OF all the marathoners of the
links, Bruce Sutherland of Edin-
burgh, Scotland, holds the top rec
ord. In 1927 he played 252 holes,
starting June Fl at Sis p. m. and
finishing the following day at 1880
p. m. Caddies carried torches to
light the way during the night. He
walked more than 40 miles and fin
ished in rainstOrm.
Over in Australia a unique record
was made by w. F. R. Boyce, club
champion of the Brisbane Golf club,
Queensland. He played 108 holes
one day over eight different courses
covering 55-mile radius.
Returning to America, the record
hunters found several more stand
outs. For instance Dan Kenney of
Tyler, Texas, and Bill Lundberg of
Houston completed ZIG holes from
4:30 a. m. to p. m. back in 1923.
Kenney took 957 strokes, or IA per
hole and Lundberg took 1908, or Al
per hole. In 1916 Charles Daniels
played 228 holes at Sabatths' Park.
He accomplished this in Is hours,
had an average score of 81 per IS
hole round and covered IS miles
from A a. m. to 1880 p. m.
So, Mr.. Ferebee, it seems, is one
of a long line of golf marathoners.
Few on the list, however, have given
a better performance than he did.
Moreover, his feat has been profita-
BILE even since he won his partners
half interest in the farm, for he has
received a number of offers to en-
dorse various commodities for a
price and has accepted some of the
more attractive ones.

PART FABRIC, PART
KNIT NEW FORMULA
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

College girl, here's your cue to
smartness in dress this fall. Which
is to the effect that the sweater and
the cloth skirt in accurate color
match is a fashion "must" this COM
ing season. So there's lots of fun
ahead matching a sweater knit of
shetland, cashmere or angora wool
to the skirt of patterned tweed, or if
you prefer, monotone wool of plain
or novelty weave. Your choice runs
from rich dark autumn tones to the
now-so-fashionable pastel colors.
Then there are those amazing
three-piece ensembles that employ
the identical yarn employed in knit
ting the sweater, as is used for
weaving the cloth for jacket and
skirt. There's no-end chic in the
costumes of cloth that have short
fur jackets with sleeves and bor-
behring's, knit of yarn in colors that
tune to the scheme of things.

intolerance of certain proteins.
Even when the offending foods are
fruits and vegetables, it is the pro-
TEN that is responsible. It has
been suggested that the sensitiza-
ton results because at some pre-
vious time, an unsplit or undi-
gested protein in some way passed
through the membranes lining the
digestive tract and entered the
blood stream. This acted very
much like foreign substance and
sensitized body cells in some way
so that whenever the same food is
eaten, the disturbing symptoms
occur as sort of defense mechan-
ism.

TALL tales of endurance on golf
L courses have been going the
rounds since ]. Smith Ferebee,
young Chicago broker, negotiated
144 holes at Olympia Fields in
single day with a score of 81 and
thereby won his business partners
half of a $50, 900 Virginia plantation
as well as numerous cash bets.
Ferebee became a seven-day
wonder and an epidemic of golf
marathons broke out reminiscent of
the pole-sitting fever of decade
ago. No one should be brash enough
to disparage Ferebee's remarkable
feat. He accomplished it under hand
leaps enough to stop an ordinary
player. But when old-timers began
digging through the records here
and abroad they came on some in
teresting instances of golf en-
durance that not only equaled Fer
ebee's but gave other aspiring
marathoners an even tougher mark
to shoot at.
For instance, there was the rec
ord of SlasOn Thompson, Chicago
newspaper man who played eight
rounds one day back in 1906 at On
wentsia, clicking off 144 holes with
out losing his breath. And ThOmp-
son was IS years old at the time.
Then there was Eddie Wild, who
went 162 holes back in 1921 at the
Seaview course at Atlantic City,
winning 81 900 bet that he could do
the job carrying his own clubs and
break so every round.
When the record hunters Travelled
across the ocean, they found even
more startling examples of golf
stunts. Back in Aberdeen, Scotland,
a golfer named w. G. Bloxom wa
gered he could play IL rounds over
the Aberdeen course and then walk
ten miles afterWardS-all within "a
hours. His bet was accepted and
one morning in 1875 he started out
at a. M, finished between 8 and
9 p. m. and then walked his ten
miles. The Aberdeen course was Is
holes, so Bloxom played $50 holes.
More recently, in 1910 to be ex-
act, another AberdOnian, III. B.
Lumsden, started at 2:20 a. m. and
completed IL rounds before 8 p. m.
He is said to have holed out every
putt, played ZIG holes and averaged
, 8212 strokes per round.
Some of the British marathons
have taken bizarre turn. Accou-
tired in suit of heavy armor, gen.

of tendency to allergy may pre-
vent discomfort and trouble.
There are two ways to discover
the trouble makers. One is to
learn by experience, either by
keeping a record of the foods eat
en- and noting the appearance of
symptoms, or by eliminating from
the diet, first one and then another
of the foods that are suspected of
causing difficulty. The other is to
let your doctor conduct simple
skin tests. Small scratches are
made on the arms and legs, and
each scratch touched with a solu-
ton made of the protein of food
or substance known to cause trou-
BILE. If a person is allergic to that
substance, the skin around the
scratch swells and becomes in
famed. The Inflammation disap-
pears after few hours and causes
no pain or inconvenience.

