Fair Notes

Less than a week until the opening night of Nome's sixth Annual Fair. Only five more days to be exact to get your entries prepared, your season ticket bought, and yourself ready to enjoy our fall festival to the fullest
 All departmental superintend- ents are requested to meet with the Board of Directors at the Fair Building at one o'clock Sat urday afternoon. At this meet ing, booth space will be appor- toned for the departments, So it is very important that all super intendents be present.
 At the Fair Building, work is in full swing. The booths are all up and MT. Brunette will start on the decorating today.
 Yesterday we decided to run down the rumor we had heard that the mining booth was going to display Sl000 in gold dust. When questioned MT. Shallit, who is superintendent, smiled guilelessly and replied "Oh, yes. I'll make it myself if somebody doesn't come around and donate it." Well that's one more impulse to larceny nipped in the bud.
 And speaking of the mining de parment, are any of your boys planning to win the $25 prize for model dredge, drag-line, or other mining unit.
 Let us remind you that all movie films to be entered in the Fair contests must be handed in to Mrs. Cameron before Monday evening. So far we are lacking film to fill the two hour progam we had planned so those of you who have hesitated about enter ing your pictures, get busy over the weekend and get them in shape
 The 3mm. contest is to be held night and the l6 mm Friday night. Both black and white, and color films may be and a maximum size of 200 feet is the only restriction.
 Three competent and unbiased judges have been selected to judge the pictures on compost ton, lighting, subject matter, con tinuity and originality
 The silence Entertainment Chairman Howard Lyng IS main taining leads us to wonder what features he is plan hing for the grand program Sat urday night. Perhaps by Monday issue we will have coerced some details from him.

 Race

Paris, July 10-(UP) Eighty athletes of five nations, excluding Germany and Italy, started the worlds hardest bicycle race today, the 2,600 mile, three- week tour De France around France. Germany and Italy boycotted the race this year.
 The bicyclists left the Paris su- burb of Le Vesinet at 10 a. m. for 130-n1ile ride to Caen, the first of 18 states. Tomorrow they will con- tinue III miles to Rennes.

 It was the only stand-up sit-down strike in history.
 Human life was at a premium as the sit-downers charged from room to room. from conference to confer- ence. Confusion was 50 rampant that Walter Hagen, the loose leaf page from Esquire Magazine, made two public appearances without tie on, and with his cuff links unsnapped.

 Excitement reached such a crest in mid-afternoon that Byron Nelson, National Open champion, changed expression; Ralph Guldahl quick ened his pace from a shuttle to a slow glide, and Horton Smith was caught buying (and paying for) Q soft drink.

Today's Sport Parade
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent

1 was amiss, and went in and out oi doors like second story worker witt a skeleton key.
 The cause of 1t all-Denny Shute-- was @ one-man shuttle from tht room where the players were strik. ing, and the room where the execu- tive committee sat in perspiring, fl not solemn, session. It was not until mid-afternoon, hours after the tour nament was scheduled to begin, that 1 the committee gave in and said Shute could play, even though he was two days late with the payment oi his dues.
 While the controversy between the committee and the players ragged up- stairs, the members of the Pomonok club the spectators who had paid good money to see the stars in action ragged downstairs and out of doors. Men searched through their pockets for brass gnucks, and their women readied French heels. Some wanted to lay on the executive committee and othes craved whack at the strikers. Enterprising young men be- gan hammering together sandwich boards for picketing, while cooler heads put rthough calls for John L. Lewis, William Geen, and Madame Secetary Perkins. One young radical fiopped himself down in a sand trap and said he would not move until played out with niblick, and an- other tore through the high rough bordering the first fairway crying, T am unfair to disorganized back swings
 The strike ended much, much more quickly than 1t started. Over come by the heat or their own argu- ments the executive committee sud- denly opened the door of the con- ference room, staggered out celluloid collars a-wilt, and said Shute could play, despite his heinous crime of be- ing two days late with his dues
 By this time a hell of a bridge game was in progress in the strikers room and the sit-downers, really sit- ting now, hated to leave. But Walter Hagen, desperate for a lemonade, led his fellow revolters (not to be confused with Johnny Revolta, who was one of the few big name golfers not to participate in the strike) out of the room.

United Press stan Correspondent

United Press Stan Correspondent New York, July l0-(UP)-The pick of the nations professionals winners of the first major sit-down strike in the history of American golf, march out on the sun-baked fairways of the Pomonok Country club today on the last qualifying round of the 22nd P. c. A. tourna- ment.
 And when the sun sinks behind the nearby Worlds Fair tonight, 43 of them get one-way tickets for home while the 63 low scorers for the 36 holes of medal play and de- tending champion Paul Runyafl, move into hand -to-hand match play tomorrow to decide which two shall play for the championship on Sat- urday.
 For a time yesterday, as the tour r1ament was getting under way, 1t looked as If 50 players, including all the great American names in the game. were going to walk out.
 But the players put on a sit-down strick and won.
 The trouble centered around Dem ny Shute of Huntington, w. Va, l938 and 1887 champion. Shute was two days late paying his P. O. A. dues of $25, which were due on May 20th, and the executive committee ruled that he could not play.
 Shute, who fired 0 73 after all the rumpus, was deadlocked today with l7 others in 35th place.
 All last week, during practice rounds, Shute's eligibility was the major question in locker room dis- cussions. The players appealed on Friday for the committee to reverse it's decision but were turned down.
 Yesterday, as play was about to begin, the playeds went into a hud- dle, drew up a petition, and 50 of them signed 1t. The petition said that omission of Shute from the championship upon the basis of an unintentional error is too drastic We, the undersigned layers, will re- fuse to play unless the executive committee of the P. c. A. exercise their power by voting to admit Shute into the 1889 championship"
 Among the players who signed were Byron Nelson, Ralph Guldahl Henry Picard, Sam Snead, Harry Cooper, Jimmy Thomson, Dick Metz, Gene Sarazen, Runyan and Walter Hagen.
 When the committee realized the players really meant it-play was delayed almost two. hours-it rec versed its decision and allowed Shute to tarts
 Denny had begged the players to Ego out and play--after all, the organization is more important than I am"
 When play finally got going, 1t was Ralph Guldahl and Sam Parks, former Open champions, and Fay Coleman, the 1936 medalist. who set the pace. They scored 68's, four ull- der par, as 2l players shattered reg ulation figures on the first qualify ing round and 20 equalled 1t.
 The consensus was that the quail flying score will be 150 or better. Most of the name players were un- der the 75 bracket when play started today but last years runner-up, Sam Snead, was in danger.
 Sammy, who lost 8 and 2 to Run- van in the 1888 finals, took an atro- cious 77 yesterday. Sam was suffer- ing from poison Oak on his arms.
 At So, were Benny Hogan of White Plains, New York and Tony Joy of YounRstoWn. O.
