WALTER HAGEN In LEAD
in DEFENSE OF TITLE

CHICAGO, Sept. 8, P-Walter
Hagen today duplicated his practice
round of par 70 and took the lead
at the end of the first round in de-
fense Of his title as western open
golf champion.
Hagen was exact par on both
mines of No. 4 course of Olympia
Fields club, which was one stroke
better than the next best score,
shared by Frank Walsh of Appleton,
Wis. Dick Grout of Okmulgee and
Eddie Murphy of Chicago.
There were two other perfect
scores, however, Tommy Armour of
washington, American and Can
adian open champion and AL Wat
rous, Of Grand Rapids scoring 72
each on No. course, whose par
is two strokes higher than that Of
NO 4.
Chick Evans, playing with Armour
and keeping up his recent recovery
from long slump, got 73 going
one above par on four holes and
bagging three brides. Hagen's par on
the second nine was matched by
Gene Sarazen, as Evans tied Ar
nour's par on the homeward lap,
but the former national champion
took 38 to reach the turn

ing planned for tomorrow, Gene prob
ably will wear an eye protector of
special design to guard against re-
opening of the wound. The cham
pion, as a rule, never wears the GUS
tomary leather helmet of the training
ring.
Gene devoted the day to books and
golf after rising late in the morning.
A heavy thunder storm that swept
down through the chain of lakes about
the training site failed to disturb his
slumbers, although the club house
shook and trees nearby were shattered
by lightning.
Several Chicago heavyweights, due
to appear today to swell the trio of
sparring partners who have been TAX

rive and a searching party headed for
the windy city to have them on hand

four pitchers for 16 hits, the Chicago
Cubs took the final game OF the SER

day, IL to T. and went back into
third place in the tight National
league pennant race.
The CUBS now are leading the Cards

teams got an even break on the series.
This was the 25th victory Of the
season for Charley Root, who kept the
Cardinals hits well scattered except in
the fifth and seventh. Soluble hit a
homer with one in the fifth.
Nehf relieved Root in the ninth
after he had allowed single and
walk. Nehf allowed another walk, fill
ing the bases with none out. The
rally was cut short with two runs,
however, when Bottomley forced
Adams, Frisch sacrificed and Douthit
struck out.
Every Cub got at least one hit while
seven got two hits each. Both of Hack
Wilson'S safeties were triples.

QUEEN MARIE is
81 YEARS Old;
HAS QUIET DAY
Watches Political Turmoil
From Background; Mar
rage Talked.

BUCHAREST, Oct. 29.-The lone
Hest queen in Europe celebrated her
flfty-second birthday today.
Pushed to the background of pub
lie attention while her grandson,
6-year-old King Michael, occupies
the throne his father, Prince Carol
is seeking, Queen Marie spent her
birthday dreaming of the great adj
venture that started 35 years ago,
when she married Ferdinand, and
which ended recently on his death.
Helene Has More Power
Her birthday was a quiet one for
Queen Marie, as the whole of Ru-
mania is specializing on the signifi-
canoe of the moves of Prince Carol
to regain the throne he renoCnced
year ago.
No longer does Queen Marie have
the prestige, or even the right to
claim the power which she held so
firmly one year ago today. Her
daughter-in-law, Princess Helene of
Greece-the mother of 6-year-old
King Michael-is now far more pow
erful than Marie in the affairs Of
Rumania.
On the other hand, there is none
who ever attempt to claim that
Marie is not interested in her
adopted country, and it can even be
said that she is by far the most cap
able queen left in Europe.
During the prolonged illness of
the late King Ferdinand, Marie
took the affairs Of state into her
own hands and ran things as she
thought without fear or favor
to politicians or parties-and in the
end was generally acclaimed sue
cess.
In fact it has been said that dur
ing the last few years that Ferdi-
nand was king, it was not actually
his reign, but "Marie's Reign" and
will probably go down in history as
such.
Marriage Rumored
There have been a number of ru-
mors and reports that Marie is Co.
templating marriage again.
How far these reports can be &C
cepted as within the realms of pos
sibility cannot be said, but it has
more than once been limited that
Marie might look with favor upon a
suit of-an English or American mil
lionaire.
Marie's recently reported declara-

SIX EMPLOYEES

SET TO START
Goal of S722,8OO Must Be
Reached, Marmon Tells
Workers.

