BRITISH GOLF
 STAR TO VISIT
 U. 5. THIS YEAR

New York, March 20-Chick Evans as well as Francis Ouinet. may havs the chance this summer to figure in an international golf match of un- usual significance and prominence One of the transatlantic liners from England this summer will have among it's passengers c. B. MacFarlane, 2 leader among British amateurs and particularly well remembered because of his victory over Evans in 1914.
 During the spring just before the war began Evans, in company with such American leaders as Ouinet, Fred Herreshoff, Henry J. Topping. Harold Weber and Jerry Travers, played in the British amateur meet but with somewhat dismal results Weber and Evans advanced the fur thest, being eliminated in the fourth round, and it was this same Mac F7arlane who defeated the great Chick of Edgewater. In that memorable round Mcfarland had a phenomenal ly low 31 for the first nine holes whereas Evans took 37 and was five down to the Britisher at the turn.
 MacFarlane, it is understood, plans an extended vacation in America and will play in the national amateur championship in September at tho Engineers Country Club on Long Isl and No announcement has been made whether he will be accompan- jed by other English amateurs, but it is fairly definitely known that the British champion, J. L. c. Jenkins, will not make the trip. In the case of Ouimet, his claim for the spotlight will be when he clashes with Vardon and Ray again. probably in the na- tional open.
 A1f r0fT TI,O I IJo sistent in reporting periodically that Evans will eventually decide to go across this summer to play in the British amateur event in Muirfield. No other American amateurs are eH- pected to make the trip, and it is un likely tAzt Eyanz vii! take the jour- Eey.

Some of the present day boxers are noted for their stalling tactics, but they could never say that about Terry McGovern.
 McGovern always fought to win and win as quickly as his doughty fists could accomplish their clenched mission. Although he was embroiled in two of them, Terry McGovern never faked a fight. His fighting in stinct simply couldn't permit it. That Joe Cans layed down to McGovern in Chicago is undeniable. But Terry had no part in the fraud, and would have probably won as quickly as he did. even had the Old Master fought his best. The nearest Terry ever came to a frame up'' was with Eddie San try, one of his strongest rivals in the featherWeights ranks. Its an amusing little yarn and is a fine example of Terry McGovern's clear-strain lust for square" fighting.
 Santry, good as he was, never fig lred anything like an even chance with McGovern. Rather than blight Eddie's career entirely matters were arranged so that Terry would allow the Chicagoan to last the six rounds. The "sure thing'' gamblers were ''in' on the deal, of course, and a snug

Terry was against the whole bur lesque from the start. He was no | faker, and it was with great difficulty ] that he managed to keep his soporific swat clear of Santry's chin. McGov- l ern and Santry mixed things brisllly for four rounds. Santry was a re- 1 markedly skiIlful fighter and it seem i ed plausible enough that McGovern 1 was unable to connect for a knockout. At the end of the fourth, santry in | high glee over the prestige he was to acquire by staying the limit with Terry, and with visions of a tidy cash i clean up in mind, became unduly estatic. As the lads broke from a clinch Santry playfully spanked Mo i Govern, f

CARPENTER IS
 ASKED TO VIEW
 BOUT IN BOSTON

Boston, March 20-Georges Car pentire, the European heavyweight champion, who arrives in this country today or Sunday, may see his first boxing match in this country in Bos- ton.
 It will be the big bout at the Fen way A. in Mechanics Building, Fri day evening, March 26, between Young Kloby Corcoran and Frankie Britt Yesterday, Ray Cass, the man ager of Britt. sent wireless to Car pantier on board La Savole inviting the great French boxer on behalf of Britt to sit in his corner during the mill. The message was as follows: Georges Carpentier,
 S. $. La Savoie, French liner:
 Invite you to sit in my corner in Boston, March 26, when I meet Young KIoby for New England wei terweight titIe Boston will give you great welcome.
 FRANKIE BRITT
 In case the Frenchman accepts, ii will be a great opportunity for New England boxing fans to get a close up view of the gallant Carpenter, who with his young bride is on a tour of this country.
 Little is known of Carpentier's plans during his visit here, but he is expected to visit Boston and he may take the opportunity to come to the Hub Although Carpenter probably knows little or nothing of either Klobby or Britt, it will not take him long to find out after his arrival in New York that the bout between this pair for the welterweight title ot New England is apt to be one of the best of the year in the country.

Judge Says He Will Rule

Pleas to End Thursday
Senator Knew $l78. 900 Was
Spent in Campaign, Is
Governments Assertion

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, March 15.-
In the midst of argument for the de-
tense in the Newberry election con-
spiracy trial here to-day, Judge Clar-
ence w. Sessions said he would charge
the jury "that if Senator Truman H
Newberry participated actively in the
things which caused the expenditure of
money" in winning the election, then
he caused it to be expended within the
meaning of the Federal statutes.
The court said that the state statute
is only referred to by the Federal law
"as a measure. Of the amount which
may be expended, or used. or caused
to be expended. or used" and that
"what somebody else may expend has
nothing to do with it,"
"That applies to the candidate, as l
understand it, said Mr.. Nichols.
eyes, that is the reason the amount
is limited to $780," replied Judge
Sessions.
Arguments to End Thursday
Both government and defense argu-
ments were heard to-day. Argument,
it is expected, will be finished Thurs
day.
That Senator Newberry had full
knowledge of the use Of $178,000 or
more in the campaign, that the candi-
dacy originated in New York, with
Newberry and Frederick Cody, and
that Paul Kings fertile brain and
very able hands" carried out the
scheme was the burden of the first
half Of the government argument.

