Other Matches Close { Yanks Shoot for First
 Win on Foreign Soil
BY HARRY PERCY

United Press Staff CorrespOndent)
 Southport, Eng, June 30.-(UP) Americas professional golfers, hot on the trail of the first victory in Ryder cup history on foreign soil, stroked their way to a lead over England at the end of the morning round of the 36-hole singles match es in the international series.
 Playing in treacherous weather, with cold, heavy rain sweeping the course, the Americans were on top in four of today's eight matches, and held the British even in an- other one. The United States led 2 1-2 to 1 Ia at the start of the concluding days play as a result of their advantage in yesterdays Scotch foursomes.
 The standings at the end of 18 holes were:
 Ralph Guldahl, Chicago, was 6 up on Alfred Padgham, England.
 Denny Shute, Boston, and Sam King, England, were all square.
 David Rees, England, was 1 up on Byron Nelson, Reading, Pa.
 Henry Cotton, England, was 2 up on Tony Manero, Elmsford, N. Y.
 Percy Allis, England, was up on Gene Sarazen, Brookfeild Gen. ter, Conn.
 Sam Snead. White Sulphur Springs, w. Va, was up on Rich ard Burton, England.
 Ed Dudley, Philadelphia, was up on Alfred Perry, England.
 Henry Picard, Hershey, Pa, WAS 1 up on Arthur Lacey, England.
 The play of Guldahl, playing in England for the first time. featured the morning round. He slaShed through the driving gale to pile up 3 commanding lead over Padgham, reigning British open champion. The U. s. champion shot par 73 and went to lunch up. He looked like the only certain winner. with most of the other matches close.
 Guldahl and Henry Cotton, gen. orally hailed as England's most cole orful professional, were the only two players able to hold their nine- hole leads all the way to the fin- ish of the morning round. Cotton led Tony Manero, 1936 U. 8. open champion, 1 up at the turn and then increased his lead to 2 up.
 Two of the other three American leaders at lunch trailed at the end of holes, and the other one was level. Snead, after being all square at the turn, put on the pressure to go 2 up on Richard Burton. Ed Dudley wiped out Alfred Perrys l up lead, and finished with one. hole advantage. Henry Picard over- took Arthur Lacey on the second nine, and ended his morning round with a 1-up lead.
 While Cotton held his lead al- most throughout, the other two Eng fish leaders at the end of the morn ing round had to come from behind to get on top. David (DaD Rees. little Welshman, finished by win- ming three holes in succession to lead Byron Nelson, up. Gene Sarazen let a 1-up lead at 9 holes slip away from him ad Percy AlliS finished the morning round, up
 After trailing by one hole at the turn, Denny Shute sany a 30-foot putt on the 18th to square his match with Sam King, baby" of the British team, and go to lunch all even.

COMPLAIN ABOUT
SHOOTING HERE
HUNTERS ARE SHOWN TO BE
SHOOTING cARELEssLY
IN MANY SECTIONS

Considerable complaint is now
being made BY residents in vari-
Gus parts of the city, especially
on the outer edges of the island,
about hunters who are said to be
carrying on the practice of pronais-
cuous shooting of doves and other
birds, which action endangers
those living within these areas.
Complaints have been register
ed BY those who use the golf
course against the shooting in
that vicinity as well as those who
reside near the south shore and
other sections.
There is a city ordinance
against shooting within the city
limits. and those who have reason
to complain, express a hope that
the authorities viii have the pro-
visions of the ordinance enforced
in order that these dangerous
practices may be eliminated.

Dear Mayor Galley:
When our Pilgrim Fathers land

was to lxneel on the sand and
thank God for a safe voyage.
Their only purpose in coming was
to worship God according to the
dictates of their own conscience.
Our nation today Is ! recognized

God-fearing nation and we are
Justly proud ofgthis rscegnitipAl
Every nation in the histsry IF the
world that has forgotten God the
Creator has fallen and should the
time ever come when our great
Republic should forsake the prin-
cipleS of Christ on which our adj
vanced state of civilization has
been founded. then it too must
fall.
Whenever our independence
Day falls upon the Lords Day cur
great nation remembers the COM
mandment given Moses to keep It
holy and the celebration invariably
takes place on Monday. Such is
the attitude of our nation at large
with respect to the observance Of
our Lords Day. However, il
seems that in our small conlmun-
ity, we have started on path that
promises, If continued, to lead
us to the place where we win for
sake and disregard the sanetity Of
our Sabbath.
As an organization that Is Wit

spiritual welfare Of the eommun-
ity, we take this opportunity to
protest most vigorously the pro-
posed celebration which i schednl-
ed to take place on next Sunday.
