EVIDENCE Of
LOST RACE
Were Fusion of Eskimo
Indians But Were Com.
pIeteIy 0bIiterated

Traces Of a new race, dis
tantly connected with both the
Indian and the Eskimo, were
uncarthed by DR.. Ales Hrdlicka
of the National Museum during
his stay on Kodiak Island in
southwestern Alaska this sum-
mer.
DR.. Hrdlicka returned to Wash
ington after his summers explor.
alton trip yesterday with packing
cases full of relics of this newly
discovered race.
He declared:
"It is a new chronological ele-
ment and one that promises to
be very interesting. Apparently
the peoples existed in thou
sands upon the island some
thousand or fifteen hundred
years ago. And then vanished
leaving only buried traces Of
their long occupancy of the
territory"
Strangely enough, according to
DR.. Hrdlicka, this vanished race
failed to mingle, as is the GUS
tom of conquered races, with
those who succeeded them. They
were there one day, apparently,
and the next day they were gone.
There was no blending and no
transition between the two periods.
Their successors were branch
of the AleutS, one of the most
numerous of the Alaskan tribes.
The Aleuts, of whom there
we're some 10000 on the island
when it was discovered by the
Russians, have been reduced un-
til today DR.. Hrdlicka was able
to find only seven full-blooded
men of the tribe on the island.
The entire population of the
island was less than 400.
Says DR.. Hrdlicka:
"As usual, the white man
brought death and disease, wip-
ing out the entire tribe"

Secretary Of War Hurley
is obviously rather reckless
in the use of his sacred
word of honor. "
Senator Duncan U. Fletcher
of Florida, ranking Democrat
on the Senate Military Affairs
Committee, voiced this opinion
today in discussing conflict
ing reports on the firing of
bonus marchers' shacks by
soldiers.
He referred to Hurley's state
ment made at the American Le-
gion convention in Portland,
Ore, on Tuesday when the Sec
retary said ION my sacred word
of honor no soldier fired any OF
those billetS in Washington. "
Acting Secretary of War Payne
last night declared that "pos-
sibly the soldiers did have or
ders from their superior officers
to fire some of the huts."
Senator Fletcher said:
81 was not in the city when
the evacuation occurred and
have only read reports of the
situation. But from the .Obvi-
OusIy conflicting reports made
by Hurley and his subOrdi-
mates one might reach any one
Of a number Of conclusions.
There is, however, an ap-
parent conflict in the state
ments. Hurley should be more
certain of his facts before he
becomes so reckless i'm the use
of his sacred word of honor
not only as regards this event
but on other matters as WE'LL"

we come out of it we can go back
where we were in 1928. This is more
or less the official stand; even Mr..
Hoover once spoke of getting back

pleasant prospect if you are run

economists are not running for office

know that the old job will be-or
at least ought to be-different when

Ford says in the current Pictorial Re-

of American business, politics and fl

symbolizes American industry to the

Baseball writers expect this ser- les to. determine whether the Tanks have gone into a slump. whe- ther Dickey's suspension has been a serious. blow, and whether Bucky Harris Tigers are to be considered as serious pennant contenders.
 Although Manager Joe. McCar- they has the reliable Arndt Jorgens to substitute for Dickey behind the bat, Marse Joe believes that the in- definite banishment of his ace- back-stop will prove a telling wall lop at the Tanks pennant hopes.
 Knows His Stuff
 Jorgens demonstrated timely Iit- ting ability when he played recent ly against the Athletics and Boston Red Sox. but Mccarthy claims there's only one bill Dickey.
 The Tanks have beaten the Tig- CTS in five of their six games this season, but the Tigers have been playing improved baseball during the past few weeks.
 Only two games were scheduled in the National League yesterday and none in the American League.
 The Pitsburg Pirates stretched their first-place National lead to two full games over the runner-up Boston Braves by taking 4-3 de- cision ove rthe New York Giants. dropping the Giants to seventh place. The idle Brooklyn Dodgers replaced New York in sixth posi- tion.
 Nicely Done
 Di11 Crr,ift hA right-hander, singled in the tenth inning to score Suhr with the win- ming run. Swift yielded nine hits, while the Pirates found Bill Walk CT for 13. The Cincinnati Reds maed 1t three in row over the St Louis Cardinals by winning, 12 to 4. BMabe Herman drove out a home run for Cincinnati in the sixth inning, and his teammate. Ernie Lombardi, did likewise in the ninth.

