FAMILY DENIES
FIRE RESCUE

Policeman John Scheuring. Of the
Twelfth precinct, says he led AIRS.
Alexander Tacconnelli. her husband.
and their three children from their
second floor apartment at 1888
Twelfth st. ". E.. early yesterday;
when the first floor was blazing
and the frame dwelling was filled
with smoke. Mrs. Taconnelh and
her husband say nobody led them
that they came down the steps
themselves. and saw the policeman
only when they got to the street.
But, no matter which version may
be correct, the Tacconnelli family
got to the street in safety and We're
apparently none the worse for their
experience as they worked in their
Rhode Island Avenue delicatessen
shop today.
Mrs Sarah E. Ryan, who owns
the house, and who occupies the
first floor. was not at home at the
time. She doesn't understand how
the fire could have started. She
denies it could have been caused
by an electric iron because, she
said, although she had one, she was
afraid to use 1t. Besides, she says,
she hadn't been in the house since
last Thursday night.

Vardon Frowns On
Too Many Golf
Clubs in Bag

The old golf master. Harry
Vardon. winner of six British
opens and one American open
championship, advises linksmen
not to carry too many clubs.
He calls attention to. the TACT
that when he won his. last open
at Prestwick in 1914 he had
only nine clubs in his bag.
When an unnecessary number of
clubs are carried a situation is
apt to arise wherein the player
finds it difficult to decide for a
certain shot between two clubs
almost identical as to shape and
loft. That condition usually
produces unhappy results.
