wykagyI Makes Oner.

Wykagyl Country Club of New
Rochelle bids fair to be one of the most
popular organizations In the country this
year with the star golfers of both the
amateur and professional ranks. This
links is fairly well known. Before the
season is over not many of the prominent
players will be able to say that they
forget how the course runs, for Wykagyl
has made an offer that just challenges
the expert to remain away this summer.
Finding that no golfer has played around
in the par of ~ since the course was
remodelied, Wykagyl has offered prize
of $500 to any professional or q trophy
equal in value to any amateur who
breaks the par Of the course with the
lowest figure during 1921. In the event
of a record made by one player being
tied BIZ another play-off between the
two will be necessary.
The Wykagyl course has the reputa-
ton of being one of the most difficult in
the United States as may be judged by
the fact that no one has been able even
to equal the par since 1t was heightened
last spring When the metropolitan open
championship was held there in 1909
Alex Smith led with a total for the
seventy-two holes of 306. This stood for
ten years as the highest winning card
for this particular championship and was
not beaten until Hagen, Barnes and
Hoffner tied at 307 at Garden City In
1915.
But even IL Garden City did prove to
be slightly more difficult 1t has TO be
borne in mind that the championship was
held at wykagyl long before the course
was heightened. To-day 1t is easily sew
eral strokes harder. although at the same
time in much better condition.
The Wykagyl offer no doubt will prove
popular with the professionals. who may
be expected to begin their onslaught on
the par of 72 as soon as they return from
the South. As for the amateurs, not
many OF that class will care to pass up
such an opportunity to add $500 trophy
to their collection of spoils.

This was a surprise to the writer's.

High Cost Of HoyInkc.

Participation of Fred j. Wright, Jr.
the Bay State amateur title holder in
the British amateur championship at

Of the failure OF the Massachusetts state
Golf Association to make allowance
toward his expenses. estimated at $4,000.
Evidently Fred Is not quite certain
whether he Is being asked to go abroad

AS II to remind us that there is moth
ing new under the sun, T. j. Johnston
writes from Useppa Island. Florida, TO
say:
with respect to Kirkwood's driving a
ball from a watch crystal without
breaking the crystal, this was done at
North Inch Club. Perth. Scotland. in
1858. by the then professional at that
club. See A. II. Revall's book on golf,
published 1915, page 14o."
Won't dispute the point with Mr..
Revall. Can't say we were taking much
interest In watch crystals and golf
drives in 1868.
J. II. Kirkwood may be finding the
professional golf company much faster
In this country than II was at home.
STILL II has to be admitted Joe has done
remarkably we'll II should please the
folks back in Australia 10 find that
their champion held Walter Hagen even
at Pinehurst. Kirkwood's first tourna-
ment in this country, and. moreover.
played over strange conditions of sand

was five ahead OF Walter. Moreover.
Kirkwood has been well within the

Packing Strike
Now Believed
To Be Averted
Employees Reported Will
ing to Accept Wage Cut;
Big Five Plants to Con-
tinue Mediation System
Davis in Conferences
Working Hours To Be Fixed
on Weekly Maximum,
Based on Eight Hour Day