Come back slowly - that is one of the first things any golf pro- fessional will tell a beginner. And when a good golf player gets "off his game" and goes back to his teacher for advice, he often finds that he has forgotten that first simple lesson.
 There are two principal reasons for coming back slowly. The first is that sharp backswing will throw the player off balance for the shot. frequently causing him to hit the ball before he can shift the weight back from his right foot.
 The second is that a sharp backswing is impossible if the player is properly relaxed. On the other hand, slow backswing IS an aid in attaining the proper re- Taxation.
 Tension will cause a sharp backswing, just as a sharp back swing will bring tension. When- ever you notice that you are bringing your club back too rap idly, you should concentrate on a slow, easy sweep away from the ball. You will find that your ten- sion is gone, that you flee" your club better and that you do not have plunge at the ball for dis tancs.

Twenty years ago, Europe was en- tertained by giant Sac and Fox Indians amazing display of skill in the Olympic decathlon. The red man was Jim Thorpe, greatest In- dian athlete of modern times.
 Today another aborigine stands ready to try his skill in an Olym- pic decathlon, that grueling test of mans ability in 10 track and field events. He is Wilson Gus ter) Charles, Jr., Oneida tribes man, son of a famous Indian ath- lete, and former national cham pion in the 10-event test.
 By finishing second with 737S.S7 points i'm final trials conducted at Chicago June 24-25, Charles won his place on the American team and the chance to duplicate the feats of Thorpe. Buster often has been called a second Jim Thorpe. His performances at the Los Anse- him as worthy of the title, or just another pretender.
 While student at Haskell in- stitute in 1890, Buster won the national decathlon title at Pitts burg. He scored 7313.34s points. For Haskell, Charles was track team by himself. in addition to being valuable member of the schools football and basketball teams.
 The Oneida tribesman entered the University of New Mexico last year and immediately began to cut loose in football. He was seriously injured and forced to lie in a plast- CT cast that held in place three fractured vertebrae. During his period of convalesence throughout the winter Buster made his plans. They were to make the Olympic team-and beat the records Jim Thorpe made at Stockholm in 1912.

 New York, July 6-The New York State Athletic commission sliced itself a mess of misery tree top tall yesterday when 1t ruled that in the future only experts may yodel into the microphones at boxing bouts and wretling matches held under it's August Jurisdiction.
 This, we understand, was slap at radio announcers in general and Graham McNamee and "Socker" Coe, who handled the recent Shar- key-Schmeling ring-around-the TO- sic, in particular. It seems there were so many yowls over the man. ner in which this fight was de- scribed, that the commission felt 1t must do something to protect the listeners.
 The Boys Are Improving
 Personally, I found nothing wrong with Goes and McNamee's handling of the fight. Coe had Schmeling all the way, and judging by the mighty storm of protest that arose when the verdict went the other way, he wasn't alone in his opinion. Too. Goes line (which ne repeated over and over) about two fine, young specimens of manhood, clean, 1.-the and strong" was very appealing. Particularly to those persons who knew Sharkey and that balloon tire roll of suet that hangs over his tummy. And Me- Namee-well McNamee has im- improved. You could tell it was Cov 1P Q~h xoI rr about. and he never once men, cut" and terrific blow on the back"
 According to the commissions wrestling sports writers, referees announcers. Just what does the commission mean by boxing and wrestling sports writers?" Report CTS that wrestle and box?
 Anyhow, who said a boxing writer was necessarily boxing ex- pert? I write boxing and heaven knows I'm no expert. And the guy who calls me a wrestling expert better smile when he says 1t. Or weigh more than 163, stripped, on the Liggett drug store scales at Broadway and 42nd. For them's fighting words, pardner. Wrestling expert! Lawdy. I'd just as lief be a cat show judge. Wrong Guy
 The commissions action un- doubtedly arose from the fact that quite often the fighter the announ- cers have winning from gong to gong. fails to take the decision This causes the listeners to won- der what's the matter with the referee and judges. Will the plac- ing of boxing writers, referees and judges on the air correct this? doubt it. for these gentlemen sell dom if ever see a fight alike. Which is only natural, when you remember that in a scrap between evenly matched men. many rounds are SC close they can be scored either way.
 Too, your boxing writer is a Ioi more likely to be biased than a layman. Most of them make SC. lection the day before the fight And while they would not inten. tionally give their pick the best things, they would be less than hu. man if they didn't have e tend. ency to favor their choice.
 And as for wrestling and judges l-weil. those guys ain't supposed to see.
 I planned to end this thing with a wise crack about Kate Smith or Bing Crosby. but couldn't think of one. So make one up yourself

