I doubt indeed II many good
golfers employ it. Of one
thing you may be certain: there
is no hip action of any kind
which you are to think of as
any sort of hitting agent or
factor in the swing. The hips
do move and rotate, but they
do so as the means your body
employs to accommodate the
swinging eXertion, not as a
means Of aiding the club.
Using the hips in any such
manner not only is likely to
cause sway, but it must prove
worthless as a detail in helping
you stroke the ball. It makes
the body rock and swing. The
body supports the action with
out doing that at all.

mean that the boys will not have
to do any coasting, whatsoever,
nor do they have to break their
hearts in trying to pile up pins
at the start.

gets out in front in the first
five games, those Immediately be-

terrific rush during the final
five. In a five-game test like the
Potomac, the boys just have to

SeaguH Brings Death to Pioneer FLYER

THE two and three thousand mile nonstop
flights which are undertaken by flyers in
these days with little thought given to the
mechanical difficulties which might arise con-
trast strangely with the first really long dis
tance flight in this country a little more than
20 years ago.
History was made when Cal Rogers advertis.
ing beverage known as Vim Fizz, left Mineola
on his epoch flight to the Pacific Coast. The
preparations for his flight were not so simple
as the loading up of the plane with sufficient
gas and oil and the preparation of a little lunch
to sustain the airman during his long fight.
There were no mapped out air routes, no
radio weather reports, no emergency landing
fields, no spare parts to be picked up en- route
at some airport If 1t should prove necessary to
replace some failing piece of equipment and if
something went wrong high up in the air there
was no parachute to let him safely down to
earth.
His plans were far more intricate To answer
the problem Of a route, he chose various rail
lines as his route and he flew a meandersng
route as the trains meandered His landing
fields were indicated to him, not by beacons, but
by the crowds waiting below to see him land
It was usually the circus field which was
chosen. He had no need for advance weather
reports, for his daily flights hardly carried him
from one weather zone into another. The prob
lem Of spare parts was answered by . baggage
car which accompanied him along the rail line
carrying enough parts to build an entire plane.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1932-06-12

When all was set for the start of his historic
flight, he hoped off from Mineola for Middle
town, N. Y, the tremendous distance of 70
miles away. He came through about on sched>
ule and was greeted uproariously by crowd
that marveled at the distance flown in q sim
gle day. Waiting for him in Mddletown was
purse raised among the excited citizens who
felt their city highly honored that it should be
chosen as the starting place of the historic
flight.
Having reached Middletown, Rogers decided
that he had done his quota of flying for that
day. and stayed overnight. The next morning
after several hours Of preparation while the
impatient crowd waited to see its first take-of,
the Vim Fig flyer finally TAXED down the field
and started. insufficient speed however pre-
vented him from attaining the necessary alti-
tude to clean soune trees bordering the field
and In lodging them he struck telephone wire
that nosed his pane over. Fortunately Rogers
escaped with only q few bruises, and the repairs
to his plane were relatively simple and he was
able to leave on the following day.
Two months Of flying finally brought him to
the Coast, where he was received with great en-.
thusiasm. While in San Francisco he gave a
number Of exhibition flights, on one of which he
met his death. A seagull, running afoul the
plane became wedged In one Of the wires of his
rudder and the plane nosed down into the bay,
taking the life Of the man who had survived
what were then considered the almost impos.
sible hazards OF flying clear across the country.

graduation. Not that Mr.. Beckett's interested
in me-it's you he's coming to see"
"1-tell-ya," Aunt Jenny's laugh was sponta-
neous this time, but it was Lucy's color that
heightened at mention Of Mr. Beckett, princi-
pal of the high school and, of late, frequent
visitor at Lukes place.
Jenny gloried in managing She led Mr..
Beckett to speak in such glowing terms of
Lucy's scholarship that Luke was stirred to a
grudging interest in his daughters standing.
And before the teacher left, and in the hearing
of all three, Luke promised Lucy not only a
gown for her graduation but wrist watch as
well, should she keep up her high averages
His complacency was shattered, however, at
the radiance of Jennys face as she held Beck
ett's hand at parting. Even though she did
assign to the blushing Lucy the task of seeing
Mr.. Beckett to the door, Jenny was outspoken
in her admiration of the visitor.

focus on him one of her searching looks. How

Becketts white hair was entirely misleading,
acquired by some freak Of fate at the absurd
age Of 10. Instead, she answered non-com-
mittally:
"Oh, from 16 to 80 hke' as the darby said,
reckon, Luke. I amt asked the man."
- But you've a pretty good notion, I'll bet"
grumbled Luke too absorbed with Jenny's atti-
tude to realize how many minutes passed before
Lucy finally closed the door on the departing
caller But it didn't escape Jenny.
Jenny's black hair was never so glossy, her
plump figure never 50 TRIM her smile never SO

Along toward the last of May, continued rain

enough for Jenny's allowance failed to mate
rialze every seven days
When June came in Jenny took determined
stand. She had just dismounted from Mr..
Beckett's f1ivver, after a shopping excursion one
afternoon, and was waving a gracious good-by
to her escort, when Luke numbered up the stone
steps from his fish house.

awful close to Lucy's graduation. Shed ought

if they's any hope of findin' one that's reason

into Luke's consciousness setting queer little
shivers traversing his spine. But, for the first
time since her coming, Luke was adamant
Recollection of the all but alteration written
large on Beckett's face was not the least of the
goads that started him bucking. That he had
not been able, for the first time since his mar
riage, to add to his savings account these last
weeks was another quip.
The day before graduation Luke ventured q
remark.
Jenny, you amt mean I don't aim you

The spectacle of II men and no

whether or not Pitman really
made a life contract with the

Whatever their decision. either
for or against the woman, she
would not have had strictly

she has not been pleading her

There would have to be women on
such a jury.

secretary of the New York city

"HOw can a woman be tried
