And crowds are here to see il Jones
can produce his shots: II he can
make the ball roll for him under
severe match play pressure. Some
have doubts. for they recall that
Jones has been stopped by really
great players in all his starts in
the American championship up to
this one.
In his first effort at the Ameri-
can Cricket Club, Philadelphia, when
he was fourteen years old. Bob
Gardner beat him. At Pittsburgh,
In the strain of the final round.
Davidson Heron beat him. At the
Engineers Club, Francis Ouimet beat
him. and last year, when the
amateur championship was contested
AT st. Louis, Willie Hunter beat him.
The Hunter match best recalls the
thoughts which We're in the minds
Of close followers of the game as
they trudged behind Jones and
today. Jones and Hunter were all
even playing the fifteenth hole in
their match at st. Louis, Hunter
had just holed a long putt on the
fourteenth green to square the
match.
Jones outdrove Hunter twenty
yards to the long fifteenth hole.
Hunter played his second with q
wooden club and was short.
Then 1t was Jones turn. He
whipped out an iron club. Under
ordinary circumstances Jones is
perfection with an iron. He could
stand UP all day long and beat
balls onto putting greens with hard
ly a miss, at 100 yards.
At st. Louis, on that fifteenth
hole. he needed one Of his regular
iron shots, but under the pressure
of that moment he did not deliver
the shot, and at the next hole, an
easy iron shot to a large green,
again he failed to make the green
and Hunter won.

A probe Of finances In other State

Of Attorney General Alters decision to
institute proceedings against Harmon

was predicted today.
today on a charge Of misdemeanor In
Office. Deputy Attorney General Hull
will confer this morning with District
Attorney Philip Meyer.
The former Treasurer is to be charged
with failure TO keep correct account
Of certain funds in his possession during
the later period Of his term.
When Lewis assumed the Office Of
Auditor General he created furorc
by dropping more than dozen clerks
who were giving nothing IN return for
the money received. Among them was
q man whom Lewis later had convicted
for embezzlement.
Not long after the Auditor General
uncovered the embezzlement he again
surprised the Capitol by instituting nm
investigation into the Treasury Depart.
nent. That is the probe that resulted
IN the impending arrest Of Kephart.
1t is also probable that the Attorney
General will delve into the $500. .0Oo
which Snyder some time ago admitted
was the aggregate embezzlements In the
Auditor Generals department during
the four years he was at its head. Sny-
der explained at the time that the money
was returned.
The fund which Mr.. Alter, in his
opinion, stated was concealed by the
then Treasurer was sct aside for war
emergency" purposes. and there was
nothing on the books Of the department
to show its existence.
There are other contingent funds
which Mr.. Alter ia said to have In mind
and which are likely to be made the
objects of investigation at an early
date. One Of these is said to concern
the distribution Of a $14, 900 contingent
fund by State Treasurer Snyder when
he was Auditor General.
Mr.. Snyder, It was indicated, will be
called upon to reveal the names Of
persons who participated in this split.
One of the men who received share of
the fund is Auditor General Lewis,
who at the time was corporation clerk
under Snyder.
