"HOLE IN ONE" IS
 .. EASY FOR "SANDY'

LONDON, Feb. IA. - Shooting a "hole in one' is becoming a habit with Sandy Herd, the famous Scotch golfer, who held the British open championship in 1902.
 Sandy set new worlds "hole in one" record at Kingston -on-Thames a few days ago when he did the hole in one for the seventeenth time in his life. He still sights for fresh con- quests, however, and believes he will be able to make his record of 'ones" an even twenty before he writes finis to his golfing career.
 Herds desire to add three more to his record is inspired by an offer of an American friend to give him a solid gold butter when he achieves his ambition. He confidently eX- poets to win that butter.
 So far as records show, the near est approach to Herds performance is that of Jim Braid, who has shot a hole in one eleven times. J. H.. Matteson, an Irish amateur, and J. H. Taylor have had eight each. Har- ny Vardon, although he has won six worlds championships has holed a tee shot only once in his career.

Dire Results Forecasted if Condition Is Not
 Remedied
LANDLORDS LOSE MILLIONS
Resistance to Increase
 Results in Refusal to Pay Any Rental

LONDON, Feb. 14.-England forccL into a revolution over rents-that sounds absurd, yet it is the very seri- ous possibility which J. Ramsay Mac Donald leader of the Labor Party, sees in the present rent situation in England and Scotland.
 There is a full-fledged rent strike on in Scotland. In London there is rapidly growing rent strike. Scottish landlords are losing millions of dol lars weekly in unpaid rents, and Eng fish landlords are losing thousands.
 During the war Parliament passed an act forbidding increases in rents. In 1920 this act was amended, giving the right to landlords to an increase of from 30 to 40 per cent. This was taken to the courts by tenants, and House of Lords decision held the amendment granting increases to be illegal. The result has been that hun dreds of tenants have refused to pay any rents. The landlords are urging the Bonar Law Government to revise the legislation and make it possible for them to collect their rents.
 Labor Party Split
 The Labor Party is split upon the issue, which is vital one to every workingman.
 q am a supporter of law when properly declared" Ramsay MacDon- aid said but he charges that the Gov ernment is considering retrospective legislation which will permit landlords to keep increased rents which have been paid.
 'If the Government persists in it's rumored policy of retrospective legis- lation I can only think that it is de liberately heading for a reyolution!' Macdonald declares.
 "PersonaIly I see breakers ahead but my final word to the Government is, May your blood be on your own head'!"
 Not General View
 This serious view taken by MacDOn- aid is not held by all Labor leaders, but there is no doubt that the situa- tion is fraught with difficulties for the Government because it is closely relat- ed to the problem of unemployment. Many of the rent strikers are also un- employed and are enrolled in the un- employed organizations. Any at tempts at wholesale evictions of the rent strikers is certain to lead to ugly situations.
 MacDonald's predictions of possible revolutions are not too seriously re- garded for the British subject is a slow-moving individual, and it would take very considerable jolt to jar him into rebellion against the Gov ernment At the same time the situ- ation is causing worry to the Gov ernment for not only are property owners suffering heavy losses but it is realized that action to remedy the situation is going to lead to disturb ances, and England hates disturbances no matter how small.

 3-Remember that style and deport- ment are more important than step.
 4-Take part in as many dances as possible, and avoid sitting out for the purpose of carrying on a short lived Irritation with some scented and curled adventurer.
 5-"One ball. one partner" is not only unutterably boring, but it is anti-social.
 6-Sparkling head bands are eensi- ble as well as pretty, but don't paint and powder the face.
 7-Don't let boy lift you off your feet and whirl you through the air. Were you to let go it might be a case of spine broken can't recover"
 8-Never take intoxicating drink at dance. There is no better stimu- lant than the wine of youth.
 9--After the ball go straight home along with other girl friends, and don't allow yourself to be escorted circuitously by your best boy at the moment, whom perhaps you have just picked up" without any previous acquaintance.
 10-Never accept invitations to any dance at night clubs, no matter how exclusive. They are the haunts of dope and vice.

