than we do" And everyone who
heard them speculated on the
brothers chances II he. had had his
three famous brothers to back him
up In his battle for the State title.
There were four golf players

Guiding Miss Annette, who,

have the best chances Of com.

recently won the Missouri open
classic and Abe's most notable
work on the links during the
season was finishing In q tie for
fifth place in the national open.
Abe also was runnor-up TO Mac
donald Smith In the Northern
California open and advanced
into the third round Of the West
ern open ct Chicago.
Abe and Al have been confused
more than once in recent golfing
campaigns. When Al went to Eng
land in June for the British open
the daily papers carried q story
that ABE" had failed to qualify
for the classic by a single stroke
Abe got the blame when he was
5000 miles away, but when Al won
the Missouri open some weeks ago
Abe fell in for some borrowed
glory.
Abe, Al, Romie, Henry. and Ray

cause Cal is a very thorough

Therefore, If. he wishes to ad-

They have been tagging foot
ball players in this manner for
years, because at least one sub
stitution usually follows every
play. Sixteen ends or ninety
qVarterbacks may play in the
same game, and the public is
entitled to know who's who.
Jockeys and horses are usually
assigned complete set of num-
bers so that in case of a spill
you can tell the animal from
the rider. There's no sense
though in indexing six-day bike

who's leading anyway.

CRATERS OF MOON ARE
MADE NATIONAL PARK

President Coolidge, on recommend
alton of Secretary Work, has set
aside the "Craters of the MoOn," OF
valley of the Moon" as originally
christened by Bob Limbert, a lava
wonderland near Arco, in southern
Idaho, as a national monument. The
area set aside covers thirty-nine
square miles and was given its name
because of similarity of its surface
with that of the moon as seen through
a telescope.
For some time movement has been
carried on to make that region a ma
tional park. The area is of scant
value even for grazing purposes and
it is of sufficient natural interest and
wonder to justify government super
vision and control over it to a great
err degree than is possible simply as
general public domain.
Last year while home from Wash
ington, Congressman Addison T.
Smith visited the section and was
convinced that the movement to have
it set aside was worthy of his support
and since then he has been active in
the matter.

AUTO OWNERS
NOT TAXPAYERS,
COURT HOLDS

Automobile owners are not taxpay-
ers within the meaning Jf the law
governing bond elections, Judge d. e.
Brinck, at Boise held in dismissing
suit brought by Sanford f. Hart
man to compel the election board OF
precinct No. to enroll him as a vot-
er for the 100000 station approach
bond election. The suit, brought as
test case, was to determine the
question of eligibility of automobile
owners who pay no other taxes, to
vote at the city bond election. An
appeal will be taken Immediately to
the supreme court, in accordance with
the agreement before the case started.
The question of constitutionaity of
the automobile license law, raised by
p. e. Cavaney in the same suit, was
held to have been settled already by
the supreme court.
The Boise city council on April 10
voted that for the purpose of this
election automobile owners should be
taxpayers. The vote was
4 to l. The test case was instituted
as consequence of the councils ac-
ton, since the city administration de-
sired to avoid any question of legality
Of the issue on this point.
