CDOLIDGE TRIES
: SUPERIOR. Wis... Aug. 20.
(AP). Prevented by rain from
going out on the Brule river for
hie favorite pastime. President
Coolidge turned to trapshooting
again today and bettered all his
previous-records by making 24
bits out of 25 shot.
Satisfied with the sport after
this display of skill, he closed him
self up in the house for the rest
of the day, working at his desk.
President Coolidge astonished
. his trapshooting companions to-
day with his high percentage of
bits, for which he used a 12 bore
! repeating shot gun at the usual
distance of 4 8 yards. Others
' present, who had considered
LUCK W TH
GUN
themselves much better ehots,
i eould not equal the Chief Execu-
-y? I: tive'a performance.' " As far as
i they knew Mr.-Coolidge had not
$ 'I brought a gun to his shoulder for
4 many years until this summer.
't On a previous occasion, about one
Month ago he had made seven hits
at of nine shots.
Mr. Coolidge had a new exper
ience Saturday I night .when he
went fishing on the Brule river at
S -p. m., and stayed until close to
- . midnight. The president was de
l lighted with the night fishing and
made a very fair catch of trout. It
: Was thought likely that night fish-
lag will be added to his regular
' "- routine.
Although Mr. Coolidge has no.
- tared and traveled a fair amount
tn the neighborhood of Cedar Is
land Lodge he had never had oc-
v.-; easion to visit the Minnesota city.
Special arrangements are being
made to have the whole city turn
out for the Chief Executive and
give him a record reception.
; . - President Coolidge will tjs driv
en through the principal streets
:u ofDuluth and centers of interest
" will be pointed out to him. His
. ' present schedule does not call for
any stops or speeches. The pria
. ; cpal feature of theday will be a
j : drtve. along the boulevard . which
akirts the top of the rocky hills
on whose steep" tides Duluth is
built, and from which a unique
view of the city and of Lake Su
i perior is obtained.

DUBLIN. N. H.. Aug. 20 (AP)
George B. Harvey, publicist,
diplomat and maker of presidents,
died suddenlytoday at his sum
mer home here of a heart attack.
A month ago he had sought re
lief from an attack of asthma in
the. high altitudes of New Hamp
shire and until today It bad ap
peared that he was recovering bis
health. He was 64 years old.
Col. Harvey came here July 24
from Elmheurst, L. I., to spend
the remainder of the summer at
Smallcross on PumpeHy Hill, an
estate which he had leased for a
summer home. In spite of bis phy
sical condition he maintained close
touch with the progress ot the re
publican presidential campaign
and frequent conferences were
held at Smallcross by eastern
leaders. William M. Butler, for
mer senator -from Massachusetts,
and former chairman of the epub
lican national committee and Sen
ator George "H. Moses of New
Hampshire were among his guests
here.
Last Thursday he suffered a
recurrence of asthma but the dis
comfort passed and members of
his household believed he was returning-
to normal health until to
day when a heart attack caused hia
death wit'n a few seconds.
Plans tTr the funeral had not
been completed tonight, but it was
announced he would be buried at
Peacham, VL, his Jbirthplace.

4 To J Sunday Jn
, ; Exciting. Game ;
" Strictly In accordance -with" pre
dictions. ; the Salem - Senators de
feated the Bend Eagles here 4 to
1 Sunday,. . spoiling : the r,Bend
team's prospective clean sweep of
the second half of the season, but
the manner thereof varied widely
from those same predictions.
"Chinky" Coovert, . Bend pitch
er, performed more capably than
he did against the Senators at
home the week before, but John
ny Beck - was in the beat xorm
that he baa displayed all season.
He held the visitors to lour, scat
tered hits, meanwhile retiring
eleven batsmen on strikes, and
was accorded perfect support.
The visitors got their one run
in the third. inning when Tram
mer walked, was sacrificed to sec
ond and scored on Hepting's two
bagger. '-. ; "-'T ...
Salmans Oa Job
The SalllvanSwthers, Billy and
Joe, had a band in all of Salem's
scoring. . In. the first inning Quinn
walked, 'Joe sacrificed him along,
Ridings walked, an then Billy's
big bat registered a two bagger,
scoring Quinn. Ridings reached
third on that play and scored
when Keber laid down a nice
bunt. I
In the fifth Joe Sullivan wa'
ea, reached second on wood s e.
ror, was sacrificed to third by
Ridings, and scored on Billy's sin
gle. And in the seventh Joe
reached second when Heptrag
threw wild to first base, was sac
rificed along, again by Ridings,
and dented the plate on a squeeze
play with his brother.
Four Hits Jn Game
Billy's bunt was chalked up as
his fourth hit in as many trips to
he plate; for Wood, diagnceing
the play, came in fast and the ball
twisted off his glove about ten
feet from the plate.
Except in the second inning
when Burdge and Allen singled
in succession -and in the third
when they got their lone tally, the
visitors didn't get a man on sec
ond 'base. Beck fanned three in a
jrow in the fourth inning.

Styles Very Diffcreat
The Bates-Mcdanathaa match
was a contest between two' radical
ly different styles of . play Dr.
Bates using a consistent-driving
attack ' against the Bend man's
steady lobbing defense. The sec
ond set particu'arly was a gruel
ing test of endurance. :
Hard, well placed drives were
used by both Ballantyne and Hage
mann in their match, with little
difference in effectiveness on
eithjer side. Other results were:
Singles
Jack Glaser of Bend defeated
