PULL SHOT ON GOLF
LINKS Is EXPLAINED
Played by Club Converging Out
WardIy and UpWardIy.
Modified Spin Acts In Same Manner
as That in Which One Wheels Bar
rel or Milk Can on Rim by
fitting 1t Sideways.

1t Is well known among golfers that
the pulled ball is good runner. but
mot many players know why it is so.
We have seen that the pull is played
by the club converging outwardly and
upwardly across the ball and thus inn
parting what we have called modified
overspin to it.
The ball swings away out to the
right, keeps low and gradually curves
into the left. AS it hits the ground. it
is probable the shock of landing alters
the axis of spin so that, instead of re-
naming at approximately the normal
angle of the pull, say 80 degrees, it is
suddenly changed to something much
nearer the horizontal
In this manner the spin is changed
into pure running.
Even il this change does not take
place-and one cannot be dogmatic on
this point, for obviously if it does the
angle will not be the same in every
case-the pull will still run well.
The reason for this is that in that
case the modified overspin acts In the
same manner as that in which one
wheels a barrel or milk can on the
rim by fitting it sideways. That is a
clear example of the way in which
the pulled ball at golf runs. The hoop
or the bottom end of the barrel repre-
sents the plane of rotations, otherwise
the spin of the ball, and even as one
rolls the barrel, so runs the pulled ball.
From this explanation it will be seen
how impossible it would be to obtain
this angle of spin, that produces the
characteristic run of the pull, by mere
ly turning over the hands, or either Of
them at the moment of impact.

Perth Amboy Bridge Scandal
to be Heard Again Next
Month

TRENTON, Oct. 24.-The legisla-
tive probe committee which has been
investigating charges of graft and
corruption connected with the pur-
chase by the ousted State Highway
Commission of approaches to the
proposed Perth Amboy bridge. will
resume it's hearings on Wednesday,
November 81, at the State House

mittee and Attorney General Thomas
+. McCran, counsel to the commit
tee.
Following hearings extending over

dent of the Lumber Company, when
the concern was sold to Alonzo Me-
Dowell and Thomas j. Evans.
When the probe was OF last
spring, Mr.. Donnell was said to have
been in New York State.
A paper p%urporting to be an
agreement between Donnell on the
one hand and Mcdowell and Evans
on the other, was produced at the
previous sessions by the Attorney
General. This agreement was drawn
up in October, 1922, it was said. and
was part of the negotiations in con-
n~ection with the sale of the company

mittee strictly sub rosa.

STELT0N COLONY CASE
AIRED IN CHANCERY COURT

NEWARK, Oct. 24:-The one
question that came up before Vice
Chancellor Foster yesterday in the
case of Sue Tarlo Kuttner and Sig
mund Kuttner of Stelton was
whether these two people are COM
mon law husband and wife"
Mrs. Kuttner alleges that she is
the common law wife of Kuttner and
is backed up by her father, sister
and brother-in-law, while Kuttner
claims the couple were not married
and is backed by the eight members
of the so-calied radical colony at
Stelton.
Vice Chancellor Fo ter denied yes-
terday temporary alimony for Mrs.
Kuttner and her two-year-old daugh-
ter Lucille. Kuttner denied tn mar
riage and refused to recognize the
child as belonging to him. Mrs.
Kuttner will bring suit against him
for separate maintenance.
At the court yesterday Mrs. Kutt-
ner declared thai the couple were
married by the common law on Feb
fuafy j, WV, and the daughter was
born on May 8, 1921. She also de-
clared that she had often asked
kuttner TO marry her by ceremony
and he promised he would. She con-
tinued to bother him about the mar
riage until he disappeared on Octo-
Der l, 1921. He remained away two
years and last week returned to
Stelton again.
Last Monday he was arrested on a
writ preventing him from leaving
New Jersey during the course of the
court action. He furnished bail to
the amount of $1,000 and appeared
yesterday at the court.
The court asked David Booker. at
torney for the defense. what sort of
a colony is the Stelton colony" To
this Booker replied that in New
Brunswick it is Known as more or
less radically minded. Booker also
declared that Kuttner paid the ex-
penses of Mrs. Kuttner's child at its
birth, but the cou- failed to have
an affidavit to that effect.
