than 400. the indoor swimming sea
sun was ushered in with a splash at
tne Broadway natatorlura last, night
when George Douglas, swimming in
structor, staged the tirst Indoor Ore
Bon state Ked Cross swimming cham
pionships. Swimmers well versed in
the newest methods of Ked Cross res
cue work vied with men and women
divers as the major attraction.
For actual competition the Junior
boys' race. In which there were ten
entries, was easily the best event on
the programme. In this the swim
mers were required to swim 60 yards
to their subject, which was then
towed an additional 60 yards.

4U:2 seconds.
James Egan Victor.

James Egan of the Douglas Aquatic
school, started like a real contest but
ended In a walkaway for Egan. There
were two other entries In the race,
luke Walker also of the Douglas
school and Jack Pobochenko. Multno
mah club. For the first 100 yards the
Multnomah club swimmer gave Egan
n close tace but at the end of the 100
yard sprint, where the contestants
were required to pick up their sub
jects and tow them the rest of the
way, Pobochenko lost out by failing
to touch the tank at the turn. This
cost him several seconds because he
had to swim back and touch.
This gave Egan a big lead, which
be maintained for the rest of the race
and also let Walker slip into second
with pobochenko finishing third. The
time for the 100-yard swim and 75
ard carry was 2:45:3 and was an

there was a splendid exhibition of
high and fancy diving. Jack Leger,
Charles Walpole, Ralph Oallchlo and
Duke Walker performed several diffi
cult dives from the 10-foot board.
Their dives included many that re
quired skiU and nerve, but their exe
cution was carried out without a miss
by the springboard artists.
High dives In which the performers
diKplayed wonderful form were made
from the rafteiB, some 30 feet from
the water, by Lillian Kleihhans, Ame

HOOK, DONE ON PURPOSE; IS
VALUABLE SHOT FOR GOLFER
Jock Hutchison Says All Pros Can Put the Hook Spin on Ball Whenever
They Wish, Though in Pressing for Distance, Sometimes Overdo It.
The. Hook.
il A vO
1LLI STRATIG THE STANCE FOB HOOK SHOT.
BY JOCK HUTCHISON.
British Open and American Professional
Golf Champion.
THE hook shot or the "pull." as
it is sometimes called. Is exactly
the reverse of the slice. The
hook starts Just as if it were going
to finish in the long, rough grass
along the fairway at the right-hand
side, but In reality takes a decided
turn and travels down the course,
gradually pulling to the left.
Just as with the slice, there are
those who hook naturally, or do it
rather through fault than by Intent.
It is mors difficult to hook than to
slice. Just as it is more difficult to
throw an incurve In baseball than
to throw an outcurve. Beginners
usually slice so it is the advanced
pupil that has trouble with the hook."
I have had my share of this myself,
so I know whereof I speak.
The hook has a little more run
to it than the slice as it Is applied
in a different way. The hook car
ries overspin while the slice has more
of a backspin. A golfer with a
natural hook usually turns over the
forearm which tends to produce over
spin. Of the two, I think, the hook
is preferable to the slice, if you can
call a fault preferable. The hook
usually is eiisler to cure, gives you
more distance, and In some Instances
is desirable.
When the hook is intentional It is
very useful. The expert knowing
that such a shot is required can bring
it off to perfection nine times out
of ten. The professional or the star
amateur player Is unlike the duffer,
as he finds it easier to hook than
to slice.
The stars sometimes overdo it. In
pressing for distance a player of the
first caliber will be more inclined to
pull than he will to slice. This is
about all the really long hitter has to
worry about.
How to Hook the Ball. '
A great many pros will hook a ball
without changing their stance. They,
of course, make up for this by the
change of grip and the use of the
forearms.
I prefer to hook by means of the
stance. It would not be noticeable in
my play that 1 changed my stance in
the least. But as a matter of fact it
is changed very materially. I do It
by shifting the position of the ball
rather than my feet. In producing
the hook you must stand more in
front of the ball, while in slicing you
stand behind it. So when desiring
either shot I take my stance In the
regular way but tee off the left heel
for the slice and off the right heel
for a pull. .
If you will study this Idea you will
readily understand my theory. When
the ball is played off the left heel it
Is quite natural to draw, the face of
the club across It, thereby shortening
the follow through. The ball, starts
toward the left, as It is sent In that
direction, but very Bhortly changes its
course of flight and swerves to the
right.
When the ball is played off the right
heel it Is next to Impossible to draw
Bramwell, state superintendent of
banks.
The bank was chartered October 25.
1909, with a capital and surplus of
131.200. Officers are: Frank A. Rowe,
president; H. V. Alley, vice-president;
S. a. Reed and G. K. Wentworth. di
rectors. A report submitted to the state
banking department under date of
September 6 disclosed assets aggre
gating $222,081.69.
Over-extension, with slow, doubtful
and non-liquid loans and the con
tinual decline in deposits, forced the
suspension, Mr. Bramwell said today.
.The banking superintendent said
he would not attempt to estimate
losses untila complete investigation
is made.
Guy S. Hlckok, deputy superin
tendent of banks, now is in charge of
the institution. Plans for reorgani
sation will be submitted as soon as
the assets are determined.
SALARIES ARE INCREASED
OLD SOLDIERS' HOME OFFI
CIALS RECEIVE BOOST.
Added Compensation Authorized
by Act of 121 Legislature.
State Board Acts.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 2fj.-HSpecial.)
The state board of control today in
creased the salaries of officials con
nected with the operation of the old
soldiers' home at Roseburg. The in
crease was authorised by an act of
the 1921 legislature.
The salary of the commandant was
increased from $1000 to $1500 annual
ly, while the compensation of the
matron was advanced from 480 to
$600 a year. The home physicran, un
der the new salary schedule, will re

