Mcleod Faces 10Th Open Qualifying Round
IST QUALIFIED
IN 1908 FOR
GOLF TITLE
Nv GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
The national open golf qualify
ing rounds are a matter of rou-
tine business for Freddy Mcleod.
veteran pro at the Columbia Coun-
try Club.
Mcleod, recently banqueted by
friends on his fiftieth birthday,
has competed in % qualifying
rounds for the national open
championship, failing to qualify
only four times.
His twenty-ninth appearance IN
the qualifying rounds takes place
Monday when a group Of IS pros
and amateurs from the Middle
Atlantic district, embracing the
District, Maryland and Virginia,
play SO holes at medal compe-
tition over the par II Congress
sional Country Club course.
First Qualified in 1903
Mcleod, short in size but long
in golf skill and experience, first
qualified for the national open
in 1908, shortly after coming to
this country from his native home,
North Berwick, Scotland.
He has qualified "a times for
this major championship, missing
out in 1922, 1923. 1925 and 1927.
There was no championship in
1918. the war year, though a
patriotic event was held.
The wee Scot captured the ma
tional open in 1908, outlasting
Willie Smith in a playoff at
Myopia outside Boston. He has
never been closer than second
since, finishing runner-up to Long
Jim Barnes when the open was
staged at the Columbia Country
Club in 1921.
Third in 1914
He was third to Walter Hagen
in 1914, Chick Evans, the amateur,
taking the place. He was fourth
in 1910 and 1911, one stroke be-
hind the three who tied for first.
In 1910, Alex Smith beSted his
brother, Mac Smith, and Johnny
I 1-cDermott in the playoff. The
following year, McDermott out
scored George Simpson and Mike
Brady in the playoff.
The veteran has thirsted "a
years for another national ope
championship. There is every
reason to expect Mcleod to safely
qualify this year and he will have
practically every golfer in Wash
ington pulling for him to come
through again when the big push
begins June % at the Fresh Mea-
dow Club, Flushing, L. I.

AL SMITHS FUTURE

The entire country is asking the ques-
ton as to just where Alfred E. Smith is go
ing to find the proper place in the Rosse-
vet administration.
A study of the career of Mr.. Smith
might serve to convince the people that
ZAP will probably find his own place. His
dominant personality and tremendous
ability would be shackled in a cabi-
net office. ZAP Smith is leader and a
constructive statesman. His place is not in
the cabinet, but in the halls of legislation.
Alfred E. Smith would be boon to the
country in the senate Of the United States.
He would be at home there. His per-
sonality, administrative ability and states
manship would be of the greatest value to
the nation if exercised in the legislative
branch OF the, government at Washing
|! ton.
The appointment of Senator Copeland
to either an ambassadorship or a cabinet
position would provide the necessary
vacancy. Senator Copeland facing fight
against Jimmy Wadsworth two years
from now, might view the suggestion
favorably.
What senator Smith would make
What show J e would make of the sham
dignitaries of the upper legislative branch!
A plain man of the people, yet man
trained in the affairs of state, man skilled
in political leadership, a man with keen
sense of humor and lightning rapidity of
thought, Smith would drive some of our
political liabilities to the tall timbers.
One can imagine the ponderous Borah
crossing swords with Senator Smith. Borah
would not last minute. The eItraD e. of
Smith into the United States senate would
be the signal for the withdrawal from ac-
ton of the majority of the pompous "stuf-
fed shirts" of the senate. The shafts of
ridicule that Smith woula hurl at their pre-
tensions and assumptions would be fatal
Dignity is the chief asset of many Of
these legislators and dignity is about the
only thing they possess. It is the cloak that
covers mediocrity which otherwise would
be plainly apparent.

A CAMPAIGN PROMISE

Among the campaign promises of the
democratic party was that of reducing ex-
penses of the federal government 25 per
cent. A fulfillment of that promise would
be welcomed by vast majority of the
American people, and it will be interesting
to observe the methods whereby such a. pro-
gram of retrenchment may be made effec-
tive.
1t is usually most difficult to eliminate
or curtail any governmental activity or ex-
penditure once it has been established, be-
cause attempts to do so are invariably met
with strong resistance on the part of those
who. would be affected by measures OF
economy.
In fact, the various departments,
bureaus, boards and commissions OF the
government are constantly crying for more
approximations, and the same is true OF all
other groups and interests which receive
money from the public purse. By combin-
ing forces these groups can usually obtain
increases, or at least prevent decreases,
through the highly developed American
device known as "log-rolling."
To resist the pressure brought to bear
from these various organizations and
groups generally requires more of courage
and patriotism than is possessed by the
average senator or congressman.
But, regardless of party affiliations,
every thoughtful citizen should approve,
and support to the extent of his ability, all
reasonable measures for reducing the cost
of government.

BANK CREDIT EXPANSION

According to Leonard P. Ayres, a
leading American banker and economist,
Member banks of the Federal Reserve
System now have reserves that are not only
substantially III excess OF those required by
law. but are rapidly increasing.
"Thus for the first time in the depres-
sion. banks are in position to pursue a
policy of credit expansion, and their excess
reserves constitute potent influence in
that direction"
A good many. citizens have been won
dering when bank credit would loosen UP
and let Uncle Sans financial relief per-
colate down to the lower levels. II that
time has arrived. il is an encouraging thing
for thousands of businesses and millions of
families. 50. -

the snake, has a much higher heat

the snake, has much higher heat
production.
Here again the animal having the
richer blood supply and better blood
distribution has the larger heat pro-
duction and is living at a higher level
of vital activity, even though its body
temperature is greatly depressed. Such
variations are not found with humans.
A certain amount of fluctuation in the
body temperature of humans does take
place, however, under abnormal con-
ditions resulting in fever. Therefore,
it is of direct value, in interpreting the
laws governing heat production and
heat loss of humans. to study animals
showing such marked changes as the
incubating python, the red-hesheo tor
toise and the alternating Woodchuck.
From such studies we may hope to
solve some of the still unanswered prob
lens of human physiology"
Some of the heat measurements TAX
en- by DR. Benedict required the use of
a thermocouple. the same delicate cleo
trical device which is used to measure
the temperature of planets millions Of
miles distant in space which was in
troduced against the snakes body at
the end of long bamboo pole. 1t was
vital that the temperature be taken
without arousing the reptile to activity.
Many of the snakes used in the expert
ment, he reports, were highly irritable
and dangerous to handle, SO that the
manipulation of the thermocouple had
to be continually on the lookout for a
vicious lunge.
When a snake is mad, DR.. Benedict
found, it is really hot" Its tempera-
ture will go up as much as 10 degrees
above that of its environment. But
the reptile cools off again quickly and
within a few hours. at the most, its
body heat may go down even slightly
below that of the surrounding air.
There also may be slight rise in tenn
perature when the snake is digesting
his dinner Then the internal heat
producing processes of the body are. at
the height of their activity although
the reptile itself may be perfectly quiet.
