Mr.. Kcarns failed to get past the
first hole with the idea. 10 begin
with, Won Elm baked. 1t appears
he merely was testing. But Mr..
Kearns has been jested by better
testers than Van Elm and besides
be is not the only amteur golfer in
we world.
The fact is, KearnS discarded
yle idea almost as soon as he
formed it. Gclf, he learned, much
10 his grief, is not productive OF
great financial returns, and while
Kearns is public spirited citizen,
keenIy sensitive to the finer things
in life, he must have that Old
gravy.
TXTHEN he had Dempsey the
wv smallest check ne ever got for
championship production was
$27, 500, plus $4,000 in motion picture
money. This was for the fight
against Willard, a fight that lasted
nine minutes.
No golf championship has drawn
within so per cent of this amount
since the policy of charging adj
mission was started in 1922.
Mr.. Kearns naturally is not going
to waste his genius on a clammy
proposition yielding such scant re-
turns and it may be set down as
official and authentic that Scotlas
ancient pastime will have to worry
along without him.
Mr.. Kearns was shocked to learn
that the record gate for golf in
America is only $1,078. This was
established by the professionals in
their open championship at Chi
cago in 1922.
"That's no business for a fellow
who can talk in millions" de-
clares Mr.. Kearns.
THE highest amateur gate Is
$11.673, set at BaStuSroa two
wears ago when Jones and Won Elm
went to the finals. The top women's
gate is $2,123. This was recorded at
St. Louis in 1925 when Glenna Col
lett and Alexa Sterling performed In
the windup.
I am told by Tom Mcmahon, sec
rotary Of the United States Golf
Association, that the total amount
OF monies taken in at all the paid
= championships since 1922, including
the Walker Cup matches at Garden
City in 1924, is $124,145. Of which
sum, 1897 still remains in the as
ISOLATION strong box, in case you
happen to feel like writing in and
borrowing couple Of bucks.
Aside from showing why Kearns
decided to stick to his original
trade, the figures are interesting in
that they indicate the customers
would rather pay money to see the
professionals play than the anna
teurs despite the fact that some OF
the greatest players in the game are
amateurs. In this respect golf does
not seem to differ greatly from some
of our other sports.
In six championships the profess
SIGNALS outdrew the amateurs by a
margin Of $10,333.

This difference is probably ex-
planned by the presence of Robert

MERCY SHIP OF
NORTHLAND TO
co ON BLOCK
Coast Guard Cutter Bear
Has Served Faithfully
for so Years.
BY EARL III. LEFT
United Press staff Correspondent

OAKLAND, Cal, Nov. 29.-For
more than half century the coast
guard cutter "Bear" has roamed the
northern sea lanes in the services of
her country and now is about to
be sold to the highest bidder.
AT least that was the original or
der, but it shall not be executed
If the men who trod her decks on
the long Arctic cruises can make
their voices heard through the laby-
rinth of official channels" to the
landsmen in charge of such matters
in the nations capital.
The tradition of the Bear is IA
nous in the Northland. Men reck-
oned the coming of spring by her
arrival when she turned her prov
southwark.
ALI Things to All Men
The Bear brought medicine to the
ailing, law to the lawless, food to
the hungry, mail to the exiled min
ers. She policed the sealing fields
and rescued the shipwrecked.
The Bear first went to sea in 1874
at a Scotland shipyard where she
was launched, three-masted bark
rugged steamer of sturdy yet trim
design.
A few years later she was plow-
ing rorthward under the colors Of
the United States, in the navy, as
flagship of the Greeley relief expe-
dition. Other great explorers knew
her well.
Welcome Sight to Explorer
Steffanson, exploring the Arctic
wastes, knew he had reached the
outer fringes of civilization when
his bedraggled crew first sighted her
ballooning canvas above the ice
foes.
The ships doctor performed ev-
cry kind Of minor and major OPP
Grafton, the chaplain married the
natives and conducted 2ral SER
vices.
In short, the Bear and her per-
sonnet performed thousand and
one services in the name of gov
eminent and humanity.

GOATS REPLACING
 CANNES IN TESTS
Laboratory Experts Turn From
 One to the Other

Tuscaloosa, Ala, Feb. 10 R-Re- sourcefulness is as necessary In the scientific laboratory as it is in industry.
 Dogs are among the most valu. able animals for laboratory study in the medical sciences. In the south, however, they are difficult to obtain. Regardless of their lack of any sort of a dignified pedigree, hardly anybody is willing to part with them, even for a good plsce in the interest of training physicians and surgeons to alleviate the ills of human beings.
 No such sentimental feeling, how ever, attaches to goats. And they abound in the south So Dr. George T. Pack of the University of Ala bama medical school has turned to these mammals for experimental work in surgery and pathology, finding them valuable substitutes for dogs and much less expensive. They are not only as easy to handle as dogs, he has learned. but they stand operations we'll and their re- actions in certain pathological ex- periments are satisfactory.

TRAWLER MAO IS SWEPT
 ONTO ROCKS; CREW SAVED
Goes Ashore in Terrific Gale and Snowstorm On PrOvincetOwn,
 Massachusetts.

