DIXIE. GIRL
LOSES HER
1ST MATCH
BY r. A. Wray

81. ANDREW >, FIFE, Scot
land, May 13.-Three of the,
four American women entered
in the British ladies open golf
championship advanced to the
second round today, but Miss
Marion Turpie, Of New Or
leans, in whom high hopes had
been stored, suffered an unex-
pected defeat in the first
round.
Glenna Collet, American national
wcmen's champion, came through
the first round with flying colors,
defeating Miss Marjorie White, of
Roehampton. England, 5 up and 4
to play. Miss Marion. Hollins. of
Glen Head, n. Y. also scored an
easy victory over Mrs. r. V. F'inlay,
of st. Georges Hill, up and to
play. Miss Gertrude Boothby,; Of
Rochester, n. Y. advanced when.
her opponent, Mrs. Clifford Kitson,
of Ilkley, defaulted. Miss Turpie
lost to Miss S. +. Dampney, Eng
land, and 2.
Miss Turpie got off to an inaus-
picious start in her match with
Miss Dampney, taking six strokes
and five for the Wimbledon girl
on the first hole. Marion recovered
with a nice chip shot to the green
after dropping her second in a
burn, but missed an easy second
putt.
Miss Turpie was still one
down at the turn as both took
on the ninth, the third con-
secutive hole to be halVed. A
short second shot spoiled
MariOn's chances of squaFipg
the match. Miss Dampney won
the eleventh, twelfth and thir-
teentI.
Defeat for the New Orleans girl
seemed imminent when her second
shot landed in the rough on thz'
fifteenth, but she rallied and won
'the hole, 5 to g., She ohipped tofhe
green in brilliant, fashion and was
9down in two puts.
The American girl, now dormie
three, faced the necessity of win
ming the next three holes to square
the match. She was unequal to
'the task. Her brassie shot found a
bunker on the sixteenth. She was
on the green in four. the hole being
halved in skies. This gave Miss
Dampney the match, three and two.

Gienna Coiett played brilliant
game in defeating Miss White.
Her performance fulfilling all ex-
pectations, and making it seem a
virtual certainty that she would
meet Joyce Wethered, the British
hope, in the final round.
Miss ,Collett was two up at the
end OF the first nine holes, during
which she accomplished four holes
of the difficult course-the first,
third, seventh and ninth-in par,
and scored birdie four on the
par five fifth.
1t was Glenna's magnificent :
driving that helped her to this
splendid victory. Her tee-shOts
i. were the sort that any man
might well be proud of, one in
particular, at the fifth, being
the longest drive seen made by
any woman on British links
this year.
She outdrove Miss White by so
yards at this hole, and followed it
up with a 40.yard advantage at the
sixth. Her putting, as in recent
practice, was weak in spots. and a
tendency to over-run the cup cost
her what might have been sef1sa-
stionally low scores at the seventh
send eighth.
The Washington times., 1929-05-13

The signing of that contract
definitely closed the door against
DenIpsey's return to tie ring.
He will not fight again and the
reason he won't is that SchmeI-
ing is the man whom he had
chosen as his own. Now that
Pauline has got him, Dempsey
will not be interested further.
They have taken his lOlIypOp
away from him.

At this point, it was apparent
that John was determined to con-
duct himself along the lines laid
down by the old political writer
on bipartisan paper whose
lengthy dissertations never failed
to prove that there was much to
be said on both sides. Only on
the question of Schmeling's quail
fications did he get down g to a
direct, three-point" landing. The
lad, he admitted. was a bright
young man and undoubtedly big
help to the folks at home. But, as
for beating Pauline, he couldn't do
1t with a horsewhip.
The Washington times., 1929-05-13

That being the case, what
then did he think of PaulinO's
chance with ,Sharkey? Was the
heavyweight title going abroad
for the first time since Fitz-
simmons day? 1t seemed that
John didn't know. Sharkey, it
appeared, might be TOO fast for
Pauline. The latter. on the
other hand, might be too tough
for SIlarkey.

While Farmer Browns Boy and
Farmer Brown and Mother Brown slept
peacefully, thieves were busy in the
henhouse There were two OF them.
out in the road was an automobile
parked a safe distance away. These
thieves had had much experience in
stealing chickens and knew just how
to go about it. They knew that Bowser
the Hound was off hunting Reddy Fox,
so they felt sure they could work un-
molested. It looked very much as If
Farmer Browns Boy would lose all his
hens. Yes, sir, it looked very much
as if he would lose all his hens, ana
they were very choice hens.
working quickly, one of the men took
the hens from the roost one at time,
IN such a way as not to disturb the
others. Meanwhile the other held bag
open to receive the hens. When the
first bag was filed this man took it
out of the henhouse and stepped out
side the barnyard gate to put it down,

that bag of hens. Just then his toe
touched a stick. He picked up the stick
and threw it at kitty, at the same time
rushing forward two or three steps and
stamping his feet
Right that instant things happened.
Yes, sir. things happened! They hap
pened at fast and furious rate. That
wasn't black and white cat. OF course,
YOU know who it was. 1t was Jimmy
Skunk. Yes, sir, it was Jimmy Skunk!
And Jimmy had brought his little scent
gun into use. That man gave choklng
gasp and started to run. He stumbled
and fell heavily and gave vent to
smothered exclamation.
The man inside the henhouse did not,
of course, know what had happened
He heard the other mans fall and ex-
clamation, and then he heard the sound
of his running feet. OF course, he
dropped everything, for his first thought
was that they had been discovered. He
bolted out of the henhouse door.
"Phew!" he exclaimed, for JiAlmy
Skunk's scent nearly took his breath
away. Then he plunged for the hen
it open with bang and plunged out
to follow his companion. Now it just
happened that Jimmy Skunk, who
through it all had been quite undis-
turbed. had moved forward so that as
the second thief started to run, he was
without knowing it, running straight
toward Jimmy. Once more Jimmy
brought that little scent-gun into play.
Then he calmly turned and walked over
to examine the bag of mems.
Meanwhile. the two thieves choking
and gaSping. stumbled toward their
waiting automobile. There would be
no more stealing of chickens that night.
OF course, the second thief blamed the
first thief Couldn't you see that Skunk
when you went out there?" he de-
manded Didn't you know enough to
leave him alone? You must have fright
ened him, or he wouldn't have used his
scent Say, this is terrible Well have
to get out of here and get long dis
lance away, or they'll find us by the
scent"
In the meantime the chickens had
wakened when the second thief had
dropped the bag, and there was great
squawking and cackling going on in the
henhouse It was a regular alarm. AL
together, it was enough to arouse the
whole neighborhood. Farmer Browns
Boy jumped out of bed and threw up
his window. "Phew!" he exclaimed.
Jimmy Skunk must be in among the
hens this time I guess he isn't so
innocent as I thought he was"

He planned to go back for another bag.
AS he turned he saw something white
moving. Looking more closely, he saw
what he thought was black and white
