Whatever Germans Must Pay, It's Too
 Much, Says Writer

Berlin, June 5.-Whatever may be the size of the indemnity to be de- manded from Germany by the Enten- te, the newspaper Germania says Ger many cannot pay it.
 Taxation, it adds has already reach ed it's utmost bearable limits and fur ther burdens would be tantamount to confiscation.
 The paper asserted there was dan ger that German delegates to the conference at Spa would be forced to sign undertakings which they knew could not be carried out

Women Voters to Become Power for
 Good in Nation

New York, June 5-The millions of American women who expect their political status to be changed by fed eral amendment to citizenship next November are going to become pow CT for good in the nation according to Mrs. John Sherwin Crosby, delegate to the democratic national convention in San Francisco next June A wo- i man president of the United States, gre says, is "remote but not impos- sible. say, in 1944."
 "The only two things worth while at present" said Mrs. Crosby, "are politics and religion. We all should study both; how to improve our gov ernment and make better men and women. When I speak of religion l don't mean any particular creed but the religion of the Gospels, the Ten Commandments and the sermon on the mount. The world is money mad. Religion alone will free it from its selfishness and unrest"
 Mrs. Crosby, who has been called "the mother of New York women dem- ocrats," white haired, dignified ma- tron of more than three score years she is the widow of judge-declared | the 300 or more women delegates would go to the convention with the determination to nominate a strong man and put through a constructive program.
 "It will be the greatest convention ever held," she said. "because women for the first time will have voice in it. I expect to see bitter fight, par ticularly over the question of major ity or unit rule. I can, of course, only speak for myself and what the women may do when they enter the convention will depend largely upon the action they take in the prelimi- nary caucuses." I believe an effort will be made to put plank in the platform calling for modification of the Volstead Enforcement act and nermitting the manufacture and sale of light wines and beer. I believe however, that everyone should be obe. dient to law. I oppose anarchy and socialism.
 "All American women," she contin' ned. "are sufferers from the profit eers We must fight them and 1 an | sure we have ingenuity enough to de wise a way to defeat them and. 1T | other ways, to bring down the cost o1 llVl0P. lucQuiCdUIc tcNooiO.' N

invariable beauty and ease Of swing,
the ball travelling straight and true,
though short.
In the same easy style, always play
ing his own game, Vardon would take
an iron and would get there just the
same.
If, due to the longer approach he had
to make to the finely opened green's, he
landed over short, or in trap, Vardon
was sure to chip out so we'll that he
nearly always had a reasonable putt for
| par.
| That's a game always hard to beat,
even IL you're driving them a mile.
Vardon's as calm and sweet q sticks
man as you'll find and it's ridiculous to
say he's slipping. Indeed, considering
his length of service and the handicap
of his years, IT wouldn't be far off to
claim that the Eardon Of today Is
greater than ever, though he may be
out of the youthful championship class.
That Fourth
1t would be impossible to see a hole
better played than the fourth in the
afternoon. That was the prettiest
mashie and putting treat we expect to
have.
It's n short hole, pitch to banked
green. One after the other each Of the
four experts stood up there on the tee.
There was the shining arc Of mashie,
the ring Of the ball struck, flying
divot and the graceful white rise of the
! ball winging its way in perfect line to
the flag.
Bing! Down it dropped with heavy
spin, one tiny bounce, and lay still.
Each ball lay from four to fifteen feet
from the pin.
Hagen sank his first for bird two,
after Ray had hit the back of the cup
but stayed out. 1t was up to Vardon
and he ran sidehill into the cup, firmly
and neatly from eight feet, for bird
half. Barnes scored the third two
when he sank his putt also.
The gallery gasped and then burst
into exhultant cheering. 1t was get

