WILLIE HUNTER

Member and captain British fnterna-
tiOnal golf team for several years, the
man who introduced golf into British
East and South Africa, and New South
Wales. Teacher of Willie Hunter,
British amateur champion.
The body pivot is largely a matter
of the free motion of the hips. 1t
is absolutely necessary because it
makes for a free swing. 1t allows
the weight. as we'll as the strength,
of the body to play a part in driving
the ball. When there is no pivot
the body is stiff and rigid and the
power of the stroke is lessened. This
rigidity destroys the timing of the
stroke and prevents the ball from
being hit at the instant when there
is the maximum velocity and mo-
mentum in the club head.

funds may be expended on mileage C not to exceed z per cent of the tota, road mileage of a state. The map showing Alabama's ' per cent system was drawn by the state commission to include 4000 miles in the system, when 1t was claimed that per cent of the system would be only $500 miles. The trip to Washington of Governor Brandon and MT. Keller was made in an effort to save the 200 miles differences to the state. A curious fact in this connection was that while figures of the state high way department show that ' per cent of the total mileage would be only 8, 700 miles, a federal check showed that the total mileage is such that per cent would be 4.000 miles, and the state is endeavoring to have the fed eral authorities adopt this last figure.
 MT. Keller reported on return that the federal government has donated to Alabama two portable steel build ings measuring G5X300 and 60x20O feet respectively which will be used by the highway department for ware present rented structures. The build ings received would have cost s40,- 900 to $50,0O0 if purchased, it was stated.

CARSON IS RELEASED
companion Of Clara Phillips To Be
 Expelled By Honduras

TEGUCIGALPA, June 7.-Jesse Carson, companion of Clara Phillips on her dramatic flight from Los Ang- Iese, was released from prison Thurs day after California authorities had informed the government of Hondu- ras they did not desire him held.
 Clara had built a romatic legend about the picturesque figure of her Cave Man Lover," telling how he kidnaped her from jail, hurried her to Honduras, and there planned a revolutionary coup that would make him leader in the country.
 Los Angeles officials have pune tured the bubble reputation she gave her escort. Jess is so unimportant they don't even want him arrested.
 Worse, and more of 1t, Honduras officials don't want him either. They deny any stories of revolution, and are merely going to expel Jesse from the country as an undesirable alien, and let it go at that.
 While denials are in order, author tiles announce they will ignore the interviews given out by Clara after her arrival in New Orleans.
 She had declared that constant stream of flattering proposals poured into her prison cell promis- ing freedom. immunity from extradi- tion, a palace all her own and fu- ture more than glittering would she deign to become the sugar baby of various Hondruran officials.

AMERICAN OFFICIALS
 VISITING IN RUSSIA
Bush, Beedy, Collins In Moscow
 BroOkhart Is Expected

MOSCOW, June 7.-By Associated Press. )-Yhe presence here of Irving T. Bush of New York, Representative Carroll L. Beedy of Maine and Rep resentative Ross A. Collins of Missis sippi together with the expected ar rival of Senator Brookhart of Iowa and other members of the American congress, is greeted by the Russian press as an indication that American interest in Russia is growing.
 Coming at a time when the soviet relations with the British are critical, these American arrivals are treated enthusiastically although in conVersa- tions with the correspondent the dis tingUished visitors mentioned have all agreed they were merely here in private capacity.
 The same is true of the French commercial mission" now in Moscow. This consists of private business men who say they have no official con- nection, although the French govern ment was aware of their intention to visit to Russia.
 M. Duberger. a member of the Paris bourse, who is with the mission, de- clared today he came in connection with private enterprises. He is not interested in the political situation although anxious that both the old and new French interests in Russia be perfected by some means.
 We do not entertain any imme- diate hope of an official French mis- sion following us," he added.
 The Russian newspaper published a long dispatch from a Rosta agency correspondent under New York date line, saying that the protests over the execution of Monsignor Butch- kaVitch are dying down and that the business interests of America are be- coming i1creas singly aware of the Ae- cessity for rapprochement with Russia.

LEGION Is NONPOLITlCAL
National Commander Reiterates State
ment That Organization Does
Not Mix in Controversies.

Replying to an assertion that the
American Legion was engaged in po-
litical activity in California, made in
congress by Representative Goody-
koontz Of West Virginia. Alvin Owsley,
Legion national commander, stated:
1.-THE American Legion reiterates
the statement that it is a nonpolitical,
nonsectarian organization. 1t is not
concerned whether its members are
Republicans, Democrats or Socialists,
Protestants. Catholics or Jews 1t is
the one all-inclusive American organi-
cation of ex-service men. The first
qualification for membership must be
that man or woman served America
in her great crisis. It follows then,
naturally, that the man or woman is
qualified to serve America in peace,
now.
"Ihe American Legion is not inter-
ested In the political destiny Of any
Of the great parties. A distinguished
congressman seems unable to read the
difference between loyalty to political
parties end loyalty to country. The
American Legion looks beyond and
above all consideration of party In
terest, and sees only the good of the
country.
MIR. Goodykoontz charges that the
Legion in California appreciates and
Is undertaking to circulate a speech
of William G. McAdoo, delivered at
Fullerton, Cal, last Armistice day, In
which he discusses the adjusted cors-
pensation bill I have no information
that this is true. But If it is, l must
also call the attention of the congress-
man to the fact that for more than
year the Legion has been circulating
TO its members and to the general pub
lie the addresses of Hon. Joseph w.
Fordney, chairman of the ways and
means committee of the house at the
present time, and the author Of the
adjusted compensation bill. Ii the dis
tinguished statesman from West Vir-
ginia will make a good speech favor
Ing the adjusted compensation bill, the
American Legion will, in all likelihood,
give the largest circulation to his
speech that he has ever had in all his
life"
