BRITISH OPEN

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland, July 0.
U.P)-Henry Cotton, smooth strok-
Ing English professional, today won
the British open golf championship
with an aggregate score of 200. He
had scores of 73 and II in the third
and fourth rounds played in heavy
rain.
This was Cotton's second victory
In the open. He won the 1884
tourney at Sandwich with an ag-
gregate of 283 He played fine
round under the afternoon down.
pour to pass the earlier leader, Reg
Whitcombe, youngest of the ia
nous Whitcombe golfing brothers
who aggregated 292 Whitcombe,
leader when the days play started,
had the title all but in his grasp
but scored a ID in the morning
round, and followed with a rs this
afternoon.
The bookmakers must have made
a killing. This was because of the
tremendous amount of money wag-
cred at varying odds that an Amer
lean would win. But none of the
strong Ryder cup players from over
seas, nor one of the other star pros
or amateurs including Bob Sweeney
of New York and London, who holds
the British amateur title, was able
to come through.

FIRING ALONG
LEAGUE FRONT

NEW YORK, July 0. (U.P)-Ffring
resumed in the regular major
league pennanU races TODAY after
three day recess for the playing OF
the fifth annual all star game.
Echoes of the affair, which the
American leaguers won handily for
their fourth triumph, still were be-
ing heard as the Chicago Cubs and
New York Yankees resumed bat
tling to protect their respective
league leads.
1t seemed likely that next years
selection of the all star teams per.
sonnel would go back to the fans,
who previous to this year, had par
ticipated in a nationwide election.
Latest suggestion was to let the fans
ballot on 16 members of each team,
and leave seven selections to the all
star managers in order to plug up
any weaknesses overlooked by the
voters.

No Reasons Given Why Mattern Withdrawn
 Soviet Search
(By The Associated press)


 FAIRBANKS, Aug. 25-Jimmy Mattern withdraws from search after deciding in a conference with Soviet representative Var tanian, that the former had done everything possible.
 Aviator Mattern said he is send ing the refuel crew back to the States tomorrow and will follow soon with my plane. Mattern said we were closer to an esti- mated position of the lost plane than anyone else; at times we flew blind hoping to hear Pilot LeVanefsky's radio. If he had been sending we would have heard him. There are no landing facilities for thousands of miles. y Soviet representative Vartanian thanked MT. Mattern for his ex- pert aid.

 At this writing, the Senate is slated to receive from it's Judic- iary Committee a program for court reform through constitu- tional amendment, which, its sponsors predict, will win the ap proval thus far denied the Logan substitute bill which kept the Senate in a dither last week, The death of Senator Robinson will deprive the Administration bill of one strong supporter. Many will believe that the fight he made on behalf of the measure, in the midst of midsummer heat, contributed to his death.

Harsh things were said about the Logan bill when trustful sen ators discovered they were being beguiled by the Administration sugar coated pill, which camou- flaged the same old bitter medl- cine underneath. Efforts to check a fihbuster by the opposition have had recourse to the Senate rule book, allowing a Senator to speak only twice in one day on a given subject, and making a Legislative day. just lone day. though it may run over a long list of calendar days. Thus, July 9th, day of the Logan bills intro- duction, may turn out to be one of the longest Legislative days in history. Meanwhile, the pro- visions of the new court reform by constitutional amendment, of- fered by Senators Burke and An drews, democrats, with hopes of rallying those opposed to revi- sion by legislation, call for one

HOUSE BUILDING
 MAY BE ASSISTED

Washington, Nov. l2-(UP) - President Roosevelt adding a new item to his program for the special session, said today he hoped Con- gress would speedily approve legis- iation to. aid private interests in Q big house building campaign throughout the nation.
 MT. Roosevelt said that, follow. inR his conference with important business leaders, the government is studying means of rejuvenating business through a housing pro- gram.
 The two chief phases of the stu dy are:
 1. How to get private capital in- terested in constructing one, two and four.family homes and big apartment projects.
 2. How to lower interest rates to aid tenants and. decreaese building costs to help home buyers.
 MT. Roosevelt said that the cur rent lag in housing construction had been caused by high real estate charges, high materials prices, high labor costs in some sections and the fact that private industry has done little to produce homes on a volume basis.
