CITIZENSHIP LOSS RESTORED SOLDIERS
  But This Does Not Affect Their
 Prison Sentences

Washington. March 6.-President Coolidge by proclamation has re- stored the rights Of American citizen ship 10 all deSerters from the army and navy during the three-year period between the armistice and the formal ending of the World war.
 The action affects moro than 100 men. It does not affect the status of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll
 The proclamation, issued upon the recommendation of Secretary Denby and Weeks, affects in nowise those who deserted in the face of the enemy or al any time before the armistice, and does not remit or commute the rtnIartial sentence of those who deserted after the arnlistice and prior to the technical ending of the war.
 Suffered Severe Penalties.
 The president acted to clear up situation whereby under the law those who deserted after the fighting ceased suffered the same loss of citi- zenship as those who left the military forces during the wars prosecution. The war was actually over on Nov. II, lsls.. but all who deserted after that date and before the last proca- nation of peace on Nov. IT, 1921. were deemed under the law volun- tarily to have relinquisbed and for feited their rights to citizenship, as we'll as their rights 10 become citi- zens, and to be forever incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under the United States of or exercis- ing any of the rights of American citizenship.
 Secretary Denby in q letter 10 the president. made public at the navy department coincident with issuance of the proclamation at the White House. declared the citizenship pen- alties however justitlable in cases of desertion committed during the prosecution of war, are uncom- monly harsh and severe for offenses committed at any other time"
 Many Mere Boys.
 With mere boys, as many of them ception of the statutory disabilities | which confronted them was not pos sibie," MT. Denby said. 'It is dur ing the years which have ensued. and | which they may yet have to live, as they grow 10 manhood and old age, | that they realize the terrible conse- auences of their offense and the shame which ii involves and which. unless relieved, they must carry with them 10 tho grave, 10 tho everlasting dishonor of themselves and their pos terity.
 "Thcy are forever marked men living in country without any of the of citizenship and forever de- priyed of obtaining such benefits"

POTOMAC GOLF
LINKS OPEN
TODAY
dad" SWeeter First DiVot
Digger to Start From
No. I Tee.
By LEONARD w. COLLINS.

AS the chimes of Epiphany peeled
forth the hour of six, this morning,
Dad" Sweeter standing upon No
1 tee at East Potomac Park, as.
sumed his stance. addressed the
ball, pivcted and with the essence
and accuracy Of Winchester drove
the little white pellet down the
fairway.
Dad Sweeter had Officially
opened the 1924 public links season
at East Potomac Park. Not that
dad" had been previously con.
ferred with this honor, but that 1t
was his bag Of clubs which were
the first to be placed in the rack
this morning.
1t was simply a case Of "first
come, first off," and dad" Sweeter
was awaiting at the club house
long before Sam Miller or Hiram
Tennyson were upon the scene to
unlock the doors.
After that 1t was an almost
steady stream which wendell its
way from the club house to No. l
tee. And 1t will be steady stream
from now until the course is closed
late next fall.
Originally scheduled to open on
March Is rain and snow has re.
peatedly forced one postponement
after another of the contemplated
opening. Even with the course
open Manager Leoffler has found IL
necessary to confine the playing to
temporary green's.
The greens are in wonderful
shape, but water-logged. 1t will
take couple of days Of a drying.
out sun and wind to permit of their
being used.
Out at Rock Creek Park it had
been planned to use permanent
green's beginning today, but the
drizzle of the early morning has
precluded any and all possibility of
their being played upon for a
few more days.

NAVY LACROSSE
TEAM PLAYS
MARYLAND
Army and Navy Circles to Be
Well Represented at
Saturdays, Game.

Many persons of note in navy
and army circles in Washington and
vicinity will attend the University
of Maryland and Naval Academy
lacrosse game at Central High
School stadium Saturday afternoon.
The game is one of the most popu-
lar pastimes, both at Annapolis
and West Point, and the service folk
who are familiar with it are ardent
followers of the sport.
Then, too, navy and army, nj
though both have been playing the
Indians game for years, will meet
in lacrosse this spring for the first
time. The navy men will want to
see what they have to depend upon
to defeat their dearest rival and
the army men will want to find out
just what they will have to beat.
The stickmen at College Park put
a busy afternoon yesterday in prim.
ing for the midshipmen, and reports
from Annapolis state that the navy
squad was just as busy. A large
@ slegation will come over from An.
! apolis for the game and College
J ark will be deserted in favor of
lie contest.
Tickets for the game are on sale

GERMAN BOXERS
USE HARD
M|TTS
Four Ounce Gloves and Stiff
Bandages Make Ring
Game Tough.

In Germany, where boxing has
taken hold the last few years, there
is a demand for larger boxing
gloves. According to the Berlin
Zeitung, the gloves used in matches
there have weighed only four
ounces, and in addition the boxers
have been permitted to wear Kard
bandages about their hands. The
paper suggests that the commits
sions in the United States should
also use gloves over four ounces.
1t is evident that the boxing
critics in Berlin are not up to snuff
as regards the regulations in the
States. The fact is the little Eel.
lows up to featherweights and light
weights are limited to fove-ounce
gloves heavier II the promoters so
des;re) and soft bandages; welters
and middleweights must use moth
ing under six-ounce gloves and
heavyweights are supposed to use
even heavier ones, although in
many cities they are given six
ounce gloves, except where the title
is involved, and then five. ounce
gloves are permitted in some places,
but mostly six ounces.
II the German and also the Aus
trian boxing authorities will take
the trouble to obtain the rules and
regulations of the New York and
Wisconsin commissions, they will
find everything very much to their
way Of thinking.

RUMoRs OF RANcocAs
SALE KILLED BY OWNER

MOUNT HOLLY N. j., April o.
Wild rumors that the great racing
string of the Rancocas Stock Farm
at Jobstown-the world-famous Zev
and his laurel.winning companions
of the turf-was to be disposed of
and for the present, at least. there
would be no more racing under the
Rancocas colors, were set at rest
today, when it became definitely
known that the reports started from
q decision Of the farm manager and
owner, Harry r. Sinclair, to sell the
high-class cattle and swine that
have had their part in bringing the
farm into prominence among
breeders.
The understanding is that the
horses are not to be touched by any
sale that is now contemplated, but
the aristocratic COWS and bulls are
to go under the hammer next
month.
