The average course has four l.

shot holes and FIVE par S holes, which
swing out beyond 500 yards. Two or
three OF these extend beyond $40 or
$50 And the big slasher who wants to
get home in two prodigious sYipes gets
all set and then suddenly remembers
there are trees and woodlands in add

consider the matter OF direction. Dis

hooked with direction. Nothing much
is gained in hitting TIE ball $50

In the second place there is nothing
nat about Beverly. It Is unusually roll
ing and dipping, with valleys and
plateaus. And above all else, Beverly
has its own watering system. which
prevents any baked-out fairway. The
ball gets no great run along the soft
ened turf, which makes its 6,700 yards
seem to be 1000 or more.

Tells How Manhattan
Saves You Money By
Saving Your Clothes

Present day laundry methods,
which preserve clothes as well as
clean them, are far superior to the
old home method Of rubbing and
scrubbing, according TO Mr. q. +.
Wesley, chief of the Research De-
partnnent of Manhattan Laundry.
Mr.. Wesley attributes a large part
of the Manhattan Laundry's sue
cess to their Net Bag System.
Manhattan's famous Net Bag
gystem of washing, as described 6y
Mr.. Wesley, follows: First, the
clothes are assorted according to
their color and material and placed
in individual net bags which bear
the customers name and contain
onlv that customers articles. safe
in the nets and protected from all
metal or other hard surfaces, the
clothes 20 into the washers. Here
they are subjected to the gentle
cleansing action of swirliHg hot
suds which penetrate each garment
and loosen every particle OF art
Onlv the purest of Palm Oil soaps
and soft, filtered water are used,

and tested by the Research Depart

Friday, he advised police last night.
They had seiaed him on the grounds OF
the Idaho Country Club. He was re-
leased yesterday on payment OF the
money. which was turned over TO his
abductors by his wife and James Z.
Blouin, a business associate.

from Friday to Sunday to raise the

on assurance that he would sign the

A full investigation was PROMISED Dy
Patrick Roche. chief investigator for
the States attorneys once who said
that. while he believed Hackett was
kidnapped, he doubted If the ransom
price was as high aS 9l6O.00O.
Hackett said he was trailed TO the
idaho Country Club by the gang in two
automobiles After winding gauze
bandages around his head to prevent
him from seeing, they drove him to q
house which he believed was IS or 20
miles away Later his wife was told
by the kidnapers over the telephone
that she would never see him again
unless the money was paid. She and
BIouin met the abductors on country
road. Hackett was freed short while
later near Meiroee Park after he had
been driven around In his own auto
mobile.
Belief was expressed by Hackett that
the kidnapers were afhliated with
national organization which makes
business of abducting wealthy men
and that they had been responsible for
other abductions, that on January
