Wethered ran up from 120 yards to within 50 feet of the cup and dropped the long putt squarely in the cup to the sound of loud cheers. Jones ran past the hole trying for the half. ® Jones rey his lead of 4 at the twenty-fifth hole where he was down in 4 and Wethered required 5. Bobby outdrove Roger mnearly 100 yards and although the Englishman made a fine iron shot,.the American was inside, 50 feet from the pin. Jones putted to within three inches of cup for his 4 while Wethered had to take three putts. Jones won the twenty-sixth with & par 3 to 4 for Wethered and the Amer- ican went 5 up.

The short twenty-ninth was halved in par 3s and Jones was 6 up with only 7 left to play. The match ended at the thirtieth hole where Bobby scored a par 4 while Wethered took 5. Jones was reaping | the reward of his par golf for he had not been over par on a hole since the twenty-second and had scored two birdies in this stretch, although one was only good for a half, ‘The cards: (Afternoon.)

Jones gained his lead by an unin- terrupted string of 4s and 3s to the seventeenth, where he took his first and only five of the first 18 holes. Wethered played spectacular golf at times, but wild driving and loose put- ing cost him dearly. Through the first nine holes the Briton fought Bobby on even terms and they turned all square. On the homeward nine Wethered ran into a little hard luck. He dropped four holes in a row from the thirteenth through the sixteenth and three of them were lost by putts that just barely missed going down. While the Briton was getting into all sorts of trouble not only on the greens, but from the tees as well, Jones was playing what ap- proximated errorless golf. His medal score for the first half of the match was 71, two under par, while Wethered needed 76. Both went out in 35, but ‘Wethered used up 41 strokes coming home, with 4s, 55 and & 6 on his card.

NEW YORK, May 31.—A police theory that a woman whose body was found floating Thursday in the Harlem River had been strangled and tossed into the water after death, was explod- ed by a coroner’s report yesterday which said she had died of drowning. Dr. Benjamin M. Vance, reporting on an autopsy performed on the body, said the woman apparently had been un- conscious when thrown into the river, WANTED_TO BUY A PEANUT DING machine route: state price and how many machines.

ABOARD BARK CITY OF NEW YORK, May 30.—This morning we had our first sight of the American con- tinent in 18 months. “Truly a Memorial day,” exclaimed our gruff but kindly skipper as he led us in three earnest huzzahs for gallant little Costa Rica and Guatemala. It really begins to look serious now, and the loyal band on the Eleanor Bolling are to be congratulated on their good work, in spite of the fact that, because of the strong head currents and con- stantly recurring squalls, the supply ship has been able to tow us at no greater speed than six or seven knots. Meanwhile, we ourselves have been working with a will; painting, scrub- bing. stowing cargo, and putting things in “shipshape” generally against our arrival in Balboa some time tomorrow afternoon. There the “floating frater- nity house.” as the expedition flagship has quaintly been termed, will take on the de luxe members and about 170 tons of coal. The bunkers, clean as a whistle, have provided a delightfully cool, though dampish, theater for our three times weekly movies. Al that will have to be given up. It is rumored that a Navy tug will take us into tow from the canal for a few days. God speed the tug. If it can only get us to the Guif Stream we can drift up the coast a good way. It is vital that our public should not be disappointed by any further delay. Two years before the mast is almost enough. Copyright. 1930, by the New York Times Co and the St Louls Post Dispatch.

MUSIC MARGARET ALEXANDER'S RECITAL A recital of piano music was pre- sented by Margaret Alexander in the ball room df the Women's City Club ‘Thursday night in connection with the graduation of Miss Alexander as master of music from the Von Unschuld University of Music. The graduation exercises will be held at the Willard Hotel next Friday night when the con- ferring of degrees will be made, Mme. Marie von Unschuld presiding. Miss Alexander won high commen- dation for the professional quality of her playing, with sure command of in- tricate technique, evident understand- ing of the musical phrasing and shad- ing of tones. Every number of her program was well presented. The ball room was filled to capacity and there was much applause for the young pianist's demonstration of admirable memory work in the chromatic fugue by Bach, the sonata by Beethoven— “Les adieux—I'absence et le retour” and the difficult, but brilliant Schultz- Evler arrangement of Johann Strauss’ “Beautiful Blue Danube.” Miss Alexander was graduated from the school in 1928 with the degree of bachelor of music. Since then she has continued her studies and enlarged her repertoire as well as added study in counterpoint, including four-voiced fugues, orchestration and composition. ————e A rare chance to make $40,000 or more on an invest- ment in 67 exceptional acres in the center of the fashion- able country club section, or to convert same into one splendid suburban estate or a number of smaller ones.