 ISLAND TOURNEY
Recent Conqueror of Vines Reaches Quarter Finals Women Favorites Ad- vance

Providence, R. l., July 6-(UP) - Third round play for places in the quarter finals was scheduled today in the Rhode Island mems singles championships on the Agawam Hunt Club grass courts.
 Martin Buxby of New York, University of Texas junior, who recently defeated Ellsworth Vines in a Texas tournament, was the only contestant to reach the quarter-finals in yesterdays play. He breezed through a first round match. skipped the second through a default, and came from behind to defeat Alexander M. Persons of Worcester. Mass, 4-6, 6-4, GO, to win his third: round match. .
 With the exception of J. Gilbert Hall of East Orange, N. J., third seeded. who defaulted, and Jack Tidball of Los Angeles. seventh seeded, who advanced through a default, all seeded stars won yes terday's matches without diffi- culty.

RepeateuIy ne naN pidyeO HuuCH" es that seem to have planned out right most of the time.
 Thus, at Auga Caliente, in the Open of 1890. He stroked the first II holes in 49. Remembering he had done the same thing at Skokie when he first won the National Open in 1922. Gene remarked, "That's a hunch. I'm in." And he was.
 Courage.
 At Fresh Meadow a mean putt on the ninth hole of the third round would mean a birdie two. Turning to one of the U. s. G. A. officials, he quietly said:
 "I'm going to run this putt down for a two and come back in 32 strokes.
 Gently rubbing the face of his butter with his left hand-a little superstitious habit-he rapped the putt home. Not only did he come in in 32, but set a world record by shooting the next 17 holes in 100, or eight under fours.
 Many golfers believe he is lucky. Rather, he loves to take chances and make his own breaks. On the third hole at Fresh Meadow, 391-yard par four, he scored the first birdie of that record-break- ing round of 66 by taking the short cut over the trees at the left of the fairway. His drive found the center of the fairway. An easy pitch to the green and short putt gave him his birdie.
 He gambled frequently when he won the Open in 1922. Playing the last hole he needed a four for a 68, His tee shot split the fair way and was good for 230 yards. He found himself with a hanging. downhill lie, 250 yards from a guarded green. The average golf CT knows he never should play brassie on a downhill lie.
 But Sarazen did. Keeling off a brassie shot, he cleared the water hazard and traps and rolled to the green, 20 fet past the pin. It has an easy four and it meant the championship, as Jones came in with 2S9, one stroke behind sara zen.
 Gambler.
 During the British Open he re- DeaIeQly TeIuSeu' IIe duNlCc oL iio caddy, Lucky" Daniels.
 q wanted him to take no chances" said Daniels, "but when I would offer him a mashie-niblick to get out of the rough, he would cali for spoon. No other man would dare to do that. But he would land the ball right on the green"
 His talisman is a necktie, adorn- ed with huge question mark a gift from his wife. His play seems to answer that question: and any others that may be asked this year.
 Sarazen Is the Jack Dempsey of golf, a free hitter with a terrific punch. In the final round at Fresh Meadow, he gambled on power, hitting with all he had and the average golfer knows that swinging into ball with all your force is chance-taking of the high est kind.
 His campaigning for 1892 is far from ended. He is entered in the Western Open at Cleveland, which he won in 1880, the Canadian Open, and his favorite event, the P. G. A., which he has won twice. A clean sweep will mean that the Emperor Jones will have to move over and make room on that we'll known pedestal.
