Pacific Northwest association of the
Amateur Athletic anion decided to
divide the Pacific Northwest associa

each of the cities baa not yet been
arranged.
Heretofore the indoor meet has
been held in one evening and the pro
gramme has necessarily been long
and rather tiresome from both the
spectators and contestants' view
point.
A swimmer entered in the 50-yard

Goldea C.ate Swim Held.
A th final of a most strenuous
summer aa a champion swimmer,
i-tubby Kruger won the Golden Gat
swim yesterday. Stubby waa the
favorite of all who had watched the
boy In training for th past two
weeks. He took to the waters of th
golden Gat every afternoon. Kruger

Gat swim of 20 minute 44 second,
which was set by Walfer Pomeroy of
the Olympic club In 112. but waa de
terred by a strong Incoming tide that
at times threatened to carry all the
swimmers against the rocky sides of
Alcatraz. Nevertheless the time of
Z 7 minute 3 2-5 second that waa
made by Stubby yesterday will stand
for sometinfe to come.

How to Play Golf.
THROUGH the green and particu

against th hurrying habit. Vary of
ten when approaches, especially short
ones, are not going Just right, you
will find that a little more delibera
tion, generally in th back awing, la
all that la needed to put you Into form
again.
The same applies to bunker play.
Do not get excited when you see your
ball la In a bad spot and dash over to
it and try to whack It out anyway.
Thar is always some directioa easier
than other to get out of a bunker
and It is not always towards the hole.
Remember the secret of good bunker
play is not getting startling ail it out
of them, but to get out as cheaply as
possible, never exceeding your oeir
appointed allowance of one tttioke to
play out.
Also take time to examine the kind
of ground you are likely to land on
when th ball goes out. Ouu some
times sees people play out of one
trap into another or Into very heuvy
grass. Just because they do not stop
to sise up the situation properly. But
after you have sised it up deliberate
ly and made your decision, act
promptly and keep to the one idea,
without thinking whether some other
plan might not have been better. A

tion of the car shortage in th lumber
industry In western Washington Is
to be made personally by a repre
sentative of the railroad admlnlstra
tion who left her tonight for th

Seattle, representing the West Coast
Lumbermen's association, arrived here
today and will appear before the rail
road administration to say that th
lumber business of western Wash
ington Is being stifled by inability to
obtain cars.
It was denied by the railroad ad
ministration today that the shortage
of refrigerator cars for handling the
apple crop at Hood River had grown
serious. With reference to this com
plaint Director-General Hine said
that all demands have been met not
withstanding calls for 32,000 cars to
save the grape crop of California,
which heretofore has been used for
making wine.
"Everything possible will b done
to meet the requirement, not only at
Hood River, but th other producing
sections." said Director-General Hines,
"and while I do not wish to predict
that there may not be some shortage
in filling the current orders from day
to day, I do feel that we are going to
be able to protect the movement with
out loss of the product.

BIG PURCHASES WATCHED
RESALE OP ARMY SURPLUS IS
FORBIDDEN.
Complaints Are Received That
Thefts of Merchandise Are Be
coming Frequent Near Store.
Officials in charge of the quarter
master's government store are keep
ing close tab on purchases made in
suspiciously large quantities. Goods
on sale in the store are intended only
for the consumer and it will be ex
tremely difficult, say the government
men, for dealers to get articles in any
quantity for resale without detection.
Resale of the government goods is
forbidden.
Reports of thefts of goods from
careless patrons of the store are be
coming rather numerous. The thefts
are generally perpetrated when some
enthusiastic purchaser of three or
more cases of beans or tomatoes car
ries these out, one at a time, and
leaves them at the side entrance.
There are guards at the entrance but
it is not a part of their duties to
watch over articles that have been
sold. Patrons are urged to bear in
mind thai the government cannot
protect their property and is not re
sponsible in case it is earned away.
The store is handicapped by slow
arrival of promised goods. During
the past two days no new goods have
arrived and supplies of many artiales
have been depleted. There has been
no canned corn to offer since the day
the store opened.
