All the sixty children who are to be

New York, March 25.-Tnere will
be no foreign invasion by an inter-
collegiate golf association team dur.
ing the coming season. This has
been reluctantly admitted by the col
legians, but only after weeks of per-
sistent efforts. The real hazard in
the way is the failure of four of the
golfers to secure the necessary pa
ternal consent. They are IL. -. Will

NINE. GOULDMAY WE'D
Believed to Have Promised Hand
to Prince HeIie de Sagan.
HER FAMILY WILL NOT TALK

Ensasement-No Conference on Mat
ter--NobIeman In Philadelphia Ho.
tel Under an Assumed Name. :.
New York, March 25.-Mme. Anna
Gould, who lost the title Of countess
by divorcing Count Boni de Castel-
lane, will, 1t is believed, shortly be-
come a princess by marrying Prince
Helie de Sagan, the cousin Of her for
mer husband.
That the American heiress had final
ly and definitely decided on this step
was learned from close friend Of
Nine. Gould. There only remain to be
settled the time and place Of marriage
and the details of the marriage settle
ment.
Nine. Gould hopes to win the con-
sent of her brothers and sister, but
that is matter Of secondary cOnsid-
Grafton. Her love for the dashing
Frenchman, who followed her to Amer
lea to continue his ardent wooing, now
otduuS DcIOIS luluS clSC.
The discovery that the Prince de
Sagan had slipped into New York by
way Of Halifax and Montreal necessi-
tated a sudden change of plan. George
J. Gould and other members Of the
family were not to know that he was
here until Nine Gould had more time
to sing his praises.
This was the reason for the secret
dinner at the apartment of Mr.. and
Mrs. Tyler Morse at the Wyoming, in
which the prince and his iancee took
part.
Hoping to cover his identity, Prince
de Sagan struck out for Philadelphia,
and there he remained cooped up in a
suit at the Bellevue-Stratford. His
only anxiety was over mail and tele-
grams from New York, and he awaited
directions from Nine. Gould or his
friends, the Tyler Morses, for his next
move. He is using an assumed name.
Mrs. George J. Gould left for Hot
Springs, Va, after having entertained
Nine. Gould at luncheon in the Gould
apartment at the Plaza. Mrs. Gould
was accompanied by her maid and a
nanservant.
81 cannot speak for the Gould fami-
w." she said when asked about the
Prince de Sagan as she was leaving
the hotel
George Gould accompanied her to the
private car in which she will travel
south. He was prevented from going
with her by business and family mat
ters. He would neither deny nor af-
firm that the Prince de Sagan was in
this country and had nothing to say
about his sisters affairs.
Emphatic denials were made by
members of the Gould family that a
conference had been held at which the
suit of the Prince de Sagan for the
hand of Nine. Gould was discussed.
George ]. Gould's secretary said that
Mr.. Gould had not participated in such
q conference.
The friends Of the Gould family in
society are all certain that the French
man discovered at the Prince George
hotel under the name of wv. III. Thom-
som" is really the Prince de Sagan.
