Picking the M. G. A. Date.

A metropolitan golfer Of some prom
inence passes along the tip that the
Metropolitan Golf Association is consid-
ering the selection of the first week Of
June as the date for its annual ANA
teur championship. This happens to be
the date selected last week for the an
nual title meet of the New Jersey State
Golf Association. 80 If the foregoing
should prove to have some basis of fact
it will probably devolve upon the State
to yield to the district organization.
Fortunately there never has been any
hint of strife among the golf organiza-
tions of this section and any threatened
overlap of fixtures always has been
for instance. the New Jersey body, meet
ing first of the local associations, Sc
lected dates that later were wanted by
the NJ. G. A. The New Jerseymen
promptly yielded the point and even
went out Of their way to hold their
tournament in July and therefore at a
time OF tho year which was anything
but ideal from the standpoint of the ma
jority of the players. For that favor
the NJ. @. A. saw to 1t that the New Jer-
sey Association was well served last
year, the latter being allowed to select
the week which 1t considered most suit
able.
IL is now regarded as essential to the
well-being of local golf that tho New
Jersey and Westchester championships
precede the more important event, the
M. G. A. The underlying idea Is that
the Metropolitan winner. should he be-
long to either Of the lesser organizations.
is protected against going into these at
the risk OF having his newly acquired
crown tarnished, as 1t surely would be
by defeat. For this reason It Is quite
obvious that IL the NJ. q. A. does wish
TO hold its tournament during the first
week OF June the New Jersey association
will have to play In May unless II Is
to break the unwritten rule. At that.
the last week of May would be prefer
able to the middle of July. at which
time the golfers usually are scattered
up and down the land from Maine to
Atlantic City or even further afleld.
Courses Not Selected Yet.
Quito possibly this rumor may be on
all fours with the other which had II
that the executive committee of the
NJ. G. A. had selected the courses for its
championship. The executive committee
has held one meeting and the date OF
the next has not been mentioned even
tentatively. As a matter of fact, the
NJ. q. A intends to take it's time abou,
the selection of this for the reason
that few OF the members of the board
know anything about the courses of the
clubs that have made application. For
instance. Oswald Kirkby is probably the
only ono of the group who has played
Knickerbocker. which is strongly favored
by some.
The committee probably viii wait until
the advent of more springlike weather
and then 20 out In body to study
the layout OF the various circuits that
are supposed TO be In the running. That
Is a plan that cannot but be generally
approved.

His Accurate Reminder.

lie was four minute speaker, but, try
as he would, he was unable to memorize
his speech because he was particularly
forgetful of names. To overcome this
difficulty he wrote the names which he in
tended to use in his speech on a little
card which he sewed on the lining of
his inside coat pocket. When he made
his speech he would refer to the card
as the need arose. He first spoke in
glowing terms of the discovery of Amer
lea and of its discoverer, the great nayi-
gator whose name you all know was
referring TO the card) Christopher Column
bus. He then referred TO the first presi-
dent of these United States, who as a
boy threw a dollar across the Potomac
and in later years had the honor of
throwing sovereign across the Atlantic
His name you all know (referring TO the
card) was George Washington. In like
manner he referred TO other great patriots.
Finally came his peroration, a magnifi-
cent climax, Today" he said 'three
great leaders sit at the peace table,
determining the fate of the nations.
1t is needless, ladies and gentlemen to
mention their names. You are all fami-
liar with them. l refer of Course

FAILED TO HAVE
CAR REGISTERED
Wesley NJ. Huntiey Changed Plates from
One Machine to Another-Fined
Sic in Municipal Court.

Wesley M. Huntley, who gave his adj
dress as 121 Elliot street. was fined $40
and costs, amounting to $17.05, in muni-
cipal court this morning for driving
an automobile without plates assigned to
him by the secretary of state. Huntley
formerly owned a Case car which he
traded for a Paige car in Massachusetts
about two weeks ago. He took the Yer
mont plates from the Case car and at
tached them to the Paige car and has
since been driving the latter car without
having it registered. Complaint reached
the secretary of states office and State
Inspector ]. j. Finnessy was sent to in
vestigate the case, with the result that
Huntley appeared in court this morning
Huntley, who seems to be in unfortu-
nate financial circumstances, says he is
a wood chopper working for Albert Iy-
ons of Green River. He said he intended
to register the car this week Saturday
when he was paid, and would have done
1t before only he was short of money
When asked by Judge f. ID. e. Stowe if
he had family, he said he did have a.
wife, but she has left him, over which
Huntley seemed pleased, because, he said.
she cost him good deal and ran him into
the hole.

No other buildings were threatened. but
smoke entered the windows of Hotel

arise hurriedly.
The building was owned by the Bellows
Falls Canal Co. and was consumed with
the exception of 25-foot section on one
end. In the building was located E. C.
Towards store for farm implements and

As indicated by official statements is
sued after the conference adjourned the
duration of a contract and the submis-

the stumbling blocks that could not be
overcome by the negotiators. Representa-

a contract at the old wage rate to extend
to April /, 1924, while the operators
would not agree TO a continuation of the
old scale longer than next April.

Fifteen Cars Included -Four Cars oil
Fresh Air Children Who Regretted
End of Their Vacations.

Four cars of fresh air kiddies helped to
make the southbound White Mountain
express Tuesday the longest train that has
passed through here this summer. There
was total of - Pullman, passenger and
baggage cars drawn by two big locomo-
tives, one a Pacific and the other an At
lantic type. The express was one hour
and 20 minutes late.
The kiddies had been spending two
weeks at White River Junction, Charles
town, Claremont, Fairlee and Ely. All
OF them expressed regret because they
were going home.
One little girl, upon being asked where
she bad spent the last two weeks, said,
AT White River Junk Shop" Another
girl, whose car happened to stop directly
over the spot where the MILESTONE brook
empties into the Connecticut, looked
down into the dark. murky water and
said, What's this place?" When told
it was Brattleboro, she said, pointing to
the debris in the brook, "Well, it must
be a dump"
Another youngster managed to squeeze
her head out through the window and
when asked if she had a good time, she
moti0ned an emphatic yes with her head.
receiving thereby good bump when her
head collided with the window. ''What
did you make me say yes forE she
growlpd as her two hands quickly began
Il violent massaging on the tender spot.
There were many choruses of I'VE
don't want to go home" One little fell
low said he was glad he had FIVE more
hours before he would have to go to his
home in New York's east side.
Another little girl said she had been
in Woodstock, which she was sure she
liked better than she would like Brattle-
boro because there were too many houses
here.
Hey, Mister, what's the timer
queried well besmeared visage peering
ont of the partially opened window.
When told il was ten minutes of two, he
said. Gee, that gives me five or six hours
yet to eat apples.''
All the children said they wanted to
come back next year, and as far as could
be learned. each wants to be a guest of
the same benefactor as this year.

The assassination of Michael Collins
at Bandon, Cork, yesterday comes di
rectly on the heels of the announcement
by the Irish irreguIars of policy of am
bushes and raids in their fight against
the Free State government. Collins was
shot down from ambush only few hours
after he had been given an ovation by the
residents of Cork city which was freed
less than two weeks ago by the military
under Collins command. The place where
he fell is part of the constituency which
he represented in the Dali Eireann.
An Evening News despatch from Dub
lin today says it is believed Collins was
accompanied by seven Free State staff Of
ficers. including Maj Gen. Dalton, when
the Free State chief was killed Several
soldiers, the despatch says, are believed
to have been killed or wounded during
the attack.

view of the assassination of Collins the
Dali Eireann will be summoned imme-
diately, probably meeting on Saturday of
this week
