BY ART KRENZ NEA Service Golf Writer

Tommy Armour holds the right elbow close to the body.
 Strong hands enable the Silver Scot to use this elbow position.
 The average golfer requires more leeway to complete the backswing.
 Being q hand hitter, Armour uses less body action.
 His hip movement is more of g lateral shift than rotation toward the right.
 Armour requiyed a birdie 3 on the final hole of the 1927 National Open at Pittsburgh's Oakmont to tie Harry Cooper. Although on the fairway, none too good drive left him with an approach of 200 yards. One of he finest iron players, he rified the ball to within nine feet Of the flag.
 The putt dropped to put Tommy Armour in a play-oif with Harry Cooper, whom he defeated, 70-TO.

grinned at her and said: ITS nothing

Iona wept.

America, but should like to do some
thing in Holland, too"
Living quietly with her Aunt Their
esa, who cooks her an extra special
Hungarian meal if she gets homesick,
Ilona seems never struck by the
thought that her own courage and de
termination have brought her to sue
cess. As grateful now as she was when
she first came to Hollywood, she gives
all the credit to others. Everyone
is so kind to me. Everyone helps"
Gratitude is as rare, and as well
come, in Hollywood as in Kokomo.

Willard Wayne said, "there must
be something that he doesn't dare
have turned up. It's been our only
hope, all along, that we could find
out what it is. And if you've got
hold of it?"
Dick Wayne had meant to tell
them, tonight, what he knew. He
had meant to tell them that their
father had not killed Garrett Wa
terson-had even meant to give
them an irrefutable proof. But now
his temper broke, and he could not
bring himself to tell them anything
at all.
He stood up. Get out of here, :"
he ordered them. "Get out Of here,
and stay outI I can't stand looking
at you any morel"

Suddenly it was one o'clock and

no sound from Davie for an hour!
No answer when she called from

Of course he had gone to find the
sleigh, the tipped-over sleigh and the
presents. How could she have failed

her on a search which might last for
hours. Nothing to do, then, but wait

CHAPTER TX

Dick Wayne went to bed, but it
seemed to him that he was not al
lowed to stay there long. The first
light was hardly showing in the sky
when his brothers were at him
again, literally clamoring at his very
bedside.
Evidently they were angry, In adj
dition. What is the meaning of
this?" Ernest Wayne demanded,
spinning a yellow sheet of paper
onto the bed.
What's the meaning of what?"
Nobody but you," Ernest accused
him, could have had that radio
message sent"
Dick picked up the paper, and by
the poor but increasing light read
what was typed upon it. Instantly
he was more wide awake than as if
he had never slept at all.
"When did this come inn"
"Just a few minutes ago." Viii
lard told him. "You ought to know.
There isn't anybody else that
could"
Tonga Dick looked at the mes
sage again. It read:
MAKE NO SETTLEMENT UNTIL
I ARRIVE GARRETT WATERSON
Dicks first reaction was, for spe-
cial reasons of his own, one of i'm
mense relief. But his next thought,
which followed Immediately brought
him new uncertainty. The new
turn of events relieved him of GER
tain necessities; but it also took the
game out of his own hands in a way
that he did not like.
Ernest Wayne's nervousness did
not permit him to wait Dick out.
'sWell-what have you got to say?"
This message is genuine" Dick
told them.
This is incredible-thi is fantas-
TIC" Ernest said unsteadily.
Some kind of a hoax" Willard
added.
There's no hoax about it." Tonga
Dick assured them.
How do you know this?" Willard
demanded.
81 work for him." Tonga Dick
said.
"You what?" Ernest Wayne bleat-
ed.
Hes lying" Willard expressed
himself.
"And just why" Dick asked with
elaborate patience, should I be ly-
mg?"
Willard" Ernest said, "do you
suppose this thing could possibly be
true? Because If Garrett Waterson
is alive, and we can produce him
do you see what that means? John
Colts case is absolutely exploded. !"
SIS it?" Dick said.
They were stopped once more. Err
nest and Willard were both deathly
pale, overwhelmed by more unfore-
seen uncertainties than they were
able to handle.
''You mean," Willard said at last,
''that Garrett Waterson really is IN
competent"
''I mean," Dick said, ithat the
whole situation is going to be just
exactly what old Garrett Waterson
chooses to make It."
''What on EARTH" Ernest asked
Willard in bewildered way, "are
we supposed to do now?"

of age like noise-makers. For them
we might suggest set of a half a
dozen baking powder tins, each with
something in it to make a noise, as
buttons, nails, paper clips, pebbles

tents might be easily swallowed, the
tops should be firmly cemented on

SCRAP IRON TO JAPAN

For years, the heaviest foreign
buyer of U. S. scrap iron was Japan.
Despite much public protesting, the
state department permitted Nippon

coming home to roost.
With defense production swinging
into full tide, the u. S. suddenly is
confronted with a serious scrap
shortage. For various reasons, de-
tense chiefs are saying nothing
about the situation. But it is very
acute. A number of steel makers
have privately reported curtailed
production schedules in the offing
