burr OF COLUMBIA
EARNS RECOGNITION
Makes Shot From Ditch That
Brings Him a Par 3 and
Some EmoIumentS.
BY WALTER r. McCALLUM.

'HERE are lots OF ways TO
make par on a hole on any
i golf course, and there are
plenty of golfers around
Washington who win matches be-
cause they don't give up because
they have made a bad shot.
Over at Washington there is v.
c. Dickey, the man who has at
tanned the club sobriquet Of one
who never gives up," and at Con-
gressional there is Jack McCarron,
who always hopes for, and fire.
quently gets, the shot that gives
him a half on a hole he seemed
certain to lose.
And out at Columbia there is a new
candidate for the hopeful title, in none
other than Harry w. Burr, who looks
like the late President Wilson, swings
from the port side on the tee and
through the fairway and talks a good
game of golf in addition to playing 1t.
Calvert Bowie tells the yarn that
brings Burr into the class Of those gents
who never give up. It seems that Burr
had been having unusual success in get
ting par on the 145-yard sixteenth hole
at Columbia. He had been putting his
tee shot on the green with unfailing
regularity and getting down in the
requisite two puts for his par.
So when he stepped up to the tee the
other day he fully expected to get his
par 8, and to bring the point home
more impressively to his three COL
leagues, he offered them all 2 to l he
would make par on the hole. All of
them jumped aboard with both feet
for the bet, for the sixteenth hole at
Columbia is tricky, even though it is
not long. Then to make matters worse,
Harry bet Bowie that he would put his
tee shot on the green, and Bowie
climbed on board that one.
So Burr, loaded down with bets. care
fully took his stance and swung his
| mashie with that carefree abandon
that is the heritage of southpaw golfers.
The ball rose in a handsome arc high
above the rough and pumped into the
| tiny little water ditch that runs in
| front of the green with a soul-sickening
thud Now that ditch is only foot or

field and Colbert famed. This brought
up Grimes.
Now I am not going to say that Lefty
pitched poorly to the st. Louis pitcher,
or that he let up or held him too
cheaply, because he did not. Never
theless, Grimes singled cleanly to right
field. scoring the two runs, and, firm-
ly believe, winning the ball game on
this very hit.
If we had come out Of this inning
without st. Louis making a run 1t
would have made it an entirely diff
ferent sort Of q ball game. It makes
a big difference to a club to be playing
for two instead of four runs The style
of play has to be altered entirely. That
is why / am convinced that Burleigh
Grimes not only held us completely in
, subjecticn, but, with his bat, won his
own game on that particular ball.

Acting Secretary of State Cas-

Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile

There's a new significance in
new spring suits.
When you see them and try
them on, you'll agree that the
difference is a wonderful i'm.
provement. No danger Of being
mistaken for somebody's brother
in one of them! No more stiff,
severe lines and harsh, mannish
fabrics. They're the smartest
things we've seen, with dress
maker details that you'd expect
in fine frocks. The fabrics are
just as supple as those found in
frockS too. While they are
eternally feminine, they manage.
to convey a perfectly tailored
look at the same time.
Fabric Is ChOngella
The sketch is just what we've
been talking about. Suave,
feminine, with subtle, flattering
lines. Chongella, a spongy
wooden, as easily manipulated
as silk, is the fabric. In blue,
that clear, light navy called
skipper. The important tri-
color combination is stressed by
the red and white stitching
which edges the directoire
revers and forms the cuffs.
Four buttons define the double
breasted closing of the jacket,
which has fitted waist line
achieved by tiny seams.
Skirt Is Novel
Another new thing, is the
wrap-around skirt, a becoming,
and comfortable style. White,
red and blue may be used in
the blouses worn with this suit,
an ascot tie would look well
too, and with different acces-
sories, it will change into many
different suits. It is one Of the
first to be shown by one Of
our local shops.
Miss LaVilIe will gladly answer
any questions about this suit,
or fashions in general. Call
District $3.50, extension 165, or
write, lncIOSing q stamped, self
addressed envelope.
