HIGHWAY WORKERS
TOD|G UNTIL SNOW
Public Construction Program
Bids Fair to Reach Total
of 81, 900, 600, 900.
nY the Annoclnted prom.

BY the Associated Press
Thousands of the men employed on
the expanded highway construction
program are expected by the admins
tration to swing picks and shovels
almost until the snow flies.
A tapering OF on projects will begin
IN September, but the reduction In the
number at work viii go forward after
st has stopped IN the colder North.
Congress sought to aid the IDLE last
session by increasing the regular Fed
eral aid appropriation from $75.00O,OOO
70 sf25 600 900 and advancing an emer-
Rency fund of $50, 100000 to be repaid
BY states over a period OF years. II
also appropriated $12.000.00o for roads
and trails in national parks and forests.
294,734 Were at Work in June.
These funds together with State APP
preparations have given employment to
many thousands. Figures for June ob-
tanned by the Presidents Committee on
Employment showed Z14.1S4 men AT
work in 81 States.
At the beginning of the year it was
estimated that 81 900, 100000 would be
spent by the Federal and State govern
ments and that another s1,000,000,000
would be expended by county, municipal
and township agencies.
The former program. on the basis of
contracts under way or already COM
pleted. bids fair to approximate $1,000
000, 600 No figures on county. munich
pal and township expenditures are avail
able.
Active projects under way on August
In the Federal sid program totaled
$442, SOC. 900.
Funds to Lapse September /.
Congress inserted q provision in the
$50 900 900 emergency appropriation that
all unexpended funds lapse on September
/. This was done so that the emergency
work would be started much earlier IN
the Spring Most States applied for
their portions of this money so that 1t
would be earned by that date.
States, in arranging for early applica-
ton of the emergency money. provided
that work after September / would be
completed through expenditure Of regu-
lar Federal aid allotments and State
funds
Approximately s30,oo0,o 900 of Federal
aid money remained to be applied on
projects on August !. Millions more
probably are available in State treas
uries.
The Committee on Employment and
other Washington officials are agreed
that the emergency program has stimu-
lated employment. None. however, would
comment on what Congress might be
asked to do next year.

FAIR GOLFERS
IN NATIONAL
TITLE PLAY
By NAN O'REILLY


WTLLIAMSVILLE, N. Y, Sept.
21.-Mrs. Glenna Collett Ware
faced a brilliant field of women
golfers today as she started the
battle for her sixth women's ma
tional golf championship.
Some of the leading American
women golfers begin play in the
national tourney today and
among the outstanding of the IS
challengers is Enid Wilson, the
British open titleholder. This
tourney will mark the English
stars debut in America.
Among the chief American con-
terSlers for the 1881 crown may
be listed Helen Hicks, of Hew-
lett, N. Y. winner this year Of
the women'S eastern, the metro
politan and the new state titles,
Virginia Van VIE, Chicago, who
finished second to Mrs. Ware in
1929, and Maureen Orcutt, of
EngleWood, N. j., the only Ameri-
can player to shine in the 1881
British open.
Then, too, there are such
veterans and capable threats
as Mrs. LeOna Pressler, Mrs.
o. S. Hill, western champion,
and Mrs. Marion Turpie Lake,
southern champion.
Miss Marion Hollis, Los An
geles; Dorothy Campbell Hurd
and Mrs. Helen B. Stetson, of
Philadelphia, former titleholder,
may not be overlooked in casting
about for list of likely winners.
The tournament starts today
with a qualifying round of 18
holes, with 80 players who sur
vive. It will end on Saturday
with two survivors of four rounds
of match play with a 36-hole
final for the championship.
Miss Bernice Wall, Oshkosh,
Wis, and Mrs. Leo Federman,
New York, will be the first pair
to tee off this morning. The
course measures CATS yards and
the par is 81. All but six holes
are par S and the others are
three par IS and three par Is.
The thirteenth hole is the longest,
535 yards.
Mrs. Ware, Miss Hicks and Miss
Orcutt were favored by many to
be right at the top throughout
the tourney as the course favors
hard drivers such as they are. It
is flat with shallow Swales and
much liked by long iron players.

