The newly introduced Sportswear jack-et, designed primari ly for outeruse, com-pletes the golf picture for 1953.

Almost anybody can be a pro shop mer-chant in the spring when the season is starting and customers are j ump i ng with enthusiasm and eagerness to buy. But what really shows whether or not a pro is a businessman is when the season in the north may be coming toward its end. Then if the pro can promote play, keep golf interest keen and sell clubs, balls, bags and other merchandise he has in his shop, he's a businessman who is showing his worth to the club or course where he's located and he's preparing himself for a winter wi thout worry.

— Henry Bontempo

Ohio, August 14-15-16. The 1953 models together wi th Lady Burkes, Sav-A-Shot Special Purpose Irons, and numerous new accessories give Burke the biggest line in its history. Al l are now in production.

Cl imax to the meet ing was the First Annua l Burke Tournament in which sev-eral Ohio professionals also participated. Bi l ly Burke, former National Open Champ and a member of Burke's Advisory Staff, won the tourney with a 65 — one over the course record.

This is the time of the year when the pro should check up wha t his members have in their bags and see just what they need tha t will enable the pro to clean out his stock. W i th the trend toward fall and winter vacations growing the pro no longer has to think that the golfer at a club in the central states only has a month or so of the year left for the use of new clubs.

SPALDING INTRODUCES SYNCHRO-DYNED CLUBS

The 1953 Top-Flite Gold line woods and irons manufactured by A. G. Spalding & Bros., Inc., will be made under a new scientific formula. After 25 years of re-search, Spalding has perfected Synchro-Dyned golf clubs in which every club — woods and irons — is designed to have identical contact feel.

The Synchro-Dyned formula assures a scientifically correct combination of head, shaft and grip weights which produces a set of clubs with centers of gravity in perfectly coordinated sequence. "Synchro-Dyned" thus means a method of weight distribution producing synchronized force.

Spalding claims that Synchro-Dyned clubs have been put in the hands of hun-dreds of golfers and handicaps have been

KROYDON IN PRODUCTION ON THEIR NEW "VERTABRAE" SHAFT

The Kroydon Co., Maplewood, N. J., announce production on their completely new "Vertabrae" Contro-flex golf shaft.

The new shaft is the result of years of scientific research and is regarded by the Kroydon shaft and club experts to be the most advanced improvement in steel shaft design and construction in years. The new Vertabrae shaft for irons also com-bines advantages of the Kroydon Hy-Power shaft. The shaft shoulder is "built-in" rather than "bui l t up " with a false shoulder, with the vertabrae appearing down the shaft below the grip. A tremen-dous "k i ck " is claimed for the new shafts for woods. Kroydon's shaft specialists say that the scientific use, location and dis-placement of the Vertabrae principle of structure amplifies the driving power wave impulse as the power is telegraphed with in the shaft at impact. Ful l scale production on Vertabrae shafts already is in operation and models wil l be ready for delivery Nov. 1. The company's salesmen are now showing the new Kroydon shaft on their fall booking swing.

Golfers will appreciate the relaxing re-lief Bounce gives after a round of golf.

The container, about twice the size of a cigarette lighter, fits into jacket or pants pockets. I t is made by B O U N C E ! Incor-porated, Dayton, Ohio.
