30 MILLION SPENT
FOR GOLD BY j. S.
Price of Domestic Metal
Remains Same-MuCh
Buying Abroad.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Newly mined domestic gold again
was worth $34.01 an ounce today, as
the Government pushed its expendi-
lures for the metal past the $50 900 900
mark.
Approximately s15,Ooo,ooo of this
sum has gone to the domestic mining
industry. But the rest, as shown by
figures issuing from the White House
and Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton, apparently has been spent in for
eign markets in furthering President
Roosevelt's plan for raising commodity
prices.
It was the fourteenth successive busi-
ness day on which the Government has
held to the $34.0l figure, the high
point reached December /.
The White House indicated the ex-
tent Of foreign purchases when it stated
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion had set aside additional funds for
gold purchases, and was dipping into
the new money. The original allot-
ment was $50,000,0 900. The second was
5000, 900.
Just when the extensive foreign pur-
chases were made was not disclosed,

Dollar Fluctuates.
The dollar has fluctuated at London
recently from as strong as $5.03 to the
pound to as weak as $5.17. Today it
open at $5.10h, falling of to $5.l3k
in early trading. On the opening ster-
ling quotation, bar gold was worth
$32.25 an ounce.
First revelation Of the extent of for
eign operations emphasized this phase
OF the Presidents program as prob
able subject Of discussion at this

ences. Mr.. Roosevelt has conferred
with Acting Secretary Morgenthau
Gov. Eugene Black OF the Federal Re-
serve Board, Jesse Jones, r. F. C.
chairman; George L. Harrison, governor
OF the New York Federal Reserve Bank
and Fred I. Kent, director Of foreign
exchange at the New York Reserve
Bank.
In view of the fact that Jones two

'Tis more than a tradition Of golf
that the home club pro seldom wins his

Houghton could leave Kenwood a week
before the event and show up just In
time to start on the morning OF Satur-
day. November IL, he could win. He
can play as well as any man entered
in the event and. in addition. he knows
the course like well-thumbed book.
But AL will again be too busy taking
care of the boys, arranging details for
them and otherwise being the good
host Last year. with his mind full OF
everything but playing winning golf. he
finished seventh. This year. if he could
get away from the scene Of battle for Z
few days Immediately prior to the toAr

likely to happen. He will be busy again
keeping everything moving In the

PAR NEVER BEATEN
| IN BIG EVENT THERE
May Give Way to Onslaught
of Pro Stars in Third
Open Tourney.
BY w, r. McCALLUM.

TT APPEARS to be an easy golf
course and in all truth it is
i easier than many of the lay
outs on which the national
open has been played. But that
deceptive layout of the Kenwood
Golf and Country Club, straddling
both sides of the River road in
nearby Maryland, has repulsed
the best efforts of the leading
professional golfers of the Nation
and stands today as one of the few
courses on which the sharpshoot-
ers have been unable to break par
in a major tourney.
They will have another fling at Ken
wood a little more than two weeks
hence-some $50 Of them-and the
odds again are against any man shat
tering par on the course, which has
been played in better than the par OF
70 many times and yet has steadily
turned back the leading shotmakers of
the Nation in their efforts to beat per
feet" figures in the big tourney.
Two National Capital open cham
pionship events have been played and
the total of the winning scores in them
Farlane, the bespectacled Scot from
Tuckahoe, N. Y, won the 1881 tourney
with total of 2l4, four shots above the
par of 2l0 for three rounds Of the
course.
ITORTON SMITH, the tall pine from
II Missouri, won the tourney last
year with a total of PIG. six shots
above par. And although par has been
shattered in both events for single
round, no man has keen able to stick
along at par pace for 54 holes. The
deceptive Kenwood course. which has
on it one Of the longest par 4 affairs to
be found anywhere and also one OF the
lengthiest par holes on any layout,
has consistently turned back the thrusts
of the leading fairway prospectors in
their search for par scores,
Back in 1881 Tommy Armour pulled
his cap down low over his ears and shot
the course in 68 to set competitive
record that still stands. Last year
Horton Smith blazed a subpar trail
over the last round to win, scoring
SO to cop the tourney by two strokes
from Denny Shute. But par remains
inviolate over the 54-hole stretch that
constitutes the National Capital open
tournament.
This year, if good weather conditions
prevail. par may be shattered for the
first time. For the field on November
IL and II will be the fastest that ever
has competed in Washingtons biggest
professional tourney. All the leading
pros of the Nation, including the Brit
ish open champion. the P. G.. A. title
holder, last years winner and group
of stars with enough class to constitute
who's who" Of professional golf, will
be there.
And still it isn't likely that any one
of the group will be able to score four
rounds with an average better than 20.
Al Houghton, the host club pro, has
played the course score of times in
better than 10. He made a 63 one day

apothecary, was setting 'em up at the
soda fountain in celebration OF wnat
Norman did last night for the Smyser
Pharmacy team in the Recreation
League.
The biggest single game Of the season
was chalked up by young Smith when'
with four straight strikes as the big
punch, he rolled 185.
His other scores were 80 and 95 for
379 set.
While Smith was adding to the
long list of sensational scores
rolled at the Recreation, the Sol
Herz0g team was winning the odd
game from Sims Music Studios
to take sole possession Of the
league lead.
And Brad Mandley of the Quacks was
outscoring Smith for the evening with
a set of AIT.
Perhaps the most famous game rolled
at the Recreation was the 2l0 string
of AL Work, scored or 10 years
ago. Although the southpaw's game
was the highest rolled up to that time,
it was never recognized, because not
achieved in official competition. Never
theless, most of it was shot under pres
sure and with equipment much more
difficult to score with than that now
used. At the seventh box Al was so far
in front his opponents quit. and he fin
ished the string alone.
