DOINGS IN FOREIGN CAPITALS
Prince of Wales Golf Is Improving but It can Stand Even More Im- provement. @ a

London. Sept. 25.-The Prince of Wales golf is improving-but it could still be much better. Daniels, who caddies for the heir apparent to the British throne, when he plays over the famous St. Georges links at Sand wich, is authority for the statement.
 Daniels says Wales gets along nicely with the wood frequently making magnificent shots with them But his short game is somewhat "scratchy." The Duke of York is considered by the caddy a steadier player and more like ly to turn a better medal round at the honor able and ancient game than his elder broth CT.
 Wales Is qualified for membership in the great fraternity of average golfers He is satisfied when he breaks 100 over full course. He has been known, however, to finish IS holes in the early sos and to have been very proud of his work. The chief diff hculty of the prince is in making his mashie behave when about 100 yards of the cup Daniels says only practice will remedy this weakness but that the prince is very human young man and would play round with g.. friend than devote the little time he has for golf to dull practice.

THE GERTRUDE EDERLE HAT

A hat has been named after Gertrude Ederle. The appearance of the headdress duly labeled in milliners' windows has given the American swimmers feat in crossing the channel the ultimate conservation which wo- men can bestow.
 Miss Ederle, although she swan the Chan nel in the usual bathing attire with cap and goggles. has left traces in French fashion more elegant that her red rubbed head protector It is close fitting brmless hat--of the toque variety-executed in luminous sea green velvet across which the light glimmers like the sun shine over the channel on a bright day. The hat is finished smartly in front with a pin some four inches long representing Neptune's trident
 The little hat looks particularly we'll against furs and comes as 8 cheerful novelty at moment when the millners are busy thinking of the dark days of winter ahead

SHOW ARTIFICIAL SUNBURN

A uniform coating of dull, dark red paint, attempting to initiate sunburn is now being applied to chorus girls at Nice and velvety white has disappeared temporarily from the stages of the Riviera theaters
 No reform wave was intended by the di- rectors when they issued the order that all chorus girls must paint their bodies with a lay- CT Of the reddish paint. They were concerned over the fact that chorus sunburned to various tints of brown, mingled with the milk white of the non-bathers spoiled the color scheme A white grease paint was at first attempted but even then the difference be- tween the complexions of the beach favorites and the water shirkers was quite noticeable and the charms of the delicately coored cos tumes-what there is of them-was ruined
 The director of one Nice theater recently decreed that he would discharge any girl who spent her days on the beach. For two nights his chorus was decreased by seventy-five per cent. Now he has accepted the red paint idea.

Early in the summer, the Bridge port republican organization, con- trolled for year by the late John T. King, returned to the republican state organization, after a ten years War. Edward l.. Kelly, executive secretary to Governor Tumbull, was instrumental in the negotiations lead ing to the reconciliation.
 The Bridgeport and New Haven organizations, combined with Attor- ncy General Frank E. Healy's or ganization in the Seventh Senatorial district formed the backbone of the movement to unseat J. Henry Rora- back as chairman of the republican state central committee, in 1922. That part of the Windham county Sheriff Charles A. Gates of Willi- mantle was also in the fight against Roraback, but it was the first to re- turn to the state organization camp. If the story from New Haven is well-founded, Attorney General Healys organization remains the only formidable non Roraback or ganization in the state today.
 Clarence c. Willard, assistant secretary of the republican state central committee, led movement in New Haven in the spring of 1924 which deprived the Ullmans of con- trol of state central committee members from that city. The Ull- mans came back In the fall caucuses of 1924, however and were successful in several subsequent caucus fights with the Willard group. recovering the last of the ground lost in 1924 when they gre captured all eight of New Haven's seats on the state committee last month

While the Dancing Masters association recently an nounced that the Charleston had at last come into it's own, dance hall propretors rebelled because only few Berliners could dance 1t correctly. The remainder, they said, kicked up their heels so awkwardly that other dancers clothes were ruined, shns were scraped and ankles sprained. Fist fights were frequent So the propretors hung out the well-known sign "Ferboten'' and chased the Charleston to the confines of hotel bathrooms and cabarets.