SHERRY MACEE WANTS TO GET
 JOB AS UMPIRE

NEW YORK, Feb. IA. - Sherwood but no doubt quaint and picturesque as always, would finish out his string by donning the official blue and call ing them whether he sees them or not. Sherry is down to his last chip, physi- cally, having been cast into the outer darkness by Joe Cantillon.
 Fate holds no end less flattering than this: Joe manages what is slightingly referred to as the "Old Mans Home" out in Minneapolis, and it is presumed that Sherry was deemed too ancient for further association with other inmates.
 Magee is one of a dying race of ball players who really have an abid. ing affection for their profession. It was his boast that he would never quit the game until they cut his uni form off his back. A farewell from Cantillon is just about tanamount to this. They have to be pretty bad be- fore Joe turns them out.
 Had Good Reason
 At that Magee didn't have bad season in 1922. Always a clean, free hitter, he turned in an average of 35S and otherwise gave evidence that the old sharpshooting eye was still able to function. But his legs were gone, and ball player without legs is like a sword-swallower without a throat. Sherry was told to hObble out of the way to make room for Clyde Milan, another old-timer just let out as manager of the Washington Senators.
 There is nothing, however, essen tially wrong with the eyesight of a middle-aged citizen who can hit .35S in the American Association, and Ma gee has notified John Heydler that the National League needs him as an umpire.

 Magee would be an interesting and colorful experiment in the vocation another Tim Hurst perhaps. He was never known to haTbor much affec- ton for members Of the profession lie would new adOrn ant once went so ia" as to conclude a discussion with an arbiter named Finneran by the simple expedient of knocking the latter into a position best described as this end up!" The episode, though satisfying was costly one, Magee drawing a heavy fine and suspension.
 On another occasion he attained some little notoriety by stepping blandly forth from the thlrd-story window of the Junction Hotel, in Phil adelphia. Magee's next step, fOrtu- nately, was an adjoining roof, ten feet below, and his disregard of the great Isaac Newton's laws had no more serious consequences than some bruises and an injured leg.
 During the 1914 worlds series Magee and Ring Lardner were boon companions, and it is a matter Of rec ord that neither removed his overcoat during the four or five days the series ran on. The Boston Braves at that time were sitting on top of the world, having come up from last to first place in winning the National League pen nant and topping this off by beating the Athletics, four straight, for the worlds title.
 Hopes Blasted
 Magee had never played in world, S series, and when he was traded to the Braves for George Whitted the following year he believed that luck had broken with him at last. It was inst the other way however. The Braves proceeded to try to get by on their reputation, and the Phillles, Ma gees old team, staggered into their first and only championship.
 He ultimately realized his ambltlon of being with championship outtlt' but realization came too late for actual participation in big series. He got a iob with the Cincinnati Reds in 1913 and battled with Rube Bressler almost to the end of the season for place in the outfield. But in the last few weeks of the campaign Pat Duncan came up from the South, beat both of them out for the place, and Magee played his only worlds series from the bench.

DUNAWAY SUING
GYPSUM CONCERN
FOR BACK PAY

Sam w. Dunaway, formerly gen
cral manager Of the Imperial Gvp-
sum and Oil company, filed suit suit
against the coneera yesterday az
ternOon, alleging there is $3.50 due
him for back salary. According to
the complaint, Mr.. Dunaway sign
ed /. contract to act as manager of
the company, commencing January
!, 1921, and continued in that ca
pacity until April 1923, the con
tract calling for a salary of 5000
per month. OF the total sum of
$8, $50 due him for services rendered
in that time, Mr.. Dunaway claims
the company paid him only 5000
and asks that it be ordered to pay
him the balance of 1880.
The Imperial Gypsum and Oil
Company operates a large gypsum
plant, at Dunaway several miles
west of Dixieland on the San Diego
highway, where Il good sized settle
ment has been built up about the
company crusher. The gypsum
mines are located about 23 miles
north or Dunaway, the product be
ing hauled on Il private railroad
from the mines to the crusher. 1t
has been understood that the com
pany has been doing good business
forthe past year or more, rs there
is considerable demand for gypsum
and shipments from the plant have
been regular.
Joseph +. Seymour is attorney for
Mr.. Dunaway.
