of the eighteenth amendment TO the
Constitution, any one familiar with tie
ethics of administrative government
knows that a purpose to enforce the
law is more essential than q plan.
Theodore Roosevelt, who enforced the
Sunday law in New York, could take
the law as 1t is and dry UP the country
in 80 days. We need prize-winning
President more than a prlze-Wlnnlng
plan.
IF Congress will create new cabinet
portfolio to be known as the department
of public welfare, with q capable nead
responsible only to the President, ana
coordinate the activities Of the Bureau
Of Prohibition, the Bureau OF Customs
and the Coast Guard under one head,
and the incoming President will put the
same energy behind enforcement that
he put behind food conservation and
flood relief, we will have prohibition IN
fact in the early months OF the next
administration, and thus carry out the
overwhelming mandate Of the American
people in the last election" MI. Howard
asserted.
Would Start with Capital
Rev. DR.. w. S. Abernethy, pastor of
Calvary Baptist Church, wrote in a let
ter that was made public at the con-
ference: Here In the Nations Capital
it is of the utmost importance that it
be demonstrated whether or not the
law of the land relating to liquor can
be enforced. If it cannot be enforced
here, we might as well resign ourselves
to the belief that it cannot be enforced
anywhere.
Taking as her topic what the Demo-
cratic Drys Expect of Mr.. Hoover"
Mrs. Jesse w. Nicholson, president and
chairman of the speakers bureau of
the National Woman's Democratic Law
Enforcement League and editor Of the
Woman Voter, told the gathering, in
discussing the recent presidential cam
paign: 1T was dry victory. The peo-
pie, regardless of party, spoke in thun-
der tones. They have given to Herbert
Hoover a command as well as a COM
mission No leader can do his or her
best when their followers doubt their
sincerity in the performance of their
duties"
In the resolution adopted, the mass
meeting called upon all citizens "to
adopt as their standard of patriotism
for the year 1929 observance of law
and allegiance to the Constitution.

 New York. June :5.-LA1Thom- as D. Armour. Tommy" to hts friends. is one of the half dozen former champions who will try to re- peat in the open at Winged Foot.
 The Scot. who was an amateur star on his native heath before com ing to the United States, won the title at Oakmont in 1927 in . play oil with Harry Cooper. sensational westerner, now stationed in New York state.
 Armour won the play-off with an 1s hole score of 76 to 7s for Cooper and had to come from behind to grab the coveted title. He was . stroke behind going to the fifteenth: Here he dropped . putt of approxi- mately 50 feet to make the affair all even and forged ahead with another good putt at the sixteenth. At the seventeenth Tommy made one of the greatest shots an open competition has seen. Playing first. Cooper sent perfect approach within inches Of the pin and seemed about to recover the ground he had lost on the last hole. Armour had a chance to play safe and let the de- cision rest on the home hole. He scorned a safety first' plan end went boldly for the pin. His ball stopped inside Cooper's and broke the heart of the boy from the gold cn west.
 The black Scot had tied Cooper the day before with a wonderful putt of some 12 feet on the 7ed green of the regular championship round.
 Defending his title last year. Ar mour went the way of most cham pions and finished sixteenth. He was born at Edinburgh in 1895. He won the French amateur championship in 1920 and reached the third round of the American championship the same year. He became a professional in 1925.

SEVEN AMERICANS i REMAIN IN PLAY
Racquet Widdts Battle h.
 British Tennis Tourney

Wimbledon, Eng. June 25 N- Seven American racquet wielders had fought their way into the sec,. ond round of tine mems singles tn the British tennis cham pionships to- day and were looking for. more worlds to conquer.
 1 The first day of play on Wtmble. don's famous courts yesterday found only one American falling by. the waysiGe. He was Ed Chandler, who as a student at California held the intercollegiate championship in 1925 and 1926. Chandler succumbed to the superior playing of Wilmer Ali, son of Texas. who held the inter- collegiate title in 1927.
 All the other American cracks. fsig Bill Tllden, Frank Hunter. GeorGs Lott, John Van Ryn. John Hen~. nessey and Wilbur Coen were ready for their second round tests today.
 Van Ryn was confronted with the sternest hurdle in the person of Jacques Brugnon of France, essen tially doubles player but no roe to be treated lightly at singles com- petition. Hunter also had . tough nut" to crack in H. w. tBunnyl Austin, one of the most promising of English players. Lott was pairr ed with the Belgian, l.. De Borman;- rilden with C. H. Campbell of Eng land: Hennessey with J. s. Worth. ington, of England: Coen with C. I. Robbins of South Africa and Allison with the Hon. Cooper Of England. l Helen Wills first test in defense of her Women's title was to come from. Miss G. E. Tomblin. Helen Jacobs was paired against Mrs. A. Weave of the former Californian now living iQ South Africa and Elizabeth Ryan. England, with Miss D. Anderson of Great Britain. Lili de Alvarez. the | ileve, wilt reach the final round against Miss Wills. drew Mrs. Bruce as her first round opponent.
 Tilden's play in the first round drew warm praise from the experts who pronounced him in better form than last year. Some even predict he will regain the championship ha held in 1920 and 1921. The sever- ity and accuracy of his backhand shots were dazzling and his play de:'
 
