Golf and Tennis Notes
BY FRANK II. YOUNG.

The professionally bit toward the
American Red Cross fund, as a re-
suit OF last Sundays match over the
Rannockburn course, nettcd about Sl25.
This match proved to be an excep-
tionally interesting one. and all of
those on hand felt that they were
amply repaid for the rather long jaunt
TO Cabin John Bridge. The day was
ideal and some brilliant golf was
shown. McLeod's IS on the sixth hole
on both rounds were easily the out
standing features of the fOursome,
which brought all but one of Wash
ington's paid players together. The
twelfth was also prettily played. Bur-
gess pulled his drive TO the rough and
then halved the hole with Spencer and
Beckett with ,. when he holed a
long one from the far edge Of the
green. Spencer and Beckett were both
On In one, but also had long puts to
make for their thirds. The longest
putt of the day was sunk by Spencer
alter the match had ended when they
we're playing the eighteenth. The
Town and Country Club player was
at the edge of the green, which is one
OF the largest on the course, and
sent his third straight to the hole for
at >. This is a par > hole, S46 yards
long, and proved TO be a very fitting
ending Of the days play.
Tennis enthusiasts had an opportu-
nifty Wednesday, as part of the Co.
umota Country Clubs Independence
Day program. of Witnessing one of
the best doubles matches seen in
washington in years. Conrad B.
Doyle and Henry c. Breck, last years
Middle Atlantic sectional doubles
champions, met Dean Mathey and
Bernard Prentiss in a five-set exhibi-
ton match, which bristIed with ex-
element from beginning to end. The
New forkers are now located at Fort
Myer as members Of the officers re-
serve corps. Both are now right at
the top of their game. and some won
derful tennis was shown. The match
was replete with long, rapid rallies
and gets of seeming impossible balls
we're the rule rather than the excep-
tion- The local pair won, but only
after five gruelling sets.
Richard .Beattie, assistant profess
sional at Chevy Chase. acted as
pro" at Bannockburn on July 4 and
handled things in great shape. Dave
Burgess, the clubs regular profess
sional. who has been seriously i'll for
several weeks. is doing nicely and ex-
pects to be out next week. In the
afternoon Beattie and William Mackie
defeated Basil NJ. Manley and e.
NJ Williamson in an interesting four

the day was on the fourth hole when

MILK
SHOWS LOW COUNT
OF BACTERIA IN TEST

This weeks report Of the medical
laboratory on tested samples of
milk shows that pasteurized sam
pies contain less bacteria per cubic
centimeter than does the raw pro-
duct
The average sample among the
seven that were pasteurized showed
a count Of approximately 5000 bac-
terra 10 the unit while of the four
samples that were raw the average
mounted TO something over $4,000
bacteria
One Of the best samples that has
ever been tested by the department
was that submitted by r. b. Troupe
which contained only 5000 bacteria
per cubic centimeter. There was,
however. visible dirt in the sample
as there was in that submitted by
r. r. Troupe.
At the council committee meeting
last Tuesday the question of pas
teurization came up when sections
of the new milk ordinance permit
ing raw milk having 500. 900 bac-
terra per cubic centimeter TO be
pasteuriZed and then sold if the
count afterwards did not exceed
100000. was discussed. II was held
by some that pasteurization is not
effective and in proof OF their con
tentions they pointed to the results
obtained by the tests Of the medical
laboratory i'm which raw milk often
showed a lower percentage thar did
the pasteurize product.

GET BOY LEADERS

Pair Captured in WOOIWorth
Store Confess and Clear
Up Mysteries.

When the two boys were caught
in the act of robbing the Woolworth
five and ten cent store on Michigan
St, by employees of the company
who were working there Sunday
afternoon, and were taken to the po-
lice station. their confessions forced
by a third degree examination. re-
vealed the outline of an elaborate
thieving association that has been
guilty of a score of robberies in
down town stores during the past
months
The minor bUrglaries of the Ber-
man. Hurwich. Marks and Meyer
hotter stores and many 1thers not
yet definitely established have been
confessed by the members Of the
gang that are now i'm the hands of
the police ready TO be turned over
TO w +. Miller, juvenile officer.
Four members of the gang who
have been Identified are Paul Botka.
Steve Solomon, the two caught in the
Woodwork store Mike Malicki and
Dave SzabO.
Botka and solomon are the two
lads that are involved in the robbery
of the Woolworth store and it is be-
lieved that there was another on the
outside who was not caught. The
two gained entrance by crawling
under the steel protecting door in
back of the store and then worming
their way around a wedged box and
up between the steel door and the
int 4
then into the store. Again wiring
up the transom, the smaller Botka
lad is supposed TO have opened the
door long enough TO let in Solomon
who could scarcely have wormed
his way through the ''rathole" open
ing.
The two were already i'm the store
when the manager and three work
men entered and went on down
stairs 10 work in the stockroom. I'm
daunted they continued their search
through the counters of many won
ders laying aside that which they
wanted
They continued their leisurely
search and then they were heard
walking about on the floor by the
workmen below. First the boys
scampered under the counters and
hid. but realizing that they would
be found, both started at once for
the front door and were caught by
the pursuers just as they threw
themselves against the big double
plate glass doors. Both lads and
men were cut.
