BossIer's Victory in Maryland Golf Tourney
Adds to Barnett|s Prestige as 'Discoverer
By MerreII WhittIesey

Chevy Chase Pro Bob Barnett
Joined the gallery following the
Maryland State four ball champion
ship final back in the summer of
1916 and obviously was impressed
with the play of young Baltimore
amateur, Charles Bassler. The ex-
Marine was hitting the ball ire
mendous distances and was conf
dent and serious about his golf.
That young fellow would make a
good pro prospect" Barnett men
toned to Spencer Overton, Basslers
partner. He'd like to turn pro-"
Overton replied and Barnett said,
Hes got a job, starting tomorrow
morning if he likes"
Bassler quit the amateur ranks
the next day. He remained at
Chevy Chase for 10 months. Under
Barnett's tutelage he quickly de-
veloped into a capable teacher and
player. In his first pro tournament
he played his former home course,
Rolling Road, in under par for SO
holes to edge Lew Worsham for the
Maryland servicemen's title. Last
year he was the biggest winner in
this section in the one-day pro
tournaments, qualified for the Ma
tional Open.
Bassler a Considerable Fellow.
When it became known last year
that the Rolling Road pro job would
be open, Bassler was approached.
He turned it down, as he was afraid
of offending Glenn Spencer, the pro
he eventually succeeded. He had
caddied at Rolling Road, played
amateur golf when Spencer was pro
there. But the members finally
convinced him Spencer was out and
that somebody else would get the
lob il he didn't. SO Bassler took over
at the age of e. A pro less than
two years, he had one OF the top
jobs in this section.
With the added responsibilities OF
his new Job, Bassler had less time
for the practice tee and tourna-
ments this year, and his scores
showed it. He had not commanded
much attention in the first half OF
the pro schedule, but to him yes
terday's Maryland Open champion
ship seemed a natural. He was
going back to Chevy Chase, course
he loved to play, and always played
we'll.
Charley started fast yesterday
and they never caught him. He
was one under par for the first
eight holes, better than anybody
else, and nobody matched his morn
ing 70. He was the 27-hole mark
leader with 70-37, and his four
over-par 70-72-142 won the 1925
top prize by two strokes.
Barnett on His Stick.
Who was second? Barnett, the
fellow who gave Bassler the job
and what was his score? 1t was
71-73-144, six under par, for the
veteran red-head who has been at
Chevy Chase for many OF his 81
years. That's not six under par
for the course, but six under
Barnetts personal par, as he claims
he cannot reach the greens in regu-
lation figures on six of the 10 holes,
and thus his par should be IS,
not SO.
Barnett, known as Master of the
Graceful Swing" to his home club
members, remained in contention

because of his sensational putting.
He needed only Is puts in the
morning, putted well In the after
noon. He was mighty tired but
mighty happy when he finished, as
by that time he knew that if his
score didn't stand, his ex-protege
was the only one who could beat
him.
Bassler actually won the tourna-
ment on the 9th and 10th holes of
the afternoon. On the 9th he hook
ed vicious tee shot, apparently out
of bounds on the long par three. He
hooked another in the shrubs, but
found his first ball in bounds and
blasted a shot that hit past the pin
in a puddle of water and backed up
to the cup. On the 10th he carried
over the green on the par three into
more shrubs. He rolled long, dan
gerous shot onto the green, about Is
feet away, then dropped the putt.

into panic by late warnings of dan

Reports of casualties, Berry
said, are very conflicting and en-
tirely premature. Associated Press
reports have already indicated
that no one knew how many of the
1900 Vanport residents had per-
ished. Portland city officials adj
NIT that there is no way of max

Young Woman Held On Bond Of $1,000
Following Inquiry Into Accidental Death
Of Local Barber
Wife Charges Valuables Taken From
Husband Following Accident

A young woman, reputedly his
girl friend, who was riding in the
truck with Chrisler Hodges, well
known local barber. who was kill
ed in an accident on Highway 40,
just outside the city limits of
North Jackson late Sunday after
noon of May 23rd, was placed
under $1,000 bond, to await the
action of the Kinds County Grand
Jury, following hearing in the
case, before Justice of the Peace,
CT. Graves, last Friday.
The young woman, is Mary
Parish, of North Bloom Street, and
an operator in a Parish Street
beauty shop.
The young woman was arrested
on complaint of Mrs. Willie Mae
Hodges, wife of the dead man, who
charged that when her husban
left home in the afternoon before
the fatal accident, he was carrying
on his person a large sum of
money, and wearing a valuable
watch, aside from other valuables
believed to have been in his pos
session and on his person at the
time of the accident.
According to reports the wife
had made several efforts to have
the young woman turn over to her
the missing valuables and money
before filing the complaint and
bringing about her arrest.
During the hearing before the
Justice of the Peace, the young
woman is reported to have con-
tinued to dey that she had taken
anything from the man after the
accident, although a number of wit
nesses stated that the dead mans
wallet an watch was missing when
his body was picked up at the
scene of the accident.
Judge Graves orered the young
woman bound over to await the &C
ton of the Kinds County Grand
Jury, and fixed Bond at $1,000 after
testimony was introduced pur-
porting to show that she had not
only taken the valuables from the
mans body, but that she was
chiefly responsible for the accirent
In this testimony it was charged
that while the truck was travel
ling at high rate of the speed,
the young woman, grabbed the
the steering wheel causing the
truck to leave the highway and
crash into a telephone pole.
Early this week the young wo-
man was still being held in the
Kinds County Jail while friends
we're making efforts to post the
$1,000 Bond.
