UPSET BY YOUTH
Perry Adair Comes Through Vic.
tor in Qualifying Round,
Four Strokes Ahead
by SANDY MeNiBLICK

Pinehurst, N. c.. April 2.-Are we
about to witness once more the sad
spectacle of more favorite taking the
golf high dive? They pulled out the
thunder sheets. and set the storm scene
for that very. thing here today. Sixteen
stars teed off for match play in the
amateur championship Of the North and
South. Four stroke buccaneers have
already beaten out Francis Ouimet for
the qualifying round. What they will
do to him in match play will appear in
later editions.
Perry Adair is the chief youngster
who is throwing the parade of national
stars out of step. He carried the flag
yesterday by virtue Of a caro- Of las
strokes for 80 holes to qualify. That
was four better than the nearest man OF
the 800 men field, the biggest that ever
competed for district championship
here, could do.
Sam Graham, Greenwich, followed ur
70 of the first day with u yester

necticut golfer smooths that out, how.
ever, by admitting he should have hat
at least 90 yesterday. He blew abou
seven puts. ..

:, Sam Graham paired off against Jimmy
Standish today In one Of the star
matches. Right back Of them were
Adair and Newton. Most OF the gallery
picked up this match. Lou Hamilton
played Weber. Ouimet went off this
morning against II. II. Scofield. He
and 10. II. Augustus should meet in the
semihnals as the strongest players In
the lower bracket, though Weber may
have good chance. Adair, Standish,
Graham and others are all in the upper
half.

Narrowing details of the

by correspondents of the Journel DIES
Debats and Populaire. Victims OF re-

been beaten until blood was drawn,

der in Budapest, when arrested ana
arralgned before military court, was
flogged between questions during his
examination. A student was beaten I'M
til his head was covered with blood
because he had been a member of the
peoples commissary. Joseph Karany
was imprisoned, charged with the MUIR
der of a certain Louis Feines, who is
walking about the streets of Budapest.
The prisons of the city of Budapest
are filled to overlooking and it has
been found necessary to transport part
! of the victims of the white terror" to
Vacov. More than 1000 persons are
now in prison, it is reported, while
| charges have been filed against $500
more. AS a result of the crowded con-
dition of the jails and the insufficient
and UNBEATABLE food, epidemics are rag
ing. Many of the prisoners, it is re-
ported, are suffering from scurvy.
The prison guards, according to
these correspondents, are brutal in
their treatment of the prisoners, hav-
ing full authority in this respect. One
case cited is that of Eugene Fazler,
who was taken from his cell and
flogged until the other prisoners, mad
dened by his agonizing cries, tried to
break the doors down in order to go
to his rescue.

LABOR PROBLEM REPORT MADE
Industrial Conference Decides Prob
lem is in Individual Plant.


Washington.-The proper place to
grapple with the labor problem is in
the individual plant, the second in
dustrial conference will tell President
Wilson in its final report. The con-
ference adjourned March 6, after hav-
ing held eighty sessions since it's first
meeting, December 1. The report will
be made public within the next ten
days.
Recommendations about wages and
hours of work., and women in employ
ment and similar problems, have been
made, the conference announced. and
definite stand on collective bar
gaining, the rock on which the first
conference came to grief, has been
taken.
The final report, the conference an
nounced, makes some notifications of
the organization for adjusting dis
putes suggested in its preliminary
statement December 10, but leaves in
tact the national industrial board and
the regional boards of inquiry and ad-
juStment. The final report also deals
"hroadly with the general field of in.
dustrial relations" and undertakes to
prevent industrial disputes by recon,
mending elimination of the causes of
disagreement. Plans for shop organi-
cations to facilitate voluntary adjust
mentS between capital and labor are
suggested.
