In June, 1885, the commissioners
petition AYERS, Dawson caused an or
der to be signed by judge H. A.
Grady, resident judge of the sixth dis
trict, authorizing employment of an
auditor to settle the accounts. In tn :
order no time limit was set for a Re
port, the petition recites.
When Dawson continued to fail to
file any report, the petition continues,
the commissioner, through his attor-
ney, j. A. Jones, secured an order
from Judge Marshall Spears requir-
ing Dawson to turn over all books, re-
cords, ETC., of the bank to the com
missioner. This order was never obey
ed by Dawson, it is contended. Judge
Sinclair says he never knew of this or
der and charges Jones with keeping
it out of the record.
In March, 1887, Dawson, without
notice to the commissioner, it is con
tended, presented an order to Judge
Sinclair making certain allowances
and approving certain fees. This was
signed. On April 5, 1887, the complaint
continues, Dawson procured at :

HANCOCK BID FOR
DRY VOTE VOICED
Was Only "Surprise" of
Opening Speech of Chal-
lenger Of Reynolds
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel


Raleigh, ApriI|1 4-Frank HancOck's
opening Senatorial song" of Tuesday
night contained only one surprise
notc-a somewhat suhdued, but none
me less resonant siren call for the dry
vote to rally to him against incumbent
Robert Il. Reynolds.
Twice in the ten by-innuendo at
taeks on Reynolds he slurred the Bun
combe mems stand on liquor. His
lead-off promise" took a pot shot
1T Our Bob for making a Senat"
speech in favor of liquor sales in the
District OF Columbia. His Fifth" was
directed at a Reynolds bill which, in
Fancock's words provided that ''li
quor may be given to dumb animals"
There wasn't mention of Reynolds
name in the entire speech, both Frank
and Our Bob" having adopted the
opera bouffe, rlusical-comedy stuff Of
refusing to recognize the others ext
;stence.
But there is no doubt in the mind
of any listener or commentator that
the ten Hancock promises were ten
definite attempts to dress Reynolds in
the "accoutrcraents of q clown" and
the ldCL tLtt TWO VI CiiCl-l L CAClI GU -
the we'll known Reynolds wctness-
even though the references were obi:
questioned that Hancock hopes K
gather into his fold the votes of the
states drys.
Elsewhere in the radio talk which
opened the Hancock campaign Their
wasn't a thing he hadn't teen expecte'
to say His whole campaign strategy
obviously, is to picture Reynolds t.
the voters as dilletant at govern
ment, a chap who hasn't a serious
thought in the world, a fellow who
spends his time gadding about the
world as carcfree as a butterfly and
Just as unconcerned with the dutic-
of his office.
For his own part, Hancock made nc
pledge about what he will or will not
do if elected to the Senate, beyond
repeatedly Boosting that he has wo
every campaign in which he has run
and reiterating an intention to bs
serious about the business of repre-
senting the State.
Just one more noticeable fact Wa;
that he did not name Bailey among
the illustrious senators.

EASTER.
Unlimited joy should abound in. ttt.

considered .theRone occasion for a

rabbits. The danger is becoming ap.
parent that soon the RABBIT will sup

the same as Santa Claus has taken
attention away from Christmas.
How hollow Easter would be with
out the central thought of Christ's
Resurrection. He has become the first

He is risen from the dead, so also
some day you shall rise-and may il
be to your everlasting joy. It can De

Missed Free Throws Cost LeavenwOrth 33-32 Tilt

Inability to make good either of two free throws, made Janusis, Leavenworth basketball player, the "goat" rather than the hero of one of the widest games of the local hoop season, witnessed by record third athletic carnival throng of l. 800 last night at Wilby gym, where Watertown walked out with a single point 33-32 decision, to break even with the team that had already beaten the Indians on their home court. Oddly enough, Leavenworth outscored Watertown from the floor by four points, yet II points gained from the penalty stripe brought home the bacon after young JanuSiS missed two free losses following a scramble under the Tech basket in the final period.
 Nip and Tuck
 Both teams started fast, scored 2 points apiece in the first eight nin- utes, but Watertown went into a IT, 13 lead at half time which it in- creased to 26-18, after which it be- came 32-22 but the Tech Tigers fought hard and came up to 8 baS- ket away from an overtime game. Excellent free throwing, Il of 17 by Watertown won the game for them, as the contest turned out, while Leavenworth got but of 12 foul tries. Wrenko with IA points and Marens with II, led the scoring, Jack Bannon getting 8 for Leaven- worth.

By H. J. ARONSTAM
United Press Staff Correspondent

\OHAtCu 1ECSS StdA SVAACSPVAAuCAV
 Coral Gables, Fla, Feb. 25. (UP) Ralph Guldahl, the husky, slope shouldered national open champion, who has seen enough golf winners to recognize the symptoms, blew a high note today for little Patty Berg, the Harry Cooper" of the feminine links brigade.
 "She has knocked at the door Of the national title three times" the tall Texan drawled, "and I think this is going to be Patty's year. She is the most consistent woman golfer in the country today and the greatest girl golfer from tee to green I have ever Seen."
 Ralph has seen them all except Glenna Collett Ware, the former national champion who no longer is serious about her game. He par ticularly was impressed by the 2O- year-old Minneapolis girls iron play which he thought lis as good as that of many of the touring pros. She has groove swing and smacks 'em like man."
 The national open titlist first saw Patty play when he teamed with her in an exhibition at St. Paul two years ago. And after watching her during the current winter circuit campaign, he was convinced she would be unstoppable in the top women's tournament at Wilmette, H., in September.
 Patty, who made her first bid for the national title while still a girl in short skirts, at present is barn. storming through Florida. But she is not playing every tournament that comes along, as ill former years. She is afraid of becoming over-golfed, which she thinks may have caused her downfall in the national before.
 The short, stocky, red-haired lass is picking her spots, but it's the easy tournaments she is passing up. Playing strong fields that will be virtually the same for the na- tional, she has left a trail of vic tories. She started by taking the Augusta titleholderS, added the Charlotte Harbor prize and then won the Miami -Biltmore tourna- ment for the third straight year.
 Patty, who is superstitious, won't say she expects to win the top worn- ems title this year, but admits she is working hard. She has been con- centrating on her putting, the only weakness in her armament.
 In her first effort in the national, in Interlachen in 1885, she lost to Mrs. Ware 3 and in the final. She was dropped from the championship list in the semi-final her next time out. Patty went to the final last year and was beaten ' and 6 by Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page who shot sensational golf over rain and windswept course at Memphis.
 The freckle-faced girl has been playing the game less than six years. And the last two years have been a strange parallel to those of Harry Cooper. She has won or gained the final in every tourna- ment she has entered. But like Cooper, last years leading money winner among the pros, the national title eluded her.
 Gulhadl insists this is her year to quit playing bridesmaid" to the national champion and take the role herself.
