COOPER LEADS IN GOLF TOURNAMENT (Continued From First Pagg.) l Harrison Johnston, Minneapolis amateur, had blown meanwhile and lost all chance by taking an 87. On his first round, Cooper shot a 74 through the rain, following it on Wednesday with a 76 which left him in a tie with Hagen for fourth place. | The confident young English-born pro went out in 38 today and came home in 36, dropping one stroke to par each way. His 74 was among the best. | “Light Horse” missed a two foot! putt for a four at the second. He played even par for a while and then | was trapped at the eighth. Cooper was home in two at thul long ninth and got his birdie four. Five par holes followed. He was in the rough at the 15th was well out but missed another 3 footer for a four. He took three putts at the 16th then holed a 15 footer at the 17th. Walter Hagen had a 76 to add to his 150. Archie Compston, the tall British pro, made 76 and was five strokes behind Cooper with a total of 229. Gone Sarazen, who was second when he set out on his third round, dropped far back with an 80, fsr a total of 228. In the absence of anything sensa- tional from the leaders, attention turned to Bobby Jones and Bobby turned the outward journey in 38, one over par. The champion needed ‘par on the nine to tie Hagen. ve got to beat Hagen if I want to win,” sald Bobby and he meant “-Hnm Cooper, two strokes farther in front, was considered less dan- gerous by the champion. ‘Bobby had two birdies on his way out. Hiscardread: 5454443 4 5—38. It represented the loss of a stroke at the third, where Bobby found the rough, at-_the sixth, his old memesis, and at the tricky eighth. Jones had birdies at the fourth and seventh. Tommy Armour of Rockville, Md., sipped into second place in the afternoon, when he turned in a card of 16 for his third round. The former Washington professional's total was 225. The champion took 79 for his third round, and has a total of 232, eight strokes behind Harry Cooper, the leader. When Bobby finished his disap- pointing third round, in which for, one example, he had a six on a par thres hole, the world's greatest golfer ylelded up his second na- tional championship within a year. Bobby was a sad boy when he tramped up to the clubhouse shak- ing his head after his, morning round. Jones had a good chance to move right up among the leaders when he turned in 38 for the first nine. Two sixes, a five and six fours was what Bob's card showed on the way home. Not a single three, not even on the short par 3 holes usual- Iy so easy for the titleholder. Fortles, 42's and 44's, were all too common among the early starters. Oakmont's supremacy over the golfer | still was undisputed. Two of the entrants, Felix Berafin and Eddle Murphy, even were dis- qualified for failing to show up on time. Long Jim Barnes strolled out un- concernedly with nobody paying at- tention, and hit the turn in 38, the best of the early performances. A nine on the long 12th hole broke the Slim Swede’s heart and he trudg- od home without a single spectator to accompany him to the green. “Well I just did it,” said Johnston, unconsciously paraphrasing another famous young descendant of Scan- dinavia. Johnston made no attempt to ex- cuse his failure. “I got into the traps,” he sald, “and I took too many getting out.” George Gadd, Britisher, was among the casuaities. He was disqualified at the 12th hole for playing the wrong ball. He had gone out in 43. Eddie Loos and Tommy Harmon, Jr., were the only ones among the early starters to reach the turn in par 37. Walter Hagen, now the public's choice to win the title, came around in 76, four strokes above par. It gave Hagen a total of 226 for the three rounds. To win and justi- fy the public confidence, Walter needed an extraordinary last round, but he appeared capable of shooting one. | Havers Goes Well Arthur Havers of Great Britaln not many years ago rated the ‘“un- ofticial champion of the world,” shot a brilliant 35 for his first nine holes today. This was two strokes under par, and much better than most of the leaders were doing. Havers, however, was t0o far be- hind for his threat to alarm the first ten. Starting out with a par five at the first, Havers shot a great round, never above par and with & couple of nifty birds. His cagd for the first nine read 544 443 434—35. George Gadd explained his disqual- ification to the United Press as fol- lows: “I sliced into a bit of rough, don't you know, and when I got there, I saw a ball lying in the grass. So I took my shot, and then what should I do but find gnother ball. The second ball, most unfortunately, don't you know, was mine so I had to tell them to disqualify me.” Ted Ray of Great Britain turned in a 17, for a total of 236. Joe Turnesa, who was second to Jones in the 1926 open at Scioto, took & 78 today, for a total of 238. After appearing for a moment as a possible contender, Jim" Barngs faded out and took an 81 for a total of 234. Larry Nabholz of S8haron, Pa., had a 78 for a three round gross of 284. 7Tommy Harmon, Jr, who had heen out in par, took 43 strokes get- ting home over the last nine, and added an 80 to his first two rounds for a total of 236. % Leo Diegel of White Plains needed 80 today. He has 232 for his total. .

