perjured testimony in the trial. He
must plead to an indictment on

His wife corroborated some of his
testimony Thursday, bravely holding
to her story despite efforts of District
Attorney Buron Fits to break it

and seemed about to faint, bailiff

~ ETROIT, October L. Oakland
Hills, the course once labelled
invincible for powder puff
~ golf, has provided the scene of
the smartest qualifying round
in the SO years history Of the woman's
national championship.
Headed by Helen Hicks. the sensa-
tional shot producer from Hewlett,
Long Island, and Virginia Van VIE of
Chicago. 80 contenders for the national
crown conquered the heavily trapped
course so completely in yesterdays test
that an SO or lower was required to
gain place in the championship flight.
which opens today over the 1s-hole
match play route.
The qualifying mark was three
strokes under the previous record,
which was established in 1927 and re-
peated at Hot Springs. Va, last year.
So closely punched we're the Qualifiers
that only nine strokes separated Miss
Hicks and Miss Van VIE, who tied for
medalist honors with sparkling 79s. and
Helen Payson. Portland, Me-; Helen
Meehan, Philadelphia, and Bernice
Wall of Oshkosh, Wis, who just came
under the wire.
A month ago some criticism was
leveled at the tournament committee
for selecting a course with the rugged
reputation of Oakland Hills. even
though 1t was whitfield to 6,437 yards.
With its rolling fairways, long dog legs,
water holes and undulating greens, it
was the concensus it was too much for
womens golf.
Miss Hicks, who has captured titles
in the last two events she has COM
peted-the medal play derby at Chicago
and the Canadian womens open
gave par a thorough drubbing on hel
first nine holes. She carded q SO, five
under par, for that journey. but lost
her chance for sole right to the media
by taking a 43 coming home, because
Of several bad slice shots. Miss Var
VIE shot more consistently, bagging
38 going out and Al coming back
Three puts green's blasted her hopes
Of clear possession of the medal.
One shot behind the leaders was
Edith Puier of Reading, Pa, and Mrs
Alexa Stirling Fraser, now of Ottawa
Canada, completing the par breaking
group with BIS, which landed them
in third position. Glenna Collett OF
Los Angeles, the defending champion
and favorite to win again, had to be
content with par 81 along with six
other stars.
Miss Collect was faced by compare
lively easy opponent In tooayS initial
match play round-Mrs. w. A. johnson
of Philadelphia. who qualified with an
81. Glenna appears to be strictly on
her game and, although she is in the
upper and hardest bracket, she should
60 far in the competition, at least.
The feature match today brought
Miss Hicks and Maureen circuit of
White Beeches, N. j., present metropol-
itan champion. who qualified with an
"a. together. Miss circuit has been of
her usual game for several weeks and
was expected to fall before the steady
firing 18-year-old Long Island girl

pionship, played recently. is considered
the best putter among woman golfers.
She does most of her scoring on the
greens.
The Oakland Hills course has not a
single fiat green among the 10. They
are difficult for putting. Two days rain
slowed up the course, adding to the
woes of the contestants.
Maureen circuit won medal honors in
the women's national at Hot Springs,
Va, last year with an 80. At the 1928
tournament 81 qualified, but Oakland
Hills is considered from three to four
strokes harder than Hot Springs.
On the Oakland Hills course Mrs.
Dorothy Campbell Hurd should have an
excellent chance. She probably is the
most consistent of all woman golfers,
and accuracy Is one of the virtues of
her play. Accuracy pays high dividends
on this course.
Mrs. Hurd won the championship in
1909, 1910 and 1924. She was medalist
in 1910 and 1916. She was runner-up
in 1920, semi-finalist In 1911 and 1928,
and qualified In seven other champion
ships.

nament, keeping at their task in the
face Of discouraging weather during the
Summer and moving everything toward
one end-the finest tournament event
ever held about Washington.
For a time last week 1t appeared that
the course would be too fast and that
the fairways, particularly on the first
nine holes, would be almost as fast as
they were during the Summer. That
cannot happen now. The rain Of the
past two days has softened up the lay
out until today it Is in good condition,
although soft; and If the rain stops
by tomorrow, the course should be In
apple-pie shape. Last week Thomson's
greens force scattered lime on the fair
ways to encourage the growth Of grass
hoping that rain would come along and
wash 1t into the ground. That rain
was as bright beam of sunlight to
the greens committee, for before the
rain the fairways on the first nine holes
were coated with lime: and II the rain
had not come along, playing conditions
would have been disagreeable.
We sampled ThompSon's new traps
on the fourteenth and sixteenth holes
yesterday, and can testify that they
are placed in the right positions and
Will catch and stop shots off the line
at both these holes But we hold that
Dave Thompson should deepen the trap
at the right of the sixteenth, for he
hit one right through it yesterday. The
trap at the left of the sixteenth fairway
caught Ray Garrity's ball. but that did