WASHINGTON, March 22-Prospects
OF peace in the packing industry were
understood to be brighter tonight than
at any time since Secretary Of Labor
Davis, acting at the direction Of Presi-
dent Harding and with the assistance
of Secretaries Hoover and Wallace. be-
gan his efforts at mediation in the dis
pute between the "Big Five" packers
and their union employees.
The principal events of the day in
cluded conference between Secretary
Davis and representatives of the en-
ployees, consideration of the matter at
the regular Tuesday Cabinet meeting
and separate conferences between M
Davis ana the packer representatives
end between the Labor Secretary and
the employees delegates. At the close
cfs the last conference Secretary Davis
announced shat he would continue his
meeting with the employees repre-
sentatives at $3.50 tomorrow morning.
Cut Believed Accepted
AS the matter stood this evening, it
was believed that the employees have
agreed in a general way to the wage
reduction put into effect on March Z
and that, in turn, the packers had
agreed to the extension OF the war
time Altschuler agreement for submis-
sion of differences between them and
their employees to permanent media
ton.
The matter of hours, it was believed,
would be solved by the adoption of a
weekly maximum based on an eight
hour day to meet the peculiar condi-
tions obtaining in the packing indus
try. The question of hours was con-
sidered before the conferences began
to be minor difference, but it is un-
derstood now that the question involves
the consideration of mass of techni-
cal data.
After comforting with the packers
representatives last night and with en-
pioyees' delegates this morning, the
Labor Secretary indicated before he at
tended to-day's Cabinet meeting that
ne hoped for an early settlement, and
SO Informed the Cabinet. Similar op-
tlmlsm was reflected in other quarters
Separate Conferences Held
Returning to the Department of La
Dor from the Cabinet meeting for q
joint meeting which had been arranged
for o'clock and for which both sides
had arrived, Secretary Davis called
Carl Meyer and j. G. Condor for the
packers into his Office for an hours
session. Later he was closeted with
Dennis Lane ard Redmond S. Brennan
representing the employees, and then
announced a continuation OF this con-
terence for tomorrow morning.
Secretaries Hoover and Wallace were
not present at any of to-day's sessions
which was taken as a further indica
ton that none of the basic questions
were involved ina the discussions and
that merely a matter of arranging de.
tails still remained to be worked out.

Court Forbids
Union Strikers
To Picket Cafe
Justice Erlanger Grants In
junction to Pre-Catalan
Proprietors When Acts
of Violence Are Proved
Calls Tactics Shocking
Cites Decisions of Supreme
Tribunal That Upheld
Practice in Orderly Form

Another Supreme Court decision
against picketing by striking union en-
ployees was issued yesterday by Justice
EIlanger in the action of the Pre-
Catalan Restaurant, at ITO West Thir-
ty-ninth Street, against the Interna-
s'enal Federation of Workers in the
Hotel and Restaurant Business.
JusSlce Erlanger granted the restau-
rant proprletors an injunction, saying
ahe evidence submitted to him proved
"a series OF acts of violence and in
timldatlon against the restaurants en-
pioyees and intended patrons so shock
ing mat one Is almost stunned at the
thought that such occurrences are pos
sible in civilized community"
Justice Erlanger said chat while som q
Justices of the Supreme Court have
held picketing to be legal, several states
have declared it illegal, and in Massa-
chusetts and Iowa it has been held not
only unlawful, but nuisance.
FROM the proof submitted" said the
justice, Il find myself unable to agree
with the argument of counsel for the
defendants that the picketing in the
case at bar has been as peaceful and
gentle as he would have me believe"
Assaults by Strikers Charged
Justice Erlanger referred to several
cited instances of assaults committed
by the strikers, and, added: "If to
strike and picket means that EMPLOYERS
must, through violence. Intimidation
and threats of destruction of their
business, yield to the demands which
they, the strikers, through their union,
shall see fit to impose, that is q direct
challenge to existing laws and defies
the basic principle Of freedom of ac-
tlon on which our form of government
rests.
When I said in cited case that
strikes and picketing are lawful |
meant, OF course, those conducted by
lawful means. The fact must not be
lost sight Of that the right to picket,
which is regarded in the eyes of the
Union as a sacred one, was created by
the courts, and solely by them, and it
is that tribunal which must correct
abuses If any arise under the determi-
nations made by them. No court. /
venture to say, ever imagined that
their declarations of the right to picket
ever would be construed to mean that
1t carried with it the right to inaugu-
rate reign Of terror on either a small
or large scale, or, if not that, that
other members of the public, through
sympathy, may sintroduce the rule of
Justice Erlanger said that picketing
without threats and intimidation was a
useless weapon and that it's effective
ness depended upon the terror it ex-
cited. Peaceful picketing, said the JUS
tice, would be futile.
