WHAT WILL ROOSEVELT

The counties of Phillips. F1athead and Lincoln. o at least cities
within those counties, have volunteered to enlist officials who will
serve without pay on election boards at the special Gas Tax. Highway
Debenture election to be held May 6. This splendid idea, which in
cludes both economy and cooperation, was brought out by Governor Err
ickson. 1t is being well received and promises to spread over the state.
Free service by boards in all parts of the state would mean a tremend-
Gus saving to the state and would cost those who serve almost nothing
but their time. The canvass of the result will be the simplest possible
blanks-the work of a few minutes. If the men and women volunteer
ing lived near the polling places the cost of travel would be nearly
eliminated.
An organized campaign will be required to secure volunteers in
all precincts and commercial clubs or other organizations can under
take the management. Volunteers could offer their services direct
to the county board IT the clerk of the board, if they wished.
Once the idea is understood and takes root it will become con-
tagous. Roosevelt county complete surely wants to be enlisted.

CHECKUP URGED
ON ALL CARS

Now is the time the owner
should plan to have his car con-
ditioned and reconditioned for
spring, it is pointed out by Oscar
Coolican, local distributor, who
counselS motorists to have neces,
sary work done early in order to
avoid delays when maintenance
departments become more con-
gested next month. Mr.. Coolican
says:
ut is not too early to have
such work done at this time.
In a great many cases, owners
have not visited a service de.
partment for really complete
inspection and checking of their
cars since last fall. In the
months Of hard driving that
have elapsed, it is obvious that
certain things have taken place
about the car which make such
q visit advisable now"

Performance Tuesday

Chicago, Sept. 2-F-Bobby Jones
had plenty of high class golfing COM
pary with him in the gallery today
as the fight for the national amateur
championship entered into hand-to-
hand match play combat at Beverly.
Three former champions and at
least ten other we'll advertised fav-
orites were with him, victims OF the
upsetting So hole qualifying round
that ended in a rain storm yesterday.
Only one former titleholder, Francis
Quimet of Boston, who won the title
seventeen years ago, was left in the
picture which was dominated with at
least a score of youngsters below rs
years.
Even to the unfinished fight for
the medal, the young stars of Amer1-
can golf dominated the situation.
Charles Seaver of Los Angeles, a 20
year old SHOEMAKER with a reputation
from former golfing wars, and john
ny Lehman, "a year old Chicagoan,
who won the western amateur crown
at Beverly a year ago, were tied for
the honor with Arthur "Ducky"
Yates, the 268 pound behemoth of
the links from Rochester, N. Y, alld
the oldest of the three at IS years.
They were tied at 148, six shots over
par on the tough Beverly layout.
Lehman crowded in yesterday with
the only sub-par 10 of the qualifying
play after getting a shaky 70 on his
first round. Seaver and Yates each
scored a steady pair of N's.
Seaver and Yates were tossed to-
gether by the pairlngS to meet in the
feature match of the opening Is hole
match play tuss1e today and they had
an opportunity to settle part Of their
argument.
Only one foreign, threat was left
in the field as the match play tussle
started-C. Ross Somerville, Canad-
ian amateur champion. Cyril Tolley
and r. Philip Perkins. former cham
pions of England, were out along with
F. H. I. Brown, the hope of Honolulu.

got in via the IA man playoff for five
places-a playoff that lasted three

There wasn't any appreciable diff
ference between the two brackets.
Each had four capable seeded play

seeded players in the upper row;
