r Step aside, older golfers, and

The juveniles were sounding
this warning today and point to
their fast scoring during yester-
days match play rounds in the an

at the Indian Spring Country
Club.
The course, slowed by recent
rains, was easily fathomed by the
youngsters who are crowding
more matured players for honors.
These lads revere neither par nor
regulations Of their elders.
There was Harvey johnson, OF
Columbia, who passed the turn in
a "a, one under par, to be four up
on young Merle Thorpe, jr., Chevy
Chase, in the second round in the
afternoon. A four at the ninth,
which he lost, cost johnson a 33.
Unruffled by his foes sub-par
blast, Thorpe won the tenth, elev-
enth and twelfth to become but
one down. They halved the next
five holes, johnson winning the
eighteenth when Thorpe played
wretchedly from the grassy part
around the green. johnson coursed
the back nine in 80 for 73, two
over par.
Another was Jack Higgins,
Indian Spring youngster, who
ratified off a IS to annihilate
Dick Wilmer, Chevy Chase, and

on Billy Rochelle. Indian Spring,

that he is anxious to tie up with
Marty Gallagher, Foggy Bottom
Irishrnan, who scored q tech
nical k. o. over Petrin'S pudgy
rival for State honors, Tony Ca

months ago though outweighed
by more than 40 pounds.
The Jersey flash also wants
another chance at Matte Brown,
Washington's heavyweight title
holder, to whom he lost a de-
cision last month. He Is conf
dent he can beat either Gal
lagher or Brown in a fair fight.
Petrin suggests that local
Judges watch closer for fouls,
particularly butting, and score
the round as lost to the violator,
as the District boxing rules re-
quire. Brown butted him con-
tinually, he claims. Also the
commission should enforce its
rule more strictly against
fighters entering the ring with
out foul proof cups.

Tells of Yule Savings.
In his report for the Advertising
Committee. Chairman Eliot H. Thom-
son spoke particularly of the success
attained by the Christmas Savings
Clubs conducted by l8 banks, against
% in the previous year. While the
results showed a recession from the
1882 high mark and the figures for
1888, yet the 18 banks operating this
year enrolled 55.307 members, who
subscribed a total to be paid in Of
S4.362 l60.
While the reduction in the interest
rate was not stressed during the cam
paign. Chairman Thomson expressed
the opinion that the reduction caused
many former Christmas Savings Club
enthusiasts to prefer regular savings
accounts. Experience of other cities
in the past indicates, Mr.. Thomson
added, that the interest-small as it
is-conStitutes a major incentive for
membership.
Continuing his report, the chairman
recalled that on the evening of April
9 this year all the banks in Washing
ton received a telegram from the Sec
retary of the Treasury asking their
cooperation in reaching the holders
of called Fourth Liberty bonds. The
president of the Bankers Association
Immediately requested action by the
Advertising Committee. and an adver-
tisement offering the services of the
banks for the exchange Of the bonds
appeared in all the Washington pa
pers. In addition. Mr.. Thomson
stated, the financial editors of the
newspapers gave the subject most
timely news attention.
In conclusion, the Advertising Com
