HITS &C., 70 SCORES
FOR CLUB RECORDS
Low Card Unofficial, but
Former G. U. Star Got Par
in Competition.

NE ANY noted golfers from the
M amateur and professional
v i ranks have played over
the rugged golf course Of
Washington Golf and Country
Club, over in Virginia, where the
hills slope down toward the Poto-
mac, but of them all Maurice j..
Mccarthy, the husky New York
youngster, who attended George
town University, has been the one
definitely and finally to put par in
its place.
There are two types of course records
for golf courses and Mccarthy holds
them both at Washington. The former
GEORGETOWN basket ball and golf star
not only is the holder Of the unoffcial
course record of 66 whacks, but he also
IS the only man who has been able 10
equal the present course par OF 70
strokes in a medal play competition.
His SIS mark, five under par, made
on September %. 1927, has been shot
at repeatedly by many professional
and amateur stars, but no one has tied
it. even though three players have been
within a stroke of equaling McCarthy's
mark
Great Golfers Miss Mark.
Bobby Jones, Gene Sarazen, John
Farrell, Tommy Armour, Archie Com
ston, Watts Gum, Jimmie Ockenden and
Roland Mackenzie are few Of the stars
who have played the course and not one
OF them has done the tough Virginia
layout in better than 70 strokes in the
matches In which they played. But
i've years ago when Maurice MCCARTHY
was developing the game that later
brought him the intercollegiate cham
pionship and two metropolitan amateur
titles he was at his best at washington
His course record of Sc came on day
when Davie Thomson, the club pro and
most persistent seeker after McCarthy,s
record, was playing with him, and is
a remarkable exhibition Of consistency
and brilliance. The eighth hole was
then a par affair, and at that hole
came one Of McCarthys six brides. He
PLAYED the out nine in IS strokes ana

 The new windblown bob shows a fringe on one side of the head with the rest of the hair softly waved backward and downward.
 While it is expected there will be more bobbed heads than ever be- fore, three new fashions have been created for long hair. Long hair must be thinned out and formed into a low knot that does not conceal the shape of the head; or divided into two parts which may be folded into flat little buns. The coronet style is suggested for very long hair.

POLITICS

The present furor over war debt; is sure to have an echo of one kino or another in the '32 campaign, but prospects of a clear-cut issue be tween the two parties seem effec- lively squelched.

 Apparently the verdict has beer accepted as final, too, at the White House and State Department. Pres ident Hoover suggested some read justments might be wise, but h. carefully avoided proposing eithe7 reduction or cancellation. Now h. IS not disputing the stand taker by Congress.

Something euery smoker

. Absolutely pure -. that's what you ex- pect in the things you eat and drink -. and in the cigarettes you smoke.
 "Chesterfelds are as pure as the water you drink" a noted scientist writes. There's no way to make purer cigarette.
 Starting with tobaccos the ripest, finest, purest leaf that grows is selected for Chesterfelds. Mild to start with. :. Cross-Blending makes it tmilder still. Then it's wrapped in paper that is so pure it burns without any taste or odor.
 The phrase Systematically Purer" is entirely justified. By our use of highly scientific process which was worked out by Dr. Paul Gross, the Head Chemist of our Research Department, Chesterfield reaches state of purity unmatched, to our knowledge, by any other cigarette.
 In addition, scientists check every in- gredient, every method. Even the factory air is washed, and changed every AZ minutes. More purity!
 Notice, too, the clean, white, attractive package |. i. moisture-proof. Chesterfelds come to you as good and as pure as they're made. Good i. they've got to be good! Change to Chesterfelds and see.

Many hairdressers say the long bob will be best, because it lends itself more particularly to indi- vidual treatment and is in keeping with the current apparel mode. Flat little plastic curls at the back of the head, and little rolls at the side, as well as the back of the neck, are emphasized.
 Combs, pins ana ornaments will complement most of the evening coiffures. These may be simple of shell or celluloid, or they will be brilliantly encrusted with gems.

1ss2-1sss EGG PRODUCTION
NOT EXPECTED TO EXCEED
SEASON OF 1931-1932

The total production of eggs in the
United States this fall and winter is
not expected to be larger than during
the season of 1931-ls32, according to
Timely Economic Information for
Washington Farmers" which has Just
come from the state college press.
Storage stocks of both eggs and
poultry are low. The usual seasonal
rise in egg prices is expected. On the
&gkar hand, there is four to five per
q Ii increase in the number OF layers
and feed prices are low.
1t is possible that liberal feeding
may cause larger egg production than
anticipated, but this is unlikely unless
conditions are unusually favorable,
Poultry production in the far western
sections has been decreasing for the
past year, while production in the
northeastern states is increasing This
trend will likely continue until prices
are brought into more normal adj
justment.

open September 9Th. Buses will oper'
ate over the same routes and on thu
same schedule as last year. There
has been no change IN the high schoo
faculty with the exception of the
resignation of Miss Lawen. Her work
is being absorbed by the remaining
members of the teaching staff.
Mr.. Robertson Is requesting that
freshmen and all other new students
come to the high school on Saturday
to register. All others registered last
spring before the dismissal of school
1t is hoped that by attending to regis
tration problems before Tuesd v
school may start off in regular order
on the first day. It Is desirable that
parents come Saturday to the school
with their children and consult with
members of the faculty about the
selection of courses and subjects for
their children.
Many inquiries from post graduates
indicate that many of those who have
graduated from this high school will
return for additional work. The large
number who graduated from the 9th
grade last spring, virtually ell OF
whom will attend high school, assures
us of an increased enrolment.
The Island grammar schools will
open next Tuesday, September 9Th
with the personnel Of the teaching
corps unchanged in all schools except
Columbia and Dockton.
