EIGHTY GOLFERS ENTER IN TOURNEY New England Amateurs Mesting in Worcester Worcester, Mass, July 27 (#— Eighty of the district's best per- formers were entered for the sec- ond annual tournament for the ama- teur golt championship of New England opening today at the Wor- cester country club, The competition will be over 36 holes for places in the match play rounds which' extend through to Saturday. Only few of the low scorers will survive the preliminary test and though the course is still just a Bit slow, the fleld fs fast enough to bring the qualifying dead- line well down toward the 160 mark. The calibre of the play should be fairly rapid in that the starting list shows the names of a multiplicity ot top rank players. By the same token the medal scoring should be low. The bulk of the field will doubtless settle itself in the vicinity of 165. The 75 of Jack Winslow of Wor- cester, and the 77 of Dr. F. Tyson, of Augusta, Mdine, were among the low scores made in practice rounds. Frank C. Newton, the Clyde Park veteran who will toss his crown into the ring, is expected to be well up with the leaders because of his splendid short game. The real test for Newton will be a question of stamina. While abroad this spring Newton contracted a muscular ailment in his back that causes him to tire quickly and in consequence he has been forced to curtafl his golf playing considerably during the past few weeks. The local course places a premfum of long hitting, especially since the rains of the week-end have slowed down the fairways, and though a short hitter may save himself by the chip and putt, it stands to reason that in a four day test the former will have a sizeable advantage. Due to the fact that the full quota of chusetfs places in the start- ing list had not been taken up to the time that the entrics closed, Joe Tynch, the new junior champion of Massachusetts, and Chick Donnelly, were allowed to enter. Two states, Rhode Tsland and Maine, are already markedly rep- resented at the course by virtue of the preliminary play. The Pine Tree state has elght sons in the avent and Rhode Tsland 15. GENEVA LOOMING UP AS CITY OF WORLD APPEALS Dr. Willams Says Latin-America May Ultimately Take Her Pro- tests There. ., July 27 (UP) — Latin-America not unaware of the fact that the day may come when her countries may escape from the big stick and policing of Uncle Sam by ppeal not to Washington but to Geneva, Dr. Clavence R, Wil- llams, head of the history depart- ment of the Unive of Vermont, declared in an add here. Dr. Williams spoke on, “how to improve our relations with Latin- America” at the closing session of the conference of Latin-America re- lations of the United States, held un- der the auspicés of the political science department of the University »w Hampshire. The attempt to use the power and wealth of the United States to im- pose our culture on our Latin- American neighbors naturally awak- ens their resentment, and oru claim that in doing so we are thinking not of our interests of their good, awak- ens their decision,” he said. “The educated American knows something about the political and so- clal problems of the great European nations and can name their prom- inent statesmen, and even recall the names of some of their great writ- ers, but the average American neither knows or cares to know the life of Latin-America. Only the business man is interested. Her statesmen are considered petty pol- iticians. and her writers provincial. “Is it any wonder that Latin- America eagerly joins the League of Nations, where Rer representatives, by clever political leadership of their bloc, have gained more than their proportion of elective officers?” Dr. Williams believed cooperation should supersede the old unequal relationships, “a cooperation based on intelligent knowledge, sympathet- ic understanding and sincere re- spect.” TROLLEY CARS CRASH Motorman and Seven Passengers Are Injured in Accident at Rox- bury, MasS.,, This Morning. Boston, July 27 (UP)—A motor- man and seven passengers were in- jured, one perhaps seriously, in a head-on collision between two crowded trolley cars near the Dudley street clevated terminal in Roxbury today.

I, July 27 (A Bishop William A. Hickey of the Providence diocése of the Roman Catholic church in a statement to- day declared that he never had dis- criminated against French-speaking Catholics, He denied numerous charges which are the basis of ciivl suits brought by Elphege J. Daignault, Woonsocket lawyer, against Lis administration of the diocese. His statement came as a sequel to a mass meeting of French speak- ing Catholics at Woonsocket last Sunday, when Daignault urged his hearers to refuse to make donations to church charities. In the eourt action Daignault secks to force the bishop and other heads of the dio- cese to give an accounting of funds collected from twelve FFranco-Amer- fican parishes and used in the con- struction of Catholic high schools. Counsel for the church have re- ipli!’d that the civil courts have no They have asked that the diocesan heads be relleved from further litigation and that the r:lmrges be dismissed by the .court. “It is false,” sald Bishop Hickey, “that T have taken' money from control. I have simply complied with the requisitions of the council of Balti- more in bullding high schools. “I have never advised the French Catholics of my diocese to give up their language. On the contrary, 1 have always advised the French Catholics to remain true to their language and to the traditions of their race. “There are but 80,000 French Catholics in this diocese, 60,000 Ttal- ians, 2.000 Polish, 20,000 Portvguese and in all- mcre thn 130,000 Eng- lish speaking Catkolics. These :re the real preportions. “It is untruc that I have ever re- fused to answer demands made by the French Catholics of Centerdale. No demand has ever been made by them. The only complaint express- ed concerning that parish came from communicants of other cities, while the Catholies at Centerdale seem very satisfied with their pres- ent situation. : “I have recelved for charity dur- ing the present year $320,000 and of that amount I have already helped thé St. Francls Orphanage as well as St. Vincent De Paul, both French inatitutions of Woonsocket, with many thousands of dollars and will help them some more. “The French Catholick are receiv- d in all the Catholic institutions of this state and it is false to say that preference is made for other nation- alities.