Friend Who Accompanied _President on Good Will Trip Is Esteemed. ‘There were indications at the White House yesterday that President Hoover is considering filling the important dip- lomatic post of Ambassador to Tokio. Considerable thought and care is being devoted by the Chief Executive to this appointment because of its importance and delicacy which attaches to the handling of affairs in the capital of the Far Eastern Empire, The designation is necessitated by the recent death of Albert H. Wash- burn, Minister to Austria, who had been selected for the Tokio position. William R. Castle, jr, Assistant Secretary of State, has been filling the post as spe- cial Ambassador during the London Naval Conference, but is now en route to the United States to resume his for- mer dutles. Close Friend of President. ‘The name of Henry P. Fletcher of Green Castle, Pa., former Ambassador to Italy, Chile, Belgium and Mexico and one-time Undersecretary of State, again come to the fore as a candi- date for the Tokio post. A close friend of the President, Fletcher is generally looked upon by both American and for- eign diplomatic circles as one of the outstanding figures of the foreign serv- ice of the United States. Fletcher, because of his intimate knowledge of South American affairs, was chosen by Mr. Hoover when he was President-elect to accompany him on Vice President, make a compromise agreement which must be voted on by both branches. the Capitol, heading for the White House. enrolled on parchment and has heegmngl;:d by the Speaker and the Vice President. long way now, but he will not become HENRY P. FLETCHER. his tour of the Latin-American re- publics. With the President, he was a guest last night at the hunting lodge of Jay Cooke, 3d, at Williamspott, Pa. When he resigned as Ambassador to Italy, it was intimated publicly that Fletcher did so with a view to spending some time in his own country after/ many years of residence abroad. This’ belief here is, however, that Fletcher would have taken the ambassadorship to_London if he had been offered it. ‘White House attaches last night con- firmed that so far no name has been submitted to the Japanese foreign office for the usual approval. The large number of non-career diplo- mats appointed recently to European posts has led some foreign service offi- cers to predict a career diplomat would be selected for Tokio.

Cameron Forbes of Boston, former Governor- General of the Philippines, and Harry Chandler, owner of the Los Angeles 'gtmes, and a close friend of the Presi- ient. William Phillips of Boston, who re- signed as Minister of Canada last De- cember, has also been mentioned, but since Phillips left the service that he might educate his children in the United States this might preclude his taking the post. Two important questions now exist to engage the attention of the next Ambassador to Tokio. These are the London naval agreement, which must be ratified by the Japanese and .the problem of Japanese immigration in the United States, N MISS ETHEL DORR DIES Miss Ethel C. Dorr, 23 years old, died yesterday at her home, 2222 Newton street northeast, after an illness of three years.

Tomor- RELIEF OR SAVING IN TREATY DENIED |Escalator Clause Nullifies Naval Limitation, Senator Johnson Declares. By the Associated Press. Senator Johnson, Republican, Cali+ fornia, one of the foremost opponents of the London naval treaty, issued a statement last night attacking it on the double ground that it would not provide rellef from taxation and that the ‘l;esclhmr" clause, in effect, would nul- y it. ‘There is neither financial saving nor relief under the treaty if we act upon it,” he said. “Likewise, in reality, there is no lim itation, for the treaty specifically pro- vides, under the so-called escalator clause, that any party to it, believing its national security demands it, because of new construction by any other power, may build additional war vessels.” If the United States builds up under the treaty, he said, “and this must be done to make it at all effectual, it will cost this Nation $1,071,000,000.” He also contended that under it “the American Navy must be constructed un- der British specifications.” At the conclusion of a foot ball game for charity at Hythe.
