eighth hole of Course F, which ended
in the cup for one of the few aces
scored at the down-river layout this
year. The hole measures 103 yards in
length.
Holes in one are rarity this year.
Whether it is that play has dropped
of by large percentage, thereby reduc-
ing the possibility of aces is conjectural
but the plain facts are that 1892 has
not produced nearly as many holes in
one as there were last year. Both at
the private clubs and at the public
courses the multitude Of aces has drop

NEW DEAL ASKED FOR YOUTHS IN
 MISSILES OF LAW
Dorothy Brooks of Peeks= kill Appears Before the American Bar Ass0cia= ton to Explain Some Things

Washington, Oct 12-UP)-A new deal for youth caught in the meshes of the law was sought be fore the American Bar association today by Miss Dorothy Frooks o1 Peekskill, N. Y, who has won famo | in legal circles by her fight fol humane) criminal procedure. A study of juvenile dglinquencJ cases taking her through maize of underworld intrigues and 1T which three major trials figure | prominently has convinced Miss Brooks that young law breakers tc a large extent, are the tools of old CT criminals.
 The principal recommendatloi embodied in her report filed wltf the criminal sections of the bal association provides that no youth under 21 may plead guilty to q criminal charge. Before such a plea could be taken, 8 thorough investigation would be made at the direction o1 the trial judge. The precaution, she believes, will have the effect o1 preventing youths from pleading to the wrong charge.
 "It will also prevent youths from acting as decoys for criminal rings Opium, counterfeit, bombing ano liquor rings are being enriched bJ the use of boys and girls of clear record" Miss Brooks said.
 "It has even been known thai lawyers, instead of preparing a case in which there was no remunera- tion, have directed youths charged with crime to plead guilty so as to avoid the procedure and prepa- ration for trials"
 As a means of lessening crimes particularly those involving vio- lence, Miss Frook favors strictcr limitation of the sale of firearms immediate trial of those accused of crime, and remodeling of the police and judicial systems.
 The formal activities of the asso- citation convention began with ar address by President Guy A Thompson who urged that lawyers take the leadership to restore the laymans faith in the administra' tion of justice.
 Prohibition was blamed for tho rise of organized gangs in com mittee report before the crimina law section. Mass production ol liquor after prohibition led to un' derworld liquor rings the repor said, and these gangs reached ou and encompassed gambling, kidnap ing, bank robberies and other classes of crime"
 The report said alliances be tween gangsters and politicians soon placed the gangs in position to influence public officers and a times to use law enforcement ma. chinery for the "promotion ant advantage" of their illegal business Elimination of corrupt judges ant complete separation of police iron politics were recommended as pri- mary remedies.
