Lateral Hip Slide
Speeds Up Stroke

After Abe Mitchell slides his hips
laterally TO the right--the flrst
movement OF his drive--he starts the
club back with o straight left arm.
Here rests much Of the secret OF his
success in gaining such tremendous
distance. wild Bill" Mehlhorn re-
Gently stated that length comes from
speeding UP the club head, not from
hard hitting. That Is true.
With that to work on, let US look
into how Mitchell speeds up his club
head. Abe takes the club back with
a straight left arm. But his hands
lead. In other words, he drags 1t
back by bending his left wrist so
that the left hand points toward the
ball. Later, as we shall see, this
bend of the wrists permits him to
throw the club head up and around
over his shoulder. The unwinding
process Of these wrists on the down
swing gives him tremendous accel-
GRAFTON with the club head.
What is patent in Mitchel's swing
at this point Is the arrangement IN
it for keeping his left arm straight.
This is accomplished by the already
made lateral hip slide to the right.
This move lowers the left shoulder
and hip. The result Is passageway
for the left arm to swing straight
back under the chest and close to 1t.

ventiCn, though other entertainment
was provided by the committee of
which Jack Scheaf was chairman.
Much business was transacted at
the Monday session. One of the big
questions, and one that brought forth
much discussion, was that of the
talking movies and their effect on
theatrical employees. A resolution was
adopted which provides that any the
atre having a stage and switchboard
on the stage showing sound or talk
ing pictures, shall be required to en-
ploy at least one man on the stage
who shall be classed as a maintenance
man.
Another resolution called for the
appointment Of committee to draft
rules for the conduct of the district
conventions. Another resolution pro-
vides that at the next district con-
ventlon there shall be school depart
ment for the general officers. In ad-
dition many other matters of much
Importance to the members of the
craft were discussed and debated.
During the day talks were delivered
by international President William
Canavan, international Secretary
Richard X. Green, Arnold Bill, of
Cleveland, president of the Ohio
State Federation of Labor, president
of the Ohio State Carpenters, and
president of the Ohio State Building
Trades Council; George Jockel, of
Cleveland, president of the Ohio State
Bricklayers; Charles J. Case, of Gin
cinnati, secretary of the Ohio State
Building Trades Council, and others.
The address by International Presi
dent Canavan was a most stirring
one. He reported studios on the west
coast to be 100 per cent union, and
gave an extended review of conditions
within the union, saying satisfactory
progress is being made on the east
coast. He spoke at length on the
matter of employment of out-of-town
members of other locals, and recon-
mended strongly that in times of dis
tress each local help other locals. He
discussed many other topics of inter
est to the delegates.
All in all the convention was big
success. More than so local unions
were represented. The committee,
headed by Jack Scheaf, left nothing
undone to help matters along, and is
deserving of much credit for the man
ner in which all details were cared
for. At the conclusion the delegates
voted the session one of the best ever,
Hamilton one of the best towns in
which to gather, Local 1876 a live
organization, and the committee in
charge humdinger.

bill, passed by the last congress, and
which empowers the government TO

wrecked by the United States supreme
court.

defender of popular control of Muscle

The lewiston was on the interpreta-
ton of what constitutes an adjourn
ment of congress, and was made in
the case fo several Indian tribes who
secured passage of bill that would
permit them to present certain claims

The bill, together with the Muscle
Shoals bill, was presented to Presi-
dent Coolidge at the closing days of
congress that did not adjourn sine
die, but for several weeks. He took
no action on either bill This is called

The constitution provides that if

With Mo days afte ri It's presented to
him the same shall be law in like
manner as if he signed it unless the
congress by their adjournment pre-
vents its return, in which case it shall
not be a law"
If the court held that an adjourn
ment of congress is not an adjourn
men tunless sine die, as is the case
every two years, the bills that the
president held between adjournments
of the regular session of the same
congress would be law.

~~& ~

+, Senator Pat Harrison Of Mississippi
, has a half dozen kilograms
growers and growers associations IL
| his state. demanding full and equal
| privileges with other crops. The Ma
tional Horticultural council has
lodged protest with various senators
at the proposed elimination. asserting
that the fruit and vegetable industries
arc in a bad way.
Numerous growers OF North Caro-
lima have similarly wired senator's
Simmons and Overman and the chair
mar of the Ohio farm bureau has
wired Senator FesS urging defeat OF
the amendment. A dozen citrus-trult
organizations and chambers OF COM
merce in Florida have protested to
Senator Fletcher.
On the other hand the American
Fruit Growers. Inc. has wired SEN
ator Jones from Yakima, Wash. urg-
ing exclusion Of pcrishables on the
; ground that their marketing is a
highly organized and efficiently
lunctioning industry which would be
seriously disturbed If the farm bill
we're applied to it. Senator Glass OF
Virginia has been hearing from apple
growers. asking that their fruits be
excluded from the bill. And the West
Virginia Horticultural association and
several others arc urging Senator
Hatfield to vote for the amendment.
Opinion Badly Divided
Part Of the difference Of opinion
may be explained by the charge Of
the National Horticultural associa
ton that the amendment is "fostered
by dealer and shipper organizations
But opinion among the fruit and veg
etable growers appears to be divided
nevertheless.
All of which does no. affect the

of Agriculture says. has suffered All

There is an annual large surplus in
