SARAZEN L ADS
GOLFERS IN
FLORIDA

MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 30.-CP)-Genc
Sarazen, whose card of IA enabled
him to lead a field of stellar players
yesterday in the opening of Miami's
second annual championship golf tour
nament at Hialeah, paired off this
morning with two other champions
for the final &c holes of play.
BY Quirl Of circumstances, three
nationally prominent players, each of
whom has won the national open title,
teed off. Sarazen. winner of the
honor in 1922. went out with Bobby
Jones. 1928 title-holder and himself
national amateur champion, and with
Willie MacFarlane, present champion.
Fifteen minutes later came a well
known trio which included Johnny
Farrell, Mike Brady and Jock Hutchi-
son.
Eddie Loos and Willie Klein, who
shared second honors yesterday with
card of 145 each, followed this
match as members Of successive three
somes.
FIVE STROKES BEHIND.
Although Jones and MacFarlane are
five strokes behind Sarazen at the
head of the column, the battle that
this pair has been waging has held
the bulk Of attention.
Golf history repeated itself today
when Jones and MacFarlane went into
another sensational tie, duplicating
their feat of the Worcester tourna-
ment, where the latter annexed his
present title.
The Albanian, during the morning
round yesterday, frequently made
consistently.
After turning in II to tie Leo
Diegel. Canadian open champion, vii
fred Reid and Wallic Klein at the
end of the first Is holes. Jones struck
difficulty on the second hole in the
afternoon. BY coincidence, Mac
Farlane, playing in another threesomc
also met his first trouble at this hole,
as did Diegel.
HIT BY OWN SHOT.
The hole proved disastrous to Die
gel, whose second stroke at this hole
slammed against tree nearby and
rebounded to hit him squarely in the
chest. forcing him to take eight shots
to hole out. This mishap apparently
unsteadied Diegel, who up to this time
had been leading the field.
Jones experienced a slight reversal
of his morning form in the afternoon
rounds, his trouble starting on the sec
ond hole. The Atlanta golfer took six
here, where, during the morning. he
had sunk a 40-foot putt for n birdie
three. On the last nine he was one
above par on the tenth, eleventh, four
tcenth, seventeenth and eighteenth.
His approach on the eighteenth was
over the green into the bunker. He
made a pretty explosion shot recovery
out of the sand, but took two puts
for a five.

pull, when arresting it, is so great
that the player will either loosen his

he resists both these he will probably

OPINION
Waco Principal Says He
Delegated Coach TO
Sign Blanks.

AUSTIN, Dec. 30.-While no Off
cial statement was forthcoming pend
ing q meeting of the University Of
Texas Interscholastic Leagues execu-
tive committee. it was indicated unof'
ficially this morning that Beaumont
High Schools protest against Waco
High in the state football race woul1
be disallowed.
Beaumont protested late yesterday,
claiming the Waco team, which is
scheduled to meet Forest Avenue High
of Dallas, in the Fair Park Stadium
at Dallas on Saturday, for the state
championship, is ineligible to COM
pete because the eligibility blanks Of
all the players have not been signed
by the Waco High School superintend-
cnt or principal.
DELEGATED TYSON.
Il. I. Gcnheimer. principal of Waco
High, sent word today that no Waco
committee would come here to attend
any meetings on the protest, but that
he was mailing at once an affidavit
setting forth that he delegated Coach
Paul Tyson TO sign all eligibility
blanks now ON record with the state
league. Tyson's signature alone APP
pears on the blanks.
Rule IL of the new state high school
football code stipulates that the prin-
cipal or superintendent must sign the
blanks. The tcchnicality in the pro
test against Waco lies in the failure Of
the league rule to provide for sigma.
ture of the blanks by an agent of the
principal. such as Mr.. Genheimer
claims Coach Tyson was delegated

BEAUMONT CASE CLOSED.
The league yesterday refused to re-
open the case of Beaumont High
School, ruled out because of the in
eligibility of Captain Sam Balliew,
who was found to have played four
previous seasons of high school foot
ball. The refusal was made on the
grounds Of insufficient evidence pre-
scented by a committee from Beau
mont.
The protest against Beaumont was
made by Waco. When the state league
refused to reopen the Beaumont case.

USE OF 81 BILL HAS
TREBLED SINCE 1910
HIGH PRICES, AUTOMOBILES
AND MOVIES BLAMED BY
THE GOVERNMENT.

High prices the automobile and
movies undoubtedly were responsible
for the run on the one-dollar bill, but
the federal bureau of efficiency be-
lieves the American public has per
mitted the habit of carrying a pocket
ful of the convenient form of currency
to go to excess.
A study of the uses OF the one-dol-
lar bill, just completed by the govern
ment's efficiency bureau, shows that
seven times as many one-dollar bills
are carried now as in 1900, and the in
crease in the use of the bill since 1910
has tripled The estimated production
of dollar bills for the present year is
800 tons, against ninety tons in 1900.
The bureau believes that IS too
much"
Efforts of the treasury department
to put silver coins back into circula-
ton have been unsuccessful and re-
cent campaign to popularize the two
dollar bill has met with no enthusi-
asm. so the efficiency bureau was ask
ed to get the facts regarding the one
dollar measure.
"The drift toward the excessive use
of INSTRUMENTATION bills" says the
report. SIS uneconomical from the
standpoint of both the public and the
government.
THE development of so bulky a
currency is bad from the standpoint
OF the users because Of the time the
individual loses in having his change
counted out to him in small bills. He
loses time again in counting 1t out
when he makes a purchase. The mer-
chant has a great bulk OF small bills
that he must count into the bank,
where they must again be counted.
The bank has an added task in
handling this bulky currency II, tor
example, it is a member of the federal
reserve system and wants to send its
extra currency TO the reserve bank.
Both banks have to count a bulky
shipment. The reserve bank may want
TO send the used notes to Washing
ton for redemption. 1t is forced TO
count innumerable small denomina-
ton bills
when these bills reach Washing
ton they must be counted and recount
ed, sorted according to currency type,
examined lest they be counterfeit, de-
stroyed with proper formality. The
smaller the denomination the greater
the work in thus retiring any gwen
$1,000.
New money must be issued in the
place of that destroyed. The lie OF a
dollar bill is but seven months. 1t
completes its cycle and is replaced in
that time. If hves can replace ones
there is a corresponding saving II
twos can be made to serve the cost
will be reduced to one-half.
The two-dollar bill, the report says,
is useful denomination that has
fallen into disuse for no sound reason
but merely because II IS believed to
be unlucky. 1t is largely used in Can
ada. In England the smallest piece Of
paper money in use is a ten-shilling
bill which is worth little more than
the two-dollar bill
