July l3.-Denny shute. seeking his
third straight national P. q. A. cham
pionship. and Jimmy Hines. two-time
metropolitan open golf champion.
from Great Neck, N. Y, today finished
all even for the morning half Of their
36-hole third-round match at the
Shawnee Country Club.
shute, with an eagle 3 on the ass
yard third, where he holed out from
the rough 80 yards away, hewed pretty
close to the line, whereas Hines had
to scramble. Both, however, were one
under par with Ills. Hines, one down
playing No. II, squared the match
there by dropping his 4-foot putt for
a birdie I after Shute's drive was
trapped.
Byron Nelson, Reading, Pa, fired q
sensational "a, eight under par. to be-
come IL up over Harry Bassler of
Long Beach, Calf. Althoughthe 1887
medalists showing was two under Ed
Dudley's 1885 course record, 1t wasn't
accepted as new mark since Byron
did not hole out all his puts.
Nelson won eight of the first nine
holes and halved the other as he went
out In 80, then clipped four more
strokes OIL par with an incoming 81
that included brides on the 10th, 11th,
10Th and 10th. Not one of Byrons
birdie puts was more than 6 feet.
In the battle OF the dark horses,
Jim FOULS of Chicago, with a par u,
was two up on Marvin Stahl, the 28-
year-old from Lansing, Mich, who
has made his living from golf for the
last l6 years.

two holes with birdie and q par to
end his morning Is four up on Felix
Seraf1n, stout, unstylish hitter from
Clarks Summit. Pa. who yesterday
whipped Harry Cooper and KY
LafIoon. snead went around In 81,
five under par.
Horton Smith, putting star from
Chicago, shot a SO at Billy Burke of
Cleveland that left the 1881 national
open champion three down at the half
way mark of the first match in the
lower half Of the draw.
Paul Runyan. the White Plains

title at Buffalo, N. Y, went to lunch
with Cup lead over Ray Man.

first time, Runyan turned a trick un-
usual for a man who Is so short of
the tee by birdieing both par IS COM
ing home, the tenth and seventeenth.
Squire Gene Sarazen, only survivor
besides Shute, who has won the title
more than once, played extremely
erratic, If not downright poor golf, and
yet finished his morning round up on
young Jimmy Demaret Of Houston.
Tex. Genes rs was four over par,
but a shot better than Demaret.
Henry Picard, winner of the last
Augusta masters tourney, and Dick
Metz, United States open runner -up,
who put out Open Champion Ralph
Guldahl in an 18-hole thriller yester-
day, finished their 18 all even.
Two up going into the last three
holes. Metz three-putted the short
sixteenth. missing from 31a feet, and
lost the seventeenth as Picard, on the
edge In two. Clipped stiff.
Both had 70s. Runyan, like Smith,
went around in SO.

Adams, who is seeking reelection to
the Senate from Colorado. This in
cident was dramatic in q way. The
speech itself was of no particular sig
niflcance. It was more or less q
carbon copy Of all the other rear-end
talks about how happy the President
is to be in that particular section Of
the country, and what q particularly
fine section it is, and so forth. 1t
was dramatic because Senator Adams,
who voted against the Presidents
court plan, and who on other occa-
sions has failed to be obedient to
White House commands, was standing
close by the President on the rear
platform during this brief speech. It
was further dramatic because 1t was
known that Senator Adams has been
on the so-called White House black
list, and 1t had been hinted that he
was marked for punishment.
The diminutive Colorado Senator,
like virtually every one else in the
Presidents party. had no idea just
what the President was going to say
about him. The Senator did not ex-
actly quake in his boots but it was
plainly evident that he was uneasy as
he shifted from one foot to the other
and tried to look brave during the
ordeal.
The President in his speech men
toned the Governor Of the State, who,
too, was on the platform, but he ig-
nored the Senator.
Ignores 1910 Endorsement, Too.
1t was interesting, too, to see how
the President also ignored q large
banner not far distant from the end
Of the car which read THE Colorado
Fuel and Iron Employees Want Roose-
welt for l940."
Senator Adams seemed greatly re-
lieved that the President concluded
his speech without saying something
that might have been harmful to his
campaign. He said to this writer later
that he was perfectly content to be
ignored under the circumstances. He
added that in this respect he was un-
like one Of his colleagues who is cred
tied with saying Say anything you
want to about me in the papers-good
or bad-but please don't ignore me-"
The general belief now Is that the
real reason why the President did not
take Senator Adams to the cleaners
in his speech was the fact that he
has learned since he has started on
this unusual campaign trip that Sen
ator Adams reelection is assured and
that he would not do his own cause
any good by publicly abusing him.

