Hutchinson Equals Course Record First Time
He Plays It

A poor tee shot that sends the
hall into the rough or Il sand trap
doesn't bother the expert pro. He
feels that he will recover the dis
tancc and reach the greens with Il
good iron shot.
AS an example, witness the re-
cent performances of Jock Hutch
ison on the Country Club course at
Miami. Fla. Despite the fact that
he had never played the course,
which is recckoned one of the
hardest in the south, Hutchinson ne
gotiated the Is holes in 81, equal
ing the course record, formerly
held by Mike Brady, western open
champion.

Many Reasons
Other Majors
Fear Athletics

ri Many reasons can be of1ereo lof
tehe fear that all other major league
tlubs have for the Athletics.
re- First. is the fact that the club is
directed by Connie Mack, the most
fresourceful manager in baseball.
q; Second, is the fact that Mack's
Rtntield now shapes us as one OF the
J oest in the league. No club can
get anywhere without strong in
|uer defense. The Athletics have
lyme.
h Third, in Cy Perkins Mack has
Sine of the best catchers in either
league. fine workman, capable OF
|cgetting the best the pitchers have.
re Fourth and last is the punch the
|u.eam packs. The Athletics are a
Free hitting aggregation, team as
thiable to make a dozen runs as a
single tally.
The Athletics are a big inning
cam. A big inning club is never
',1eaten until the ball game is over.
Only the other day in a game
Against the strong Milwaukee
team of the American Association,
MACK s atnletlcS came through Will
4 nine-run session.
Ia, One or more big innings In every
lvgame is rather common habit
with the Mackmen. Usually the
ball game is decided by such an up
rising. :.

A thorough knowledge of the in
tricacies OF a golf course is not
necessary to the expert profess
sional golfer.
The ordinary golfer is certain to
greatly improve his game after he
has once become familiar with the
course. Getting the location OF
the various traps, he seeks to avoid
them.
With the expert pro it is diff
ferent story. All the knowledge he
seeks is the distance Of the various
holes and the location Of the
greens. He figures that he usual
ly should be on in two.

No one took any stack in Curly's

Sioux Indians fought in those days,
know that they were stripped to the

they did not have any blankets
around them on that hot day of

TAX PAYMENTS
ARE BETTER

Grand Forks, April 26.-Taxpayers
of Grand Forks county were more
prompt in payment of taxes during
the first three months of 1923 than
during the same period Of 1922, ac-
cording to comparative report of
the tax collections from the period
from January l to April ! of each
year, as compiled by Charles Allen,
county treasurer.
The reason given for the improve.
ment is that people generally are adj

since the world war, and are now

Custer told Mitch Bouyer, the
guide, to tell us to go back to the
pack train which we did" From
where the Crow scouts left Custer
and to the point where Custer was
killed was over three miles AS
stated Curly never went into the
battle, and he was no more of
survivor than the other three Crow
scouts who were nearer the battle
field than Curly was, and these
three scouts have never claimed to
be survivors of the Custer nnttle.
AS one writer APPLY states it, 1T is
the accounts of sole survivors Of
Clusters command that have given
writers the greater amount Of mis-
information subsequently published
as historical truths. Sole survivors
have been plentiful, they have crop
ped up in every portion of the coun-
try, lived for a time as the hero of
the hour, and have inevitably passed
into oblivion. Curly no doubt re-
eeived his pension for being Il scout
for the government during the years
1876 and 1877, and not on account of
being an alleged sole survivor of the
Custer Battle. =
