Distance means something. but it
noes not mean everything in golf
Yet without distance-ordinary dis
tance-no man can expect to win a
major championship these days.
Donald Ross put in some of his
best licks at French Lick And la
Donald Ross course speaks for itsetf,
with Its elevated greens and it's we'll
placed bunkers. Ross built Oakland
Hills and he has performed in much
the same way at French Lick where
the second shots must be all carry.
Little rolling up to the putting
greens goes at French Lick. Either
you get there or you don't
6.471 Yards In Length.
The course beginning tomorrow
will be 6.471 yards in length-s,2o4
out and 3.267 in. Par is 72-36 each
way. So much for the vital statistics.
But we imagine that Fred Mcleod
will not be at too great a disadvan-
tage at the home of Pluto Water. for
We have seen diminutive Freddy play
Columbia in So when it was stretched
out to $500 yards. Distance means a
whole lot, but not SO much when a
golfer like Mcleod is laying approach
shots up against the hdIe. Bob Bar
nett shouldn't have much trouble
with French Lick, either, while Leo,
Diegels game speaks for itself He
takes odds from no man off the tee
In the field of 81 who will start to-
morrow, most of whom have been at
French Lick for the past four days
practicing for the event, will be Sara
zen, the title holder: Walker, the
American open champion: Walter Ha-
gen, British open champion; Jock
Hutchison, until a week ago Western
open champion; Bill Mehlhorn, the
new Western king; Johnny Farrell
and every other pro of prominence in
this country.
The 80 low scores in the 36-hole
test tomorrow will qualify for the
match play rounds which start Tues
day, with each match at SO holes.
Finals will be played next Saturday.

be paralyzed because Of the additional
burden thrown upon it. but watch the

be not surprised at all that nine
tenths Of them do just that. The
novice at golf nearly aways makes
his left leg stand all the strain Of the
back swing, and his shots remain con-
stantly poor. He does this either be-
cause Of a lack of instruction, or If
he has been instructed the chances

OF 1923
REVIVED in FIGHT
OVER WISCONSIN
Blaine and SeversOn Unit
ed Only in Supporting
La Toilette
B: EDWARD P. HALLINE
UNITED Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

MADISON, Wis, Oct. 24.--All of
the noise in the Wisconsin state cam
paign is furnished by tae revival of
some hints i'll what is termed the
estate house scandal of 1929
This show was staged at the last
session of the Legislature with Gov.
John J. Blaine and Senator Herman
j. Sevcrson as the principals. Both
are La Toilette Frogressives, but
that is their only tie.
Scvcrson demanded investigation
of alleged immortality and malfeas-
ancc in office on the part of public
officials, but the resolution was
beaten by one vote.
Gov. Blaine, in return, accused
Severson of maligning scores of men
and women in the capital without
specifying any misconduct or nam
ing any official.
fhe show is being produced again
but there are some new faces in
the cast, principally Judge Martin
l.. Lueck, the Democratic nominee
for governor.
"Blaine sits on the lid at Madi-
son while he praises La Toilette for
lifting the lid at Washington, -
Lueck tells his hearers as he lashes
the state administration for alleged
graft, waste and inefficiency.
Workers in Charge
Bat this bombardment has had to
be conducted at long range for Gov
ernor Blaine and almost the entire
Republican state ticket have left the
campaign in the hands of the local
workers and are stumping other
states in behalf of Senator La Fol
lette's presidential candidacy.
In addition, Republican regulars
like Senator Lenroot and exGover-
nor E. L. Phillip have denounced
Blaine, read the entire state ticket
out of the party and are openly or
tacitly supporting Lueck.
The confident attitude of the La
Toilette leaders is best indicated
by the fact that Gov. Blaine, At
torney General German L. Eckern,
State Treasurer Sol Levitan and sew
eral congressman have practically
a abandoned their own campaigns to
work for the success of the La Fol
lette- Wheeler ticket.
The senator himself has not been
in the state since last June.
Administration lieutenants re-
gard the charge of state house cor
ruption as a dead and buried issue.
The issue was revived for the pri-
mary campaign but Blaine polled
nearly so per. cent of the total vote.
AS vet neither Seversom nor any
one else has named single public
official or made a specific charge i'll
connection with his general accusa
ton, Blaine leaders point out.

80 workmen have been engaged in

W. Runge, district passenger agent

"What has expedited the work
very considerably is the fact that
the city gave permission to have
the road closed, and consequently
no cessation of the men employed
on the work has been necessary. AS
soon as they are finished, work will
be started on the Commercial Street
crossing, and one or two other spots
