Dear Cap,
Just want to say you did a real
job in cleaning Roy Ayers, | think
the facts you put out in The Peoples
Voice had more to do in defeating
him than anything in Montana. Nc
Cone gave Ford almost 300 votes
more than Ayers received.
The fifty bucks l put in last fall
one year ago in The Voice is the best
fifty l every invested.
l was afraid some one would take
shot at you. But If a man is shot
for telling the world the truth then
we find one now and then who will
have to take it. I wish every voter
in Montana was getting The Peoples
Voice.
You are doing good job. More
power to you. Just keep the good
work up and when you cut wood let
the chips fall where they may.
Best wishes, to you and Mrs. Bruce.
Your sincerely,
OSCAR HORSFORD.

thing for any of us to be proud of,
for she hasn't lived here for "a years

sent to congress "a years ago, she
cried like a baby, so the people that
sent her this time better donate some
sheets to catch her tears
And another thing she is past go
years old, we have enough old people
in the White House now, we need new
and young blood, people with up to
date ideas, and another thing we have
TOO many women taking jobs away
from men now and that the machine
age is a whole lot of our trouble to-
day.
Senator Wheeler is one of the big
gest kickers against our President,
and also a third term, but he didn't
turn down a fourth term, though;
why shouldn't a president have third
fourth or fifth term if he is good.
Montana sent a know nothing, do
nothing nazi two years ago and what
does Rankin know about the needs of
Montana and her people but it plainly
shows the money power of Montana

''If Joe Balestri wins this tourna-

low Is working harder than any one
around here. That job he has as
chairman Of the Golf Committee for
this tournament Is no cinch."
Clarence E. Purdy, bell wether of
the printer golfers, was talking. He
looked over to where Joe Balestri,
the swarthy Beaver Dam champ and
current leader of the tourney Of the
Union Printcrafts International Golf
Association, was taking scores, figur-

Demaret on Litt|e's
Trail for Series
OF Matches
Must Wait Until After
P. 6. A., as Jimmy Now
Hos Infected Foot

Anxious for a whack at the fairly
heavy dough commanded by the
National Open champion, the boys
are climbing on the Lawson Little
band wagon and flinging challenges
at the husky titleholder.
Latest to toss a def at Larruping
Lawson is Jimmy Demaret, the
Houston fashion plate and Western
open champion. Jimmy wants a
match or a series of matches
against Lawson, on Littles own
terms, any distance, any place. But
the match or matches can't come
of until after the P. G. A. cham
pionship, for Jimmy has turned up
with an infected foot and won't be
able to play much golf before the
pro match tourney, billed to start
late this month.
At the same time the Demaret
foot trouble gives Betting Benny
Hogan a more or less clear field in
the race for the Harry Vardon
Trophy, carrying with it a check
for grand at the end of the COM
petitive year. Hogan may pile up
points while Demaret is out of COM
petition.
The grim-faced Westchester pro
now leads the money getters and
the point winners in the Vardon
Trophy chase. Unless he bogs
down badly in the P. G. A. and
Demaret goes on to win Hogan
should grab the Vardon Trophy.
Lawson hasn't done too well
financially in his matches with Ed
(Porky) Oliver. Ed is a very good
golfer and more or less colorful
but he hasn't the crowd appeal OF
guy like Demaret. Jimmy hap
pens to be the closest approach to
Walter Hagen in the game. He
goes in for green hats, red coats
flaming shirts and color ensembles
that would win Hottentot.
But above that sartorial display
Jimmy is good mixer around the
locker room, good talker, and, al
in all, a good personality. If Jimmy
CNCl WAllo tIlC NdC1Olidl opCll lle
should cash in as few pros have
done.
The unusual thing about Demaret
is that he takes golf more or less
in stride. He doesn't hold with the
theory that because a fellow plays
well he is little tin god. Jimmy
has the amateur viewpoint on the
game itself and the pro aptitude
for picking up the tournament
purses. He is a refreshing char
acter-this breezy Texan-and one
who would do all right if he tied
up with the Open champ.

