A4 NEDINETUDED *BY MISSOMRES Gatholié Group Soon to Enter Fields Beyond Reach of " civilization. A small group of Catholic mission- aries, soon to leave for foreign flelds beyond the yeach of medical aid, are taking a month's course in first aid and preventive medicine at the George- town University Hospital. Their work eventually will take them in wildernesses of China, the Dutch East Indies and Oceania where doctors are practically unknown, so the courses they are undergoing at the hospital are designed to equip them to meet emergencies and take preventive meas- ures against tropical diseases. Mem- bers of the faculties of the Georgetown Medical and Dental Schools are giving them lectures and conducting clinics for their benefit. ‘Two sisters from the Holy Name Hos- pital at Gadsen, Ala, are among the group attending the courses. They are Sister Mary Edward and Sister Mary of the Sacred Heart. who belong to an order known as the Missionary Servants of the Blessed Trinity. Various Orders Represented. The priests in attendance represent various Catholic orders which engage in foreign mission work. They are 14 in number and will leave for their foreign posts in September and October. Some of them may be absent from civ- {lization for years. Rev. Timothy Brosnahan of the Marist College in Washington is one who is destined for Oceania. Despite the disorders in China and warnings given for missionaries and others to stay &way, & number of the priests will go to varjous districts in that country. Rev. Donald Haven, O. F. M, Chicago, is going to the Shantung district in September. Three others, members of the Congregation of Preachers, will go to Honan, China. They are Rev. Dennis Fogarty, Rev. Linus Lombard and Rev. Lleo Berard. From Techny, Ill, Rev. Alphonse Lesage has come here to pre- are himself for service in the Dutch ast Indies, and Rev. Louis Benoit, S. V. D, will join the others in Honan, China. 4 Another group, destined for the Kiangtse district’ in China, comprises Rev. Frederick P. Gehring. Rev. Fred- erick McGuire and Rev. Thomas Mur- hy, of the Congregation of Marists. g‘he remainder, Redemptorist fathers, will return to former mission fields in Porto Rico. They are Rev. Mathew ‘Tobin, Rev. James Gilmartin, Rev. Ed- mund Bowen and Rev. Eugene MoGuil- licuddy. Lectares and Courses. Members of the Georgetown staffs are giving the lectures and courses as follows: Dr. Mollari, tropical diseases; Dr. Grass, first ald; Dr. Nelson Gapen, therapeutics, pharmacology and ma- teria medica: Dr. Pang Constantinople, diseases of the ear, nose and at; Dr. Howard J. Newton, diseases of the mouth; Dr. William N. Cogan, dean of the Dental School, preventive dentistrv; Dr. Joseph B. Lutz, extraction and anes- thesia; Dr. Russell J. Fields, diseases of the skin; Dr. Michael F. Kennedy, diseases of the eye. During their month's course, which ends July 31, quartered at Georgetown College and the sisters at the hospital. For a num- ber of years Georgetown has conducted such courses for missionaries, in view of the fact that those destined for dis- tant fields often are called upon to act #8 physicians.