home adjutant, who now receives $76
a month and a maintenance allow
ance of $50. will be paid $100 a month.
He will receive the same maintenance
allowance as under the present scale.
The salary increases will become ef
fective November 1.
George W. Riddle, newly appointed
commandant of the home, together
with Dr. E. B. Stewart, physician, and
F. W. Poorman. adjutant, were in Sa
lem today. Both Governor Olcott and
Secretary of State Kozer expressed
themselves as dissatisfied vitti the
salaries paid the officials of the sol
diers' home and declared that an ad
justment of compensation was long
past due. .
Scenic Highway Proposed.
KELSO. Wash., Oct. 25. (Special.)
unty Engineer Middlebrooks and
a party of surveyors went up the
Kalama river yesterday to Pigeon
Springs, where the highway ends at
present, to survey a route to the.
headwaters of the Kalama river and
Gobar creek and on to the Toutle
river. Such a route would not only
open up a large area of now Inac
cessible country, but it would pro
vide a scenic loop highway to Spirit
lake, one route being up the Toutle
river and the other up the Kalama
river.
BAtl TED
PEEL
I the club face across the ball, as you
are not in position to go it. 1 ne ciuo
must come to the ball from the "in
side," so it naturally keeps on going
straight in the direction of the rough
to the right. Just as I explained before.
The follow through necessarily will
be longer than is the case with the
slice, because the club has a greater
distance to travel. I hope this is per
fectly plain to the reader, ae it is
something that is hard for beginners
to grasp. I have described my way
of standing to ttie ball for the pull,
but I would not advise my pupils to
adopt an open stance and expect to
get the desired results. One should
take his stance for the pull with the
left foot closer to the line of the
flight than the right. See that the
ball Is well back opposite the right
heel.
Hands and Arms Important.
This Is not all there is to the trick.
The hands and the arms play an im
portant part, too. In slicing the ball,
I told the reader the other day that
the two "Vs" made by the thumb and
first finger In gripping should be on
top of the shaft. It would be impos
sible to see the knuckles on either
hand in this case. But In pulling the
ball the closed palm of the right hand
points to the sky so it is possible to
see the fingers clearly, and the left
hand knuckles can also be seen. The
right hand and wrist also are snapped
In firmly and sooner.
This will bring the club head onto
the ball with a slight turnover, as it
will have the effect of closing the
face of the club at the top of the
swing.
- Hooking and slicing, when done a
an art, are the maater snots oi "
game, if Indeed we can couple then1
together in this sense. There are
times when nothing else will do, and
the player who learns how to accom
plish a hook will find that he has cor
rected a slice without half realizing it.
Courses are made nowadays so that
a long slice or. a long hook is re
quired. The so-called dog-leg holes
call for Just such a shot. It Is quite
necessary on the elbow hole, also.
Joe Kirkwood. the Australian cham
pion, has the art of slicing and hook
ing down to a science. He can. like
most pros, produce a hook or slice at
will, but that has more than one va
riety. He can make the ball break
abruptly or add Just a little suspicion
sf the curve at the end. That Is real
control.
There is a lot of fun in practicing
these shots. Go out on the course and
take a position where a tree might
obstruct, the line of play. Select a
wide place, where it is possible both
to slice and book without going into
the rough. Alternate the shots so
it will not be too, mechanical. When
you learn to play the hook you have
a valuable asset.
If you watch the pros play, don't
let their open stance fool you. Most
leading players bring their right
hands and wrists In powerfully and
take the open stance to correct the
effect on .the ball's flight.

