HOUSTON, May 24-tR-w. Q.
Hunt OF Houston today won the
amateur golf championship of Texas
by defeating CASTOR Peek Of Gal
weston one up in the thirty six hole
final round.
For 80 years Hunt has been school,
ing himself for this day.
There was a still drama In the
finish. A gallery Of 800 stood scarcely
breathing as Hunt, a small and care
full man addressed his ball IN the
edge OF a trap. His stick came down
sharply and the ball rolled over
the hill within eight inches OF the
pin. 1t was his third stroke and
Peek conceded him a four.
2-Inch Miss
The Galveston player. who had
been eight feet shy Of the pin with
his third, laid his next within two
inches Of the flag. He grinned and
rushed over to grasp Hunts hand.
Two more inches and he would have
won the hole, squaring the match.
On the 29th hole he was four down
and, leaving there. he began a bril-
liant rally which put worry lines
In the veterans face. He took the
next hole with a par four. They
halved the 31st and on the 32nd

ANDREE RESEARCH
FUND IS STARTED
Swedish Society for An
thropoIogy and Geography
Sponsors Move.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, october ia special
Andree fund to support future geograph-
ical research has been started in Stock
holm under the auspices of the Swedish
Society for Anthropology and Geog-
raphy, of which the explorer Solomon
August Andree was a member.
The first contribution came from
the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten
of Oslo, which gave 10000 crowns
(about $4,000, from the sale OF DR..
Gunnar Horns personal story OF the
discovery of the lost expedition, dis
tributed in the United States by the
Associated Press.
An appeal for further contributions
has been sent out by Sweden's lead
ing geographers, Gerhard de Geer, Sven
Hedin and Prof. Nils Lithberg.
The hackers of the fund, including
the surviving relatives of the three
explorers, expect that other funds will
be derived from the sale of memorial
volume, including Andree's diary, now
under preparation in Stockholm.
This book will be issued about De-
cember / in nine different countries.
It will contain Andree'S own account
of the preparations for the trip as
well as his diary before and after
the actual start, of which part has
already been published under the aus
pices of the Swedish Geographical
Society.
There also will be extracts from Nils
Strindberg's notes and reproductions
of the maps he drew. The final chap
tiers will be written by DR.. Horn and
Knut Studsendorff, leaders of the two
expeditions which found the relics at
White Island this Summer. This book
will be published in the United States
by the Viking Press.
