Gov. Harold G. Hoffman, who tenn
porarily saved Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann from the electric chair a month
ago, cast doubt today on the testimony
that placed Hauptmann near Hope
well about the time Of the Lindbergh
kidnapping, March /, 1882.
At the conclusion of two hours of
questioning, Millard Whited, Sour
lands lumberjack. the Governor said
it was highly significant" that Whited
once told police he had seen no one
near the Lindbergh home, and then
apparently reversed himself when
Hauptmann was arrested, two and
a half years later. and identified him.
The Governor said Whited told him
he had been promised a part of the
$4,000 reward offered by the State
for the arrest and conviction of the
kidnaper. had received about $160 for
appearing as a witness, and thought
more was due him.

Governor said, ito know whether the
promise of the reward played some
part in his identification Of Haupt-

Mario Santana and Young Fer

main event on a fight card to be
staged May IA under the joint
sponsorship Of the re creation sec
ton of The local WPA unit and
Key West post of the American

Santana returned only yester-
day by boat from Tampa and ar
engagements were begun immedi-
ately to close the match which is
slated to be exceptionally lively
since Young Fernandez now holds
decision over the head of the
returning fighter.
Santana, however. while in
Tampa chalked up four knock
out victories and two by decision
out of seven tries, and feels now
that his chances of wiping out the
stigma of the decision in Fernan-
dez' favor have been enhanced.
The complete card, to be stag
ed at the Navy Ball Field arena,

A suggestion has Eeen offered
the writer in connection with form
ing a night diamondball league.
Clubs can 6e picked SO as to
share the players as even as pos
sible. Then have some one spon-
sor each club; say some brewing
company or other outside con-
Germs, which have representatives
here. A schedule would then be
adopted and play started. This
is one suggestion. The author of
this column hopes to hear from
other fans. Another fan suggest
ed that Mr.. Brantley. Mr.. Art
man and Ben Sawyer. get together
and each select club and resume
play. This fan says these sport
enthusiasts are fair and square
and the few cents it would cost
to have night games twice a week,
if not made at the gate, they would
not miss from their pockets. Now
what do you other sports say?

DOings Around The
Golf Links
(By GRAVY)

To prove that you can't keep
a good man down, Willie Kemp
undertook to play with and against
four other guys. In one match
Mr.. Doc Willie Percival was
teamed up with Charlie Salas
against Eddie Strunk and Johnny
Kirschenbaum. In that match
Willie and pal finished siX-up. In
another arrangement with Kirsch
as pal and Hurricane Eddie with
Melvin Russell against them, Will
lie was on the topside of eight-up.
Now all of this caused great mer-
riment to Willie and great chag
rim to Hurricane Eddie but the
secret was all on account of Will
lie getting 42-41 while Brother
Strunk could do no better than
1911. But Charlie Salas had the
laugh on the whole gang because
he had four skins while Willie
and Kirsch each had two and Ed
die had just one. Melvin was the
orphan without any, but Melvin
claims that was on account of the
worry about not beating the fire
to the bridge the other day.