ONLY PITCHER
On STAFF To
GET BONUS:
BY GARRETT WATERS

When Gen. Alvin Crowder
stepped to the mound against the
Chicago White SoK in the first
game of yesterdays double-header,
he had one other aim in view in
addition to his hopes of gaining
his ninth straight and his eigh-
teenth pitching triumps OF the
season.
It was earning a $1,000 bonus,
which Uncle Clark Griffith prom
ised him at the start of the cam
paign. The General had to turn
in 18 victories in order to get his
dough, and by winning yesterday
he did just that.
The bonus to Crowder furthers
policy begun last year by Griff
when several members Of the
teams pitching staff received ad-
ditional compensation for winning
a certain number of games. Only
Crowder gets bonus this year,
however.
Reviewing the veterans rec
ord for the season, Crowder has
had to pitch many winning
games during the past month
to approach his IS.
The incentive of winning has
been a big help to the Griffmen
as his work will bring out.
The General was of little value
to his team earlier in the season.
! In fact, so erratic was his work,
that Manager Johnson was afraid
to depend upon him at times.
But Crowder has shown him
self a real pitcher during the
past month or two. The bonus
idea has probably helped a great
deal, although he has always
been known to be a strong fin
isher in his career. He finished
powerfully last year, it will be re-
membered, after experiencing q
terribly weak time of it in the
early games.
CrOwder's exact record for
the season reads 18 victories
against 10 losses.
Single games with the Chicago
White Sox today and tomorrow,
four contests at New York
against the Yankees beginning
Wednesday and lasting through
Saturday, and a tussle with the
Boston Red Sox at Griffith Sta
dium. That's the program for
the Griffs this week, the last of
the season.
"And a mighty tough pro-
gram," says Manager Walter
johnson, who realizes the i'm
pOrtance of winning every game
at this time. "The close bat
tie now on for second place
makes it absolutely necessary
that we win every contest be-
fore us, as no letup looms in
the play of the Yanks. They're
certainly putting up a power
full fight. I'll say right here
that we're out to play just as
powerfully, as we want that
runnerS-up berth as much as
they do, and really more, now
that we're in third place."
The Griffs certainly face a
tough time ahead with the Yanks
going so powerfully. The McCar.
thy teams exact record for the
past 10 days is 10 straight-noth-
ing short of an inspiring record
for a club out to gain what little
recognition is left to this years
pennant race.
There is an exceptionally strong
reason why such a tough road
faces the Griffs at this time. The
Yanks always have been known
to be a money club. With plenty
of cash before them in this bat
tie, even though it is only one
for second place, plenty of fight
is expected to be shown by them,
if the dope on past performances
rings tr1ln at all

ton into the outfield, has seen
the most action. Weaver made
his debut while the Griffs were
battling the Chicago White Sox
in double-header yesterday. An
drus got his baptism of fire in
Saturdays final contest against
the Detroit Tigers, while Phelps
has performed intermittently all
week in pinch-hitting roles.
Gill Hits $50
The conclusion on the shoWingS
Of these players at this time is
that all of them no doubt will
be helpful to Manager Walter
Johnson in the near future or,
better, next year, when the period
OF preseason training will have
made them more adjusted TO
things.
To date, Gill, in five games,
has hit to the tune of $50. In
20 times at bat he has collected
five hits, scored one run, driven
across three and SOcked out two
doubles. Probably not the best
record in the world, but paSSa-
bic for yOungSter making his
debut under the most trying of
conditions.
In the field the former Oriole
has handled himself splendidly.
In fact, several of his catches
have bordered on the sensational,
while he has shown a powerful
arm. In all fairness, the young
Ster shows promise, but his future
Will be so much more promising
If he can only sock the ball, as
his record in the International
League tells he can.
Weaver's showing yesterday was
another of those paSsable cases
His pitching, which was excep-
tionally strong in spots, gave
every indication that Uncle Clark
