gkRy - GRANT, AND DICE

The number of athletes in other
lines seeking foreign entanglements
in golf is expanding swiftly and
heavily. :. ..
More and more the ancient pas
time is reckoning recruits who
have earned the olive upon other
fields. and even when they still
follow their own -favorite psstime,
golf is their next choice.
For one example, word comes
from England that Bombardier
Wells has gone in, for golf with
the idea of being a professional at
some early date.
Wells was one Of @, the queerest
products of the ring. Standing
feet l. weighing 200 pounds, he had
exceptional boxing skill and speed,
with, more than average .intelli-
gence.
He might have been a world
beaten II he had been able to wear
shock absorbers on the tip of the
Jaw or the pit of the stomach. .
The Bombardier has always been
a keen golfer. and he has now re-
duced'. his game around q or rs
and is rated as one of the longest
hitters in the British Isles. Not
even Abe Mitchell. or Ted Ray can
outpoint him many inches
So the announcement. that Wells
is in charge of some golf club may
break at almost any early date.
There Are Others.

that Welker Cochran, the billiard
star, is one OF the finest golfers In
California.

!. The Fellow Through.
: We have received a number OF
queries lately as to how one should
develop the right follow through.
A better phrase is the "hit
through" Tho follow through Is
not cause In golf. but an effect.
II the punch Is properly delivered
with the club head attaining its
maximum, speed as 1t lands upon
the ball. the follow through will
take care of Itself.
II one checks the swing before
hitting the ball, through lifting the
head or tightening the grip too
soon. or raising the shoulder, there
will be no follow through.
The main scheme is to get the
idea Of the hit through into your
head and let what follows take care
of Itself. :
There is no club in the. bag that

CommerciaIizing Atomic Force

It's central character, a chemist named Hol-
stem. suddenly hits upon the key to atomic en-
ergv In the opening passages Of this book Mr..
Wells has Holster listening 70 a classroom lee
ture being given by celebrated savsnt. Holster
hoe been speculating on the theory Of atomic
or.rov for long time, so his interest Is i'm
-,oiia+elv caught when the professor tells his
class:
II the other elements are doing with imper-
aaa+;bIs sIouyness. Radum IS an ele-
rnent that is breaking up and flying 20 pieces
Thon the professor holds up a small bottle IN his
b.nd "This little bottle" he says contains
bo,,+ mint Of uranium oxide. And in the bottle
slurobers AZ least as much energy as we could get
- b,,rrinq about so tons Of coal. II. al a word
u one Instant could suddenly release that
energy here and now, it would blow US and every
thing about Us 10 fragments
His imagination fired by this, Holster applied
himself to experimentation. Then one day he
set I'D atomic disintegration in a minute particle
Of bismuth.
Confusion followed the commercialization Of
Holsten's principle No system for distributing and
controlling the energy had been worked out. Fac
tories shut down Stocks went TO nothing. The
rich made a mad rush TO possess the new atomic
automobiles and atomic aeroplanes. But the
moor lowered about as under a cloud, not under
standing what it was all about Finally came a
world war in which the principal weapon was the
atomic bomb. BY means of this bomb cities
could be wiped out in very short while. And
ss there was no defence against IT, all q the
principal cities Of the world were soon in ashes
At almost the same time that Dr. Aston was
sounding his warning mere mortal was already
taking a fling at playing Jove. In his laboratory
at Schenectady. y. Y, DR.. Charles P. Stenmetz
the worlds most famous electrical engineer, was
producing and controlling an indoor thunder
storm that had all the characteristics Of the
siu1on-pure heaven-sent article. The forked
tongue Of lightning leaped through space with a
crash and shattered miniature tree from tip
70 base DR.. Steinmetz's generator consisted Of
a high voltage condenser Of the form of 200 glass
plates These were arranged in two rows in
groups Of so and were capable Of holding 10000
volts Of electricity
Dr. Steinmetz declares that it is entirely pos
sible 10 produce an artificial lightning bolt tina.

be too dangerous 70 observe az close quarters.
But it plainly lies within the power Of Science
to destroy cities and cOuntrysides at a stroke n

Science EXPLAINS Energy

In 1898, Pierre and Nine. Curie discovered
adium-an element found to have extremely
high degree Of radioactivity and a remarkably
high energy This discovery amounted TO a final
proof that the ray given of by certain substances
such as uranium, thorium radum actinum, and
others a form Of energy. It also consoli-
dated and gave credence to the growing belief
that this energy was caused BY the breaking up
Of atoms. An inevitable corollary Of this latter
belief was that all other substances were going
through a similar process Of disintegration, bus
at different rates Of speed.
The definite acceptance Of this theory ex-
plained many phenomena which had hitherto been
inexplicable. 1t explained how it possible
for the sun TO give off heat for its hundred mil
lion years Of life. 1t also opened up stupendous

and physicists spoke of atoms if they were so
many bricks with which matter was built up.
But along in the late nineties Sir Oliver Lodge
foretold the birth of new atomic theory in sew
eral discussions which, while purely speculative
and philosophical, turned out to be physically
sound He spoke Of the breaking up Of atoms
In 1896, Alexanare Becquerel, the French chem
ist, discovered in the element known as uranium
a peculiar quality which afterward called
radioactvity This radioactivity is defined as a
DYNAMIC property found in certain bodies Of high
atomic weight which causes it to give off pecu-
liarlv characteristic rays invisible to the eye but
capable Of penetrating objects opaque to ordi-
nary light.
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1922-05-07

possibilities, the most terrifying Of which
recently suggested by Or. Aston. For II radium
possessed its tremendous energy because Of the
speed with which il was breaking up any ordi-
nary element could be given the same power II
some way could be found to make its speed Of
disntegration equal to that Of radum. And
once this way was found it would then be simple
enough to so accelerate the breaking up speed
Of any group Of atoms that the process would be
virtually instantaneous.
Some Of the stupefying possibilities that exist
in the unrestricted use Of such invention
this were suggested in a pre-war novel by h. Q.
