yard thirty-second for an eagle two. The drive was on the edge of the green and the putt was fairly in. On his second out round, his S3 was made through the finest shooting ever seen on the Skokie course.
 Only once did he get any real luck on hole and that was through 2o- foot putt, and once he got 8 bad break when two shots in succession on the 5so yard twenty-fifth barely rolled into traps, being a six against par five. The rest of that one un- der par total was just plain golf ability, every shot going absolutely true.
 The incoming nine of this round 35 for tho 6s--was even better. A bad shot on the twenty y-seventh gave a five where perfection Is four, but the rest of the card was made up of six fours and two threes--two of the eight being birdies-and he end- ed with a total for the nine of one under par.
 Used All Clubs Well. The title winner did not excel with any one club in his play. He swung them all nicely at all times, and throughout his 72 holes he did not really dub a single attempt. Once or twice he pushed or pulled little too much to one side or the other. but the figures which were too big usually were made more through bad breaks than through any In his tech nique.
 The 6S is believed to be the first time that any player had beaten TO in his final round Of national tournament.
 oddly, only a very few of the 12,- 000 persons who paid to watch the play during the two days saw the new champion shoot. The galleries all followed Bobby Jones, Hasan. Evans, Black, Duncan and such we'll known stars, especially when 1t be- came known exactly what Jones, Ha- gen and Black had to shoot to win.
 Bobby and Black both fought bravely before their comparative null titudes, but they could not quite make 1t. They facei tremendous mental handicaps in knowing they had to shoot virtually perfect fig ures when they still had nine or more holes to go.

 After Sarazen's 33 card, he drew a fairly large gallery. but at no time did it approach in size some of the crowds drawn by the others. It was nara To COnVlnCo lno puDllc tHdl la- vorites would lose and even when it was known they had to shoot par to win, many offers of bets that they would were made.
 The paid attendance yesterday was more than 5000, and slightly less than that figure today, although to- days play decided rhe title. The weather and playing conditions were virtually perfect. Not cloud marred the sky either day and the greens were perfect although the fairways today were beginning to get little hard. No complaints from the play CTS were heard, however.
 It was announced tonight that ar engagements had been made for a British team to come over here in Au- gust and play an international match with an American team. The latter undoubtedly will number Sarazen among it's members.

SCORES FRENCH ACTION
IN DESERVING SMYRNA
She Could Hand Over Paris to Her
Bosom Friend, the Turk, Writes
Greco-American.
To the Editor Of The Star:

Under the caption. "Poincare Ad-
Used on Eastern Policy" I notice
the very liberal way in which the
French premier has been advised re-
garding what amounts to the virtual
continuance of the province OF smyrna
and Thrace under Turkish rule.
AS Greek by birth and an Ameri-
can citizen by choice, and one who
fought under the flag of the allies,
beg emphatically to protest against
the policy of allowing Smyrna to be
continued under the iron heel of Tur-
key for the purpose of carrying out
the imperialism of France.
France had the opportunity. and
still has. Of placating the Turk at her
own expense, rather than az the eN-
pense of Greece. She could go all
the way to handing over Paris to
her bosom friend. the Turk-the Turk
who was potent in backing up Ger
many against the allies. includinz 3
France, during the world war; the
Turk who has butchered the Chris
tian. for no other reason but because
a Christian Is not a Mohammedan: ::
the Turk who has cursed Europe for
twelve centuries; the Turk who has
morality and justice in its govern
ment; the Turk who has made the
city of Constantinop1e an Augean
stable, and in every other way rem
dered himself unfit for a seat in the
new society of nations. and has no
claim to rule over other peoples.
The Hellenic has been fighting for
freedom from Turkey since 1443, and
not until 1921 did she accomplish
this freedom, and then only in small
part. and now that she is stronger
by 100 per cent than she then was,
it is the earnest hope of all my COM
patriots that the allies will see that
she gets her rights. We are willing
to shed our last drop of blood for the
freedom Of Greece from Turkish DOM
nation PETER S. HIOCRES.

CHANGES ACCEPTED
IN NREFUND|NG BILL
House Agrees to Amend
ments of Senate by Over
WheIming Majority.

BY an overwhelming majority the
House agreed to the Senate amend
ments to the foreign debts refunding
commission bill yesterday. and sent
the measure to the President. thus
clearing the way for negotiations
looking to the refunding of these for
eign debts totaling s11 100000.
AS President Harding did not press
his objections to tie Senate changes
after he had discussed them with
Chairman Fordney Of the ways and
means committee and with Secretary
Mellon. who is to head the commits
sion of five authorized to conduct ne
gotiations with the debtor nations. it
is expected that he will promptly
sign the measure. making it law.
Appointment Expected Soon.
Appointment Ct the ether four COM
missioners by the executive is looked
for within g. short time. 1t was
made known at the White House that
Mr.. Harding planned to name two
members of the cabinet and a member
each of the Senate and House. There
was no indication at ti e White House
who would be named, but among
those mentioned elsewhere in connec-
ton with the appointments were
Secretaries Hoover and Weeks, SEN
sentative Longworth of Ohio.
While plans for conducting the
negotiations with the debtor nations
have not yet been formulated, 1t was
said in informed quarters that they
probably would be conducted both in
this country and abroad.
Objections Not Pressed.
AS finally enacted. the debt refund
ing bill was unsatisfactory both to
the administration and republican n
leaders OF the House, but it was said
| that objections to it were not pressed
because OF the delay that would be
involved in sending it to conference
for the ironing out of differences be-
tween the two houses.
Chief objection centered on the Sem
ate amendment requiring that the re-
funded obligations mature not later
than June Is, 1947. and that the mini
| mum interest rate be Az per cent.
Both the President and Secretary
Mellon were represented as preferring
a free hand for the commission as to
the life Of the bonds and the interest
rate.
The Treasury Secretary was said to
have held, however, that these limita-
tions would not be insurmountable in
the refunding of the debts of the
larger nations and that If it should
develop that they prevented the re-
funding of the debts of the smaller
and newer nations the commission
could seek additional authority from
Congress.
