 The great lament in golf is the in ability to keep within the range one knows he is capable of shooting. Listen to the complaints in the locker room, as the golfers come in from their rounds, and note the dis gust of the low handicap men when they admit that their game jumped into the sos.
 The phenomenon of going 10 or l strokes over what one has often played is not only displayed by the average and fair players but it crops up in the play of the stars. It is not confined to the amateurs but appears also in the rounds made by the pros.
 At Winged Foot, Bobby Jones shot 60 on his first round and a 79 two days later. Espinosa's range was even greater, varying from 70 to S4. Even the great Haig played round of Sl.
 Every golfer. from duffer 10 star, suffers from the scourge of the game-inconsistenc You can ex- plain it when it touches the dub by saying his stroke is not grooved but how about the champions?
 While this tendency to play under ones ability at the most inoppor- tune times is one of the sad parts of a golfers life, the turn of for tunes wheel sometimes produces surprising results. When the breaks come. player in the high 80 class drops for the first time into the 70s.
 It has recently happeded at Shuttle Meadow. Half dozen men, who never shot below so, have turned in cards ranging from 73 to 7S and as many more, who do not score in the 70s often have been there several times during the past month.
 The same lowering of scores has been experienced by the 90 and the 100 players. How happy they all would be if their improvement would become stabilized.
 But golf is so much mental game and so much an individual game. let alone the factor of luck, that the confning of ones game within range of five strokes is well nigh beyond human ability
 Better to accept the philosophy of the gentleman who said, after shoot ing 76 when his best score previous ly was S6: T suppose it will keep me at the game the rest of my life, trying 10 duplicate the score.'

 Sammy Mandell had an easy time of it in beating Tony Conzoneri last night Tn Chicago in defense of his worlds lightweight ampionship. We often wonder if the lightweight champion would do as good against Louis (Kid) kaplin. Kaplin appears to be one of the most feared Of the contenders for the crown.
 kapln went into training this past week. He is fully recovered from a recent operation to a bothersome knee and he plans an extensive cam- paign with the lightweight crown, or, at least, a shot at it, as his ul- innate goal.
 kaplan's recent fights showed him to be better than he ever was and that is saying a great deal. Louie IS punching harder with both hands and his triumphs over recent op- ponents Hasn't helped his cause with the leaders any.
 Eddy Hinchey, fleet footed 100- yard dash man, resents the infer ence issued by Frank McGrath ana Bill McCue that he can run only so yards and cant last the entire cen- tury.

 We understand that there will be high stakes for the winner of this three cornered race. Each contest ant has put up two dollars, the win ner to take the purse. However, ID to the present time. no one has given up the tip on the place or time for the event.

"VAMPING VENUS" BIG
 COMEDY NOW AT PALACE

There's real scope TOT imagina- tion in the film comedy field, and ''Vamping Venus,' a laugh-fest at the Palace tonight, takes advantage of it. Imagine starting the story in New York in 1928, and going back for most of the action to Greece in the days of Mars and all the other gods-and goddesses.
 Charlie Murray and Louise Fa- zenda head a great cast in this refreshingly new comedy from First National Pictures, and Thelma Todd in the Grecian episodes, is "Venus.P There are giggles, chuckles and guffaws galore in the New York scenes, but laughter gets really hysterical in the Greek period.
 Murray goes to night club to escape his nagging wife, and gets rap on the head which precipi- tates him right into the middle of Old Greece. There he meets all the characters of the New York days in different roles; the wife for instance, is Circel And, ot course, with his knowledge of mod ern inventions and politics, he be- comes dictator of the land, wages war, wins Venus-and comes tc New York with someone pouring water on his head!

 From the Oklahoma oil-boom town the locale of the drama shifts to a California wildcat oil lease where Warner Baxter, who plays opposite Miss Sweet, is seen as Q derrick man. The well comes in a gusher, and it is the resources gained from the oil and the lease that enables the derrick man to establish the dance hall queen ir a luxurious apartment in San Fran cisco, where most of the action takes place
 It is gripping tale of q woman who could not undo her past, nc matter how indefatigably the beauty doctors and the modistes worked to transform her into a lady The man, however, for a time shoots like a meteor over the busi- ness horizon of San Francisco and makes a deep impression in the ul- tra-fashionable society circles.

Western Girl
in Health Tests

Millions of boys and girls all over the
world, thousands of them right here in
the West are being restored to health
and strength by the purely vegetable
tonic and laxative known as California
Fig Syrup and endorsed by physicians
for over so years.
Children need no urging to take it.
They love its rich, fruity flavor. Moth
ing can compete with it as a gentle, but
certain laxative. and it goes further
than this. 1t gives tone and strength
to the stomach and bowels SO these or
gans continue to act normally, of their
own accord. 1t stimulates the appetite,
helps digestion.
A Kansas mother, Mrs. Dana Allgire,
610 Monroe ST, Topeka, says: Bonnie
B. is absolutely the picture Of health.
now, with her ruddy cheeks, bright
eyes and plump but graceful little body
and she stands at the top in every
health test.
Much of the credit for her perfect
condition is due to California Fig
Syrup. We have used 1t since babyhood
to keep her bowels active during colds
or any children's ailments and she has
always had an easy time with them.
She always responds to its gentle urg-
ing and is quickly back to normal"
Ask your druggist for California Fig
Syrup and look for the word "Califor-
MIA" on the carton SO youll always get
the genuine.

Little Chief, Two Moons, Old Wolf,
Maybe Eagle, Little Creek, Spotted
Wolf, Sitting Night and Chief Bear.
The name of II of these chiefs is
perpetuated in Two Moons creek that
empties into the Yellowstone river
about 10 or IL miles west of the mouth
of the Tongue river.
The resistance of the Indians had
become practically broken with the re-
suit Of the battle of the Wolf noun
talns. Wherever they held out there
after it was in small bands which
secured the country aimleSSly and with
no definite objective in view except
hat OF being able to prevent their re-
turn to the reservation. Eventually
they were all corraled and sent back
to live with and among their brethren
where they chafed under the exile i'm
posed upon them. Those who survived
(and there are many still living) the
rigid winters and the fate of conflicts
Of half a century ago, are still hoping
hat in one form or another the gov
eminent will have restored them the
equivalent to what they lost in their
contest to retain their ancient hunt
ing grounds.
The irresistible march of the white
man could not be stayed. The Indian
youth of today listens to the tales of
his father and straightway begins to
build new dream castles in which he
some day hopes to be able to compete
with his white friends and become
equal to them through achievements in
different n than those in which
his forbearS labored. He is seeking a
place in the sun Of the agricultural,
industrial and commercial worlds.
