly announced. The date was put forward to avoid a conflict in date with the hunter trials which will be held Saturday afternoon in Southern Pines. The gymkhana events will in clude a basketball on horseback game, musical stalls, potato race, ribbon race, and amateur and opening jumping, all under the direction of Lloyd M. Tate. The program starts at three o'clock. Admission is free. Bring your pet along with you. It may win a prize. Advertise in the Outlook BEST COCKER SPANIEL IN DOG SHOW Velvet Daniel, Greensboro, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth J. Brethauer, winner in the class for cocker spaniels which had 26 entries, largest ip the Sandhills dog show. Velvet was also first \ in sporting breed group. “As a matter of truth,” he explained,” I delay the punch longer than most players. Slow motion pictures, I think would show you that my hands are pretty close to the ball before the wrists uncock themselves. My hands move down to the ball as fast as I can make them but the hand grip keeps the wrists from unlocking until they are upon the ball.” . It isn’t to be assumed that all Hogan’s length comes from the hands. His arms and shoul ders and firmly braced left side at impact all contribute to the smash. Despite his compactness he has an unusually wide arc and as Ky Laffoon pointed out his hitting area is remarkably long. Meaning that the club head comes into the ball close to i the ground from a distance well back of it and continues on through the ball for quite a spell before rising to its finish. Bob Jones had the same kind of extended width. That Hogan would win this North and South and thus break through to a big-time champion ship title no one doubted this morning as the concluding two rounds were to burst into ac tivity. His lead of seven strokes was wider than any since “Long Jim” Barnes spread-eagled the field at Washington 19 years ago. Had Hogan not gone on his rampage the scoring would have been considerably normal with Sam Snead and Johnny Revol ta at 140 and Craig Wood, Stan ley Home and Bobby Dunkel berger, the High Point, N. C. amateur at 141. I EXPERT TRAPSHOTS AMONG MARKSMEN AT PINEHURST GUN CLUB The Pinehurst Gun Club was the scene of much activity Sun day when quite a large number of parties enjoyed the shooting during the afternoon. Glenn Davis, manager, reports that several parties from Mc Cell, S. C., Charlotte and Aber deen, visited the club during the day. Among Pinehurst visitors who displayed their marksmanship during the afternoon were Mr. and Mrs. Albert W. Walker of Washington, D. C.—according to Mr. Davis, two of the best shots ever to visit the Gun Club. Mrs. Walker hit 25 straights, and Mr. Walker 24 out of 25 with a 410 guage. Mrs. John Wil liams Jr. of Philadelphia, Pa., sister-in-law of Mrs. Glenna Collett Vare, also took part in the sport. Australian Champion JAMES FERRIER winner of two Australian open and amateur golf champion ships, who is playing in the North and South open, and scored 75-78—153, to qualify for the final 36 holes. BRITISH SATISFIED LONDON, March 20.—<#> —The British government is “so satisfied with relations with the United States” that it is directing no special questions to America con cerning the significance of Sumner Welles* European tour but is “relying on their cour tesy to keep us informed/* Foreign Under-Secretary - R. A. Butler told the House of Commons today. TICKET TO NEW YORK FOUND A. L. Vosburg, a guest at the Carolina Hotel, has advised The Outlook that he found a return rail ticket Southern Pines to New York and that the name of the person who lost it, is on the ticket, which can be ob tained by calling and giving the name on ticket.