Ferdinand's Last Hours “He was like a child in his sim- plicity and faith,” she continued. “When the king of all kings sat on his invisible throne beckoning Ferdi- nand to come, he clung to me pathe- tically and said ‘How can I Feave you and the children and the coun- try?’ he begged me to stand be- tween him and eternity. But God knew better and took him from me. His dying words were: ‘I am tire I want to rest. “Only a few weeks ago I obtained some catalogues and flower seeds from the United States department of agriculture and discussed with the king the planting of them in our gardens, which he now is never to see. The poor man thought he would recover, but the doctors knew otherwise.” Breaks Down and Cries At this point the queen broke down and wept bitterly. She told the correspondent that the king would have liked as a father to have seen Carol before he died, but he could not with propriety and legal- ity see him in view of his conduct and renunciation. With true ma- ternal indulgence and forgiveness, she was eager to have Carol at the bedside, but the king's illmess took such a sudden turp, there was no time to arrange even a deathbed truce between father and son. After she regained her com- posure, the conversation drifted to the members of her family. She de- clared there was no prospect for a | year or more of Ileana or Nicolas | marrying, if even then. “After our period of mourning terminates.” she said, “I hope we will be able to travel. Then, per- haps, we will meet a suitable hus- band for Ileana and an appropriate | wife for Nicolas. In any case, they are both very young. I am in no hurry for either of them to marry, nor are they. Besides, Ileana in some ways is my favorite child, and now I am left a widow, I shall need her companionship more than ever.” When the correspondent suggest- ed Ileana's marriage to King Boris of Bulgaria might make for peace {and solidarity in the Balkans, the queen said: “I admire Borls In many ways, but then it might be awkward if Tleana became queen of Bulgaria, Greece and Rumania are so uncer- tain. It might mean that dleana as | queen would be in conflict with her | sisters, queens of Jugoslavia and [Greece. We must first be able to get along politically before we can | get along in a family way.” “It has been said Ileana formed an admiration for American youths when she visited the Uniteq States with your mafesty,” the correspond- ent remarked. “Would you favor her marrying an American?” Tikes Americans Without a moment's hesitation, the queen responded: “Yes, Tleana liked the way Amgri- can boys danced and conducted themselves. She liked their great deference and reverence toward womankind, too. I would have no | objection to her marrying a nice young American, if she really loved him and I thought they would get along well together. “Ileana is an exceptional girl.

As re- gards hér marrying an American, do you think an Amerjcan who strives 80 much for democracy and simpli- city could easily adapt himself to the new social,status which mar- riage to a princess would bring, and do you think a princess so accustom- ed to honors, titles and attentions could conform without difficulty to the mew life? No Class Distinctien “I make no distinction between classes. T only ask whether two persons who have lived such differ- ent lives and have such different ideas and customs could really rec- oncile themselves to one common standard.” “Is there any likelihood of the princess mother, Helen, remarry- | ing?" the correspondent asked. “Certainly not for some time,” was Marie’s reply, “but we shall see | how matter shape themselves during [the coming vear.

At this point a huge wreath of flowers from the president of the United States arrived, which seemed to touch the queen intensely. She ordered it be placed in a CDHS[)XCI.IO\I!‘ position, Affer asking the correspondent to| thank the American people for their sympathy and thoughtfulness, the queen left the room and disappeared into the shadow of the mortuary: chamber.

There is no written law | against eating peas with your knife (except the one forbidding suicide) or drinkfhg from your saucer, but | there are binding rules of etiquette | which are more stringent than the | laws which compel the food to be | pure. One of the things which are frowned upon by popular and effi- cient champions is the taking of many practice swings during a tour- nament match. Such swings indi- cate an uncertain player and an in- considerate opponent. There are two women golfers who enter the important tournaments of the gea- son, and are actually the bane of the field's existence. They slow up the game for the entire field and keep their oppo- nents waiting while they indulge themselves with practice swing after practice swing during a match. I have seen their opponents lie on the grass, gaze at the clouds, sigh heav- ily and wait and wait. The fact that there is no written rule as to how long you can hesitate before making your stroke, should make players more than ever careful not | to overstep the bounds of fair con- sideration. If these plavers are not certain enough of their shot to make up their minds how to play the shot they should try one practice swing | and then hit the ball.