Provincetown. Mass. Feb. 10
 UP)-After It's crew of seven had fought their way ashore in a blind ing snow storm, the beam trawler, Mao III, with 10000 pounds of fish aboard. was swept onto the beach here early today.
 The battered trawler lay high and dry on the sands near the Peaked Hill coast guard station and was expected to be total loss.
 Suffering from exposure and ex- haustion after terrific battle for their lives, Captain Bradford Amir ault of Somerville and the six mem- bers of his crew were being cared for by coast guards.
 Besides Captain Amirault, the men who escaped from the crippled trawler were J. NJ. Jensen, Rock land. Me; Anthony Eakins, East Boston; Charles Almiro, Lynn; Ralph Rocheteau, Prsvincetown: George Muise, Lynn; and John Car CIV. Roxbury.
 The Mao was groping it's way through a curtain of smoke about a mile south of the Peaked Hill coast guard station when it ground ed on Peaked Hill bar.
 Its seams cracked and it began to fill. Giant waves swept the deck and efforts to reverse the engine proved fruitless.
 For half an hour, the men strug- gled to launch dory. Several times the little boat was almost crushed a against the trawler's sides.
 Finally the crew got into the dory and started the mile pull to shore Captain Amirault said later that If the wind had been less favorable they would have been swept out to sea.
 Meanwhile a coast guard lookout had sighted the flickering lights of the crippled fisherman. The brooches buoy was prepared. a surf boat was made ready for launching and flares went up as a signal that aid was coming.
 But before the guardsmen put ous. the faint shouts of the Macs crew were heard above the roaring surf. With lines about their waists, coast guards rushed into the surf and dragged the Mao's boat ashore.
 Three of the Mao's crew collapsed as they reached safety and had to be carried to the nearby coast guard station.

SMITH ID AGAIN ] @ Mfl)RE VOTERS
'uilab SeIlts Iudds Given to , Plbic foF Settlement

Springfield. Ill.. Feb. 10 (UP)- The confused Illinois senatorial sit uatioa was thrown to tho voters of the stats for solution today through the resignation. reappointment and announcement of candidacy for re- | election of Senator Delegate - late senator r-elect-Frank L. Smith.
 Smith will 70 before the voters on the issue of the states right to elect its own senator without approval of the senate, which refused to seat him.
 Smiths reappointment was fol- lowed by filing of call for spe- cial primary to be held in April for nomination of candidates for the senate and for special election to be held November 6.
 4 petition as a candidate for re- nomination and reelection will be filed next week. Smith announced in & statement issued last night.
 In his statement Smith asserted the seat, declared vacant by the sen- ate because of alleged use of slush funds in Smiths campaign was not recognized as vacant by himself nor for Governor Small.
 Tn fairness. to the people who have honored me-" the statement said, "I have determined to create such . vacancy by what am ad- vised the only legal way it can be done in six years, which is to resign my commission as senator.
 If the people of Illinois desire to admit they must elect their senators subject to veto power of the senate. they ought to have the opportunity to express that desire, my candidacy for renomination and reelection will give them that opportunity"
 Smiths action was believed to have been in keeping with advices of Governor Small and Mayor Will liam Hale Thompson, his supporters in the Illinois republican party, that he keep his case out of the courts.
 It also was believed Smith will not attempt to gain recognition by the senate on the basis of his re- appointment to fill the vacancy caused by his resignation.
 His renomination, political ob- servers said, was virtually assured, since it was believed Senator Charles $. Deneen of Illinois who had back ed Smith in his fight to obtain his place in congress, would join with the organized vote of all factions in the state republican ranks.
 In event he is renominated, Smith must run in the special election. He has announced he will campaign on the question of states rights, con- tending the senate exceeded it's pow CT in refusing him his seat.

RIDING WAS GIDDY
 0N STEAM AUTO.
But That Vis tN Yells Aeo-
 Once Prohibited

New York. Feb. 10.-The earliest known ancestor of the modern auto mobile. self-propelled steam-pow- cred vehicle, attained speed of two aud a half miles an hour over French roadway in 1796-six years before the Americen Revolu- tion.
 In 1so4 Oliver Evans steered . steam driven vehicle through the streets of Philadelphia. and by 1886 there was a regular steam-autobus line running between London and Brighton. England.
 These are the surprising facts un- earthed by Myron NJ. Stearns in an effort to answer that highly con- trovcrsial question:: Who invented the automobile ?" MT. stearns' con- clusion, presented in the February issue of The Elks' Magazine, is that the automobile wasn't invented, 1t was evolved. and a half dozen fig ures scattered over more than a century contributed essentially to it's development.
 Except for three handicaps, Stearns shows, the automobile prob ably would have reached its present stage of development a generation CT more ago. These are:
 Once Prohibited By Law
 First-That the original steam driven autos. which had to be con- stantly fired with wood or coal, aroused such public prejudice as they went puffing over the country side, frightening men as we'll as horses, tearing up roads and endan- gering property with fire, had to be abandoned. In England law was enforced for 50 years prohibiting their use except when preceded by a man with red flag"
 second-That although N. H. Otto of Germany designed the four cycle engine on which modern auto mobile propulsion IS based in 1877, and George B. Selden applied for a patent on a gasoline-driven motor car in America in 1879, develop ment was held back g. generation by
 
 Selden himself. Selden delayed actu- al issuance of the patent for Ia years while he tried futilly to in- terest capital in his idea.
 Third-That the pneumatic tire. which made motoring comfortable enough to attract public interest. was not developed to a practical pont until late in the 18th century.
 The French forerunner of all automobiles was built, stearns finds, soon after the invention of Watts steam engine, by Capt. Nicholas Jo- seph Cugnot of the French army who intended it for use aS . gun tractor. Its chief fault was that II couldn't be steered and soon wrecked itself against wall.

 The ruling, according to State Superintendent of Public Instruction Webster H. Pearce. affects num- bar of normal schools.
