MONTEVIDEO IS
 URTGUAY'S RENO

BuenOs Aires, Jan. 10-The Uru- guayan divorce laws have made the city of Montevidoo the Mecca of the ijl-matchcd couples of the neighbor- ing republic of Argentina.
 k The Buenos Aires newspapers refer to MonteVideo as q matrimonial safety valve" and dryly observe that up-to-date divorce legislation has 'becn rendered unnecessary in Argen- tina by the enterprise of the Uru- guayan law giycrs.
 According to La Razon of Buenos Aires the Montevideans (possibly in a it of repentance for having dis solved so many Argentine unions) are now endeavorins to hold the balance even by making marriage an easy and

GOLF GALLERY
FALLS OFF AS
FEE IS LEVIED
Smallest Crowd to See Big
Journeys in Late Years
Turns Out at Skokie.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-While the first
attempt to charge admission in an
open championship golf tournament
at Skokie brought in more than s16,.
900. it resulted in keeping down the
galleries to one Of the smallest Assem-.
blies that has watched a big tourna.
ment in recent years.
The receipts showed that fewer
than $4,000 persons paid to see the
worlds greatest golfers play during
the five days OF the tourney.
AS compared to this small crowd.
upwards Of 10000 attended the play
IN one day at the national amateur
meet In st. Louis last summer, 81.
tnougn tnere was no transportation
except by motor car.
The largest attendance at Skokic
was 6,O26 on Friday, while on Satur.
day, with a half holiday and the ex.
citing finish in which Gene Sarazen,
Of Pittsburgh. nosed out a victory in
2S8 from Bobby Jones, of Atlanta, and
John Black, Of California, the specta.
tors fell off to $500.
" tue dQT1lS-
stons, there were probably an
average of 500 passes to members
and friends, about 100 newspap per
men and the 329 players and their
caddies. All these scattered about
the clubhouse, press tent, caddy
house and over the expansive links
afforded only comparatively small
groups in the wake Of a few star
matches.
At that. the onlookers were
cheated Of even seeing the winner
play, for he was virtually un-
heralded until after he had finished
with a score that made II probable
he would win If Black and Jones
slipped, which they both did on the
seventy-first hole.
The charging Of admission was
started largely because Of the Ral.
leries at st. Louis, which broke all
records, to keep the crowds to such
proportion that there would not be
confusing scramble for points of
vantage to see the play. In this re.
spect IT had the desired result in
two days. Those who cared enough
about the spectacle to pay a
dollar each day were not only
smaller number, but they were
golfers who understood the game
and its rules. and except for the
few inadvertent outbreaks, did not
annoy the players.
