SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. g.
$4,000.
It's rather a large sum Of money.
But, large or small, that's what
professional golfers win battle for
during the 1929-1930 winter season
at California and Texas golf clubs
in various open events.
According to the schedule sub
mitted by the Los Angeles Junior
Chamber of Commerce, which spon.
sors the annual Los Angeles SIC, ,00c

most 100000 in good round dollars

pros will scramble beginning Novem.
Der s, when the Hawaiian open, at
Wailalae Club, Honolulu, viii be
staged.
The Los Angeles body, anxious to
put the winter season on a definite
basis. has suggested to Peck that
the Berkeley open to be held No.
vember 1924. Unfortunately this
date is the date of the Big Game for
1929, SO that Peck can't agree
with it.
The Los Angeles schedule lists
. number Of important tOurna-
ments. the largest Of which IL
the Aqua Caliente open with q
purse OF $25,OO0 put up.
The Los Angeles event Ie the
next largest, from a monetary view
point, with $4,000 at stake, save
for the P. G. A. championships at
La Cumbra December 2-7, when
$1O,4OO will be contested for.
Other events OF Importance 70
follow the Hawaiian event anE , ne

Petition Sig1lers Must
Be Registered Voters

The following statement has been
saceived from George Beardsley,
prosecuting attorneys, with regard
TO signing petitions:
"The secretary of state, as re-
CURED by law, has furnished the
prosecuting attorney with a list
of people who have signed initia-
tive petitions without being regis
tered voters. The law provides that
this information must be first fur
nished to the prosecuting attorney,
who may, if he deems the signing
of the petition intentional, prose-
cute the party concerned for a
rnisdemeanor. Most of the parties
on the list, of which there are u,
are from Kennewick and it is con-
aidered advisable that everyone
SHOULD know that before they sign
any initiative petition they should
first be a registered voter. Unless
vou are registered your signature
Is Of no value anyhow and will be
stricken by the secretary of state
and in addition to that you will
Rave violated the law"

Kurth Home Burns

r.
The Mike Kurth home, known as
the Hubbard place, burned to the
ground Sunday about noon. The
family were sitting down to lunch
when they became aware something
was wrong by the plaster dropping
off the ceiling. On rapid invest
igation they found the whole attic
aflame. They were just able to save
a few articles and make their es-
cape before the whole house was
q mass of fire. This is very un-
fortunate occurrence, and the fam
lily have our sympathy. A defect
i've flue is thought to have beer
the cause, as the fire started in the
attic.