G. MURL CORDEN IS SUED!
wife in DIVORCE COMPLAINT
I SAYS MATE'S STORIES FALSE.
Affluence Expected Upon Marriage
to Notorious Character Proved
Mirage, Is Charge.
G. Mnrl Gorden, whose plans to
circle the globe by airplane brought
him considerable newspaper notoriety,
and whose schemes In manufacturing
lines gained the attention of Portland
financiers for a time, found a girl
with a yearning to star in - the
"movies" an impressionable - subject,
according to the divorce complaint
filed by that young woman in the
circuit court yesterday, in which she
seeks to regain her maiden name,
Valentine.
Mrs. Elsie Gorden, as she appears
In the suit, married G. Murl Gorden
at Stevenson, Wash.. April 28, 1921,
under various misrepresentations, she
avers. She was at that time a stu
dent in the Art Land studio of the
motion-picture dramawith an ambi
tion to become a screen favorite.
Gorden was her instructor and led
her to believe that he owned the en
tire plant, had a film for which he
had refused $45,000 and had strong
financial backing, she complains.
His wooing was impetuous and sue
cessful, she asserts. He told her she
was his first and only love, that he
had never married before and had not
even had "affairs" with women, she
complains. And further. G. Murl in
sisted that it was a real case of "love
at first sight" with him, according to
the complaint.
Among other things, Gorden prom
ised the girl a trip around the world
in his airplane, saying that he was a
noted aviator; promised her a $2500
diamond ring Immediately after their
marriage, and agreed to make her a
film star of the first magnitude, she
asserts. Further, it is said, he rep
resented that he was owner of choice
farm lands in the Imperial valley of
California.
But it was all wrong, ehe com
plains. He was only working for the
film company on a salary; the $2500
ring never materialized; he had been
married three times already and was
grossly in arrears in his alimony to
former wives; he owned no farm
lands; his airplane was lost through
litigation; his automobile melted
away when it was taken back be
cause of non-payment of installments,
and his bank account was tied up by
attachments, she charges.
The affluence In which Mrs. Gorden
expected to fiiid herself was a mirage
and the fine clothes she had planned
to buy dwindled to a ball of yarn
sufficient to knit her a sweater lf
she cared to knit tets forth the com
plaint, i
Her maiden name and alimony ol
o are asaea.
Other divorce suits were: Nora E.
against Floyd A. Streeter, Bessie O.
against James Wilson and Harriet
against Alfred G. Mercer.
FIGHT FDR BONDS BEGUN
drive to Defeat proposed
recall organized.
Portland's 1925 Exposition Also Is
Indorsed a, Meeting of Ore
gon City Live Wires.
OREGON CITY, Or.. Oct. 25.-(Spe-clal.)
An organization to wage an
active campaign to defeat the pro
posed recall of the $1,700,000 road
bond issue, was formulated this aft
ernoon at a meeting following the
weekly luncheon of the Live Wires
of the Commercial club.
The meeting and luncheon were at
tended by more than 25 supervisors
of road districts throughout Clacka
mas county.
A movement has been under way
for Some time, under the sponsorship
of the local Pomona grange, to re
call the unspent portion of the bond
issue. Although the legality of the
recall Is under a oloud, the movement
has had a tendency to hold up action
upon the road programme.
An executive committee to' take
charge of the work, with authority
to appoint representatives in every
road district in the county, was se
lected at tne meeting. It Is composed
of C. W. Kruse, Oswego, chairman; R.
F. Watts. Monitor: M. D. Latourette,
Oregon City; Gordon J. Taylor. Mo
lalla, and H. G. Stephens, Estacada,
secretary.
Resolutions . were adopted at the
meeting condemning the proposed re
call and asking that the grange and
farmers be asked to co-operate in the
movement to continue the programme
outlined by the people when they
voted to spend the money. A resolu
tion also called for the redivision of
the county into districts in order to
make larger tax areas.
A resolution was also passed set
ting forth the benefit to accrue from
the 1925 exposition, and urging the
county to push the road work so that
the main highways would all be com
pleted to care for the influx of mo
torists at that time. .

WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Oct. 25.
(Special.) George Thornton was ac
quitted tonight by a superior court
Jury of manslaughter In connection
with the killing of Guy Monroe, con
vict. The Jury was out from 1 to
5:30 o'clock.
Thornton was the star witnese for
the defense. He told of Monroe's at
tempt at escape the night before the
shooting, and of his punishment by
being stood in a corner of the iard.
Monroe, he said, started toward James
Henderson, a guard, who had placed
a drink of water, near him. and when
Monroe refused to halt on a shouted
order, he, ThorntSn. fired from his
hip, at Monroe's knees. The shot re
sulted in Monroe's death shortly after,
as the bullet went through his groin.
Thornton red a rule of the Institu

tii It case. - It was as follows:
"The rules of the Institution de
mand and the laws of the state Justify
the shooting of a prisoner when in a
state of mutiny, when offering vio
lence to the officers or prisoners or
when attempting to escape. Kxcept
in extreme cases bffenders should be
once distinctly warned."
Thornton stated that when Hender
son entered the yard, he.. Thornton,
was Henderson's only protection from
assault by the man and that as a re
sult of Monroe's threatening actions
he fired. He said Monroe was within
eight feet of Henderson when Thorn
ton fired.
A L. Dilly. a guard at the prison,
told of Monroe's attempted escape and
of being caught in the yard with a
hook pole and a rope In his possession.
This, he stated, was at midnight, sev
eral hours after the convicts had been
locked in their cells. Monroe was then
ordered to stand in the yard. It was-mid-forenoon
when Monroe was killed.
Monroe was in an angry mood after
being caught, guards testified.