Trouble-Mukinq Foods

1t is difficult to generalize re-
garding the foods that cause trou-
BILE, because they vary so widely
among individuals who are sensi-
tized, and often one person is sen.
sitiZed to a number of foods. 1t has
been found that the foods most fire.
quently causing allergic symp-
toms include wheat, milk, eggs,
chocolate. pork, fish and shellfish,
tomatoes, cauliflower, cabbage,
strawberries and oranges.
Skin rashes are believed to be
caused most frequently by hyper
sensitiveness to milk, cereal or
pork. Hives are reported to occur
often from eating strawberries,
chocolate, fish and tomatoes.
Wheat is frequently an offender in
migraine headaches. Asthma
seems to be common in persons
who are sensitive to milk, eggs
and butter.

ing years. The Tigers finished Sec
ond in 1886 and 1887. Charley
Grimm's six-year record with the
Cubs included two pennants, second
place twice and third place twice.
All of which might indicate that the
luckiest manager is the one who
never quite reaches the top.
Gabby Street, now manager of the
st. Louis Browns, could probably
speak with feeling on the subject.
He won pennants for the st. Louis
Cardinals in 1880 and 1881 and then
slipped down to a tie for sixth in
1892. His exit was dramatic.
Probably the lone exception
among pennant-winning managers
who are able to hold their jobs when
the team skids is Connie Mack. In
the past 20 years the Philadelphia
Athletics under his tutelage have fin
ished first three times and last six
times. They've been in seventh
place twice, in sixth once, in fifth
and third twice each and in second
four times. One of the reasons Con-
ME has hung on is that he is a
substantial stakeholder in the club.
Mickey Cochrane's trouble at De-
troit was that success probably
came too suddenly. He startled the
baseball world by winning pennant
in 1884, his first year as manager
and then repeated in 1885, taking
the worlds championship to boot.
The Tigers hadn't had a pennant
since 1909, but with record like
Mickey's, not continuing to win pen
nants might be construed as failure.

Cerise Added to Popular
Pinks by Paris Stvlist

Cerise is new step on the ladder
of pinks. A pleasant variation of
the more purplish fuchsia shade,
the cerise is used by Lelong for a
flowing sash tying around a deep
blue evening gown with a halter
neck.
And the same vivid shade is the
background for dainty white-dotted
Swiss, which forms the bodice for a
bouffant white tulle skirt. The bod
ice is draped up and over the right
shoulder but comes under the left
arm, thus leaving the left shoulder
strapless, while the right is well
covered.

cheted model shown above to the
right in the illustration, for of course
you will be wanting to have it ready
to wear with the new fall suit. The
other two sweaters in the picture
are knitted.
We agree with you, this trio of
handmade sweaters certainly have
chic and charm about them that
is far beyond the ordinary. Not
that there is anything complicated
about the knitting and crocheting
of 'em, for each of the models is
really very simple to make.

The band-and-bow trim that gives
such dainty feminine detail to the

in the group is definitely new. It
affords grand opportunity to carry
out a two-color scheme which is
something to take note of, consid-
ering that bicolor treatments are
highly important in the current
stylizing program. The three bands
of contrasting color are fastened
with bows made of tufts of fringe

Price of Success

Y ASEBALL success is its own
- worst hazard, particularly big
league managers. Once manager
wins pennant for his team he must
make habit of winning or expect
to be subjected to kick down and
out. At least that is what the expe-
rience of two of the major leagues
most successful managers-Charley
Grimm and Mickey COchrane-
might suggest.
Mickey Cochrane was ousted as
manager of the Detroit Tigers, fol-
lowing closely on the dismissal of
Charley Grimm by the Cubs. Coch-
rane hadn't won a pennant for De-
troit for two years, but he had won
pennants in each of the two preced-

seem that there should be a way

The center medallion of the rug
shown here is its outstanding fea-
ture. The braiding is fine and
tight. The braided strips should
be sewn together with strong linen
thread or about size cotton
thread used double. The center
round should be 8-inches long as
shown. Sew around and around
until the center oval is 14-inches
long, then make the eight loops
shown in the next round-three
along each side of the oval and
one at each end.
These loops should be 2-inches
long. In working around the loops
with the next rows, the trick is
to lease" the inside edge of the

keep the work perfectly fiat, and
to give the scalloped effect shown.
AS you work around, the scallops
gradually straighten out and the
rug becomes more oval in shape.
