had putt Of three feet. She missed. Again
she tried and again her ball refused to 60 down,
It went straight to the cup, trembled and lay
on the outer rim. Trying to smother her irrfa
tation, the girl strobe up to the ball, thrust at
it with her putter and missed it completely.
She lost not only the match but her disposition

I EADERS in other branches of sport in which
l. women are becoming keen competitors
share the opinion of Miss Wills that women
will never quite equal men in competition.
Glenna Collett Is one Of the greatest woman
golfers of the time and undoubtedly can beat
many male stars the links, yet she con-
cedes that women will not measure up to the
Sterner sex in tournaments. Each advancing
year finds increasing numbers of woman golf
erS, and there has been q tremendous improve
ment in their game; but again, physical stam-
ina, speed and strength are essentials in golf
just as in any other sport. In addition, and
perhaps Of more importance, however, is tenn
permanent and the ability to be q good loser,
Miss Collect stresses the latter point one
greatly to be desired among woman golfers.
Miss Collect cites two instances to stress the
point Of good craftsmanship. I'm an amateur
championship match o few years ago." she
said, Bobby Jones and George Vosi>Em were
playing nip and tuck. On the seventeenth
green Bobby noticed that Won Elm was dis
tracted by the swaying crowd Of $4,000 while
he was preparing to putt out. Bobby walked
over and picked up the ball, saying: Here.
George, I'll concede this one.
"On the next hole it was turn about. Bobby
was settling down to q ee-and-a-half- foot
putt The crowd was bothering him. Won Elm
rushed across the green and knocked the ball
aside, allowing Bobby to halve the hole There
IS the element Of good sportsmanship."

their general standard is not as high as our
own. In fact, feel very hopeful with regard
to the tennis of American women, as I find
we have several very promising players coming
along.
There is, for instance Sara Palfrey young
girl of II, who is by far best young player
as well as being q very pretty and attractive
girl. She played on our cup team at Wimble-
don last year.
THEN there are Miss Cross and Miss Jacobs,
well known abroad, and lastly q young
California girl, Miss Burkhardt, who did not
represent America last year, as she Is far too
young, but who. in my opinion, has brilliant
tennis career before her.
So you see have some reason for my opti-
misn, for, though France will probably re-
main, where men are concerned, the first
tennis nation, it is going to be very hard to
beat American women In match play even If
We do not manage to produce a Lii Alvarez
in style and stroke production.
French women are lucky in having the Pre-
Catalan courts to play on in Paris, as con-
slider them easily the best in the world. I do
not quite know what their composition IS, but
anyway they are ideal for helping one to de-
velop fast game, and think that these and
other courts Of the same kind that you find IN
France are partly responsible for the quickness
Of the French games.

G. L. Young will appear for the

to resist any efforts to materially
tamper with the provisions of the bill
p. w. Lanier, Jamestown, will ap.
pear for the group seeking to move
the capital to their home city.
The Jamestown effort will be d.
rected toward eliminating the emer-

removing the clause which specifics
that the new capitol building shall be
located at Bismarck.
Petitions for removal of the state
capital to Jamestown were being cir
culated at Devils Lake Wednesday.
Solicitors claimed they had obtained
