"NEW ORGANIZATION'
, HAS STAR PLAYERS

New York, Dec. 1. - Golfng circles
in the East were agitated today over
the announcement that the Western
Golf Association had proposed an in
syasion of the East for the purpose of
Wrestling cdntrol OF the game in this
country from the United States Golf
Association 4 bitter war for the su
premacy was freely predicted,
None of the prominent golf officials
in this vicinity would talk for publi-
cation early toddy on the situation.
In regard to individual players, it
seems that practically all the promi-
'nent players will be in the new organ
ization. Chick Evans, amateur cham
pion; Jock Hutchinson. western open
and professional champion; Miss Alexa
Sterling, wOmcn's champion Bobby
Jones, Stewart Maiden and j. Douglas
Edgar. of Atlanta s. Davidson of
Pittsburgh. and Leo Diegel, of Gin
cinaati. are identified with clubs re-
garded as being in favor of the move.
The effect of this detection on the ma
tional Championships Of the older or
ganization may b. imagined.
1t is believed by some that the recent
resignation of George II. Walker, pres
ident Of the United States Golf Asso-
citation, may also have been the result
of this far reaching step.

clubs of the country under the same
set of rules, is proposed in amendments
TO the w. &. As constitution and by
laws submitted by mail to, the directors
today.
The changes, to be voted on at the
annual meeting on January 10. involve
adoption of a new name. the American
Golf Association, which would "act
as the authoritative administrative body
for making and enforcing the rules for
the playing of golf in the United
States.'
There have been rumors of a golf
war between the w. q. A. and the
United States Golf Association, the
controlling body in the East, for sew
eral years, but the outbreak of the war
In Europe prevented an open break.
One of the chief purposes of the new
golf organization, IL approved, would
be to revise these rules, which 1t is said
were originally intended for Scotch and
British courses. and are not practical
for American courses.
Decentralization of control would be
effected by the proposed constitution,
its advocates claim, as the nine direc-
tors and officers would be chosen from
not fewer than seven different states.
Similar action in the case of the board
to allot amateur and open champion
ships would draw these members from
different sections "in proper relative
proportion to the number of golf play
crs contiguous thereto
In making the proposal Croft w.
Higgins, assistant secretary of the w.
G.. A.. said american golfers had been
"muzzled both by tradition and by tire
oligarchical methods Of government. No
other sport could exist under such con I.
dtions, submitting to the dictation of
the few" .....
The memberslipNof the w. g., A..
nearly 800 clubs, should be restricted
to those west Of line through Buffalo,
Pittsburgh and Atlanta, while the T..
S. G. A., embracing about 400 clubs.
included some OF the w. G. A. territory.
One of the chief differences between
the W. G.. A. and the U. S. G.. A. arose
over the stymie controversy several
years ago. when the w. g. A. abolished
the stymie rule. while the L. \. G. a.
retained it. and it was in effect in
oil american championship matches.

eight games played show they are a
better scoring bunch than their oppo-
nents by several city blocks. They have
omassed total of eighty eight field
goals to sixty seven for Reading, and
while they may not run up their usual
big score on the home floor, there is
no reason to suspect that Reading will
hold them down to any great extent.
Almost Doubles Score
Germantown came within a point of
doubling the score Of Philadelphia when
the locals clasbed last night at the
home Of the former. The totals were 20

The forty minutes were punctured
with some remarkable playing by the
entire Germantown club and especially
one. Nat Holman.
The captain Of the G's actually re
fused to shoot on numerous occasions
in the second half when he had a clear
field. He contented himself with making
six field goals and six assists for. an

record for the season.

The Coconino sun., 1920-09-24

A report that Mrs. Hylan was talk ing care of her own home and cook ing her meals ,occasioned considerable flutter among that part of feminity, which spends it's leisure hours retail ing the idiosyncrasies of the Hast cook"
 But it is true, Mrs. Hylan verified it. She handed put some advice as follows:
 Know how to serve yourself and your own family. This is the only safe answer to the servant problem. "I have been without a maid since early in May. The judge (Mayor Hylan) and myself have suffered no discomforts because of our lack of home help. On the contrarty, we are enjoying ourselves, having regular picnic.
 "When we dine at home there is no maid to interrupt the freedom of our chat and confidence by her presence. If we dine out all we do is shut up the house and go on our way.
 "We have a great many problems facing us every day, but the servant problem is not one of them. We wait on ourselves and each other and like it."

THE MYSTERIOUS MILLIONS.

When the senate committee was taking testimony in Chicago several days ago about contributions to dem. ocratic, and republican campaign funds, women stenographers in the employ of certain internal revenue collectors, swore to being asked to contribute some of their salaries to help elect Cox. And they did turn over moneys some delivering $40 and some giving notes payable in install. ments.
 After the committee left Chicago somebody in the internal revenue of flee there found $2,225, ,OOO in the vaults, which could not be accounted for. Nobody knew the money was there and the records did not show from what source it came, according to. the collector. Perhaps this fund belongs, but bad bookkeeping did not show.
 The collector ought to put the office girls on the stand. Of course it is moi probable that $40 contributions could

with its beauties, and to the east the painted desert-most wonderful view 1 ever saw. Wonderland"
 Following the narrow rim we came to place where the ash was thin and it sounded hollow. Clearing away two feet of ash found the lava to be very thin and breaking small hole, I dis covered there was a great hollow how deep, I do not know, perhaps a thousand feet.
 We had no exploring equipment, such as rope, lantern and iron bars, and it was too dangerous to dig any more.
 Here we stood on the rim of a once great volcano, inside for a thousand feet lined with fine ash and outside all the way down covered with ash and lava; underneath a great cavern, yet to be explored. Wonderful.
 The top of the rim is covered with a sulphur product which gives the mountain it's beautiful glow from a distance-hence the name, Sunset. It is a trip worth taking.

SUNSET MOUNTAIN
%%%%%~%%~~%~~% .

In this beautiful country we are impressed with the great and curious furnace which roared many years ago and gave Coconino county it's thous- ands of wonders.
 Nor are these wonders small. There is only one word in the dictionary that begins to express their greatness "Wonderful!'
 Try to describe the Grand Canyon and we stop only to say-wonderful. Some bright day go to the top of San Francisco Peaks and look far into Mexico, California, Nevada, Utah and New Mexico-Wonderful.
 In order to appreciate these great beauties of nature we must see them Wonderful.
 One bright August morning we left Flagstaff, and in an hour had parked our automobile and were travelling on foot across another wonderland-The lava beds.
 The field of lava was once a great molten mass and now in it's midst is shallow cave filled with ice--real ice---Wonderful. As we crossed the lava field we picked some ice from the shallow cave and passed on to the foot of Sunset mountain.
 This mountain was once an active volcano. So great and furious was it's activity that ashes and lava were thrown for miles around.
 The mountain, or the outside shell of this volcano, is covered with sever al feet of fine ash, ranging from dust to an inch in diameter. This hne ash has been swept by the winds until it looks like a great black mound.
 We started our climb and the loose ash would let our feet slip back so that the gain in each step was from noth- ing to few inches.
 However, zig-zagging back and forth, we reached the top in about two hours. Now, we could look down for a thousand feet inside of the old fire pot. The rim of this volcano is only few feet wide and looking down in- side we could trace the cracks in the old fire spouter.
 We had no rope so we did not ven- ture down the inside slope. The diam eter of this pot is more than quar- ter of mile and more than a thous- and feet deep.
 Following the crater rim to it's high est point we rested and took in such a wonderful view-To the south the White mountains, to the west the snow-covered San Francisco Peaks, to the north the great Colorado river,
