Glad He Never Has Been Drawn Into Political Life, He Asserts POLITICAL LIFE DISTORTED Says Political Leaders Are Not Wizards or Scoundrels but Average Americans Washington, Sept. 13.—(7)—General John J. Pershing entered on his sev- entieth birthday anniversary today supremely happy that he is and al- ways has been “just a soldier.” ‘I can say with all sincerity that nothing gives me more happiness than that I have never been drawn into political life,” he said. “I have watched what happens to holders of high political office. I have seen their every word distorted and twisted to find some hidden meaning. I have seen their political supporters picture them as prodigies of wisdom and statesmanship while their opponents at the same time set them out as stupid scoundrels. And I have known them, and know that they were neither the one nor the other, just average Americans.” So Pershing looks back over those 70 years. During and since the war there have been many times when his availability as a presidential can- didate was talked of among his friends, never with his assent. He recalled today that- once in Prance, even in the heat of making his army ready for battle, some one said to him that his overseas assign- nae might make him president some y. “I said to him,” Pershing added, must never be ght of among my ‘officers and friends. It did not exist for us in France.” He came home as.he went, a cru- } Is 70 Today J GEN. JOHN J.

Enterprise, her sails full bellied, ap- peared to be increasing her advantage with every minute. The head sails of the Shamrock were fluttering, indi- cating to. nautical observers that she was atempting to sail too close to the wind. Enterprise was over the line like @ thoroughbred race horse as the starting signal sounded at 11:55 a.m., eastern standard time, and at the end of an hour still retained a slender margin over the British cup chal- lenger. In a light wind and over a course shrouded by fog the two boats raced aldng, taking advantage of each va- grant puff of air but with the Ameri- can, defender always in the lead. Just before the first hour ended Shamrock V crept up until the. two craft were STRIKES EAST COA racing almost bow to bow, but soon the Enterprise also felt the favoring airs and again drew away.

Sarazen was the leader by a hole at the end of the first nine. Sarazen went 2up at the llth where Armour missed a short putt but Armour cut a hole away at the 13th when Sarazen sent his ball to the top of a huge trap. After a sen- sational half of the short 14th in when he dropped one from 15 teet, he had no more trouble on the green. Sarazen suffered at the close from wildness from the tree, driving into tough rough at the last two noles.
