HITTING FROM THE ,ToPl0E
THE SWING
Mainly a Matter OF Balance

Jock Hutchinson is frequently
asked whether the stroke with the,
irons is more OF hii than that With
the wood, His answer is that the
difference is in the full swing, which
is usual with the wood. and IS short
ened little with the iron.
The trouble with the full swing IS
that IN making il the body must be
turned much more to the right on
the baekswing, and with the body thus
wound up. any effort is more likely
TO throw it out of balance.
This, according to Jock, i, one Of
the eommonest golf troubles, and in
nine cases out OF ten is what leads to
topping, slieing, hooking. or any one
OF the several other faults.

taps that are taken on the coils. If,
for instance, % turns would give best
results in the reception of par
ticular station, the coil could not be
adjusted exactly to % turns, because
taps are taken at every five turns.
and the nearest adjustment that
could be made would be to set the
switch on either the twentieth turn
or the twenty-fifth turn.
Some radio experimenter, who real
lied this disadvantage of the single
tap switch arrangement, with the
taps at every 5 to 10 turns, conceived
the idea of using two tap switches,
one to vary one end of the coil at
every turn and the other to vary the
turns in larger steps. The term usu-
ally applied to this arrangement is
the items and units" system Of coil ad-
justment, because usually taps were
taken at every turn for 10 turns and
each tap was connected with a switch
point on the units switch, and then
taps were taken at every 10 turns for
the rest of the length of the coil and
the taps connected with the tens"
switch.
The switch arm of one switch was
connected with the antenna and the
switch arm of the other switch was
connected with the ground. The turns

by setting the items" switch on the re-
quired group tap and then making the
finer adjustment with the units"
switch.
Even this method did not make IL
possible to get the most accurate ad-
justment often needed in receiving
from distant stations when the con-
stants must be just so, as the coil
could be varied only one turn at
time, so that the nearest adjustment
possible was within one-half turn
above or below the required point,
but in those days, when interference
was not an important factor, because
SO few stations were operating, the
need for finer adjustments was not
very great

The Antenna and Grid Circuits.
Part Ill


There are several ways in which
the constants of circuit can be
varied to produce the exact require
ments for tuning the circuits to a
particular point of electrical resonance
or syntony.
At this point we will separate the
grid and plate circuits and take them
| one by one, explaining in detail the
various common methods of adjusting
circuits to requirements.
In yesterdays circuit the antenna
circuit consisted of fixed coil con-
nected between the antenna and
ground. The coil had no means of
adjustment and could not be varied
to the constants required for differ
ent wave lengths.
1t is possible, however, by the sim
pie expedient of a tap or inductance
switch, or by means of a slider con-
tact arrangement of the type referred
to as tuning coils, to vary the num-
Der of turns of the coil to permit
tuning to different wave lengths.
Element Is Variable.
The symbol of one such arrange
ment which can be interpreted as
using either a slider arrangement or
tap switch arrangement. The ele-
ment is variable one. If tap
switch is used, taps or connections
can be taken off from the coil at
every five to ten turns and these taps
can be connected with the switch
points of the switch.
The number of turns in the circuit
between the antenna and ground can
then be varied by moving the switch
arm from switch point to switch
point.
While this arrangement is better
than the one where no adjustment at
all is permitted, it is not satisfactory
where the coil must be adjusted
rather accurately, because the ad-
justment can be made only within the
limits imposed by the rather coarse

MINIMUM WAGE LAW

Federal Judge Rules Against Ap-

Adults-Children Not Affected.

By the Associated Press.

SUPERIOR, Wis, December 3d.
Wisconsin's minimum wage law is
invalid in it's application to adult
women, a final decree given by Judge
c: Il. Luse in Federal district court
yesterday declared The decree also
restrained the State Industrial Com
mission from enforcing such pro-
visions of the law.
Judge Luse's ruling does not affect
the law as it governs wages of minors.
The findings are a result of an action
brought by the Folding Furniture
Works, Incorporated. of Stevens Point
Wis, which asked for an order re-
straining the Wisconsin Industrial
Commission from preventing the en-
ploynient of women at a wage less
than the 25 cents an hour set by the
law.

Long distance reception is largely

the atmosphere is not free from static
noises II is useless to include radio
frequency amplifcation or to make
heavy regeneration, because while
these additions will increase the sig

noises louder.