Bedard from Bagotville, stating that George Brousseau, a trapper, who had just arrived there, reported hearing a sound like that of an airplane on the evening of May 9, the day after the takeoff of the French plane from Le Bourget. The night was very foggy, he said, | but while near the St. Marguerite river, he clearly heard the throb- | bing of a motor in the air. He ex- | pressed the opinion that it was go- [!ng in a northerly direction. { Bedard, discussing reports that flares had been stolen from the Roberval air station and that they | were being used to perpetrate a | hoax. said this morning that he had | received no such report from the | air station, and that he believed the | story of the theft of flares to be “ab- solutely untrue.” 'WOMAN COURTS DEATH BY SITTING ON TRACKS (Continued from First Page) | At the outset, Attorney Lawrence .

Strength of these issues contrasted, however, with unmistakable signs of foreed liquidation in & handful of special- ties, Steady absorption of General Mo- tors, U. 8. Steel and Baldwin and many of the rail shares gave impet- us to the upward trend. carrying more thar a dozen issues into new high ground for the year, General Motors reached 203 7-8, a'gain of & points and only fractionally under its peak price for all time. Rock Island got to 115 and St. Louis- Southwestern touched 861, both the highest ever attained. Strength of New York Ontarlo and Western New Haven caused a revival of rumors that control of the former would pass from the New Haven to another system. New York Central reflected realizing aft- er yvesterday’s pronounced advance. Further cuts in crude rubber prices was reflected in a fresh de- cline in the rubber shares and weak ness of U. S. Rubber common and first preferred gave rise to some ap- prehension over the safety of the dividend on the latter. Omission of the dividend on American Lin- iseed preferred, causing a sharp re- cession, and selling of Burns Broth- ers A and Foundation Company on a large scale also were reflections of current firregularities in general business.

At River Bend it was learned that there was nothing def. inite in the report, but the general story there ran that the aviators had been found alive on the north bank of the Shipshaw river. Blais was reached over the tele- phone and sald that he had discov- ered that the report was without foundation and that it had been brought to River Bend by a forest worker who had proved unreliable. Blals sald that when he had first heard the report, he thought it cor- rect and sent the news to his mother in good faith. On finding that it was erroncous, he sent & telegram to this effect. Information was received from two sources telling of further efforts, to find trace of the missing aviators. The messages were received by the chief of the provincial forestry serv- ice. One message was from Eudore Racine, & forestry engineer of Chi- coutimi, stating that observers on towers on the rivers Ferland and Mendache had seen flashing lights Tuesday night which appeared to be floating on the waters of the Perin- bonk river.

White Plains, N. Y., June 16 (@~ Arthur Barry, member of Long Is- land's “gentlemen burglars” band Was a better crap shooter than jew- ¢ thief, according to Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Coyne. In the three and one-half years that Barry is alleged to have been robbing Long Island homes of Jew- els he got less than $20,000 for his share in the loot of the baad,- Coyna estimated.

Policeman Harrison was slain in July, 1928, during an attempted robbery at a Heathcote residence. STRANGLER CAPTURED Man Sought By Makes His Escape But Is Takea Into Custody Soon Afterwards.
