SALT LAKE GOLFER WINS CHAMPIONSHIP
 1T DENVER TOURNEY
tRepubIican A. P. Leased wlrel

DENVER, Colo. Aug. 13.-George | von Elm. 20-year-old Salt Lake City, l Utah, golfer. completed his phenom- ena1 rise from caddy to Trans Mississippi champion this afternoon on the 30th green of the Denver Country club course, where he won the championship by defeating Dr. L. D. Bromfield of Denver, Colorado state champion, 8 and 6.
 Five years ago the new Trans Mississippi champion was a caddy on the links of the Salt Lake City Coun- try club. His employer was w. J. Halloran, president of the club. When the youthful von Elm began to show promise of becoming a golfer, Halloran took him in charge. He sent the lad through high school and that year, 1916, von Elm won the Utah state championship at the age of IS years. He repeated in 1917 and in 1920. In June, 1921, von Elm won the Northwest Pacific championship at Portland, Ore.
 The title annexed by the Utah player today gives him a claim to the honor of being the premier golfer of the Far West. He plans to play in the national amateur champion I ship at St. Louis. The champion
 played wonderful golf up to the 18th hole, when he had the title in his
 grasp. Then he gave way to slight
 nervousness, missing a three-foot putt for a half that would have given
 him the match, as he was dormie
 nine. He missed another putt for
 a birdie three on the 29th hole and Bromfield won it with a birdie.
 But he steadied after losing these
 two holes, shooting a par five on
 the next for the match.
 With the exception of few missed butts, von Elm played almost
 perfect golf throughout the 30 holes
 He took six on but two holes, one
 8 par four and the other par five
 He had four birdies and for the 90
 holes was but five strokes over par
 Bromfield was 15 strokes over par.
 Only one of von Films drives was
 off the line with the pin. He sliced
 one approach, otherwise his game | was unbeatable. He lost only three
 of the 12 holes of the afternoon round
 Two were haled.
 Il von Elm out drove Bromfield l throughout the morning IS. The Coloradoan had a little better of tho approaches but von Elm's putting more than offset this advantage Bromfield was in trouble severa | times, taking a seven on the 12th hol, , into the bunkers.

SCOUTS FOR FORESTRY.

Boy scouts of Comanche county.
Oklahoma. are going In extensively
for forestry work. At the suggestion
Of the forest supervisor OF the wach-
ita national forest. Frank Rush, the
local chamber of commerce Of Law
ton, gave a free nursery site and pro-
vided enough money TO stock il with
seed. Boy scouts did the planting un-
der the supervision Of Mr.. Rush. and
have several thousand seedlings which
are TO be distributed free among the
boys and girls of the county. Several
hundred trees will be planted this
spring In Oklahoma City, Atlus, Okla,
and Wichita Falls. Texas, from seed
lings supplied by the Lawton scouts.
Supervisor Rush is very enthusiastic
about the plan and believes that the
boy scouts can be a great factor in
starting a movement for fOresting the
barren plains of the southwest.

SCOUTS, OFFICIAL FIREMEN

In StamfOTd, Conn, boy scouts are
drilled to assist the police in bolding
back crowds at fires. They also make
inspections of the schools and report
to the fire department the condition
of fire escapes. ire extinguishers, fire
doors, hose anG alarms, and how long
it takes to get the children out of the
school building in fire drills. They ac-
lively assist in fighting forest fires un-
der the direction Of the fire depart
ments. After having attained second
class rank, a Stamford boy scout
may take an examination, which, il
satisfactorily met, entities him TO re-
ceive certificate signed by the chief
of the fire department, the fire marshal
and the scout executive. This GER
tifieate makes him formally a member
of the fire department, which may call
upon him fer service in time Of emer-
gency.
All Blackstone Valley. r. L, is also
to have boy scouts as regular fire de
partment aids. Scouts are to be In
structed in fire fighting and preven-
ton, and will be so mobiIized as to
be ready for action at given signal
when their assistance is required.
From the other side of the map, too,
comes the report that in COrdova,
Alaska, a boy scout troop is to coop
crate with the local fire department
and will use fire station for meet
ing place and gymnasium.
