Ex-Grid Great In Suicide

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April
19-W.H-Racked by tubercu-
losis, Charles Herbert Treat,
II, one-time football great of
Princeton University plung-
ed to his death from a ninth
floor hotel room early today.
He left a note to Muriel K.
Treat, Washington, W. Va.
In it he said:
ION vacation couldn't
stand it."
In his playing days in the
early 1920s, Treat was an ALI
American selection and Walter
Camp once described him as
perhaps the finest tackle de-
veloped in the east.
The health that marked
those years had faded into
incurable tuberculosis. He
recently spent several months
in a Rutland, Mass. sanitar-
ium and was en- route to Ari-
iona.
Treat starred in football at
Boston College in 1920 and the
following year transferred to
Princeton. There in 1922 he
won his All-America rating.

18th Straight
Babe Zaharias Forced To2O
Holes To Lick Georgia Star

PINEHURST, April 49, up -
Mrs. Babe Didrickson Zaharias Of
Denver scored her 18th straight
tournament triumph today but only
after one of the tightest tussles
she'll ever have-a 20-hole battle
with Louise Suggs, Lithia Springs,
Ga, in the North and South Wom-
ems golf championship.
Bigger, stronger and with con-
siderable more length, Mrs. Ia
harias just couldn't pull away from
the little Georgian, the defending
champion, who combined fine shots
and scrambling to hang on, until
the goth.
Here, Miss Suggs approached too
boldly and sailed Is yards over
the green. Still short of the carpet
coming back, she putted six feet
past the hole and conceded to the
Babe whose chip lay two feet from
the hole for an easy par four.
Miss Suggs was never up. Two
down after four holes, she finally
squared the match on the 10th.
Then as fast as Babe would win
one, Louise would come back to
square. The Babe laid her one dead
stymie, which cost her fourth hole,
and three partial stymies which
she got by. Hers was a daring,
determined fight against a strong
er foe, and it almost won for her.
In their only previous match, she
beat the Babe in the Western Wom-
ems open last summer.
Both had approximate IT'S, one
over women's par, for the 6,145
yard No. l course.
A victory in the trans-Mississippi
tourney at New Orleans will enable
Mrs. Zaharias to carry a clean
sweep winter-spring record to Eng,
land in June when she goes after
the British women's crown.
