calendar and so be protected. There
are SO many groups that this is needed

Wins Nomination

The famous battle of the Clarences
fol the Democratic nomination for
governor of the state of Washington
eliminated at the polls Tuesday whom
the voters expressed their preference
for C. C. Dill, for United States SEN
ator. Dill won the nomination by ma
iorities which in some communities
reached landslide proportions. He had
been given an edge by most observers
but no one imagined that his major
tiles would be so great.
Arthur B. Langlie of Seattle will
oppose Dill in the general election,
having literally swamped his oppon-
ents on the Republican ticket.
Stephen F. Chadwick, who recently
turned Republican, will oppose Mon
C. Wallgren, Democrat. in the race
of United States Senator.
Knute Hill, Democrat. and Frank
Miller, Republican, easily defeated
their primary opposition for nomina-
tions as Representative in Congress.
| Vic Meyers, Democrat. and Charles
Maybury. Republican, will lead then
parties in the race for lieutenant gov
ernor. Meyers led the Democratic vote
in nearly every precinct in the state,
e2c ept Coulee City.
The most ardent supporters of e.
w. Schwellenbach running for judge
of the Superior Court for Douglas and
Grant counties, did not even foresec
his tremendous strength. He captured
far more votes than his two opponents
combined, thereby winning the Judge
ship in the primaries.

Detroit, July 23-(UP)-Along the hardened fairways of Rackham Municipal golf course, the plans and dreams of 127 weekend golfers" seeking the GA match play berths in the National Public links golf tour nament, crash in the qualifying round today.
 This is the day they're Topped off If they slip behind the field and yesterdays sensational shooting in- dicated that it would require score of 148 or better to make the grade.
 Leading were Charley Ferrera, 35- year-old structural steel worker title in 1881 and 1933; Fred Hill, from San Francisco who won the student salesman from Worcester, Mass, Adrian French, unemployed draftsman from Huntington Park, Cal, Luke Barnes, fresh out of a high school in Atlanta, Ga, Charley Harter, Indianapolis meat packer and Worth Stimits, Colorado college junior whose chief achievement is the Rocky Mountain conference championship this season.
 Ferrera almost didn't make the trip. He missed out on expense money, failing by one stroke to qualify for the San Francisco team.

JOHNSON RULED |OK AS BROOKLYN
 A.C. .MIOUNDSMAN
Protest Tossed Out; TOm- mies-B. A. C. in Feature
 Game Sunday

Insofar as the team standing of the City Amateur Baseball League is concerned everything will remain "as is" because the protest filed by the Sacred Heart management agaist the Brooklyn A. c. claim ing ineligibinty of Pitcher Lefty Roy Johnson was tossed out the window last night at a meeting of managers and league officials.
 Several weeks have passed since the protest was originally filed by Gene Oyer, former manager of the Hearts with official information rel ative to Johnson slow in coming, but 1t was on hand last night and in- cluded communications from the Mountain States League where Johnson played as a paid pitcher a year ago and from the National Amateur Baseball Federation which wrote that Johnson was eligible in the local league as long as he had his release from the three profess sional teams with which he was af- filiated last year.
 On The. Way
 Therefore the Brooklyn A. c. has the green light" again and will de- vote this week to sharpening up for its test of the season next Sunday against the leading North End Tommies, with a chance that the game will be played at the Munich pal Stadium. League managers will definitely decide that point at a spe- cial meeting tomorrow night.
 Had the protest against the Brooklyns and Johnson been up- held, the B. A. c. would have for feited all game won to date which would give the Sacred Hearts the lead at this time. Tribunes and Overlooks, Washington Hills and Sacred Hearts are the other games scheduled for Sunday.
 Nothing has been heard from the Black Yankees wanted for a bene- fit exhibition game in August to help defray hospital and medical expenses for injured players this season.
