In the Journal Of the Franklin lnsti-

non rs well us the philosophy of twist
ed balls. Multitudes of fans who
have always supposed that the battling
qualities of straight pitched ball
were due simply to Its swiftness never
suspected this eccentricity. Professor
Franklin states the case In this way:
Consider very smooth ball which is
moving through still water without
spinning. There is certainly no more
reason why the ball should jump to
the right than to the left. Therefore It
must continue to move straight for
ward. That is good logic. But such n
ball IL no more subject to logic than is

by dropping smooth marble in jar
of still water. The marble goes nearly
straight for several inches and then
suddenly jumps sidewise. Similarly a
smooth baseball jumps sldewise irreg-
ularly as 1t moves through the mir II
the ball Is not spinning.
The explanation lies In the fact that
rapidly moving stream of air splits
when 1t flows past ball with unstable
dividing lines or vortex sheets. The
unstable sheet will squirt now upward,
