"Dimmy" was handicapped by dam
aged hand.
John Wiatrak, University of Wash

in time to help the Huskies trim
Southern California, makes most Of his
teams decisions as to substitutes, so
great is the confidence placed in his
judgment by Head Coach Jimmy
Phelan Wiatrak and California S
Bob Herwig are hot rivals for all-coast
honors, besides being in the all

the tournament. Such fellows as Leo

everything they had today to get in

1873 was the second highest perform
ance of the season. His 165 recent

And the only reason he isn't lead

fact that Bill Miller, the leader for

First Hole Pulls Leo Down.

HAD Walper started with the
orthodox 4 on the first hole, he
also would be in there at II. That
flrst hole was the only bad one Leo
had, however. crashing his tee shots
for their usual tremenauus distance,
and putting very well Leo literally
ate up the famed No. 2 course. For
the first hole he was over par.
For the last II he was l under.
That's the tip on how the Walper
man played in his first round of the
Winter golf tour. He is here with
his wife and their newly bought
trailer in which they will make the
California-Florida circuit of the
Winter tournaments
Leo bagged three brides in his pa
rade from the first to the eighteenth
hole and only twice went over par.
So you can see that he was plenty good
on the course where such gents as
Sarazen, Armour. Diegel, Hagen and
lot OF others were staggering around
In figures much higher than he re-
turned. Leo is in. Only a round
around IS can keep him out, and he
isn't shooting 85s the way his swing
is geared here at Pinehurst. The guy
is darned good golfer, by any count.

MIR. LANDON GOES FISHING

Mir Landon has gone fishing The Republican nominee has sought out the quetude of the streams of Colorado there to commune with nature perhaps catch fish two, and, doubtless, though not for publication, to try and figure out how he is going to explain the platform his party thrust upon him at Cleveland.
 It is a habit of our prominent to go fishing MT Landon, being from Kansas where it gets so dry the fish have to carry canteens, no doubt will enjoy little fishing than most. He may enjoy it even than his Republican predecessor, MT Hoover before that the dolefully silent MT Coolidge MT Hoover used to like his fishing on the Rogue River in Southern Oregon. In the silent recesses that are Southern Oregon he could dodge behind the trees when the reporters showed up to ask about the state of the union. It reported at one time that MT Hoover hurled one newspaper cameraman's equip ment into the roaring Rogue when the latter worthy suggested statement how many banks might crash that day. Those great days for fishing for MT Hoover
 MT. Coolidge was wont to seek out the solitude of the Black Hills, there to test skill with the wary trout, and now MT Landon has trekked to Colorado to his line It is significant fact that all the Republican leaders seek out the inland waters None has been addicted to salt water fishing They go back among the voters It may be good psychology but it is interesting to note that MT. Roosevelt does his fishing off shore and there daily interviews about how the fish biting. However always when he returns he receives handsome welcome.
 But let us return to MT. Landon. After all it is he who is fishing now It is the Kansan who seems to pattern much after MT. Coolidge He is almost as non-committal Even the staid Republican New York Journal of Commerce which usually has only nice things to say of MT Landon forced to com ment that even the closest supporters of Governor Landon must admit that one of his strongest assets has been the fact that he is not record way another most current issues"
 This is the negative attitude the Republican standard bearer has taken to the of Colorado Whether after many weary hours pouring over the G. O. P platform his attitude will change is yet to be The nation will watch with interest to see if the Cleveland convention produced an actual can didate or just negative fisherman

Truth About China
(San Francisco Chronicle)

(San Francisco Chronicle)
 On what is happening in China the best the news service correspondents do is to send variety of guesses by variety of persons in variety of cities Of only one thing be This is that nothing will turn out to be what it seems It is always in Oriental affairs What appears on the surface is indication of what is going on underneath
 If may add more guess to those coming the cables it is that whatever is going on and wherever it is going Japan is likely to be at the bottom of it. at the bottom of this assumed Anti-Japanese Salvation Army
 To this may also be added something that is more than a guess. When whatever is doing is all over, Japan will be found to have gorged more of China and to have fastened her teeth firmly on the rest.

LITTLE AMERICANS

As one peruses again the republican platform adopted at Cleveland the lack of vision the part of those who wrote it is and more revealed True, it did show signs of keeping abreast of rapidly changing condition in country by leaning in part toward, if not openly accepting New Deal policies.

 This is time that should be prof itable for lawyers, scholars and men of commanding intelligence. Orators will be in extraordinary demand in advocating national issues.
 Women will organize widely in peace movements and will distribute propaganda that will have temper ary interest, but warming is given that there will be a recurrence of the usual war excitement.
 This month, marked by an eclipse of the moon on the fourth, brings Mars into great power, the seers announce. Farming and stock -rais- ing may be adversely affected.
 Building continues under rule of the stars that assures profit for carpenters and contractors as well as architects. Improvements in light ing systems will be noteworthy.
 Rooms in the stock market may be looked for all through the sum mer which is to be a time of ex- traordinary fluctuations due to the aspects of Mars.
