the event in this country. England
will send over her strongest team,
while Australia also is dispatching
her best feminine talent. All will

America will put her best foot

FORE.
AND AFTER
BY ROSS coNKLIN-

They have decided at Rock
Creek that they shall have only
one flight in the Rock Creek Park
golf championship tournament
Only sixteen will qualify, and that
means that to get in one will have
to be a pretty neat sort of a club
swinger. The two who win out
there on the mountains will be
taken to Garden City for the ma
tional municipal links.
Qualifying play will start Monday
morning and will probably last
through Tuesday evening. The
first round of match play will be
started Thursday morning and on
next Friday the finals will be held.

enrolled i'm the hOle.in-One club.
and Sammy Parks, Rock 6 eek
shooter, is the name. Sammy was
blazing in a foursome when he
smacked one just right ON the
I short fifth hole, 154 yards, at
Rock Creek. He used q mid iron,
and when that ball got through
its earthly Wanderings 1t found
rest and comfort in the bottom
of the cup.
Playing with Parks were George
Mcdonald, Bill Melton. AMI Russell
Parks. his brother. The four got
trl shakes from that one shot, and

nlerrily on the remainder of the trip.

halved the nineteenth. and when
Joe put his mashie shot on the
short twentieth on the greer while
Lynch was off to the side. it looked
all over.
But. Joe slipped up a cog, in fact.
iIe slipped several. He was way
over on his first putt. Finally he
got down in four puts, and Lynch,
his nerve somewhat strained under
the twenty.hole fight. tried his

He shipped out short on his Sec

narrow one for a winning four on

But that was five years ago!
In 1928 and 1924 Coveleslxie did
not do so well. His combined
records for the two years show
twenty-eight victories and thirty
eight defeats, which was not so
good. though not so bad, either.
Last winter Iris Speaker, the
gray-haired Indian manager,
decided to let Coveleslie go. Iris
figured that the Polish iright-hand.
er had not been going any too
good and would certainly not
improve over another season.
Speakers reasoning seemed sound.
Coveleslxie is thirty-five years Of
age and at thirty-five few come
backs are registered in big league
baseball.
So Speaker traded Stanley to
the Worlds Champion Washington
Senator'S for Byron Specie. an
underhand right-1ander, and a
bundle Of kale, said to be SIS 900.
iris promptly put the money in
the bank or some other safe place,
meditated upon whether he could
develop Specie into a winner and
promptly forgot all about Coveles-
kie.

Could Iris Speaker have been able

they probably would have got ii.

seem to have obtained.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, June 15.-Con-
Vlnced they have completed a chain Of

tatives Of the district attorneys office
concerned themselves today with estab,
fishing u motive.
The first object Of their search was
will which they had been informed
Charles Patrick Grogan, Is year old
son of the slain woman, had made in
favor of Young within the past fort
night at the request of Young Grogan,
who was the principal heir to his faith
ers estate. had continued to live with
his stepfather up to the moment he
learned the latter had confessed to kill
ing his mother and contriving to have
the son unwittingly aid in sealing the
body in a cistern.
Young had insisted he killed his wife
by administering an anaesthetic be-
cause of resentment over the fact that
she insisted from the day Of their mar
riage on "being the boss" in their
home and that she had slapped him in
the face during quarrel in a cafe.
What investigators regarded as the
last link in their chain of evidence
connecting Young with the killing was
the finding yesterday near the scene of
the Staying of rubber cone which
Young said he used in administering
the anaesthetic.
The possibility that Young had an
accomplce to aid him in concealing the
Staying and supporting his story that
Mrs Young had voluntarily disappeared
after quarrel on the night of Feb,
ruary 21, last, also was under consid-
Grafton by the Investigators. Accord

TWO WOUNDED
in SHOOTING
One of Smugglers Is Ar
rested Near Rio Grande
City by Officers

One wounded smuggler is being held
by officers at Rio Grande City, and
another has probably crossed the Rio
Grande following shooting affray near
that city late Saturday night in which
bd der patrol officers were attacked
by the outlaws.
The officers captured one man, who
was wounded, and quantity of liquor,
which was abandoned by the smugglers
Sheriff Guerra of Starr county, and
immigration Inspectors Jesse Perez and
Glenn Durham composed the party Of
U. S. officers. They encountered the
smugglers a short distance out from
Rio Grande City.
The smugglers opened fire without
waiting for the officers to take any ac-
tion, and the fire was returned. In
the shooting two smugglers were
wounded.
One of the wounded men was cap
tured, and is being detained by officers.
Details of the affair were lacking, a
meagre report having been made to I'm
migration Inspector D. w. Brewster, in
charge of the Brownsville district, this
morning.
