MEMORIAL CUP FROM LARGE FIELD
Whitemarsh Valley Country Club Player Hits Ire

Miss Maule Skillfully Handles Tournament
BY PETER PUTTER

,,TIE women who played in the first an
L nual competition for the Ida l.. Dixon
,t.morial cup over the course Of the Spring.
haven country club yesterday were very
rueb surprised when at the end of the day
.o,.a single woman had been able to make

aalehtful one There was no wind to bother

sreatly Interested in her game from the
start and has predicted that she will go far

romen players.
had the pie lsure Of playing with Mrs
Turnbull as Il partner not So long ago at
whtemarsh and had the first opportunity
IN see her work with the wood, and / soon
vas earned, Time after time she crashed
out 2OQ-y1rd drives. and some of her brassy
shots were terrific. on the long eleventh
which for most players is a three-shot hole
with wood all the way she hit three tremen-
dons shots, and her third was just over the
green IN that grassy hollow above the hole
O,e Reason Why She Hits Long Ball
Mrs Turnhull is fortunate in that she is
n. shouider-bound as are most women
players and in addition to this she times
her wooden shots perfectly. She hits the
hall hard and this is. where most women
faIl TO put in the force. So many of them
play the drive perfectly until the club head
hIts the ball and just at that time when
they ought to be getting every ounce into
the shot they sacken down. But Mrs.
Turnbull hits her wooden shots with the
race and proficiency Of professional.
And yet a lot of women who have seen
her hit the ball from the tee wonder why
her handicap is as high as it is. The
reason seems TO be that she has not yet
mastered the art of the approach. The
shorter distances bother her greatly and she
Is usually well over the hole or far short
Of IT, Her putting eye is good and her
work ON the greens compares favorably
with most women. SO when she gets the
difficult art of approaching mastered we
win see very fine golfer, for from the
tee she Is not only the longest woman driver
IN Philadelphia, but. there are very few

REGULATIONS OF
 DEALING IN FLOUR
Has Been Made by Milling Division of
 the Food Administration.

New York, Nov. 2.-The milling df- vision of the United States food ad- n1inistration announced here tonight that. effective immediately, all direct trading by American miliers, exporters and blenders of flour with European countries is prohibited. This busi- ness will be handled hereafter only by the food administration.
 The new regulations were mare, it was stated, ito effect proper control and ts> centralize the handling of ex- ports of -four to European neutrals." and in order to protect the interests of consumers who have necessarily had to pay relatively high price for four purchased in very small pack ages
 It also was announced that effective December 1, all flour millers operating under agreement with the federal food administration, will not be permitted to sell flour in packages of other than one eighth. oue-quarter and one-half barrel or larger and from January l, 1918. mo miller will be permitted to ship flour in packages other than these described"
 It is anticipated: statement said. '-Shat the elimination of the small sacks may temporarily distribute es- tablisned grade customs, but it is be- iieved that in districts of congested population, the retailer will meet the situation to some extent by the sale of Hour from bulk packages in the groc- ers' sacks"
 Another reason giveE for the order was to insure such quantities of four moving 10 those countries as may be necessary 10 meet the maximum of de- te-n1ined requirement. All sales and shipments in the future to European neutrals, l. was stated, will be handled exclusively through the food admins tration.
 Sales will be made by the milling division the statement added for account of the food administration grain corporation. through which all business will be handled. The flour will be delivered in plain sacks with Identifying marks, but without any mill brand appearing on packages. Or ders for four from European neutral countries will be apportioned among American millers.'

WAR INDUSTRIES BOARD
 MEET MANUFACTURERS
Discuss Conseription of industries tc
 Supply War Needs.

Washington. Nov. 2-Conscription
 Of industries to supply the needs of
 the army was discussed today by the
 var industries board with automobile
 and accessories manufacturers who
 pledged their full co-opera tion to the
 government in whatever is necessary
 to win the war.
 The plain is to divert a part of each
 rlant to the production of war mate
 r'al. It was made plain to the manu-
 lecturers today that while their help
 is required, the government has no in tention of taking any drastic action
 which would cripple the industry. It was arranged to have the manu- lecturers represented in the National
 Automobile Chamber of Commerce and
 the motor and accessories manufactur-
 CTS appoint a committee to work with
 the automotive productions section of the war industries board in planning
 how tine Gig automobile factories of the country can be of the greatest ser Twice.
 Today's conference is the first of
 many to be held with makers of non essentials as the progress of the war
 makes greater demands on the coun- try's resources. All such Industries pro obaioly will be called upon to fall in lire behind the government in curtail- ing the production of everything not making a direct contribution to the ns tion's fighting efficiency. in con serving coal a1lu raw HtdIPGIdlS ana IT relieving the strain on the trans porta- tion system.
 Business men directing the govern ment'S vast war expenditures have found it advisable to take their work to established factories rather than to create wholly new agencies for making war supplies. In this way. it is said greater efficiency has been obtained and at the same time industrial or ganizations built up by private enter prise have been kept together.
 Curtailment of production of motor vehicles was said to have been taken up first because of the manufacturers voluntary offer of cooperation, be- cause of the highly organized nature of the industry and because of the problem of obtaining raw materials also used in the manufacture of r1uni- tions had become serious for the au- tomobile men.
