It developed that Mrs. Fisk hadn't
much confidence in savings banks
as a depositary for her money. and
believed that the safest place for
such a. large sum was on her per-
son. Addicted to corsets, she hit
upon the idea of pinning the bills
to this article of clothing. Certainly
nothing could be safer than that,
she thought.
At night, however, another prob
lem presented itself. Sleeping in
ones corset these warm nights is
out of tine question. So Mrs. Fisk
thought of another scheme. She
wrapped her corset, money and ALL
in old newspapers every night and
tossed 1t carelessly into a corner.
A burglar would not think to look
in a pile of old papers for yaluables,
she explained to detectives.
This morning an unidentified trash
collector called at the house where
Mrs. Fisk lives alone. and he re
ceived large bundle of papers tc

showed it into the municipal trash

the first days playing and the
others from Washington whose
scores were counted in the Hard
ing competition were myself, rs,
William Mcclure, 79, and Johnny
Shorey, 81.
Page Hufty and Bob Brown. had
tough luck in their first rounds of
play. Neither of them seemed able
to get going in their game and
Hufty turned in an 81, while
Brown was way down the list with
81. Charles Agnew also failed tc
come through, but his score, like
Hufty and Brown, still leaves him
fighting chance to quality for the
first sixteen. ID
McAleer's score was easily the
most notable happening of the day.
Earl was shooting them straight
down the course with a regularity
that was surprising. His left.
handed drives frequently netted
him a splendid lie ON the green,
and his putting was all that could
be desired.
The second day of the uualifica.
ton play will find a nip and tuck
battle to land in the first sixteen
| of the championship play. MCGUIRE
Shorey and myself can continue
our present rating and come well
within the first flight. OF course
McAleer, has easy sailing for the
first flight, as his card was six
strokes below the next lowest.
The score in the Harding Cur
competition was 312, with Pitts
burgh, our closest rival, 32S. That
means that Pittsburgh has got t.
pick up sixteen strokes on us and
that is something we don't intend
they shall do.
The whole team is in good spirits
and is fully prepared to battle for
dear life for the top honors. The
individual players have excellent
chances of winning.
