IKE SH0TT
ENJOYS the Horror Of Being
First Postmaster to Re-
sign Himself.


WASHINGTON, ID. C.. July 30
While the postmaster at shelbyviIle,
Ill. Is claiming TO be the only posi-
master under this administration
who 's1red" himself from his ONCE.
West Virginia has conspicuous ex-
example Of the same kind. Huge
Ike sohtt, formerly postmaster at
Blueaeld, was the first and only ex-
ample In West Virginia or post
master kicking himself out OF his
job, but he did that very thing. and
did 1t before the shelbyvilie man had
tried the same treatment on himself.
Mr.. shott, being experienced in Tse
ways of politics and politicians and
knowing the hunger for office that
might be expected to come with the
Democrats after being outside the
pale for sixteen years. determined
not to wait to be removed from his
office and promptly sent to the post
master general his resignation. IL
was accepted and his successor IS
now running the Office.
Mr.. Shot Is happy and some OF
the West Virginia postmasters who
are now having their trebules, such
as the one at Parkersburg, who
laughed at Mr.. shott when he re-
signed. are not laughing SO loud as
he is now.

THICAGO, Nov. 25.-British golf
publications are 81 m p Y
crammed with pictures and ac-
counts of George Duncan's victorious
season. One magazine has called
him the man of the year" for, after
q bad start IN the British open, he
has gone from one victory to another,
giving JOY to the heart Of Scotland
and in a measure breaking up the
great triumvirate. II is true that
Duncan's play fell off in the Belgian
championship, for he finished fifth
and lost his title, but he merely eX-
changed it for the French open, whieh
he played in his very best style.
Americans are particularly inter

quarters.
1t has been announced duly that
Atlanta was trying to get Andy for
second baseman next season. There
was a little misunderstanding as TO
whether the hitch, if any, lay with
the Toronto ball club of the East
ern League, or with Andy himself
1t is not believed there is any hitch
but If there is, it is not with the To-
ronto club. The purchase papers went
forward Monday night. and Andy
belongs to the Crackers
Now it is up TO Ambrose.
nF course Andy may get fussy and
~ decline to move South. People
have done that before. In that event,
the sale would be considerably null
and void, under the existing ruling by
the National Commissioner a very
proper one, too.
But there is no intimation at pres
ent that Andy will pull anything like
that Andy knows this is good