Pair of Champions and Great Field of Experts Promised

BY SANDY McNIBLICK

A LII of the amateur golf calcium
rays this week will be turned on
the beautiful mountain stretches Of the
Shawnee course.
1t looks as though there would be q
general emigration there from the
Philadelphia district among the star
players, and several of the best repre-
sentatives Of at least New York and
Boston will also be present.
d. Z. Sawyer. metropolitan cham
plon. has promised to mix his brilliancy
in the play. and Frank NJ. Dyer is also
| expected. He was once Pennsylvania
state champion, and played from the
University Of Pennsylvania.
L. p. Adams, Norman Maxwell, J.
W. Platt. George Hoffner. r.. c.
Clarey, Herbert B. Newton, Robert
Mischler and many other expert locals
will endeavor to head off the metropoli
| tans. and +. G. Newton, medallist OF
the Massachusetts tilt, is expected.
W. II. Gardner. the Buffalonian, who
startled the galleries at the Lynnewood
Hall tourney, will be in the going which
starts Thursday. and one OF the finest
| fields in its history is expected for the
tourney.
The prizes are particularly fine this
| year. The roads are in good condition
provided the right ones are taken, and
many locals are planning to take the
trip by motor.
Vardon Skidding
Golf fans who look at the scores
every day turned in after the exhibition
matches which Harry Nardon and Ted
Ray, eX-British champions. are play
| ing these days against various American
pairs. have doubtless remarked that
Ray is bearing the brunt of the work
for his side.
Vardon, at fifty years Of age. Ia nc
longer the Vardon who won six British
championships, and was hailed for years
as the greatest golfer the world evel
| produced, the fans say.
This may be true but experts whC
saw Vardon in action Sunday against
Hagen and Barnes at Hollywood hav,
a different opinion.
The Nardon Of today is not. in {
sense, the Nardon of old, inasmuch a
he lacks the physical prowess, in ad
vancing years, Of his game in its prime
which affects. doubtless. both his con
fdence and his touch. But outside of ,
putting slump right now, that's sa fa
as the story goes.
The same shot perfection Is there, tn

Holloywood- -Vardon did not once in tn
morning round have the longest ball OF

jority of golfers to fail every time t

Treatment OF Champions
A DAY or two ago we ran into an
= English sportsman in an extremely
puzzled frame of mind.
why is It," he asked, "that Eng :
land and America treat their champions
in such different fashion, Over there
we hate to see our champions beaten.
We pull for them as a nation to hold on
eternally IL they can do so and are very
much upset when some outsider finally
takes away their crown. But over here,
1t seems to me, the average citizen is
anxious to see the champion over
thrown. He appears to want him
beaten--to welcome the variety OF
change. We can't understand this feel
ing at ALL"
This diagnosis is partly correct. Yet
twenty eight years ago America went
Sullivan was overthrown. No one, ex
cept Corbett and few Of his friends,
wanted to see John l.. beaten. Neither
Johnson nor Willard was a popular
champion and their defeat was gener-
ally cheered. Dempsey could hardly be
classed as a popular type, and while he
will have thousands of supporters. there
will be countless other thousands who
will refrain from weeping IL he is ever
hammered into the resin.
Types Of Champions
THE answer seems to be that some
i types are popular with the crowd
and others are not.
There was nation wide disappoint-
ment when Mclaughlin. the Comet, was
hammered from the top, because Nc
Loughlin had a personality and record
which caught the fancy of the populace
to a big degree.
There are probably no crowds as
tickle as the fans in baseball. We have
heard Pittsburgh gatherings pan Hans
Wagner to a finish and we have heard
New York crowds yell "Take him out"
when Mathewson was slipping.
There are many occasions, when the
multitude doesn't care FOR champion
and there are other times when the
same multitude begins to yearn for a
change Of championship scenery upon
the theory that variety is the spice OF
life" But in the main, the champion
over here who plays the game squarely,
who Is known rs q good, game fighter
and who has touch of magnetism, can
generally bank upon the crowds sup
Not counting that element of human
ity. which isn't small, that in sheer
envy yearns deeply to see any head
raped which lifts itself above medioc-
rity.
TN 1900, at Chicago, Harry Vardon

ers, walked twice, and another time
he hit an infield fly so high that he
