Washington. - The new congress
began its first session Monday and
before It was an hour old the house
In the new throes OF a spectacular
fight over the election OF = speaker.
The little progressive bloc, made
up of followers OF Senator Lafollette
of Wisconsin, refused to support
Speaker Gillett for reelection and
precipitated a deadlock, blocking all
other business.
Mr.. Gillett had the support OF the
Republican organization, but his
strength fell short of the majority
over all necessary to elect. The
Democrats voted solidly for Repre-
sentative Garrett of Tennessee and
the bulk of the progressive bloc
strength went to Representative
Cooper of Wisconsin.
Compromise negotiations to permit
an election within day or two were
expected by the Republican chiefs,
but as the voting went on there were
no indications OF capitulation to the
progressive bloc demand for conces-
sions in committee assignments and
changes in the house rules.
On the senate side things went
much more smoothly. By prearrange-
ment a truce was declared in the fight
over senate reorganization and after
a session of three-quarters of an
hour, adjournment was taken until
Tuesday out Of respect for senators
who have died during the 9-month re-
cess.
On the first ballot in the house
speakership fight Gillett received 1913
votes to 195 for Representative Car
ret and II for Representative Cooper.
Madden, Republican,
illinois, was given five votes.
Madden voted for Gillett. Berger, |
Socialist, Wisconsin, voted present as
lid Gillett, Garrett and Cooper. Then
he house began to take a second
,allot.
The second ballot, which also failed
o result in an election, was: Gillett,
80, Garrett, 1893; Cooper, II, Madden,

A third ballot was begun.

1 was able to effect cure for this
distressed golfer In very short
time. I asked him first IL he did not
recognize the fact that a slice was
sometimes an asset In golf. He sad
mitted that II might be to some. but
part of 1t. 1 asked him then If he
wanted to Intentionally slice a bali
how he would stand and how he
would hold the club. This started
him to thinking and he was mixed
up In jiffy. He started to aim the
ball to the right. but he was puzzled
greatly about his stance.
/ had to correct him, and in doing
so sent him back to his original
position. He stood with his left
foot drawn back from the line anf
aimed the bali to the rough on tn.
held the right hand well over the
club, instead Of under 1t. When he
hit the ball he drew the face of the
club across the ball. causing 1t to
twist from left to right. Aiming to
the left wassno help. About all that
course, at times. He was simply al
lowing for the slice instead of pre-
venting 1t.
Slice Has It's Merits.
The slice is like a dose of poison
to the duffer. but the expert. like
the learned doctor. uses poison to
advantage in his profession. AT
times ii, is necessary to slice around
tree or a building or it is an ad
vantage to play the ball with fade
away slice to the green.
There are two kinds of slices. One
is the slice so common to all be-
ginners and buffers. The shot is
produced by the body coming into
the shot too soon. The hands are
ball is hit while the. face of the
driver is coming across II. This can
easily be corrected by the stance and
the grip.
The player should advance the left
foot to the line of flight in what is
known as the square stance. II the
case is chronic II is necessary to
even advance the left foot still fur
Their. In this manner 1t is difficult
to pull the hands in. The player
should aim to the right of the fair
way and let the clubhead go TN
through for all that it is worth.
Grip For n Pull.
The grip is important also. I
would suggest that the player see
that the right hand is well behind
the club with the knuckles of the
left hand should be more over the
top of the shaft. When the ball is
hit, the hands. If in this position at
the start, will not permit the face
Of the club to slide across the ball
The hands will turn over naturally
and instead of the slice being i'm
parted to the shot the effect will be
a hook or what all experts know as
a pull.
The pulled shot runs a very long
way. The stance for II is what I
have described above as something
to correct a bad slice. The inter-
national slice is made by the expert
by shifting his stance just a little,
bringing the left foot back. He then
puts the right hand more over the
club and shifts the left. hand SO that
the back faces the hole instead of
the sky.
