TORONTO. Ontario. July BRO
nance and training for a marathon
swim do not mix, George Young, youth
full Toronto aquatic star, has found.
So he's going to abandon affairs of the
heart for the time being.
1t all came about when Young. who
gained fame when he won the Catalina
marathon last year. found that strenu-
Gus training for the marathon to be
held by the Canadian national exhibit
ton here September was interfering
with his counting of the young lady
of his choice. Training, therefore, went
by the board
This led to an ultmatum from
Youngs millionaire hacker. Teddy Oke.
and his trainer. Johnny Walker, that
they would withdraw their support
unless Young paid strict attention to
training at his camp at Port Credit
a short distance from Toronto.

TWO GIRLS CARRY HOPES
OF DANES IN OLYMPlCS

BY the Associated Press
No Danish male has been found
worthy of representing his country
at the Olympic games this year.
On the shoulders OF two young
girl swimmers, therefore. rest the
sole Danish hopes for honorable
mention at Amsterdam.
They are Else Jacobsen and
Agnete Olsen. Critics say they
should prove formidable competi-
tors to amateur swimmers of any
nationality. So the Danish Olympic
committee Is backing them TO its

Ammonium Sulphate Is useful STUN TO
have around these days of exposure of
putting greens to brown patch. But
the mixing of ammonium sulphate has
always been rather a tedious process
until Dick Watson, the versatile green's
keeper at Indian Spring. hit upon a way
to mix it without much trouble and
spread it on the green's with no effort.
The water for the greens at Indian
Spring comes from well near the pond
at the seventh hole. So Watson mixed
in a lot Of ammonium sulphate with the
water and now throws the mixture on
the greens. The acid is the most ettec-
tive treatment known for brown patch.

BEST,FLU CURE
is UNDER BAN,
PHYSICIAN SAYS
Whisky Was Best Remedy
in Great Epidemic,
MCKane Asserts.

Indiana prohibits by law the use
of the one remedy found most help
full during the war years in halting
the epidemic of influenza.
That remedy, in the opinion OF
DR.. w. H. McKane, director OF the
bureau of communicable diseases of
the state health department., was
whisky.
His opinion is based on expert
ence as director of two government
hospitals during 1917 and 1918, when
the "flu" was making the greatest
ravages.
cat that time there was govern
ment regulation of whisky pur-
chases, amounting almost to prohi-
bition," DR.. McKane stated. "Yet
when the influenza epidemic reached
its height I Communicated all the
whisky available and used it when
ever 1 deemed it beneficial"
"It took cash to get it and was
given 'the money by the Red Cross
10 make GII6 pu4CAIdoOo'
Law Bans Prescribing
Under the Indiana law, of course,
no doctor is allowed to prescribe
whisky for influenza or aught else.
So whether one thinks it beneficial
or not, it is out of the question"
The law whereby whisky is for
bidden for sale or prescription is
the Wright "bone-dry' law, an
Aati-Saloon League fostered piece
of dry legislation.
Under it's provisions, no drug
store or doctor can handle whisky
for any purpose.
The idea of legislators curbing the
doctors and debating what they
shall or shall not prescribe as medi-
cine was censured severely by DR..
Frank w. Cregor, Hume-Mansur
building, when he retired as presl-
dent of the Indiana Medical Asso-
citation.
This feeling also was expressed
by DR.. Chester A. Stayton, Bankers
Trust building, secretary Of the
Marion County Medical Association.
Doctor Opposes Whisky
But DR.. George R. Daniels, pres
ent president of the state associa-
ton, asserts that he is a "dry" and
opposes whisky for any purpose and
upholds the legislative viewpoint.
He is in politics at Marion, having
served as mayor.
Attorney General Arthur L. Gil
liom in 1927 wrote a letter to Gov
ernor Ed jackson directing atten-
ton to the use OF whisky in saving
Mrs. Jackson's life and urged the
Governor to ask modification of the
state dry law to permit prescrip-
ton whisky.
The whisky had been procured
sub rosa, in violation Of the law,
from Gilliom, who had used it in
saving the lives of his children dur
ing a severe illness.
Increasing outspokenness of civic
leaders against the Anti-Saloon
League, both in Indiana and nation
ally, may result in some change in
the drastic Wright law being pro-
posed at the coming legislative ses-
sion, some doctors hope.

ROBERT G. HOUSTON
TELLS OF CONGRESS
IN ACTION

Congressman Robert G. Houston
gave an interesting talk before the
Faculty Club of the University of
Delaware in the lounge room on
Monday night on Congress in Ac-
tion." Members of the senior class Of
Delaware College were also hosts of
the Faculty Club and all enjoyed the
talk by Congressman Houston.
DR.. E. B. Crooks, president of the
club, presided and introduced the
speaker. Mr.. Houston in an interest
ing way gave word sketch of the
work of Congress from the time a
bill is introduced until it is finally
passed by the two houses.
Congressman Houston said during
the course of his talk that sooner or
later because of their enormous
populations the cities of the coun-
try will be a potent influence on all
questions of Congress and at the
present time six or seven of the
large industrial states practically
dominate Congress in caucus. He ex-
planned how the committees of the
House are made up and said mem
bers who are on the major commit
tees serve only on one committee be-
cause of the great volume of work
they are required to do. There are
81 members of the House commit
tees and they are divided into sub
committees and these committees
conduct the hearings on bills, etc.,
and report back to the main COM
mittee.
The speaker said after bills have
been finally considered and there
seems no objection to them he has
known as many as 20 to be passed
in one bunch by unanimous consent.
One single objection however would
have the effect of holding over any
particular bill and the enXt time that
particular bill gets on the unan1-
NOUS calendar it would take objec-
tions of three members to stop its
passage. He said the regular calen-
dar of the House has not been reach
ed for Is years. Last session of the
House there were $4,000 bills intro !
duced. i
Congressman Houston said no bill
ever goes to the Senate from the
House without that dignifed body /
amending it and that House MEM !
bers in debate are not permitted to
make any reference to either the
Senate or Senators by name.
At the conclusion of Congressman
speech there was a gener-
al discussion and the speaker was
asked and answered a number of
ouastions nertainine tn Congress-.
