Open Golf School
for British Near
Heart of London

London, Nov. 3-Just off the busy
shopping center of Kensington in the
spacious grounds of the Holland
house, retired Admirals and Generals
government officials, American visit
ors, actresses, clergymen and just or
dinary citizens meet on common
ground. The place is an up-to-date
schcool of golf.
A company, recently formed, has
acquired the property and made it
into an "all weather" practice course
with greens, bunkers, and series of
nets which measure the length of the
drive. Cumberland turf has been
provided for perfect putting lawn
and four professionals are kept busy
all the time with their variegated as
sortment of pupils.
The golf school has proved a pop
ular institution and there is steady
stream of pupils from dawn until
sundown. 1t is even planned to in
stall high powered electric lights in
order to allow the city men to play
after dark, More than 2400 golf
balls are used daily, and so great is
the demand for the use of the grounds
that the instructors time is booked
for many days in advance. Further
extensions of the schools facilities
are contemplated

PROFESSIONALISM
Wisconsin and Illinois
Exchange Courtesies
Over Conference
iBy Associated Pressl

Chicago, Nov. 3.-With athletic
relations between the Universities of
Wisconsin and Illinois strained as a
result of yesterdays cryptic ex-
changes of charges of professional
ism against football players of both
schools and the Punishment from big
ten athletics of a player from each
team, the western conference was
agog today over it's newest football
scandal.
Wisconsin authorities contended
that the action of the conference
eligibility board in barring J. A. B.
Murray, badger tackle, was unjusti-
fled because Murray was not regis
tered as a student and was not at
tending any school when he played in
a professional game at Taylorville
last year. This game caused such a
sensation last winter when nine Illi-
nois players and several Notre Dame
men were barred on charges of pro-
fessionalism as a result of disclo-
sures made by college authorities in
their investigation.
"He has produced evidence that he
received no money for playing and
Wisconsin insists that he is still elig-
ible," says the Wisconsin statement.

c COAST LINE WILL
DOUBLE FREIGHT
FAC|L|U|ES HERE
Another Switch Engine
to Be Added to Trac-
ton Equipment
TO INCREASE SIDING
New Spur Tracks to- Be
Rum Into Manufac-
turing District

! To properly handle the greatly in
creasing volume of business in Palat-
ka the Atlantic Coast Line will dou-
BILE its facilities for handling freight
trains and the rapidly increasing vol
ume of traffic. A new switch engine
will be put in operation Immediately
and work has already started length
ening some of the sidings, and in a
short time new spur track will be
cut into the manufacturing district,
where are located the Wilson Cypress
company, the Selden Cypress Door
company, and the Florida Wooden
ware company.
Trainmaster L. N. Hansell, of this
division of the Coast Line, is here
today to install the new switch en-
gine and arrange the tour of duty.
The order for the increase in facili-
ties was issued by Division Superin-
tendent T. L. Dumas.
The new switch engine will make
two tours of duty, one being from 8
a. m. to 4 p. m. and one from 1920
P. m. to 6 a. m. This service, it is be-
lieved, will relieve the congestion
here and will prevent delays which
have been much complained of lately.
The yards here have been so congest-
ed that the freight trains have been
delayed in getting in and out, some
times it being necessary to do the
switching at times with the regular
freight train locomotive after it ar
rived here.
The sidings to be put in comprise
an extension of several hundred
yards of the siding along the west
side of the main line, beginning at a
point north of Carr street and ex-
tending to the curve south. Then on
the east side of the main line one of
the present sidings will be extended
to the manufacturing district men
toned above, giving a direct service
to these places without interference
from the many regular trains that
come into Palatka.
New Crossings Also.
Local Agent Thigpen announced
today that the material for putting
new asphalt crossings in the city
where the tracks of the road cross
streets is also here, the work having
been delayed by the recent heavy
rains. Work is expected to begin on
these next week.

London, Nov. "A report that
