London, July 16 (A—Bobby Jones, in an interview today, said he had only a faint hope of winning the British open golf championship at St. Andrews again, and that he re- garded his victory as the greatest thing he had ever done. “I would rather have done what I have done,” he said, “than anything 1 have previously accomplished or ever likely to. “When in 1921 I came over to play in the British open I drove rather badly. I picked up my ball in the middle of the third round like a petulant youngster because I was running into a lot of sixes. I may as well confess I never could quite get the sting of that incldent out of my memory and in some ways it ap- peared to me that by coming back to the same old course essaying the i defense of the title I might in some measure retrieve that boyish error on this same course six years before. “I had oply a faint hope of win- ning again but when I went in I was perfectly sure no matter how badly played I'd finish the four rounds. I love the British golfing public and for their gallery here I have the sin- cerest admiration. They arc the most discriminating I have ever played before, and they are generous with thelr applause, which means something because of that discrim- | As long as 1 live I'll never | ination. forget that reception by those fine golfing and sporting enthusiasts af St. Andrews, home of golf, and T'd | like my friends in the United States to realize just how splendidly gen- | the British public has been erous to me.” HELD AS BURGLARS Brookline Patrolman's Cleverness Results in Capture of Desperadocs in Man's House. Brookline, Mass..

Rescrves were summoned and the house surrounded before the trapped men were aware of the presence of the police. Murray was captured as he attempted to rush from the house, revolver in hand. Carey was found under a sofa. The Weeks family was not at home. Beautiful Hollyhocks Grown by Andrew McGill A very fine display of hollyhock: the stately, sentinels of the old fash- ioned garden, are to be seen on the ! property of Andrew McGill, oppos| his home on the corner of Highland and Linwood streets. The property is adjacent to Walnut Hill park which provides an excellent back ground for the flowers. Mr. Me- Gill, who is a lover of flowers, has a great many other specimens but at the present time, the display of these old fashioned perennials is an | outstanding feature.
