But this clever protege of Mrs. Hazel
Hotchkiss Wightman Is not diSmayed.
Although she believes she never will
be as big as Helen Wills and Betty
Nuthall, she finds some solace In the
fact that since last year she has gained
"a whole 10 pounds"
Like Little Bill" Johnston Of Davis
Cup renown, Miss Palfrey hits q tennis
ball with power all out Of proportion
to her pounds and inches. It was speed
as well as guile and court craft that
carried her to victory yesterday over
Mrs. Dorothy Shepherd Barron, sturdy
veteran Of England'S Wightman Cup
team, after nervousness had deprived
her Of chance to win the opening set
Yet Miss Palfrey probably never can
hope to wallop a ball as hard as Miss
Wills, and accordingly her game is built
upon Sharp-shooting and court-covering
ability rather than on sheer power OF
stroke. Despite her lack OF stature,
Miss Palfrey demonstrated yesterday
that she can play the net far better
than some Of the leading woman play
ers Of the world. Her speed Of foot
and mastery Of court strategy aston
ished the gallery as well as her oppo-
nent and reflected credit to the teach
tngs Of Mrs. Wightman, the ex-cham-
pion, who had an important part in
the development Of Helen Wills.
Miss Palfrey is one of four players
still surviving who were not seeded in
the draw. Mrs. Shepherd-Barron was
one Of the seeded number and so is
Mary Greet of Kansas City, whom Sarah
was to meet in third-round play this
afternoon. II successful, the Brookline
miss was to try conclusions Thursday
with Helen Jacobs, providing the stocky
young star from Berkeley came through
according to schedule against Mrs. B.
C. Covell Of the English contingent
today.
The other leading entrants likewise
were expected to traverse the third
round successfully. Miss Wills. who lost
only one game in two matches, met
Alice Francis Of Orange, N. j.. while
Betty Nuthall, the principal English
threat, was to meet Mrs. May Bundy,
the Santa Monica, Calf, veteran.

ITALIAN COLONIES
Gov. BadogIio Brings End to
Strife in North
Africa.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ROME, September 27.-The herculean
task given to Gen. Badoglio last jan
uary of bringing peace and tranquility
to the two italian colonies in North Al
RIGA. Trlpoli and Cyrenaica, TO which he
was sent as governor, might have daunt-
ed a less courageous man. He was told
that no time should be lost in estab-
fishing order, though for IS years rebel
warfare had been raging. In his usual
thorough way he has accomplished his
mission and it seems likely that the
peace will be lasting.
The two colonies can now settle down
to developing the land. restoring the
productiveness which in the days of the
Roman empire made this part of North
Africa the granary of the world, includ-
ing Rome itself.
Arabs Always Troublesome.
Ever since Italy, after the Turkish
Italo war in 1911, received the vilayet
of Tripoli and that of HenghaSi as her
spoils, there has been trouble with the
dissatisfied Arabs. 1t has been costly
adventure. At the end of 1912 Italy held
only the coast region and Berbers and

Arabs opposed the occupation Of the
fertile GASES in the interior.
A year later italian troops had beaten
the Berber chieftain, Sulciman ell Ba-
rum, who had set himself up as ruler
in the Nefusa hills. They drove MIN
into exile, and for one year every post
of importance was in Italian possession.
Just before the great war a vast pro-
gram Of public works was planned. The
italian colonial authorities had the
greatest trust in the Arabs and the
Berbers, never dreaming that few
months later, when Italy entered the
war with the allies, they would disap-
point them. Italy needed her troops
elsewhere and withdrew all the gaITl-
sons, except from the cities on the
coast.
Natives Joined Germany.
The Arabs. seeing their chance, CO.
operated with the Germans. Turkish
officers encouraged the Senussi, who re-
sented the italian occupation Of eyre
naica, and trouble started for the army
of occupation. 1t was only in 1922 that
Arab rebels were driven out of M1su-
rata.
Signor Volpi,. during his term as gov
ernor of Tripoli brought order to the
colony and some chiefs made peace.
Guerilla warfare continued in eyre
naica. Though different Senussi chiefs
made peace, there was always a new
leader to carry on the conflict.
Last year Ahmed Sef en- Nasserthe
the newest Arab leader, planned a CAM
paign which extended operations into
Tripoli. With comparatively few men
he attacked three different sectors
where there were italian outposts. Gen
del Bono, who was then governor, sue
ceeded in dispensing the rebels.
But the great difficulty lay in the
fact that many of the friendly tribes
were forced to join the rebels. An
effort at disarming had been attempted
in 1925, when 500 tribesmen had to
surrender their rifles, but it had been

Chose Peaceful Methods.
Then Gen. Badoglio was sent to
Tripoli. 1t had been said that this off,
Ger could not be called brilliant, but
that he is peculiarly gifted in finding
the right men to carry out his orders.
His method in Tripoli, as elsewhere, was
simple, He first sought a complete and
authoritative report on the situation.
He went to Tripoli. after studying the
situation, and then to Cyrenaica. after
ward returning to Rome to make his
report.
It did not take him long to decide
that no method used before would do
in the present settlement. The first
question he settled was the matter of
funds. He discovered that in many
cases lack of money had meant a
change in policy.
he Staked success on peaceful methods.
He discovered that the rebels were hard
pressed. They found it very difficult to
get arms and ammunition, and, besides,
many of the wells where they formerly
had watered their camels and horses
were in the possession of the italian
troops. BY secret channels information
was carried to the rebels that fair terms
were awaiting them if they would sub
NIT to the Italian authorities.
Nomad Tribes Disarmed.
Five months after his arrival in the
colonies he ordered Gen. Graziani to
disarm the nomad tribes of Ghibla.
These had been friendly, but it had
been learned that some of them had
been forced to join the rebels and there
was a possibility that the others would
follow their example.
Plans are now being made to disarm
the tribes of zim Fam of Sciato, who
recently sent messengers to say that
they wished to make peace.

BANDITS AND LINDY'S VISIT
BUILD MEXICO'S AIR LINES

eff there had not been American
oil companies in the Tampico fields,
and If Lindbergh had not flown to
Mexico, commercial aviation develop
ment would not have come here so
quickly Mr.. Rihl says.
:. The first commercial plane in Mexi-
can service made the first Mexico
City Tarnpico flight in January, 1922
and then began pay roll flights in the
oil fields. During the boom" in the
'TampiCo fields in 1922 and 1923 10
pay roll trips week were made from
Tampico, carrying 100000 pesos week
About three pay rolls a week are car
ried by airplane to different oil camps
at present. Nh. Rihl estimates that the
atrplanes of his company have deliv-
cred total of perhaps 100000 pesos
to oil field camps for pay rolls.
There has only been one loss. Sacks
containing $4,000 pesos were once drop
ped into a, dense jungle. instead of a
clearing where the money should have
landed. That bit of jungle since has
been searched many times. but the
money haS4not, been found. The ground
is swampy, and the treasure probably
sank into the mud and water.
/. In addition to delivering money fol-
pay rolls, airplanes carry tools, equip
ment and supplies from Tampico to the
oil fields and make frequent special
flights with oil men passengers to and
from the fields.
