Gun Battle Described.
Cornett said Fisher got out of the
car and approached the farmhouse
Just as Gunlach said something which
was inaudiolc and Fisher replied,
Don't shoot. old man: we're Federal
agents" to which Gunlach replied, Il
don't give a dam Gunlach advanced
about 10 yards from the house. Fisher
continued to within about 40 feet of
Gunlach. with Cornett following him.
At this point Gunlach fired wounding
Fisher in the knee. Cornett, unarmed
went back of the corn-crib at the
point where Brewer was in conceal
ment. He then retreated to the back
of the car.
Cornett testified that Fisher was
firing from where he had fallen and
then ceased. He said that Gunlach
was staggering backward toward the

many times he travelled up and down

sions of the house of burgesses at old
Williamsburg.
In these last mentioned journeys he
often crossed into Maryland, to recross
again into Virginia and vice versa, to
avoid the mud and heavy going of the
old Potomac path down the west bank
of that river. The Journeys to Will
liamsburg, from Mount Vernon, by way
of fredericksburg or Port Tobacco,
Maryland, were made so many times
that it is regrettable that none of the
old inns, or "ordinaries," at which
Washington was wont to stay, have
survived. The state of Virginia is now
earnestly at work upon a system of
markers, or tablets, for it's historic
spots and the locations of the more i'm
portant, at least, of these hostelries
will, doubtless, be fixed as a result;
but as the buildings themselves disap-

small likelihood that authentic pic

defeat, the story of which has filed
many a page of history in the 173
years since it occurred From the
Braddock Orderly Book is taken
Washington's laconic report on that
disaster as follows:
July 9, Wednesday. Monongahela,
near Fort Duquesne:
On the 9th, l attended him Grad
dock) on horseback, though very
weak and low. On this day he was
attacked, and defeated by a party of
French and Indians, adjudged not to
exceed 800. When all hope of rally
ing the dismayed troops and recover
ing the ground was expired (our pro-
visions and stores being given up) I
was orered to DunbarS camp.
A few days later he writes from
Fort Cumberland to John Augustine
Washington:
AS ] have heard, since my arrival
at this place, a circumstance account
of my death and dying speech, I take
this early opportunity of contradicting
the first and of assuring you that L
have not as yet composed the latter.
What a chance was lost there to
anticipate by more than a century
Mark Twain's celebrated epigram
about the news of his death being
greatly exaggerated" But it could
not be expected that Washington,
with the scenes of that carnival of
blood still fresh in his mind, would
be inclined to comment upon such a
report with any degree of whimsical
humor. Instead his thoughts on the
matter were far different in tone,
and they suggest the possibility OF
his having some strangely prophetic
vision of the destiny that awaited
him when he continued his letter with
these words:
By the all powerful dispensations of
Providence, have been protected be-
yond human probability and expecta-
ton; for ] had four bullets through
my coat, and two horses shot under
me, yet escaped unhurt, although
death was leveling my companions on
every side of me.
And there are those who agree as
to the "dispensation of Providence"
who believe that IL the bullet which
killed Edward Braddock, the British
general, had struck down instead a
young colonial named George Wash
ington, the history Of the United
States would have been vastly differ
ent.

Lefty O'Doul Is Back

Frank O'Doul's coming tryout with
the New York Giants will be watched
with much interest by all followers
of baseball. He is coming back as an
outfelder with a good chance of stick
ing this time, almost ten years after
his first opportunity to become ma
jor Lacquer.
O'Doul was pitcher when the YAM
KEGS brought him up and he had all
the mannerisms of great ball player
Miller Higgins insisted that O'Doul
did not take his baseball seriously
enough and that his pitching was not
of major league grade.
Later O'Doul was with the Red Sox
and two years ago the Cubs took him
on option, but Joe Mccarthy turned
him back to the Coast. Last season
ODoul starred in the outfeld, at the
bat, ON the bases, and, in fact, was
an alI-around star. He won honors as
the most valuable player in the Coast
league.

GLIB TONGUE IS
NEWEST WEAPON
Some Men Consider Verbal
Strategy Legitimate Golf.

Modern psychology has invaded
golf. And with it rises new menace
to the susceptible amateur-the haz-
ard of the glib tongue.
Regardless of respective abilities
the exponent of this Twentieth GEN.
fury mesmerism is likely to triumph
over an unguarded opponent, says
Harold Ell. Hilton, former British
open and amateur champion, writing
in January American Golfer.
Mr.. Hilton is veteran of many
golf campaigns. In his long career he
has engaged adversaries of every kid
ney, and that includes some of the
smoothest links-talkers that have ever
tortured nervous men.
The practice of conversational golf
is not new, as anyone who has fol-
lowed the game ruefully knows, but
applied psychology has given to it
subtle and perilous reinforcement.
"One of my earliest experiences in
championship golf," Mr.. Hilton said,
twas when l had to meet a very ex-
perienced, middle-aged player. On
form | should have defeated him and
/ really did think / would. He beat
me-or perhaps it would be better to
say l beat myself
"When l came in, very sick and
sorry golfer, an old-time player re-
marked, We'll, | am surprised that he
beat you, Harold. Did he talk you
out of it.? Then it suddenly dawned
on me that he had. That was my
first lesson in the art of propaganda,
but l have had many lessons since"
Now Mr.. Hilton's motto is "fore-
warned forearmed," and he simply
doesn't listen to anything that is said
to him. The former champion tells of
a peculiarly sinister golf psychologist
who wins his matches from ADLER men
by discussion of their grips on the
club.
This Machiavelli, when the match
is nearing home, suddenly asks his
adversary if he hasn't changed his
grip.
mo, | don't think l have" is the
dubious reply.
But surely you used to hold the
club this way"
He demonstrates, and for minute
or two the victim shifts his fingers
into various experimental positions.
His next tee shot is topped. So is the
next. And the third shot almost
inevitably will be sliced.
Many men, says the American Golf
er article, consider verbal strategy a
legitimate part of their game Forty
and fifty years ago, he admits, GER
tain degree of license was more or
less recognized. While there is at
present no rule forbidding this prac-
tice the Britisher sets his mind firmly
against it.

Long-Distance Drive Is
Error of Manv Golfers

The worst peril to the average
golfer is the temptation of distance.
He feels that he must hit the ball
hard to make it travel-and the result
is often that he loses the rhythm of
his stroke.
Co-ordinating power with the
rhythm, says the American Golfer, is
the trick that one must learn to
achieve maximum driving. Correct
form is essential. But the emphasis
on distance, even so, is often over
stressed.
The outstanding difference between
the good amateur and the profess
s;ional, says Vivien Doran, author of
the article, is that the professionals
consistency from the tee offsets the
amateurs frequent superiority on the
green. The reason for this is simply
that the money player doesn't take his
tee shot too seriously. He knows the
distance he can make, and what little
advantage his opponent may have in
that department he will attempt to
offset by more careful approach shots.
