He has a large following here and the great majority he will receive in the pri- mary in Lee county will be most pleasing and gratifying to him.
 A large number of teachers. both white ana eolored, of Lee and adjoining counties. are preparing to stand their examinations for licenses to teach in the public schools of the state. which examinations will be held at Auburn on July IT. Is and 1s. These examinations will be under the direct supervision of Prof. w. T.. Fleming, county superintendent of education for Lee county.
 Opelika and vicinity mas been re- gently blessed with local showers of rain, which has cooled the atmos- phere and given new life to all kinds of crops and vegetation. The cotton crop has improved somewhat since these rains have fallen. but the corn prospects are tho poorest Lee coun- ty has had in several years. Unless large crops of hay are harvested, and unless the corn shows great improve mont in the near future. there will not be enough corn raised in Lee county to run the crops another year, much less furnish the large number of Illegal stills which seem to pros- per and flourish in the county.

A young white man. aged about 25 years, was shot and killed this morn ing about 1.45 o'clock while attempt ing to burglarize the home of J. M. Wright 4424 Seventeenth avenue.
 The man had forced window at the Wright home and had collected g. bundle of clothing and other ar ticles when MT. Wright was awak- ened by noise. Seizing his shotgun he went in the direction of the room and saw the burglar attempted to open door. He fired one shot at the man who jumped from the win dow.
 MT. Wright called the police and Call Officers Smith and Jones re- sponded. With MT. Wright they be- gan a search and found the man in the roadway about 25 yards from the house. He was dead, the load of buckshot having entered his body. Coroner Russum was notified and will hold an inquest today.

 The weeks developments in the money market were quite as expected. Following the holidays there was shrinkage in the volume of federal re- serve net currency, which, along with a gain in reserve. brought recovery in the reserve ratio of the combined federal system.

GENE SARAZENS. BIG VICTORY WAS. A CLEAN CUT ONE.
Youthful Pittsburg Golfer Tri- umphed Over Field of h.
 ternationaI Stars
By Associated Press

Chicago, July 1S.--Gene Sarazen of Pittsburg is the new-crowned king of jgolfdom today. as a result of his victory in the national open cham pionship, and in taking the title from James Barnes of New York the youthful American of Italian de- scent demonstrated that he needed no regent for he lacked only two strokes of equaling the record score for the event 2ss, made by Chick Evans in 1916. Besides. he estab- lished a record for all such journeys by shooting the last IS holes in 6S, or two under par for the 6.553-yard course.
 Bobby Jones. the slightly younger Atlanta amateur, established his claim as heir apparent, along with John Black. 4i-year-old grandfather of Oakland. Cal, by finishing second with 2S9 each, just one stroke behind the winner. Jones, at the age of 20, has now finished runner-up In both the amateur and open champion ships, and all the experts agree that it is only a matter of time until the temperamental southern player will top the field, most of them assert ing victory will come as soon as the young southerner can control his temper when shots go wrong.
 A Represent-sNe A.,.u
 Never before did champion come out of so large or so representative field. There were 329 entrants, and the best 79 of these competed for the title after two hard-fought rounds on course that tested the golf of the best players. These 79 then had to play at top speed for 72 holes through narrow fairways. over treacherous traps and over undulat- ing greens.
 The closeness of the finish proved how grilling the contest was. At the end of the first days two rounds. John Black. with two splendid rounds of II strokes each, led the field with 142 strokes. William Mehlhorn of Shreveport was second with IA, Sarazen and Walter Hagen. British open champion. were tied for third with 145. while Jones was fifth with 146.
 Black slipped a trifie in the first round yesterday but it was any body's game when the last round started. Black got out in 3s, and so did sarazen, who had apparently lost

WASHINGTON MUCH
 CENTRALIZED OVER
 RACE FOR SENATE
tcontinued From Page One)

(COntfnued From Page OneD It is said that the President asked Hoover, a Californian, who has no love for Johnson. to look over the field and advise as to possibilities. 1t is said that Hoover did look and reported to the President that no man could defeat Johnson.
 Moore Presented
 The President has not lent is in- fluence to the candidacy of Moore. The Presidents friends, however, re- siding in California, thought that the popularity of the President, the in- dividual coupled with Johnson's an- tagonistic course, offered an oppor- tunity to retire Johnson. So they groorned and presented Moore.
 Efforts have been made to induce the President to como out publicly and strongly for Moore. It is pre- stunned that the President would be glad were Moore nominated. But as he does not think Moore's i.omina- ton possible, and as he knows that the defeat of Moore, despite the Pres ident's opportunities, would intensity subsequent criticism to be brought against the administration. he has assumed hands off policy.
 Harding vs, Wilson
 Unlike Woodrow Wilson. who did not hesitate to proceed against can didates of his party who were an- tagonizing the administration, War ren G. Harding has contented himself with the statement that between re- publicans he would make no choice.
 In the meantime, the editorial voice of the President, the Washington Post, has declared the President in- tention to suffer the continuance of the struggle without executive in- reference: and it is understood that Senator Medll Mccormick of Illi- nois. charged with the duty Oi con- ducting senatorial campaigns In be- half of the republican party. will in the near future issue statement declaring the fact that the President is not sponsoring the candidacy of the California aspirant who is cham pioning his administration.
 Senator Johnson. in the meanwhile, is smiling in his sleeve. The conoil- iatory attitude of the President will not mollify him in any particular. AS a matter of fact. it is believed that Johnson would welcome the interfer- ence of the President. For he feels certain of his own success irrespec- tive of developments.
 Johnson will not be pro- Harding because the President will not go into California against him. AS a matter of fact. it is the impression in Washington that recent successes of progressive candidates have in- spired Johnson with belief that the time is ripe for him again to espouse the cause of the Bull Moose and aim his shaft at the White House.
 As one of the side shows to the big political tent, the California situa- ton has Washington deeply en- thral1ed.

GOO tons from the low production of recent week nevertheless proved to intensity the drain on existing stocks. Quick settlement of the strike still seems unlikely, both operators and miners showing little disposition to agree to temporary resumption of mining at the old wage scale.
 Crop prospects are practically un- changed. The department of agricul- ture's grain estimate as of July 1 in dtoates a fair yield. The winter wheat crop is placed at 569, 100000 bushels. or is, 900 900 bushels below last years crop, but the spring wheat outlook is enough better to bring the total of both crops up to s17,000,00o bushels.
