RAIL EMERGENCY ENDS.


BY the Associated Press.
Emergency orders issued by the
Interstate Commerce Commission last
May at the onset of the Mississippi
flood to allow railroads to meet con-
ditions were withdrawn today by the
commission. Railroad service through
out the flood area will consequently
hereafter be conducted on a normal
basis.
The principal object of the flood
service order was to allow the diver.
sion of traffic from flooded lines. Until
today, railroads have held the power
to divert shipment into or through the
food territory to any route that might
be convenient, without regard to the
direction of shippers. From now on
the usual practices as to routing will
obtain.

son as Angelus Temple. buzZing with
dissensiOn and strife. awaited the ar
rival today of the evangelist from
Alton, III.
A rift in the large congregation was
revealed recently when Mrs. Kennedy.
mother of the evangelist and manager
OF the temple, charged irregularities
in the collection of contributions.
Publication of telegram and let
ter from Mrs. Mcpherson yesterday
was interpreted by many of her fol-
lowers to indicate dissention between
the evangelist and her mother.
Showdown Is Anticipated.
With both temple factions insisting
the evangelist is on their side and
displaying letters and kilograms to
prove it, a showdown was antici-
pated at a mass meeting called by her
for tonight.
The call for the mass meeting was
made in a telegram from the evange-
list, which also ordered cancellation
OF preparations for a gigantic recep-
ton for her planned by her mother.
The telegram, addressed to Rev. G.
A. Jaynes. pastor of the Riverside
branch of the temple, and who claims
to be the California representative of
the absent evangelist. was hailed as
a promise of victory by the opponents
of Mrs. Kennedy.
Jaynes predicted that the outcome
of the mass meeting would be COM
plete reorganization of the temple.
with Mrs. Mcpherson enthroned as
leader and dictator of the huge or
ganization. He said that the reor-
ganiZation plans made no place for
Mrs. Kennedy.
Mrs. Kennedy recently announced
her resignation as business manager.
She said she desired a rest.
The telegram was Jaynes' final shot
of the day. Earlier he made public a
letter which he said was written by
Mrs. Mcpherson. in which the evan
selist revealed an amazing condition
of strife among the temple workers,
who stood SO solidly behind her at
the time she faced attacks upon her
story of kidnapping and escape in the
Mexican desert.
Authenticity Is Doubted.
The letter disclosed that Mrs. Nc.
Pherson had started her Eastern re-
vival campaign trip with the idea that
she would "step quietly out" of the
temple. She wrote that she would
rather spend her entire time in the
field rather than fight with her
mother.
Mrs. Kennedy refused to believe
that the letter was written by her
daughter. If it were signed by her it
meant that some one else had written
it and she had signed without con-
sidering it, she said.
Mrs. Mcpherson ended a revival
campaign in Alton to speed west
ward in response to a call, also said
to have been demand" for her re-
turn to her temple.

The streets were packed all along
the line Of march, with the greatest
congestion at City Hall. The police

line Of march and at the East Boston
airport similar casualties were re.
ported and treated at nearby or relief

ARMOUR IS VICTOR
IN CANADIAN OPEN
Washington Player Shoots
288, Nosing Out Smith
by Single Stroke.

BY the Associated Press.
TORONTO, Ontario, August 6.-For
the ninth successive year the Canadian
open golf championship has been
taken by an American player, Tommy
Armour OF Washington. ID. c.. crowd
ing ahead OF crack field today with
- hole total OF 2SS.
Armour, who is also the United
States open champion. wound up the
final 36 holes with % and 20. Two
T3'S marked his first two rounds.
Americans made a sweep of the first
10 places. Heading the Canadian en-
trants was Andy Kay, Lamblon pro
fessional. who finished with 297. Bob
Cunningham Of Toronto, playing on
his home course. was second among
the Dominion contestants with 800.
Macdonald Smith OF Great Neck,
\. Y. the defending champion, MADE
a gallant bid to retain the title and
turned in a brilliant 60 on the maj
round. one stroke better than Armour,
but he was one stroke behind, never
theless, for the T2-hole total, ana hau
to be content with second place.
William Burke. the Greenwlch'
Conn, voungster, landed in third place
with 900.
The next seven to finish:
AL Watrous. Grand Rapids, Mich,
and Johnny Farrell, Mamoroneck, n.
Y, 292: Leo Diegel, White Plains, n.
Y, and Walter Hagen. Pasadena.
Calf, 293: Willie MacFarlane. Tucka-
hoe. n. v, and Joe Turnesa, Elms'
ford. n. y, 294, and Bobby Cruick-
shank, Purchase, n. Y. 295.
The winning score this year was
five strokes higher than Smiths total
last year-71-73 70-2S3. Johnny
Farrell who has been having great
year, finished three notches higher
than he did last year, but he was
stopped in his consecutive winning.
Farrell had won his last six tourna-
mentG.
Smiths. 60 and Armour's 70 and
Burke's 6S were the best scores of
the final round. Par for the course
is 73.
Light Horse Harry Copper, who
tied for the United States open with
Armour. only to lose in the playoff,
took IS on the final IS and finished
with total of 500.