 lighted everybody" said Sporting Lite's expert.
 Van Ryn's play also greatly i'm pressed expert watchers. He was de. clared to have five equals and his cleverncss and quickness were de- cribed enthusiastically. Lott and Hennessey also came i'd | for considerable praise while Coen's free forehand drive and speed brought the declaration from some critics that he was the greatest play er of his age in the world.

BURKE SHOOTS 70
 AT WINGED FOOT
Connecticut Pro Will Win Open if He Keeps Up Good Work

New York. June :5 R-One Bill not win the national open golf championship at the Winged Foot club at Mamaroneck. N. Y.. this week-in fact the odds are rather mere than 50 to 1 against tt--but he needs to do no better than he has done in practice to be well up among the leaders.
 The young Connecticut pro, who iistanced the field in winning the 72 hole New York state open last week, toured around the rugged Winged Foot layout yesterday in 70 and then to prove that it was no luke he went around again in exact- iy the same figures. It might be mentioned here that par for this difficult course is 7c-36 out and 36 in.
 It does not take a lot of figuring to calculate that four rounds of 70 would make a total of 2S0 strokes. Experts have figured that 296 or stroke or two more will be gooo enough to win the open this year. If they are right. Burke has a lot of margin to work on.
 On the other hand the 76's of practice become the sos of actual championship competition whe ! youngsters and veterans alike crack wide open under the fierce strain. Nobody is hastening to concede tn :, crown. now worn by Johnny Farrell. 10 Burke just because of a pair of 70's but on the other hand the ex- perts are not ignoring the Westport youth either.
 Burke was not the only one of the 153 entrants out for practice. Play ing oft the tees, around the greens and out of traps and bunkers were such golfing celebrities as Bobby

 Jones. who already has scored a 6S and 70 in practice at Winged Foot, did nothing like that yester- day. He was busy getting all the had shots out of his system before the open starts on Thursday.

Speaking of s orts

Fight fans in this section are al picking Paolino Uscudun to defeat Max Schmelins when this pair clashes Thursday night in the fsa- ture bout of the milk fund card in New York. Schmeling. hailed as second Dempsey. is ss yet untried. and for that reason. hasn't wormed his way into the confidence of the dEht followers.
 The 6paniard is an enigma to most everyone. He is tough and can stand . lot of punishment and if he is able to do the same thing against Schm cling, it is very probable that schmeling might find himself on the losing end. When a hghter shoots everything he has and lands, and the other fellow takes 1t with smile. that generally kills the heart Sn the aggressor.
 Johnny Clinch ts to meet YounK Oliver of Bridgeport in the main bout of the second open air show of the season in Bristol Friday night. Johnny is fast becoming 8 favorite in state light circles. He has polish cd of hve opponents by knockouts otnce he hAs turned professional.
 His left hand, a terrific uppercut 1p the body. is his strongest weapon and he uses it effectively. Johnny can send these punches in one after an6ther and no matter how tough his opponents come. they fail to stand up under the terrific bom- bardment he sends in.
 Kid Reney of this city. midget strong man. is conner in the ranks. He is strong and fast and although only pint-sized. he makes his op- ponents tremble. Punches roll oh him like water off ducks back and his quick and powerful punch ing has cut many another bigger fel- low down.
 Bernie Flood met a defeat at the hands of Frankie Nicholas of Tor rington last Thursday night. Flood sained q decision over the Torring- ton boy in a fierce fight in this city last winter but Nicholas improved greatly since that time.
 Bristol turned out a fair-sized crowd for the bouts last Thursday night and this coming Friday. there should be large delegation of Cltnch rooters from this city. John- ny is a favorite with 2 large circle of fans and because he is to face the toughest opponent in some time his packers will be out strong to watch him so through his paces.
 Many are planning on going to Hartford tonight to see the Tony Leto-Mtke Esposito battle in Hart ford. These two are rivals for 8 chance al Bat Battaiino and the winner has been promised a crack at the state featherweight champion.
 Stanley Works and Corbins battle tonight at 5:30 o'clock in the Indus- trial league. This should be one of the best battles of the year because both outfits are over anxious to win.
 The Sacred Heart baseball team will practice tonight from to s o'clock ut the Washington school diamond.