Twice in succession he three-putted, something he doesn’t do even once in a blue moon. Yet, after each calami- tous short hole, the king manifested the sort of ability that has kept him on the throne. Three times he came back with birdies to offset 50 per cent of the previous damage. These three come- backs, each worth & stroke, furnished the margin by which Jones was able to beat Smith and show the tremendous gallery why he is the champion of shamplons. Smith Fights to Last. Mac Smith, who has had the il luck always to fall just a little short of capturing one of the main prizes of golf, was the only man in the field who refused to be altogether shaken off by Jones' great third round. With a flery start, he cut his deficit from seven to only three strokes on the first three holes of the final rounds. Instead of chasing a will-o’-the-wisp, Mac was actually in the fight again as he started —4— Jones had staggered off at 4—5—>5, three-putting the 370-yard | second and doing the same thing on | the 180-yard third, where Bobby's tee | shot fell into a bunker and his recovery barely reached the green. On the very next hole, the fifth, Jones got back a stroke when he chipped dead from the edge of the green for a birdie 4. Steadymg, he played old man par on even terms through the ninth, where he overshot the green to the practice putting sur- | face, but chipped ba:i to get his 5. Smith bagged a birdie 4 at this hole and rounded the turn in 34, to Jones' Still three strokes apart, Smith reached the high mark of his challenge ‘Wwhen he pulled up to within a stroke of the champion at the thirteenth. A birdie 4 on the 530-yard twelfth gave Mac one stroke and he got another on the 194-yard thirteenth, where Jones again skidded into a bad 5. Bobby's tee shot veered to the rough and he failed to get up the bank to the green on his first try, finally putting his third on and missing a 6-foot putt. Once again Jones banged the door. He came back to the tough 444-yard four- teenth to fire his second 15 feet from the pin and hole the putt for a birdie 3. Mac followed along with a par 4 and was two strokes behind. Gets Birdie on Dog-Leg. After par 4 at the fifteenth, Bobby once again answered the knock of Old Man opgortumty with a birdie that, as it turned out, meant the final margin of safety. This was at the dog-leg six- teenth. He belted a 300-yard drive into the short rough, not over 10 yards from the 315-yard green, then chipped dead for the 3. Smith just missed duplicat- ing this and had to take a 4. It was now three strokes in Jones’ favor, with two holes to go, but the seventeenth nearly cost him the cham- pionship. He pushed his tee shot to the edge of a pond, far to the right of the green, in dense grass and with a clump of trees between the spot and the ele- vated green. It was never actually dis- covered whether the ball sank in the water or soft mud at its edge, for the combined efforts of the crowd and of- ficials failed to locate it. Under the tournament ruling, this pond was a “parallel water hazard” and the pen- alty only one stroke. From back on the fairway, Jones played another ball and his third official shot to the green, 30 feet short of the pin. He needed two putts to get down. Makes Sensational Finish. Smith, coming al to get & par 3 at this dangerous 262-yard hole, was again within a stroke of Jones. Nearly all the spectators on the course, it seemed, stormed about the fairway or were massed 10 deep dround the ele- vated, slcg{:u n, as Jones his his tee shot straight down the middle, then fired an iron straight home, to the front | edge of ths putt;:l:fi surface. The putt he faced was uphill, over a big mound, but it never wavered the 40-foot line to the cup, clinking in the cup to l:ll.mlxi one of the [‘m':ls‘t ki:nishes“l ch on ever gave for gaze at. Aflflhflt old Mac Smith needed to tie was an eagle 2 on this 402-; layout. His par 4 was just a gesture, but it clinched second place for him and first prize money, for the professional clan, of $1,000. Cooper and Horton Smith, who had the slimmest of outside chances when they started the final round, each gained & little on Jones up to the turn. Cooper picked up one stroke and Smith two. They were unable to sustain the pace, however, over the last nine and lost more ground, instead of making it any closer. For the rest of the big field it was just a continued story of sad, sad mis- fortune and hopeless chase after a superman who can occasionally show he is human after all, but whose ma- chineslike golf leaves a loop hole for long.

WEIMAR, Germany, July 12.~The Thuringian Fascist government does not consider that the battle of prayers raging between the federal authorities and the ultra-Nationalist provincial government has been ended by the de- cision of the Supreme Court at Leipsic, by which certain sections of the public school prayer are declared to be un- constitutional. Dr. Frick, Thuringian minister of the interior, today sald he had no intention of eliminating the sections to which the Supreme Court objected. He would merely note the verdict in the Weimar Official Gazette and let it go at that. The Supreme Court decided that two sections of a &rlyer decreed by Thu- ringia for use in the public schools vio- lated argicle 148 of the federal consti- tution. One of these sections spoke of the German people as “torn asunder and destroyed by ungodliness and h trea- son.” The other invoked 's pun- ishment upon the “betrayers” of the Fatherland, meaning those who brought about Germany's change from a mon- archy to a republic.

A three-week course of sun- bathing has been mapped out whereby the beneficiaries are assured of a coat of tan that would be the envy of any lifeguard. Experience has shown, Beckett stated, that exposures every other day of not more than 10 minutes are ad- visable for the first week. The next week exposures every day of 15 minutes are safe, and 20 minutes is permitted “If you stroll into a theater within the near future and discover a (rm:gl of persons with long, slender sticks in their mouths, do not presume they are neces- sarily of sodas or other light refreshment.
