Boy Makes Money
Shooting Lions

p BAKERSFIELD, Calf, Aug. 80
TO kill a mountain lion may be
the dream of many a boy but with
Marion Hooper a trip to clty is
.more of thrill than to kill two of
the beasts in a single day.
Hooper, who lives on homestead
in the mountains. was excitedly pre-
pairing for trip to this city. The
preparations were suddenly stopped
when his mother espied lion in the
front yard. Marion carried his rifle
to an upstairs window and killed
the animal A few minutes later
the mother went to the cellar of th2
house and was confronted by an
other lion. Again Marion's gun
barSed and his shot ended the lion s
life. In the afternoon he came to
the city and had good time.
County ana state bounties earned
by Marion that day will total $3.50

HELEN WILLS IS
PICKED AS SURE
FIRE WINNER
Experts Refuse to Give
Betty Nuthall Chance
In Tennis Finals.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3O.-If Tex
Rickard had designed the final
round Of the American Womens
Tennis Championship tournament as
he. sometimes does boxing matches
he could have done no better than
have the natural ehminations in
the tournament.
Today at Forest Hills the same
quality will be present when Miss
Helen Wills of Berkeley, Cal, meets
a little British girl for the tennis
title.
The contest between 'our Helen
and "their Betty Miss Betty
Nuthall of England-wi!l not only
have an element of interest which
any match of tournament partici-
pants would have lacked, but be-
cause of Miss Wills apparent GER
tainty of victory, the international
appeal is almost a "life saver
in sustaining interest.
Miss Nuthall today has all the
best wishes of that element of po-
lite American sportsmaship which
always is willing to give the other
fellow a break but when the bet
ting started "our Heleno was al.
most three to one favorite to win.
Tammany Young, that famous
Broadway actor and gate crasher,
didn't dignity the tennis associa.
ton with his presence during the
semifinal rounds when little Betty
was beating the rich Mrs. Chaplin
and while "our Helen was defeat
ing "Helen the second' of Berke-
ley.
Has No Defense
But the spirit of Tammany Young
was present and that spirit whisper
ed--''that little Nuthali plays ten
mis- like Nick the Greek shoots
craps
Nick the Greek will play yon five
or six grand on the flip of a card
or the turn of a cube and little
Miss Nuthall will take similar
characters on the tennis court.
From what has been seen of her
in this tournament "little Nuthall y
hasn't defense stroke. With
every stroke she takes the hraVado
and the impetuosity Of youth and
shoots for the corners and the lines
where the miscalculations of a frac-
ton of an inch means victory or
defeat. But that "little Nuthall :
took all the chances and fate work
ed with her all through the tourna-
ment.
The experts of the tennis associ
alton, sitting near the press box
said later today Miss Nuthal'

GUARD SQUADR0NS
TO GET A|RPLANES
War Department to Refit
Units With Modern A.
Purpose Ships.

Steps were taken by the War De-
partment today for refitting National
Guard squadrons throughout the
United States with airplanes of mod
ern construction, especially adapted
TO the use Of such orga nizat tons. AS
a result of recent competition for such
planes, contracts will be made with
the Douglas Airplane Co. of Santa
Monica. Calf: the keystone Aircraft
Co. of Bristol, Pa, and the Curtiss
Airplane and Motor Co. of Garden
City, Long Island.
The requirements for which designs
Were submitted by these companies
are for a light-powered two-seater of
an all-around, all-purpose type which
can be used by the National Guard
squadrons in flying training, in fixed
gunnery training, in flexible gunnery
training, for an observer in radio and
Photographic training and for cross
country flying.
The motive power will be a Wright
is motor. which has achieved so much
flights. The wartime planes used in
the last few years by the National
Guard are being salvaged and are
now being replaced by the training
planes used by the Army Air Corps
at Its flying schools and by a very
limited number of the service type
observation planes of the Army.
AS the work OF the National Guard
is mainly of intrastate nature and
does not demand long cruising radius
nor arrangement for complete war
TIME military load. the technical sec.
ton Of the Army Air Corps recently
called for bids for a type of plane to
suit those particular needs-one
lighter in general characteristics than
the service type Of planes now used
in the ARM Air Corps units, yet
heavier than the primary training
planes used at Brooks and Kelly
Fields.
Officers of the National Guard
squadrons generally await the receipt
of the new planes with enthusiasm
for the possibilities in the scope of
their training programs.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. August "a.
The Chattanooga News says today
that Lawrence s. Ashley furnished
one of its staff correspondents con-
vincing proof that he actually was
imprisoned in Nick -a.Jack cave last
week. o. p. Pile, State mine inspec.
tor, had reported to Gov. Peay that
in his opinion Ashley was not lost
in the cave but that the entire affair
was a hoax for publicity purposes.
Ashley took the News correspondent
on tour of the cave and he reported
that he was shown a new cave and
also was led to the point where Ash
ley claimed to have dug himself out
Sunday morning after having been in
the cave week. The correspondent
said he not only found footprints to
show proof of Ashley's story, but that
they bore marks of the peculiarly
fashioned steel cleats of Ashley's
shoes.
The account said that Ashley fur
nished almost positive proof" of his
story and added that he was very
modest in his efforts to furnish proof
