Star Women Clash For

TEXARKANA, May 3-(P-The
spectacular golf Of Mrs. c. c. Cary

the steady game of Mrs. L. w. Ma
gruder Of Waco in a SO hole grind
to decide the women's golf cham
pionship Of Texas.
Mrs. Cary, former champion Of
Washington state ard a compare
lively recent addition to Dallas golf
ing circles, won her semi-final
match two up from Mrs. O. B.
Stuart of Texarkana. The Dallas
city champion was forced to shoot
a perfect five on the eighteenth
hole to take the match.
The deadly iron shots of Mrs.
Magruder, which gave her one putt
on each of three greens, carried her
to an easier victory, 5 and 3. over
Mrs. Theo Won Knoop OF Houston.
Opinion was about evenly divided
as to the potable winner. The fact
that Mrs. Cary defeated last years
champion, Mrs. z. =. Pharr Of Tex

she took her victory only on the
eighteenth green. and Mrs. Ma

TEAMS REPORTED READY
 FOR TITLE SCRAP SUNDAY
Pawnees and Blues to Settle Long Standing Feud On Gridiron at Memorial Field - Squads Have Been Put Through Strenuous Practice Sessions All Week
 Blues Stage Secret Workouts-Both Elevens to Use New Plays-Triangles in Preliminary Contest.

With reports from the camps of the Pawnees and the New Britain Blues football teams that both squads are fit and ready for their battle Sunday at Memorial Field in Willow Brook park for the semi pro championship of the city, every thing appears in readiness for the scrap that will settle for the pres ent season at least the bitter foot ball feud that exists between the two clubs.
 There will be no offering of the olive branch on either side before the game Sunday afternoon. Each team is out to win and they don't mean maybe. The quarrel goes on apace. The two managers. like the proverbial alley cats, demanded a bond from each other and upon the refusal of each, all but squared off tor a personal scrap. The team members refuse to speak to mem bers Of the opposite camp on the street and things all point 10 a bitter battle Sunday afternoon.
 An armed truce exists until the game time. however, but then the lid will be off and there is no telling what might happen. Man ager Ralph Recano of the Blues facetiously remarked last night that Manager Otto Barta of the Pawnees better have an ambulance at the field 10 carry away the maimed and wounded during the contest. Barta retorted with the statement that Recano better stock up on bandages and liniment because his team is go- ing to be beat in more ways than one.
 The game Sunday will get under way at 2:30 o'clock. There will be a preliminary between the Triangles and the Plainville Blues. This will be started at 1:15 o'clock so that the teams will be able to play slight ly longer periods than at first planned.
 That there will be a big crowd on hand to watch these two tartars of the football field scrap Sunday, goes without saying. The two clubs have been practicing faithfully all week long. The Blues have been holding secret workouts and both teams will use new plays in the game.
 The Pawnees will practice at e:30 o'clock Sunday morning al Willow Brook park and will perfect signals and plays for the game in the after noon.

 KILLING POULTRY
SeIeCtman Hamlin Warns 0Wn-
 CTS to Protect Their Stock

Aroused by the fact that the city Of New Britain is forced 10 pay an unusual amount Of damage to own CTS Of chickens and Belgian harcs due to the activities of dogs. First Selectman George V Hamlin today made a request that precautions be taken to protect live stock
 In recent weeks residents in the northern section of this city have complained that dogs have killed chickens and rabbits in great numbers. MT Iamlin has investi- gated and so far this week it has been necessary for him 10 recom- mend the payment Of $50.
 Complaints have come from New Britainites who live from the New ington town line across the northern section to Myrtle street One spot that is especially affected is bounded by Fremont. I.aWlor and Wilcox streets. Mir. Hamlin requests that any persons who have had stock killed by dogs communicate with him, Information that may lead 10 the apprehension of the animals would be thankfully received.
 According to the first selcctman large dogs throw their weight against the wire fences about chicken GOODS and after forcing an opening kill the chickens. Under the state law the city is not fnan- cially responsible for rabbits killed.
 One property owner whose stock Of rabbits was practically wiped out. set a trap the next day al the sug- gestion of Mir. Hamlin and caught the dog. The animal was killed by the dog warden. Mr. Hamlin sug- gests that those who are being af- fected by these dogs set a trap in side the wire. He warns against setting it outside the chicken yard because of the possibility Of innocent dogs being caught.