u. S. Altitude Air Record
sDiscredited," Is Report

The worlds altitude record of 36,020
feet, recently made under dramatic cir
cumstances by Major r. w. Schroeder,
United States Air Service, will be only
an army record, according to report
circulated in aviation circles yesterday.
The report had it that the rules
laid down by the Federation Aeronau-
tique lntcrnationale, the European body
that passed on all records prior to the
war, had not been strictly complied
with in Major Schroeder's remarkable
flight, and that it consequently would
not be entered as a worlds record.
These rules concerned the registra-
tion of temperature, which, it is under
stood, the federation has standardized
upon an average basis for every 5000
feet. The federation's rules were
formulated at the time that 10000 feet
was worlds record and the possibil-
ity of reaching 10000 feet was looked
upon as dream.
The possibility of discrediting Major
Schroeder's great fight, so far as it's
aspect as worlds record is concerned,
has caused quite a stir among army
aviators. Many of them already have
protested against such action. Major
Schroeder could not be reached yester-
day, although he is in town on a
months leave.

Farmers Act to Control
Maple Sugar Industry

WATERFOWL, N. Y, March ia
cooperative association Of sugar bush
owners will be organized prior to the
opening Of the next maple syrup and
maple sugar season. That will give
the farmers control Of both the pro-
ducing and selling ends Of the busi-
ness, as result Of a'conference heio
here attended by forty bush owenrs
controlling the biggest bushes Of
Northern New York. The farmers be-
lieve that such an industry will prove
q distinct benefit to them as individ-
uals and to the industry as a whole.
The scheme to organize is in line
with the general tendency among
farmers to form what are called "co-
operative associations" The result of
these movements is seen in the Dairy
mems League and in the Sheep Crow
ers associations which have been
formed in various counties.
At meeting Of the producers were
owners from Jefferson, St. Lawrence
and Lewis counties as we'll as the farm
bureau managers of the three coun-
ties. During the course of the con-
ference it was revealed thnt under the
present marketing system, whereby
producers sell to dealers, there is a
wide variance in the prices received.
In two different sections of one coun-
ty a range Of from 81 to $1.50 was
shown in the prices offered the farmers
for their syrup.
1t was shown cooperative associa-
tion in Cortland County has enabled
the producers there to get bigger prices
for their syrup and sugar.

Woman, II, Uses Police
To Locate Old Friends
Away Ten Years, She Calls at
''Alex Williams's Station"
When Puzzled hy Changes

Though sadly shaken for time, Mrs
Mary Skelly's faith in her memory was
reestablished last night, with the aid
Of the police. Mrs. Shelly is seventy
two years old and for the last ten
years has lived in Pottsville, Pa.
Before that she resided in the vicinity
Of Second Avenue and Thirty sixth
Street.
In those days she had a fast friend
in the neighborhood, Mrs. Peter D.
Monohan. and she decided to come to
New York and visit her old friend. She
arrived last night and with consider
able difficulty found her way to the
once-familiar corner, only to see a
neighborhood much changed and not a
soul about who ever heard of Mrs
Monohan.
"1'll just step around to Alec Will
iams's station house." said Mrs. Skelly
to herself They'll be knowing there"
At the East Thirty-fifth' Street
police station, just west of the street
lamp on which Captain Alexander Will
Jams once hung his gold watch in de-
tiance of thieves, Mrs. Skelly found no
one who remembered Mrs. Monohan,
but an obliging detective found her at
1894 Avenue A, with the aid of di-
rectory, and sent Mrs. Skelly on her
way rejoicing.

Robert Lansing a. Secretary Of State,
Henry Lane Wilson. former Ambassa-
dor to Mexico, declared in an address
before the Agate Club here to-day.
at is an error to eyer suppose that
Mexicans have struggled for liberty =
consistently his foolish policies by
government recognized Carranza, and
for that reason they have been able
to maintain their dignity in Mexico
and command respect from the Mexi-
can government. Mexicans, however,
laugh at the United States. They have
insulted President Wilson, and they
continue to insult him because they
can do SO with impunity. Since 1910
there have been $50 Americans convict
ed and murdered on Mexican soil, and
during that time not single Mexican
even tried, by law. American. capital
has been confiscated to the amount Of
$1,000, 100000.
During the war Mexico was the
center for all German plots against
the United States. Under President
Wilson's very eyes 400 Germans we're
training Mexican troops for assault on
our border. Our representatives down
there have been hissed in the Mexican
Congress. The latest instance Of this
is Ambassador Fletcher's resignation,
saying it was impossible to live down
there and that the United States had
no definite policies to be carried out"
Secretary Lansing tried repeatedly
to change the Presidents policy, Mr..
Wilson added, but failed. "A short
while ago, while Mr.. Fletcher was still!
Ambassador to Mexico, rnere was a
conference between Mr., Lansing and
Mr.. Fletcher" he said. "They intro
duced, as a result Of this conference, a
motion in the Senate to break off re-
lations with Mexico. The attempt failed
by reason of interference from Presi-
dent Wilson. Mr.. Lansing's resigna-
tion was one of despair at trying to
follow consistent policy in Mexico"
