America is going to pay moro attention to women's golf this sea- son than ever before.
 Joyce Wethered's visit as pro- fessional after all these years will give the gals game the impetus it required. The British brunei was acknowledged to have been the greatest feminine shot maker in i history.
 Miss Wehered will find America with a three-time champion who now overshadows her rivals by the same distance that the four-time British titleholder did when she withdrew from tournament com petition in 1929. Her Eame Is Vir- ginia Van Vie.
 No American player is likely to unseat Miss Van Vie next fall, but from now on members of what perhaps is the finest field of younger players that any country ever boasted promise to extend her to the full extent of her flaw less form.
 It is this new group which wlE sustain interest after Miss Weth- cred has departed.
 So promising are these baby stars that the veteran Innis Brown, the nations ranking au- thority on rules, predicts that 20 American women will shoot In the 70's within five years. Foremost among them are Dor- othy Traung, Marion Miley, Lilly Harper, Betty Jameson, Patty Berg, Clara Calender, Marjorie Harrison, and Dorothy Kirby. Miss Traung Finalist
 in First Attempt
 Miss Traung was runner-up to Miss Van Vie in the national last autumn. It was Miss Traung's first attempt to lift this country's most important title. The San Francisco girl has the physique, time, and money.
 The most recent step forward by Miss Miley was victory over Peggy Wattles, medalist with a sub-par of 80, Tn the final of the Augusta invitation. In the quarter-flnals the Lexington lassie evened he" score with Jean Bauer, who beat her for this crown year ago.
 Miss Harper of Norfolk, Vir- ginia state champion at IS, elirii- mated Maureen Orcutt and Bernlce Wall from the Augusta invitation before lowing to Miss Wattles in the semi finals.
 Tho Misses Jameson, Berg, Cal lender, and Harrison are phe- nomenal at 16.
 Miss Jamieson, of Dallas, is the southern champion.
 The iron play of the red-haired and freckled little Miss Berg Is compared with that of the re- marlsable Alexa Stirling of years gone by. Miss Berg has the strong hands of the superlative player. Holder of tho Minneapolis and Twin Lakes titles, she turned in 76 to acquire the qualifying med- al in the Florida championship at Palm Beach. Miss Miley put her out at the 18th.
 The Misses Callender and Hnr- rison are daughters Of profession als.
 The freckled and bobbed- -haired Miss Callender has been banding clubs ever since she could walk. Under the tutelage Of her father, Eliot Callender, pro at the famous Monterey Peninsula Country Clab, she acquired the Del Monte chant pionship at IA. She has turned In 7O's n number of times, md pre- vailed in numerous tournaments. PIattsburg Miss Drives Green of 20O-YaPd Hole

This Is the most important single

We do today, q disproportionately
large vote In party affairs we not
only do not build up the Republican
party in those States. but. like the

cause" said Olmsted.
r. N, Ingelson. president Of the
Illinois Young Republicans, said the
Young @. o. p. movement would make
Q specific demand at the Springfield
convention for . revamping of the
party machinery.
"On the Republican National Com
mittee and In the Republican National
Convention, one-third Of the total
votes are cast by the so-called solid
South States" he declared.
This set-up permits a handful Of
men who control the votes OF their
own State and who have money
enough to deliver the Southern vote
when they need 1t, to maintain con-
troll of the Republican party when,
in fact, they do not represent the

Henry A. Bubb of Kansas, director
of the Midwest region Of the Young
Republican National Committee, de-
clared the Springfield convention Is
not the place to decide the issue, but
added:
There is a feeling among Young
Republicans in Kansas that perhaps
the Southern States have too much
voting strength in conventions In
comparison with their number of Re-
publican voters"
At Lincoln, Nebr., Harry Spencer, a
vice president and member of the

that the South's vote should be cut

DOOMED K|DNAPER
MCGEE Is Given Execution
Stay Until May 81 by
Gov. Park.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, May D.
Gov. Guy B. Park today granted wal
ter MCGEE. kidnaper Of Miss Mary Me-
Elroy, scheduled to be hanged in
Kansas City Friday, a stay Of execu-
ton until May 81.
Earlier the Supreme Court. Division
No. 2, ruled against MCGEE In two
proceedings.
The court denied q motion for trans
fer OF McGee's case to the Supreme
Court en- banc and refused a request
for the appointment of special COM
missioner to take dispositions.
MCGEE Is the first kidnaper to re-
ceive the death penalty in the United
States.
Csmmutation Asked.
Pleas for communication Of McGee's
sentence have been made to Gov.
Park by Miss McEhoy, 20, who said
that in pleading for the kidnaper's
life she also was pleading for her
own peace Of mind; McGhee's sister,
Mrs. Alberta Brewer of Kansas City,
and his woman attorney, Miss Lille
Knight. The Governor has not indi-
Gated when he will make known his
decision.
Miss McElroy, daughter of H. F.
McElroy, city manager Of Kansas
City, was held prisoner 10 hours and
released unharmed upon payment of
$4,000 ransom.

McElroys efforts in his behalf as his
only hope" of escaping the gallows.
BY unanimous decision the court
affirmed the death sentence March 80,
finding that the evidence sufficiently
sLbstantiates the verdict of guilty"
and that the record proper diseloses
no error" More recently the court
denied a motion for a rehearing.
Appeal Is Planned.
Miss Knight. who told Gov. Park
the sentence was unusually harsh"
and "due to passion and prejudice
against the defendant" has indicated
she will carry the case to the United
States Supreme Court.
Miss McElroy has been under medi-
cal care several times since the abb
duction, May 81, 1888, due to worry
over the death penalty meted out to
the leader of her abductors.
Her testimony clinched the States
case against MCGEE and other de-
PENDANTS. McGee's brother, George
McGee. is serving a life sentence, and
Clarence Click an eight-year sentence.

Tightening News Leaks.
The New Deal move to tighten up
on news leaks seems to be spreading.
Some free-talking officials have sud-
denly become evaSiye. A few have
frankly asked to be relieved Of the re-
sponsibility Of answering questions
hereafter. Not only ofhcials, but the
rank and file of personnel in some
Government quarters have shown a
sudden preference for silence.
These tightening-up furries haze
occurred on seueral previous oecd.
sions in this and in past admiRis-
trationS. They neper haue been
successful, and usually provoke
sharp, untavordble reaction.
This one appears to be more exten.
sive and earnest, but there Is no rea-
son to believe it will be any more sue
cessful than the others. Trying to
channelize the news of government Is
like trying to smooth the ocean waves.
A Liberal Conservative.
The family troubles OF Republicans
are fully explained by Q remark
dropped some time ago by House Re-
publican Leader Smell. Said he: Il

There is no question that the
somewhat conservative Mr.. Smell

Speaker Byrns lately has been try
ing q new kind of leadership quietly
in the House. It has worked very
we'll so far.
Instead Of using the strict historic
Garner method, he has tried friendly
consideration. He does not use his
gavel on the skulls of his flock, but
tries to shepherd them gently with
his crook.
