MORE OFFICES
NEED FILLING
Moody Has Appointments
Still To Be Made;
Auditor One

AUSTIN, July 6.-Gov. Dan Moo
dy, who recently has filled vacanies
in the University of Texas board of
regents, the teacher college board,
the board Of water engineers and
the prison commission, and named
le nine-member judicial council,
still has many other official ap-
pcintments to make in the near fu-
ure.
Heading this list is the selection
of a state auditor, to set up a new
department of government. The au-
ditor will represent the germinal
principle of civil service, according
to Governor Moody's statements.
The law creating the office is now
In effect, but Gov. Moody said he
will take his time to hunt someone
to head the department who is not
an applicant for the job.
Governor Moody also is to ap-
point the third member Of the new
board of pardons and paroles. and
reappoint the two present members
who constitute the pardon board.
These appointments will be made eff
fective about Sept. i.
The nine-member state game
commission, replacing the present
game department administered by
n man, will be appointed before
Sept. 1. Former State Sen. A. z.
Wood of Austin is known to be
scheduled for appointment as chair
ma and Will j. Tucker, present
commissioner, as executive secretary
in the new set-up.
Governor Moody also will appoint
the nine-member state board of ed
ducation, created under authority
of a constitutional amendment to
replace the present three-member
ex-officio board of which the gov
ernor Is chairman. When he names
this board he will abolish the state
textbook board, the ley law substi-
tuting an advisory book committee
to be named by the new board Of
education.
If the nine-member supreme court
amendment is adopted at the cleo
ton July Is, Governor Moody likely
will have the appointment of six
members of the court as soon as a
subsequent legislative session passes
an enabling act.
Governor Moody will have the
appointment of a six-member board
of pharmacy.
Next January 1, he will be called
upon to appoint a member Of the
board of control to a six-year term,
the term of Chairman R. B. Wal
thall, Neff appointee, then expiring.
A provision that would have
barred State Supt. S. M. N. Mars
from future terms was stricken by
the last legislature from a correc-
tive department of education bill.
That said no individual who there
tofore or in future accepted cam
paign contributions from represen-
tatives of textbook companies would
be eligible. The heretofore" was
stricken out. Superintendent Mars
said a representative of a book COM
pany had personally made a con-
tribution to one Of his former cam
paigns without his knowledge at
the time.

AUSTIN, July 6.-Judge Walter
Acker Of Houston, only remaining
member of the gray-clad hosts Of
the Confederacy in the Texas leg
islature, came to his first session
of the lawmaking body in a horse
drawn stagecoatch, he revealed tt
q group Of friends recently.
But he will not ride back from
this, probably his last session as q
matter of his own choice, in ar
airplane, he declared.
Suggestion was made that the
airplane trip would be arranged.
mo, sir" he responded.
But the veteran judge and legis-
lator who rode to Austin in a
stagecoach for the 18th session OF
the legislature as years ago, is q
staunch believer in airplanes, and
has ridden in them.
He just doesn't want any theatre
cal touch about his public service
he indicated.
The last remaining southern war
rior in the lawmaking body OF
Texas has served through the past
three legislatures, neither time
making any campaign or asking a
soul" to vote for. him.
He wants to retire now, because
he has personal interests to look
after and because serving in the
legislature involves a financial sac
rifice, he let it be known.
Judge Acker early this year wa
taken i'll while here for the regular
session of the legislature. He was
taken TO a hospital but insisted
that he be moved out to the hos
pital at the Confederate home.
where he might be among his old
time comrades-at-arms.

Unlikely to Be Held This Year

since the Country Club Of Virginia was
to hold the vomen's State champion
ship. 1t could not stage two big Vonen's
championships in one year. So that
was that. Since that time various
overt,ires have been made to various
clubs In the n1id-Atlsntic sector. and 1t
has been found that the same unan-
unity of opinion still exists. No club
seems TO want the championship.
The logical place for the title event
TO be held Is At Washington club.
Last year the event was held at Viz
ginia Beach. and the year before 1t was
PLAYED at Congressional. while In 1925,
its frst year. II was PLAYED at the Bal
tin1ore Country Club. Since it appears
plain that the clubs do not care to
entertain the woman golfers. and. in
view of the apparent apathy of the
woman PLAYERS toward the champion
ship. It is entirely possible that the as
ISOLATION may abandon the event en-
tirely. To do so would be bad thing.
but the facts speak for themselves, sc-
cording to association officials and
there appears to be no help for Sit
uation that brings only 30 women to
the biggest event of championship ma
t,lre in this section Of the country.
Never since 1t was started has the mid
Atlantic championship had more tna m
80 entries. And now. since place 10
hold it has not been forthcoming, 1t
may be given up.
Virginia Holzderber Of the Baltimore
Country Club. is the present title
holder. having won the event by a dis
play Of scintillating golf over the Prin-
cess Anne course last october. In the
final Miss Holzderber set course rec
ord Of 80, and won easily.

BY the Asseciated Press.
- OUTHAMPTON, N. Y, August g.
Big Bill Ttlden Is not yet ready
to retire from an active life on
~ the courts and give sage advice
to the youth Of the country, but
the youngsters well may proht by
the example Of dynamic athletic energy
the veteran has afforded them In his
one day here.
In a solid eight hours on the turf
courts of the Meadow Club 11lden
played q total Of four matches. COM
prising no less than II sets and 13s
games.
Big Bill does not 60 20 far as TO
recommend as heavy program as this
for every aspiring young tennis player
In the land, but he thinks that "the
more tennis Is played In this country
the sooner the United States Is going to
get back the Davis Cup
On the subject Of the famous inter-
NIT himself further than to declare
Johnny Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison.
winners of the doubles in the challenge
round against the French, "ene of the
very good doubles team Of this genera
ton" and TO announce that Junior
Coen. the Kansas City youngster. will be
heard from in the national champion
ship before many more seasons.
The lanky Philadelphia had neither
explanations nor alibis for the defeat
of the American team by Coehet.
Borotra and company.
The French are too strong for VS.
lust now" he said How long their
grip will last no one can predict ac-
curstely. Lacoste was kept out Of the
challenge round by Illness. but can ac-
eurately state remembering Coehets
straight set victory over me, that Henry
never was better than he is today"
AS for himself, Big Bill made II
clear that while he does not expect to
engage In any more Davis Cup tennis,
largely for the reason that he thinks
he probably would not be able to
make the team" he has no thought of
giving up tennis for fun"
This was the spirit in which he en-
tered the doubles phase Of the Meadow
Club invitation tournament here. Ar
irving on the next to the last day Of
the competition. Big Bill first played
a couple Of warm-up sets with I'd
Feibleman Of New York. then PLAYED
three straight matches Of doubles with
Frank Hunter as his partner, one of
these goirg to Ave sets and lasting
three hours, at the end of which time
Big Bill vss apparently the strongest
player on the court.
