Against the such ambitious chal-

the younger school stands Jim
Barnes, former holder of both the
United States and British champion
ships. veteran of 20 years cam
paigning. Long Jim doesn't play as
much tournament golf as he did
few years back, but he can still score

and, strangely enough. he is likely
to be in his happiest mood when the
rest of the field is Tuning and fret.
ting.
That was the case at Columbia in
1921, when he won the champion
ship. The putting greens on this
Washington course were almost
burned to cinders. Putting on them
was almost like putting on an as
phalt street. Everybody was wall.
ing over the conditions except
Barnes. He decided to play with
the green's and not fight them and
he walked in. Most of the field

again. He has cracked up his

championships by a single bad
round, and he may do it in Chicag go.
But If the mood strikes him right
he may win.
Here's another veteran performer.
at least he is somewhat older than
most of the leading tournament
stars of the day, though he hasn't
played in great many champion
Shins That's why when he won
at Worcester 1925, he caused
quite a surprise. But those who
knew him were not surprised; they
were aware that he had all the
shots needed to win championship
in his bag. 1t was merely mat
ter of not being overly interested IN
tournament play.

about an even bet against any
man in the field. He's almost
always straight on the line and
his short game is wonderful. 1t
is a good bet that he will get as
many twO's ON the short holes
as any other man in the field.
He is a good steady putter, and
he can drive far enough on, any
course, but these long marathon
layouts keeps him smuggling so
strenuously that he is likely to tire
before the end of " holes. Fur.
thermore. he is rather frail in de.
sign, and again, he is no beardless
youth.
If Bobby Jones had not decided
to show up for the British open in
1925. Al Watrous would have
grabbed the title. He was second
on the list. just two strokes back OF
Jones. That's probably the biggest
thing Watrous has ever done, But
he has led the field in a good many
cases. for instance, in the winter
campaigns of the last few years.

He is shooting with the whole works
this year. Already he and Gene
Sarazen have been in Chicago sew
eral days, practicing over the Olym.
pic Fields course. Furthermore,
Farrell. in passing up go at the
British championship in May, had
in mind the fact that good
long rest between times would do
hir more good than a trip abroad.
Last year. following a deVasta-

course in physical training. and
then went out and did the un-

SIX out Of seven tournaments.
He recently went through
similar course Of training. so
he viii hit the Olympic Fields
in fine trim physically.
Farrelrs game has improved
steadily over the last three years,
AS the boys say. he has frightened
up his swing quite a bit, and the
process has cut out any mechanical
weakness in his style of play. He
is one of the finest of putters, Tos.
sibly the best of the field at holing
long ones. Any time he gets within
putting range he is going for the
cup to hole the ball. not merely
to lay it dead. and he gets q
surprisingly large number of these
long ones.
He stilI has that little finch
which handicaps the player who is
bidding strongly for the top. But
he is more confident now than in
any previous year.
Given two things, Leo Diegel
may easily win at Olympia Fielc:,
The first is that he happens to be
in one of his good moods, and the
other that some kind spirit whisper

is of an exceedingly nervous and

He came within an ace of win

times since that if he had little
more experience in tournament
play he would have won.

BRU SSELS. Oct. 13.-Belgium is tired of it's historic position as the Battlefield of Europe and the government party is trying to re-organize the army so as to make impossible a repetition of the de- baele of 1914. But the government is making slight headway.
 Some liberals criticize the gov 'erament plan as taking no ac- count of aerial warfare and guar anteeing no protection from gas attacks from across the frontier The socialists have mustered such opposition that their campaign ol obstruction almost forced a disso- lution of parliament.
 The Liberal-Catholic government after the advice of a technical com mlttee submitted to parliament a reorganization plan which the minister for national defense Count de Broquaville, outlined in the following terms:
 "The Eastern border tfacina Germany will be covered by one cayaliy regiment, one regiment of cyclists. five regiments of infan- try. including Is companies of ma chine gunnsrs and two battallons of divisional machine gunners

"MiCHAEL STROGOFF'
 , SHOWING AT PALACE

7 Through the current presenta- tion of Michael Strogoff," the Universal-Film de France produc- tlon now playing at the Palace Theatre, an interesting question has arisen regarding the represen- .tation by an actor not of character. but of racial or national charac- terlstics. In other words-could an American actor give to the purely Russian characters of Mich : ael Strogoff or. Ivan Moskine and M. Chakatouny, respectively? Their finished performances ceretainly blend into this truly Russian pie ture in manner that leaves noth- ing to be desired, and off hand it is difficult to think of an Ameri- can who would please equally. On the other hand their performance is no more striking than the mar velous characterization of M. De- ifas as the Grand Khan of Tartary, who is the barbaric Oriental ruler to the life. Great acting. one is led to conclude, is great acting, and knows no limitations or race, ,1fbr when presented On the screen, Of language either.

HAIR TRIGGER BAXTER" AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

]. A man whose gun play wins the respect and admiration of the en- tire population in tough western town, is the story of Hair Trigger Baxter" an FRO. production star ring Bob Custer which will be khown at the Coliseum tonight. Tn this picture, Custer not only has a chance to do some of his intimitable riding, but for the first time he is given role which does Justice to his shooting ability. The Story calls for some remarkable gun play and Custer proves equal to the most difficult shots. Aside from the gun and riding thrills, the picture offers a charming TO- nance in which the lovely Eugen- la Gilbert plays the role of a maiden in genuine distress. The cast also includes such favorites as Lew Meehan, Murdock McGuar- rie, Fanny Ridgely, Jim Corey, Err nie Adams and Hugh Saxon.

Decision by the Government to

Muscle Shoals will put $4,000 into
the pocket OF Lindley M. Garrison,
Newton D. Bakers predecessor as
Secretary OF War in the Wilson
Cabinet.
This fact became known today,
when Comptroller General McCarl
decided on the question OF payments
TO Garrison for his services as ar
bitrator between the Federal Gov.
eminent and the American Cyanamid
Company, regarding the rate OF roy
altses I'd be paid the company on
its patents, which the Government
holds under license.
The Government acquired the
patents for use at Muscle Shoals,
and In an agreement with the com
panS, consented to leave the matter
Of the royalty rates to an arbitra-
tioh meeting. A special appropria.
ton OF $4,000 was made by Con
gress for this meeting.
A balance OF SIS, 900 is to be paid
the arbitrator on final settlement
OF the royalty question. McCarl to-
day ruled that such settlement could
not be made until the Government

the patents at Muscle Shoals.