taken is shorter. The open stance,
however, makes the uprightness of the
swing automatic.
AS the club is turned over, at the
top. there should be a backward reach
with it so that the left wrist, at the
TOP of the back swing. will point to-
ward the ball. The left wris. should
not break and go under the shaft.
Keep the left arm in close, as this will
draw the left shoulder around to the
right.
When you hit with the iron so time
the blow that the left wrist and the
shaft will be in line with each other
as the clubhead goes through the ball.
Doing this will make your blow di-
rect hit and will make the ball go
straight.
AS distance to be taken becomes
shorter it Is a good practice to grip
lower down on the leather. ALSO stand
closer to the ball for the short pitches
and other approaches, and, as you
stand UP closer, put the feet cor
rcspondingly closer together.
The feet have considerable to do
with the accuracy of short iron shots.
Be sure you do not have them spread
too far, as it is difficult to control the
club that way. .---- -----------..;-.

BIG FIGHT TO HELP
RAILROADS, HOTELS

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August 6.-Railroads are
anticipating an extra business OF
about half a million dollars because of
the Tunney- Dempsey fight, sympo-
SUM of opinion reveals.
r. NJ. Holt, passenger representa-
tive OF the Pennsylvania lines, said his
road already has applications for spe-
Gals from Philadelphia, Louisville,
Cincinnati and two from New York
and expected to realize at least $50, 900
in revenues from the fight trains.
William r. Dixon of the Milwaukee
road said his company has had suffi-
cient applications to assure four spe-
Gals from Minneapolis and st. Paul
and at least one each from Kansas
City, Omaha. Sioux City, Superior,
Seattle and Butte.
The New York Central and North
western railroads reported heavy de-
mand for extra cars, but would not in
dictate the number of specials they
expected to run.
G. J. Mcclure. representative of the
Western Passenger Association, said
he anticipated no reduced fares.
Hotels also are preparing for heavy
business, with reservations already in
dicating the flood of visitors for the
fight. One hotel reported more than
] 200 applications on file. with others
reporting from 100 to 500.

one short one in the lot, he arrived
at the sixteenth needing ., 4. 4. He
got his 2 ard first and drove per.
fectly to the left in the last effort OF
that heroic battle.
The wind was left to right as George
prepared to play his second.
Just his shot" every one said.
Duncan trusted the wind to bring
his ball around to the green. His
shot appeared perfect, but the wind
played traitor. His ball didn't come
around. IT went into shallow hol-
low at the left of the green 80 yards
from the hole.
At the edge of the green. squatted
in front of the encircling gallery,
Hagen said to friend:
That's strange. l played my sec
ond to that exact spot on my last
round, and ] took 5. Are you sure
he needs a to tie me?"
YES"
1t was tense moment. Hagen
stood up. Then he sat down again.
Duncan Clipped. He was yards
short. He, 100, took as. Hagen was
champion.
But what a marvellous effort! And
what bad luck to have 1t fall short.
Even Hagen would have preferred a
tie and a play-off.

ATLANTA HAS GOLF TRIO
TO BID FOR JONES' TITLE

The younger Gum Is a marvel
around the green's. He still lacks
accuracy and great distance off the
tees. but his approaches and putting
touch compare favorably with the
best in the country.
viii, according to Steward Maiden.
has a remarkable golfing tempera-
ment. He has plenty behind the belt
buckle. and is at his best when the
travelling is hardest. Maiden wants to
give viii another year of wark be-
fore sending him into the national bat
ties. and Atlanta has no fear of what
he will do once he gets there.
Red Carleton. the third of Maiden's
coming stars. is the assistant prOfes
sional at East Lake He still is on the
cheerful side of 20 and was quite an
athlete around Atlanta before taking
up golf as a business.
Carleton Scoring i'm 1O's.
Carleton is playing East Lake con-
sistently in the low 70's and has
game that needs but little combing to
make it flawless. Like Will Gum.
he will be coming out within g season
or 50 and Bob Jones may find some
homemade opposition in the national
open.
Jones is taking r.&tters easy with
the national amateur only a short dis
lance away. Bobby has his game in
hand once more and there is little ques-
ton of what he will do at Minikahda.
where another Jones-Von Elm battle
is likely to decide the championship
now that Jess Sweetser has passed UP
resuming national competition for
another year.
Jones always will be the great hero
to Atlanta. bu5 the citizens of that
golf-wild city confidently look forward
to a few more thrills when Bobby
finally retires to the comparative quiet
of the courtroom and leaves the fair
ways and bunkers to the great Gums.