MNUTT RAISES
DEMOCRATS HOPE
Indiana Convention Begins
Drive to Place Him in
White House.
Sy the Associated Press,

oS l1S ASSOCIABcQ SIeSS.
INDIANAPOLIS, July 13.-Indiana
Democrats, having patched up fac
tional Quarrels and renominated Sen
ator Frederick Van Nuys, New Deal
recalcitrant, looked ahead today to
1910 and their White House hopes
for former Gov. Paul v. McNutt, now
high commissioner to the Philippines.
''McNutt for President" was the
dominant note in yesterdays Demo-
cratic State convention, which unani-
mously chose Van Nuys its senatorial
nominee. And the McNutt move
ment, needing party harmony. had a
dominant part, politicians were agreed,
in paving the way for denomination
Of the States senior Senator.
Demonstration for McNutt.
The convention matched the heat
wave in which it sweltered with q
glowing demonstration for the absent
Mr.. McNutt. As national committee
man Frank McHale, potential man
ager Of the McNutt campaign, read a
platform plank Offering the former
Hoosier Governor to the Nation in
1910, the convention broke into .
bedlam.
The platform, adopted without dis
sent, also singled out Senator Sher-
man Minton, who was chairman Of the
convention, for praise. But it did not
mention Senator Van Nuys, who
fought President Roosevelt's court and
Government reorganization bills.
A wild outburst Of cheering greet
ed the denomination Of Senator Van
Nuys, which came by reclamation and
without a murmur Of opposition, but 1t
did not match the McNutt demonstra-
ton.
The convention brought a hand
shake and smiles between Senator
Van Nuys and Gov. M. Clifford Town
send, political foes OF long standing.
It was their first meeting in months.
Break Came in Speech.
Last summer Gov. Townsend told
the Indiana Democratic Editorial As
sociation, with Senator Van Nuys in
his audience, that the States Demo-
Gratis would not support for re-elec-
ton those public servants who have
not been loyal to the President" Sub
sequently Senator Van Nuys an
nounced he would ask reelection as
an independent, but last week he
yielded to an "olive branch" invita-
ton from Gov. Townsend to become
candidate before wide open" con-
vention.
Senator Van Nuys, 64-year-old law
yer, has been active in Indiana Demo-
cratic politics for 40 years. His Re-
publican opponent in the November
election will be Raymond E. Willis, 81,
Angola editor, who won his party's
nomination over former Senator Jim"
Watson and three other candidates
two weeks ago.

Elimination Process On.
Probably more than q half hundred
names Of aspirants have been offered
for consideration since Mr.. Aliens res
ignation was accepted more than q
month ago. The President has been
far too busy In the meantime to give
any attention to the problem. He has
merely passed on these names and
their accompanying recommendation
and Endorsements to his patronage
lieutenants to give them the once-over
and to put the list through the process
Of elimination.
Although the genial Commissioner
Is not one of the Presidents patronage
lieutenants, it is known that the Presi-
dent has q warm regard for him per-
sonally and high appreciation of his
judgment. Therefore 1t Is only
natural that he would seek the opinion
Of Commissioner Allen As to available
material for this important local post.
Mr.. Allen is highly popular with
the White House group. from the
President on down. Every one in the
party was glad to see his beaming
face as he swung aboard the train
when it pulled up at Pueblo yesterday
for the Presidents first address in
Colorado. With Keith Morgan Of New

bring to the President on his train
about the complete success Of the last
birthday balls and as to the manner
IN which the money derived from the
balls is being used in the drive against
infantile paralysis.
