for Country club players. The a.
companying picture portrays the gen
eral view of the sixty-seven acres as 1t
appears from the club house. 1t lies
directly south of the present course
and furnishes a constant study for golf
architects The natural hazards are
all that a Donald Ross could desire
everything is there but a possible
water hole. Tricky greens are avail
able at every turn-if the Country club
officers desire a sporty course. pitch
shots over trees can be arranged at
any convenience. With the thousands
OF dollars that have been spent en- the
present Country club course, the oe-
cfsion to buy additional acreage and
enlarge to eighteen holes instead OF
taking over the Shawnee yard is
source of general satisfaction-not
only to the Dudley players but TO the
Highland Park club. With the pur-
chase of this ground the Shawnee club
will be given an opportunity to buy the
land it now uses Topeka then will
have two permanent golf courses DR..

the victory to local golf. Bracket,

game. won from a man who has been
in the championship class for many
seasons. A performance of this kind

Brackett-Griggs match proves that

CLEARS
MARINE CORPS
Charges Of IndlsCriminate Kill
ings in Haiti Found Unwar-
ranted by Board.

"After careful study based upon
original information and observation
in Haiti the court regards the
charges (made by Brigadier General
Barnett that American marines
were guilty of practically indiscrim-
mate killings of natives) as an i'll
considered, regrettable, and thor
oughly unwarranted reflection on
the United States Marine Corps,
which has performed difficult, dan
gerous, and delicate duty in a man
ner entitled to the highest common
dation."
REPORT MADE PUBLIC.
The report made by the naval
court of inquiry investigating con-
dltions in Haiti has been made
public by Secretary Daniels.
Although the charges made by
General Barnett are denounced by
the board as untrue. no rocommen-
dations TO further discipline hi:n
arc made and it is understood that
the entire matter will be dropped.
After an exhaustive investigation
the court finds that during an oc-
cupation of more than five years
only two unjustifiable homicides and
sixteen other acts of violence were
,'ommitted by marines. All were
'solated cases ana in each instance
the guilty marine was court-mar-
tialed and sentenced.
