WETHERED STANCE
GIVES STABILITY
BY SOL METzGER.

Although not the ranking British
amateur champion, Roger Wethered
is almost as outstanding overseas
as is Bobby Jones in America. His
record is full of triumphs over Amer
lean invaders. Had it not been for
the mishap of stepping on his ball
during the British open of 1921, he
would have taken that title.
Wethered's iron game is quite diff
ferent from the orthodox iron play
of Americans. Yet he yields in no
way to them. Note his wide stance,
slightly open, and compare it to that
used by the Americans during the
coming Walker Cup matches. Roger
says it gives him firmness and that
in playing irons the legs from the
hips down should feel as though inn
beded in a concrete wall. He likes
to see the back of his left hand when
gripping an iron.
Wethered plays three types of
iron shots: IA clean hit that
takes no turf and that runs and runs
and runs. It's the shot most of us
mistake for an iron. "A long, low
approach that has considerable bite
and runs about Is feet. "a mashie
pitch with much bite that differs
in method from the usual pitch over

Report No Record
Against Man Here

An illustration fo the patience and
care that is necessary in the work
of protecting the public from criminals
is shown in letter received yester-
day by Deputy Sheriff o. A. Ash who
has charge Of the finger print bureau
for the Cochise county sheriff's Of
flee.
The letter came from the authori-
ties at Sydney, Australia and stated
that there was no record there to
show that Harry j. Lehr was wanted
in New South Wales on charge OF
murder This came in reply to a
query sent out by Ash some months
ago when Lehr was arrested here.
When Lehr was arrested he talked
very freely to other inmates of the
city jail and told some of them that
he was bad man and was wanted
in Aupstralia for murder. The other
prisoners, being convinced that Lehr
was a bad man, carried the informa-
ton to the deputy who, doubling it,
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-03-10

but willing to be convinced, sent fin
gerprints and a general description
OF the man to the Sydney officers.
Lehr was jailed here charged with
destruction of public property He
had fought an officer and had broken
some of the windows at the city hall
He was giant of man and claimed
to be a sand hog. A sand hog is a
man who works at tunnelling under
rivers where compressed air is used
to hold off the waters and the men
work under a high pressure
At the time Lehr was arrested he
created much interest because of his
remarkable ability to secure large
quantities of food by simply talking
grocers, butchers and bakers out of
supplies The man, enlisted two or
three other tramps as assistants, would
walk down business street and
Golicit coffee, potatoes canned goods,
bread and meat s,t the various stores
until his assistants would be carrying
sack loads of provisions on their backs.
Lehr was tatooed from head to
foot and an attempt to connect him
with man wanted in London, On
tario, for murder was made. The
Inscription of the man wanted there
was that of tatooed man but the
marks were different on Lehr from
those in the description.

BOOSTS ARIZONA
CATTLE INDUSTRY

TOMBSTONE, March 9--(Special to
The DiSpatch) Referring to business
conditions in Arizona, especially those
which relate to the livestock industry,
the remarks of Charles A. Whitehead,
made at the recent national polled
Hereford show at DeS Moines, Iowa,
attracted attention.
Mr.. Whitehead who operates ranch
at Sulphur Spring valley which has a
herd of registered Herefords, was a
representative of Cochise county at
the Des Moines meeting. Speaking at
the meeting he said among other
things:
Cattle conditions in Arizona are
about as favorable at the present time
as they have been in many years. Feed
is plentiful even in the desert Sec
tions; cattle are in excellent condition
and prices are satisfactory: on the
whole cattlemen are enjoying a taste
OF prosperity. Of course some of the
cattlemen are still feeling the effect OF
three years of drouth which effected
practically the entire state and was
especially, hard on the herds in the
desert area. Some of them still have
to ask their bankers before they can
buy new bulls, but on the whole con-
ditions are very much improved
Recently there have been sales in
Cochise county of high grade Here
ford calves and short yearlingS at SAT
and $50. OF course, they had plenty
of quality, as Arizona, where Here
fords are very much in the majority
amcng beef cattle, is noted for the
high quality Of its herds. 1t is a great
cattle country with Gnama grass up
to the stirups" @ Ng{
While in Des Moines MIR. Whitehead

PINCH BAR MAN

connected with the Aqua Prieta power
plant because they secured their con-
cession," said he. "They simply die
what they had a legal right to de
and what has always been a common
custom in the United States Until
we had the utility commissions that
was general rule. I've been con-
fronted with it many times. But the
utility commission idea removed il
because of its requirement Of a
certificate when a char3er is issued
That brought the holding company
because we know here that charter
viii have certain legal safeguards"
Colonel Harnblin then made a de-
tailed statement Of what he repre-
sented to be the conditions when
he took the deal in charge. In SUBJ
stance it was to the effect tnat when
the Douglas Investment company
when James S. Douglas was president
had gone across the line to render
service to the people of Aqua Prieta
there had been no charter granted but
the extension had been made and
operation had been carried along on
the good faith Of the two parties
Eventually, there was charter, or
agreement drawn up but Colonel
Hamblin says it never was signed
by the operating company and there
fore never had a legal existence. He
said this condition continued to exist
to the present time and that sne
purchase of the new company would
remedy that since it would give
the interests he represented in the
deal valid and secure right TO
operate there.
He again returned to the condi-
tionS of the pending deal and said
he regarded "the action of the
gentlemen holding the concession for
plant in Aqua Prieta as fair and
reasonable" He then recalled his
experiences in handling such deals,
mentioning several places in Penn
sylvania where he had handled
franchise problems, two of them being
York and Altoona, and the list in
Guiding some six or seven, in all,
the inference being that he had
experienced some aggravations in Sc
curing his rights there and had been
compelled to meet what he regarded
as too great exactions:
After Colonel HamElin had related
these experiences, the writer arose
and remarked: There would be no
objection, I assume, to carry a story
to the effect that, negotiations which
are expected to be concluded soon are
under Way and then tell the facts
we have discussed would there,
Colonel?"
'Oh, no, it would be all right to
handle it on that line just SO you
do not say that the deal has been
completed for. as i told you, we have
to have the New York approval. II
we don't get that, there will be nc
trade, at present" was Tie reply
'"Then I'll say that the negotiations
are pending and are expected to be
approved in the paper tomorrow"
''Very well, and when return next
week, and have heard from New
York I'll call you up and ttll you
about it,
The colonel then related that he
was staying over until Friday to meet
Governor Fausto Topete to discuss
some details concerning other busi-
ness matters he had in hand but that
he ought to be in Tucson Thursday
evening because OF urgent business
After he had made the statement
there was the usual exchange OF
greetings and the story was written
as it appeared in the Dispatch yes
terday morning.
