off in the open championship.
All OF the players entered will play
a round on Tuesday and another
round on Wednesday The seventy
two players making the best scores in
.thirty-six holes will be selected to
play the thirty-six holes on Friday
and the same number on Saturday.
There ~ considerable speculation as
to the qualifying card. Estimation Is
made that eighties will get in the
first seventy-two to play for the title.
AT Toledo 1877 was the high score
for thirty-siS holes which got in"
II is predicted that $50 will squeeze
In at Columbia. Vardon turned in a
card OF 6s on his visit here last sum
mer. At Toledo last summer Hutchi-
son got 141 for the winning, qualify
ing score.
The shawnee-on- Delaware tourna-
ment to be played July IA and is will
serve as an admirable warm-up event
for the professionals who will com
pete here in the Columbia open cham
pionship event beginning July 10.
Conditions call for seventy-two
holes of play, thirty-six~ each day.
The Shawnee tournament will be the
only one aside from the Columbia af-
fair In which Abe Mitchell and George
Duncan, the British pros, will COM
pete. Mitchell and Duncan are being
booked for any number OF engage
ments. as were Ray and Vardon last
year.
Duncan and Mitchell are expected
to arrive in this country tomorrow
and will be around the Philadelphia
golf clubs before going to Shawnee.
Ii Is expected that practically all OF
the pros in the East will go to Shaw
nee.

Prizes offered at Shawnee will be
distinctly worth while. The golfer
who finishes in first place will car
ry home the bacon" to the amount of
$3.50 and will also have his name en-
graved on the trophy known as the
shawnee Shield. The second prize
will be 1925, third $3.50, fourth $50.
NTH $50, sixth $50 and seventh SIS.

will receive a suitable gold medal.
George s. Lyon, the father of
Canadian golf" who recently came
here to compete in the annual Chevy
Chase tournament, Is still playing
great golf despite hiA advancing
years. Lyon is in the front rank of
Canadian golfers.
AS far back as 1898 Lyon started
winning the Canadian golf champion
ship. He has captured the event eight
times. Last year he lost the Toronto
district championship to w. J.
Thompson, who. won the qualifying
round a year ago at Chevy Chase and
whose brother annexed the same hon
or recently.
G. s. Lyon won the Toronto cham
pionship recently from a field which
included both Frank and w. J.
Thompson and Seymour Lyon. son of
the veteran. There were $50 entrants
and the veteran had scores OF rs AMI
20. He drives a prodigious ball for
all his years and peculiarly placed

AVERAGE COST OF LIVING
Industrial Court Has Investigated
Working Wage For Women

The average cost Of living Of wage
earning women in Kansas Is 1898 a
week, based on II suggested budget,
the Kansas court of industrial rela-
lions announced today through Judge
James A. McDermott.
These figures are contained In re-
port Of the survey conducted In thir-
ty-nine Kansas cities last summer by
the wOmen's division of the court
under the direction of Miss Lima
Bresette, in an attempt to determine
the amount that is adequate to meet
the cost of essentials Of living, con
sonant with the health and welfare
of the individual worker"
The industrial court plans to review
and revise where necessary all mini
mum wage orders made by the old
Industrial Welfare Commission, now
under the court. The
findings In the survey will be supple
by data gathered from inves-
legations and public hearings which
will be held In the near future by the
court.
In making up their "model budget"
the courts investigators decided that
the essentials of living include re-
spectacle lodging, three meals a day,
clothing, some provisions for
sickness, dentist and oculist
amusement, self-improve-
ment, carfare and incidentals.
Considerable variation was found In
the different cities as to the cost Of
living. On the basis Of the suggest
ed budget the highest was in Hays,
$19.39, and the lowest at Newton,
1892. The merchants estimates
varied from $20.88 in Coffeyville,
which was $1.97 higher than the In
estimate, to sees In In
which was 1911 below
the Investigators estimate. In eight
cities merchants made lower esti-
mates and in four cities higher esti-
mates than the investigators. The
club women and business women, on
the other hand, estimated the cost of
living lower than the court invesd-
gators In two cities and higher in FIVE
cities.
The cost Of, living for Abilene Is
iound by the Investigators, based on
he suggested budget, Is $3.50.

WEEDS PARoLED PRISONER
Miss coddlng's Husband Is Now Back
In the Pcniteniary

In the Pcateudary
Lansing, Nov. Elmer Inman
was back In the Kansas state peni-
Tertiary last night because he broke
his parole by secretly marrying his
warden's daughter and for the alleged
theft Of a motor car.
Imam and Miss Lavona C0dding,
daughter of former Warden j. X.
Coddlng Of the state penitentiary,
were married at Bartlesville six weeks
ago, according I'd advices here. In
man was o. parole. Following the
wedding, a motor car which Inman
drove from Oklahoma into Kansas
was identified as one stolen. He was
indicted by a grand jury and held
under $4,000 bond.
Mrs. Inman before her marriage to
the convict, who acted as the COdding
chauffeur at the prison, was active In
welfare and war work. She has gone
to Topeka to plead with Governor
Allen for release Of her husband, 1t
was said last night.
Inman was originally arrested for
Implication in an Arkansas City dia-
mond theft and officials said they
believed he disposed Of part Of the
loot while trust yhere. He was re-
turned from Tulsa, Okla.
Topeka, Nov. Mrs. Elmer In
man was here Saturday and pleaded
with Judge G. w. Smith, parole
clerk in the governors office, for a
parole for her husband. She did not
see Governor Allen. Judge Smith
told her that 1t would be useless to do
so at this time.
1t is a close legal question whether
the marriage Of the COdding girl to
Inman Is valid. When Inman was
sentenced to prison for robbery his
civil rights were all taken from him.
Although out on parole those rights
had not been restored. He could not
legally marry in Kansas. But the
ceremony was performed In Oklaho-
ma. The courts have not passed on
