Sid Hudson, the lanky blond who
was presenting evidence that he
would be the steadying influence
among Washington's pitchers before
he ripped muscles in his side, will
return to action Sunday against the
Tigers at Detroit. Sid has been idle
three weeks and the Mats have
missed his winning touch.
With Hudson bolstering the Mats
stan, Clark Grifnth's athletes were
a comparative success at the time he
was injured. They had won seven
Of their first Is games and were one
game removed from first place, with
Sid largely responsible with three
victories.
Hudson's injury placed the Mats
on q toboggan and they have been
unable to apply the brakes. With
Sid sitting 'em out, the Mats haxe
lost 10 of their last 10 games,
tumbled into seventh place and are
not within shouting distance Of
league leading Detroit.
That could be remedied In the
next few days, providing the Mats
alter their behavior. The opportunity
to rise will be there, for Washington
was to tangle with the Boston Red
Sox In double header today, then
grab a train for Detroit, where 1t
will open four-gane series to-
morrow.
Mats Have New Losing Streak.
Chick Pieretti and Mickey Haefner
were to face the Red Sox today, with
Walter Masterson slated TO bid for
his fifth victory as he hurAs against
the Tigers tomorrow. Haefner, one
of the few pitchers who held an edge
over the Red Sox last season, still
was trying for his first triumph.

What'd he do? Why everybody
knows he broke a precedent by
running off a tournament with
out any gripes from galleryites
or contestants. No, no, there's
nothing wrong with that, but 1t
simply isn't done. Makes 1t tough
on committees handling future
tournaments, and Jones did 1t
deliberately. Said he was gonna
do it that way and we've got
witnesses that heard him.
Listen, he ran off 10 singles

the time schedule. Said he
couldn't be bothered about time
If he had two fellows ready to
play and had a court open. That
makes it look too easy. You
usually default one or make 'em
stick around until all the courts
are filled and then tell 'em to
come back the next day. The
kind of stuff he's pulling will
ruin the game around here. Why

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland, May so.
Willie Turnesa Of White Plains,
N. Y, and Dick Chapman Of Pine
hurst, N. O., members Of the Ameri-
can Walker Cup team, battled their
way today into the sernifinals Of the
British Amateur Golf Championship.
Turnesa, who won the American
Amateur crown In 1888, put on q
fine stretch drive to eliminate Mar
vim (Bud Ward of Spokane, Wash,
2 and 1, in their quarter-final match.
Chapman put out Robert Rutherford
of Scotland, 3 and 2.
In the semifinals this afternoon,
Turnesa was opposed by John Camp
bell of Glasgow, who eliminated
Bill Wise, the last Englishman left
in the tournament, 2 and l. Chap
mans opponent was Sam McKinlay
Of Scotland, former member of the
British Walker Cup team, who de-
feated James c. Wilson Of this
years British team, 4 and 2.
ALI square at the turn, Turnesa
gained a 1-up lead over Ward at
the 18th hole when the latter played
two shots out of the rough and then
closed out the match with a par 4 on
the 454-yard 17th, where Ward took
a 5 by 3-putting from the edge Of the
big green.
Turnesa, surrounded by fellow
American Walker Cup players con-
graduating him, disclosed that the
tputter he is using here belongs to
his mother-in-law.
81 won the American Amateur in
1888 with my wife's putter and I
promised my mother -in-law I would
| try to win the British Amateur with
hers" he said with wide grin.
Chapman had three of his worst
holes of the tournament on the
first nine, but Rutherford, losing his
steady touch of yesterday when he
beat the American Skee Riegel, was
equally bad. Chapman was stymied
on the sixth hole and his drive was
out of bounds on the seventh, yet he
got no worse than half on either
Of them.
Chapman lost his first hole at
the 18th, where his second shot
went into deep brush and he wound
up with a 6, but he went 3-up again
by winning the short 18th as his
opponent 3-putted. He halved the
next three holes to complete his
victory.

During the past % months,
the Seattle office has exceeded
its quota 10 times and accom-
plished 10 per cent of its dis
posal goal for that period Of
time. Personnel as of December
has been reduced to 673, as a.
gainst our peak employment Of

of personnel will be made in
every 80 day period, in line with
our intention of closing up shop
within the next few months.
This, in spite of the fact that
most of the more desirable sur
plus property has been sold, and
that the remaining merchandise
presents a greater disposal pro-
blem."

day of several important sales.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
@. May I change the course
which I am taking under the
G. I. Bill, for another I prefer
and in which I feel I have a
better future?
A. Yes, providing you obtain
the VAS permission for the
change. If the facts in your
case indicate that a change is
to your best interest, the VA
will grant authority for the
change.
@. If I dropped my National
Service Life Insurance when !
was discharged from the SER
vice, may I now put it back in
force?
A. Until January l, 1910, you
may reinstate your NSLI by
paying only two monthly prem
iums, and signing a statement
that your health is as good as
at the time the policy lapsed.
After that date, if your insur-
ance has lapsed more than
three months, you must prove
your instability by passing a
physical examination.
