Morrison "Hello, there," Frank Strana- han called to me over the heads of autograph hounds packed around him at the Riviera course during the recent U.S. Open. It was the first time I had seen Frank since his appearance at the Los Angeles Open last January. At that time I made several pictures of his swing during prac- tice and actual play. When I gave him some of these snap- shots he asked my advice about eliminating some of the awkward positions and movements which caused him to loop the club in both: backswing and downswing. This looping, to a great extent, accounted for his inconsistent scoring. He suggested a return to Los Angeles, at a later date, for a more thorough analysis of his swing and instructions about eliminating faults. : He "didn't return, and I didn't hear from him again until he hail- ed me in the crowd at Riviera. "I'm glad to have this oppor- tunity to tell you that I finally caught up with some of your teachings," he said. "A few weeks before the British Amateur 1 spent some time with Henry Picard. Henry always has been very kind to me, and he explained such things as foot action, body. balance and head position in terms. I readily understood. He showed me how these essentials affect the flight of the ball." With mounting enthusiasm, h continued: "I got to hitting the ball so well that I went right out and won the Delaware Open. Then I went to England, where I found rough weather and playing conditions quite different from those in America. The wind, es- pecially, forced me to comprom- ise a little on Picard's instruc- tions, but I'm convinced that the principle is right and worth work- ing for." Cricket Comment By Bert Boorer Restricting. Oakyille batsmen to 37 runs, Wentworth county up- set the Halton county hopes for the Matthews' Cup as they 'won {the semi-final match Saturday at Appleby college.

Only eight runs were up, a six by Macrae and two singles by Wells, when Tony was bowled by Langton, Four byes were scored and the total wis 13 when Chris Armstrong was bowled for zero. Robin Bourne was caught for 1, and Macrae for 7, and Ken Lambert was bowled for 1. Chas. Miller was caught for 2, and D. Dewar for zero, before Harry Witfen gathered 5. At 36, Frank Jones was caught' for 1, and Charlie Bradley was caught for 9 a moment later. Hamilton Smith was not out for one. Every possible catch was accepted by Wentworth fielders, so Langton has 5 wickets for 5 runs, Green- haulgh 5 for 24. Eight byes were scored. Wentworth opened with Wil- liams and Salmon. At 5, Dewar got Salmon Lbw. for 3, while at 18 Langton was caught by Jones off Dewar for 10. At 30, Caldwell was caught by Wells. Greenhaulgh and Williams then put on the winning stand.

TAXI CREW DROPS FROM O.S.A. PLAYOFF SCENE Held to one hit, a double by Heath, Oakville Taxi All Stars last week bowed out of the O.S.A. Intermediate playoff picture as they dropped the second game of their series to a strong Prestos squad by a 9-0 score. Only three local batters reached first base as Preston came through with an airtight defens- ive display, while pecking stead- ily at the offerings of Ken Crew. Several errors behind him didn't make the local hurlers task an easy one. The team will take part in a series of exhibition games before hanging up their gear for the season.
