Foiling the Racketeer

One way to foil the racketeer, evidently, IS to re-
fuse TO be afraid Of him. Two tough guys" from
Detroit dropped down 10 Cleveland the other day,
looking for a little easy money. They looked up q
well-to-do merchant, found that he had a 6-year-oid
son. and proceeded to call the merchant up by tele-
phone. Unless he paid them $4,000, they said, they
would kidnap his son and bomb his store.
This scheme usually works. but this time it didn't
Instead Of getting scared. the merchant called the
police. The two tough guys were arrested within
IL hours. and now cells in Ohios terrible penitentiary
are prepared for them.
The racketeer's method Of operation Is chiefly bluff
If the bluff is called promptly it is the racketeer that
gets into trouble, not the victim.

RALEIGH, N. C.-Religion is an
important factor in this years
North Carolina politics and reli-
gious elements may be decisive IN
both the senatorial primaries and
the election.
The Catholicism Of Al Smith and
John j. Raskob, which was import
ant in 1923, is not playing such a
direct part in the Democratic
primary contest between Senator
Simmons and Josiah William Bailey.
Nevertheless, it is being used 70
some extent against Bailey under
the surface.
Simmons is relying on a heavy
church vote" 10 save his political
skin. His people have been point
ing out to the preachers Of the
state that the senator was loyal
to the Protestant prohibition cause
in 1928 when It required the utmost
bravery and that a man shouldn't
be defeated for that.
Both Are Very Dry
Bailey's record as a lifelong
active Baptist, on the other hand,
IS being emphasized by the anti
Simmons faction. Bailey followers
and Simmons followers, alike, are
making desperate efforts to con-
vince the church people that their
man has the best prohibition
record.
For North Carolina is a dry,
Christian state. Even in the Lit
erary Digest poll 1t cast q major
ity for enforcement of prohibition.
Demonstrating the way political
campaigns are sometimes waged
in North Carolina n may con-
slider the platform Of the Rev.
Henry Grady Dorsett. the first man
to file for the Republican senatorial
primaries. The Rev. Mr.. Dorsett Is
a man of extraordinary versatility.
He has been in Republican politics

office but generally being defeated
He Is now both pastor of a cotton
mill church and operator Of a hotel

Rev. Mr.. Dorset features an en-

Jones Is Declared Fit
And Is Picked to Win

MINNEAPOLIS, July 9 CCPA)-
The writer fancies Bobby Jones'
chances of winning the open golf
championship. Bobby has the APP
pearance Of the physically At ath-
lete and condition counts for quite
as much in the long 72-hole battle
as in any other branch of COM
petitive sport.
Over the past few seasons Jones
has conditioned himself only casual
ly for the open. His preparations
consisted of few practice rounds
and tuning up of his short game.
Often he was dog tired when he APP
preached the final round and the
Slumps he suffered at Olympia Fields
and Winged Foot may be attributed
to bodily fatigue as much as any
thing else.
But it is different this year. He
appears to be every bit as we'll con-
ditioned as Gallant Fox, another
ruler of the turf. Bob's face is a
rudy brown and he has a slimness
of figure not seen in several Sum-
mers. His eyes are sparkling, and If
he is tired he most carefully con-
ceals the fact.
Anticipating the heavy campaign
he was to undertake this year, Bobby
trained himself methodically all

1T DON'T see how It is possible to

Indian Spring was talking to Maj
Richard D. Newman. superintendent of

Country Club. Major, how did YOU
do it. These greens are absolutely per-
feet. All the same speed, all the same
texture, and all equally good Not
bad spot in any of them. How on
earth did you do it?"
Maj. Newman is man with a great
deal of experience in golf and with
golfers. He started the game away
back in the mauve decade, before Bob
by Jones was born, when Jerry Travers,
Walter j. Travis, Max Behr, Findlay
Douglas and Chandler Egan ruled the
amateur roost.
We'll, George, I know you're not
kidding me-" he replied, and added
with modesty, they are pretty good,
But 1 suspect, George that your put
ting greens at Indian Spring are Just
as sooo. lney may be OF different
texture, but they are Just as good to
putt on, and 1 don't think they have
those tricky undulations near the cup
that our green's have"
George Diffenbaugh was not the only
pro among the score who played at the
service club the other day who marveled
at those fine putting green's. They all

more they marveled; Maj Newman has
done the seemingly impossible in bring

the peak of perfection. Today those
putting surfaces at the service club GER
tainly are the equal of any around
Washington, and equally certainly they
are better than those at some of the
courses.
