NATIONAL BANNERS

The people of eastern Montana receiv-
ed a ROYAL reception by the people Of the
Queen City, Regina. No more cordial recep-
ton could be rendered to crowned heads
than that the good will tourists were accord
ed from the very moment they crossed the
line into the Dominion of Canada. AT every
hand the glad hand of welcome was extend
ed to these ge~t-acquainted folks; the Star
Spanqled banner floated side by side with
the Union Jack from the staff at the top OF
the Parliament building as we'll as adorned
the staff of the Saskatchewan hotel, and
along the streets which had been decorated
in honor Of the coming Of these ambassad-
ors of good will. The vast banquet room
where the American guests were entertained
bv the Government of Saskatchewan and
the City of Regina was beautifully decorat-
ed with flags and back of the speakers table
hung two enormous Canadian and United
States flags.
The people of Saskatchewan have full
filled their promise to build a good arterial
highway to connect the Regina territory
with that of eastern Montana. Only a few
years ago a visit to our Canadian neighbors
was fraught with difficulties in travelling
over dim prairie trails and the distance from
Plentyvood was far greater than it is now
when we can journey over a fine road.

 In And Out.
 From form displayed by both teams to date, neither one can con- fidently count on victory.

 Although the official announce ment was that Golden received first prize. and Von Elm second prize of $3.50O, it was generally understood that they pooled the sum and each took $6.750 and the play off was merely for the honor of winning the championship. In addition to the prize money, they divided the gate receipts for the playoff, about s1,- 900.

 Superior putting and remarkable recOveries out of traps enabled Col den to conquer Won Elm in the play off. Golden took the lead on the first hole with a birdie four, and was never behind although Von Elm evened the match on the eigth green.
 After drawing even, Won Elm cracked badly and tossed away a stroke on the ninth, two on the tenth. another on the 11th and still another on the 18th. Golden fin- ished with a 75. thres over par and Von Elm with 79. his worst round or the tournament by four strokes.
 Never once during the drab. unin- teresting playoff did Golden or Won Elm resembled a golfer playing for $6.5OO, the difference between first and second money. The whole af- an anti-climax to the four day tour nament.
 It was Golden's putting which enabled him to lead the field for two days. finish stroke behind "Wiffy" Cox, Brooklyn, at the end of the third day and wind up in tie with Won Elm at the 72-hold finish.
 Although Golden previously hadn't won a major tournament, he has held the New Jersey open cham pionship for the last three years. He was a member of the Ryder cup team in 1927 and 1929. and has never lost a match in that series,