Van Horn Still Tennis
Enigma as Surface
Beats Him Easily
Conqueror Sees McNeiII,
Not fhenom Of 1889,
As Coming Champ
BY the Associated Press.

RYE, N. Y, Aug. 7.-Welby Van
Horn, the boy who was going to
make everybody forget about Bill
Tilden last year, is just an inter-
esting topic for speculation this
season.
Welby did nothing to remind the
spectators of Tilden yesterday when
he bowed out of the Eastern grass
courts tennis championships before
Hall Surface, Kansas City veteran.
He lost, 60, 6-3, and that's just
an indication of how he has been
going this year.
Last summer he came from no.
where to earn fourth national rank
ing after losing to Bobby Riggs in
the final of the national singles.
Before that he'd just been No. 2 in
the Junior rankings, but mis- 1899
feats earned him appreciation as
the the brightest prospect of all the
youngsters.
Surface Picks McNeill.
In spite of this years reverses-
or because of them-Van Horn still
is causing a lot of talk among tennis
players and fans. Surface, who has
seen a great many good players,
contends that Van Horns game is
not essentially a good one.
Hal says Welby has to get hot to
win, in contrast to such sound
players as Riggs, Don McNeill and
Frank Kovacs, who can experience
off days and still play well enough
to win. Surface, in fact, is touting
McNeill as the next national cham
pion.
1t was no great surprise that the
veteran won yesterday. For Sur
face showed signs at southampton
last week that he was getting back
near top form. A paint salesman in
the off season, Hal played little dur
ing the winter and has been get
ting into shape on the present tour.
He never has been ranked higher
than seventh, in 1888, but he isn't
likely to drop lower than his pres
ent No. IL spot.
Needs Only 30 Minutes.
Hal needed only 80 minutes to
beat Van Horn, capturing IA points
in a row in one part of the first set
and IL of the last IA.
There were no other upsets in the
second round of either the mems
or women's divisions. Riggs and
McNeill won handily from Ronnie
Lubin and Larry Dee. Advancing
with them were Hank Prusoff, Bitsy
Grant, Gil Hunt, Joe Hunt and
Gardnar Mulloy. Dorothy Bundy,
Sarah Palfrey, Pauline Betz. Helen
Bernhard, Gracyn Wheeler ard Vir-
ginia Wolfenden were among the
women winners.

CHICAGO, Aug. THE 72-hole
women's Western Gold Derby has de-
veloped into a private battle for
honors between Elizabeth Hicks, de-
Tending champion Of Long Beach,
Calf, and Ellamae Williams of
Chicago, State amateur champion.
Going into the third round today
the two young women were tied at
156, eight strokes ahead of their
nearest rivals for the title.
Miss Williams reached the half
way mark in the medal play event
yesterday even with Miss Hicks by
shooting a two-under-par "a while
the Californian was duplicating her
round of 78. Miss Hicks set the
tournament record a year ago when
she finished the 70 holes in BOT.

into third place behind the two pace
settlers with second-round 81 for
an aggregate of 164. Mary Agnes

Dan Chandler of Dallas were tied at

were Beatrice Barrett of Minneapo-

Dodgers Flying Taste

NEW YORK, Aug. 7 (N.A.NA).-
The Brooklyn Dodgers will fly to

In a body.
Mr.. Phelps is a great lover of
terra firma. What terra firma ever
did for the Babe to make him feel
that way is something that puzzles
his teammates, but the fact re-
mains that Mr.. Phelps is highly
suspicious of the new-fangled flying
machine, and will probably eschew
that form of locomotion until he
receives assurance from the Wright
brothers, i'll Kitty Hawk, N. c., that
the thing is practical. Word has
just reached the Babe that the boys
are working on a heavier-than-air
device down there.
Thus, pending the flash from
Kitty Hawk, Mr.. Phelps is likely
to stick to the railroad train, which
he still regards as a marvel of SCI
ence and refers to as the iron horse.
There is a theory among his team
mates that the Babe travelled by