More than 500 men and women
attended the pre-campaign dinner
for workers in the six employees di-
visions Of the Indianapolis Com
munity Fund organization Friday
night at the Claypool.
Walter c. Marmon, general chair
man of the executive committee,
urged workers to make the goal set
by the fund this year. In the last
years Indianapolis has been i'm
proving but has not yet reached the
quota set, he said.
Budget Not Padded"
"The goal is $722, 300. 1t repre-
Sents the actual needs of thirty
eight agencies which share in the
fund" he said. MANY persons be-
lieve the budget is guessed at, and
in order to get what we really need,
we lust add several thousands to the
quota to be sure and get what is
needed. But this is all wrong. Ex-
perts study the needs of each agency
and fix the budget. This is then
passed on by the superintendent and
nally by the executive board of the
Community Fund" he said.
Robert Bryson, chairman of the
public utilities division, told of the
organization among public employ
es. and urged the members of his
division to do their utmost to make
their sections 100 per cent unit.
Chairmen Are Ready
"Our plans were completed and
things looked promising for a 100
per cent drive in our DIVISION" he
said. Today it is different. Salar-
les of teachers. policemen, firemen
and other public employees are be-
ing held up. But despite all the
obstacles, the public employees will
meet their quota. Just as soon as
the city treasurer honors vouchers
for salary checks, we will begin to
measure up to the standard" he
said.
George Terrence, chairman of the
railroad division, announced he is
completing plans for race among
the various railroad companies to
see which one will report 100 per
cent first. Chairmen of the four
other divisions explained their plans,

U. S. EVIDENCE
NEAR CLOSE IN
OIL DEAL TRIAL
Government Is Expected to
Finish Case Tuesday,;
Recess Today.
BY HERBERT LITTLE
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-With
the Governments conspiracy case
against Former Secretary of the In
terror Albert B. Fall and Harry F.
Sinclair virtually completed after
two weeks of evidence, the trial re-
sulting from the lease of Teapot
Dome Naval Reserve today was in
recess until Monday.
Prosecutor Owen Roberts plans to
call Robert w. Stewart, chairman,
Standard Oil Company of Indiana,
as the last witness on the Con-
tinental Trading Company phase of
the indictment, seeking to show
Sinclair passed 230,500 in Liberty
Bonds to Fall.
United States to Close Tuesday
Stewart may testify on Govern
ment charge which so far has not
been established by eyewitness
testimony" That is, that Sinclair
was a Continental stakeholder, and,
thus, in a position to receive certain
profits in Liberty Bonds traced to
Falls possession.
Afterward, the Government will
present evidence dealing with SIN
clair's admitted loan of $4,000 in
Liberty Bonds to Fall in 1928, after
Fall retired from the Cabinet. The
Government charges this loan was a
part of the conspiracy to defraud
the Government.
The Government probably will
close it's case Tuesday, and the de-
Tense will start at once with a
notable array of witnesses.
Resume Story of Contract
Charles w. Thomas, former
Colorado Senator and Governor, will
return to the stand Monday to re-
sumo his story of the conference of
oil chiefs in New York in November,
1921, on the day when the Con-
tinental Company signed contracts
to buy 1888, 1888 barrels of oil at
$3.50 and selling it to Sinclair and
Standard companies at SITS.
Thomas, as attorney for the late A.
E. Humphreys, oil producer, was
present and wrote the contracts.
Sinclair, Stewart, James O'Neil and
Harry M. Blackmer, were among
those present.
A battle started at adjournment of
the trial yesterday will be resumed
Monday, over a defense attempt to
ascertain from Thomas Whether his
first draft of the Humphreys con-
tract provided for sale direct to the
Sinclair and Standard companies.

new TURKEY IS
4 YEARS. old
Celebrates WeSterniZation
and Birthday.

ANGORA, Oct. 29.-Turkey is to-
day celebrating two anniversaries;
the proclamation of the republic,
and the beginning of the nations
dissemination. Both occurred Oct.
20, 1923.
Mustapha Renal Pasha, the first
president of the new Turkish repub-
lie, led the way to both happenings.
His activities resulted in revolution
airy changes which are generally be-
ing inaugurated throughout the
country.
Soon after the one-time Ottoman
empire was proclaimed a republic,
century-old Turkish traditions were
altered and gradually numerous i'm
portant changes were made III some
of the oldest customs of the East.
Throughout the today-which was
declared a national holiday-the en-
tire country is celebrating not only
the fourth anniversary of the repub-
lie, but also the satisfactory contin-
uance of Turkeys dissemination.

WF,BlN and The Times VIII Broadcast
First Bridge by Radio Game Tuesday

hearing their comments and rea-
sons for each bid and play as it is
made. Listeners-in should have four
players and a pack of cards ready
for the opening of the game. Thou
sands of enthusiasts have set aside
Tuesday night especially for the
bridge games and no other appoint
ment or engagement will be per-
mitted to interfere with the broad
cast.
The games appeal not only to the
seasoned player, but also to begin
ners eager to improve their game,
for by listening to the games as
broadcast they actually may play
with Americas best players.
Bridge by radio was first put on
the air three years ago and has
gained in popularity until it has
become the established feature OF
leading stations and newspapers
such as The Times.
One Of the interesting features is
that advance hands will appear in
The Times previous to the broad
casting Of the game. BY this means,
bridge players are able to play the
game in their own way and then
compare their judgment with that
of the experts.
Interest in foreign countries has
been especially keen, as many let
tiers are received asking that re-
prints of the game be mailed to
them. Among the countries heard
from are England, France, Spain,
Russia, China, India, Scotland, Ire
land, Hawaiian Islands and Alaska.
Quite a number of letters we're re-
ceived from ships in the Pacific and
Atlantic waters.
