Bhe declared as she sailed that she would not bo dis appointed if she fulled to win, but she must have hod her fin gers crossed when she said It, for she takes" her gait very seriously. Her decision to enter the Brit ish title event was sudden. Early! Hat urdn y she had no thought of venturing so fur afield. At night-! fall she was packing. There la ; a golfing precedent in sudden de terminations to have a try at! British titles. Bobby Jones last! year almost literally at the llth hour decided to defend his open title abroud and barely made his boat. He won with a record breaking 285. Just before the George Wash ington sailed Miss Collett was as noarly excited as a person of her calm demeanor could be but not about golf. , She answored ques tions on the move as she sought trace of a missing suitcase. "No. I have not played . the Hunstanton," she said, as shoj asked a steward if the miaslnt? j bag had appeared. "I hear It's WIJT "HIM. I"-'! IHIUUIMlllWII "( undoubtedly correct. The amateur j record for the course at Nor folk, England, Is 75 and no pro-' fesflonal has- ever done better than 74. j. "No, I'm not planning to piny; In the championship with the new clubs " as she was asked about a comptete set of shiny new woods and Irons with her baggage. "In the play at Huns tanton from May 14 to 19. If I lust that long, I'll Btlck to the- good old standbys. "I am hopeful, of course, ofi giving a good account of myself."! she continued, "and I am pleased ; with my gnmo, an ft has respond ed during the last few months! In the south. I hit a ball fairly J well on necatdnn." j She did not mention It but' tone of the occasions was In the ! qualifying round of the Florida' east championship at Kt. Augus-I tine, where sho scored a sensa-: ttonul 74, before going on to win the tit lo four days later. No American woman golfer bus let tered that figure. Miss Collett. In speaking of her former expeditions In search of n British title, said she had not done well. This statement would seem to leave room for argil-; ment. In 1925 at Troon sho was defeated Iry Joyce Wethorod.) tho greatest woman golfer any j country has produced four up and three to play. j Glenna went to Versailles tho snmo year to win the French championship from Mile Thlon de IiK'haiime. three up and one to play at 3R holes.

His ono time manager. Jack Kearns, went down for the count In the federal tits trlct court, losing a suit for $701,- 000. And larft night, after allowing a Jury to find only on two ques tions of fart, Judge John C. Knox delivered the final blow to Kearns claims by directing a verdict for Dempsey nfter four dnys of In (creating testimony to fistic rait birds.
