"Anybody that says I'm for prohibi tion is all wet," asserted the gang czar. "It would be better If prohibi tion was out of the war and w could handle beer legitimately. There would be more profit, no payoffs, no loss of trucks and a cheaper price for the stuff." Transfer Rushed Cspone's trip to prison wss a rush affair, starting only day after the United Ststes supreme court had refused to review his case. The orig inal papera called for Incarceration at Leavenworth, Kana., but the plans were changed late yesterday In ac cordance with the government's pol icy of splitting up the Capon gang. Four Chicago gangsters are already in Leavenworth prison while Capone Is the first to be sent to Atlanta. The gang chief learned of the switch to Atlanta over the radio In his cell at the county Jail, where he waited for six months while his case was appealed. He Indicated It made no difference to him In which prison he served his term. Al Well Guarded On the trip from the county Jail to the train at Chicago the party was aeoompanled by four other automo biles filled with dry agents and Chi cago police. The police were armed and ready to prevent any disorder. There were crowds outside the Jail and some of the curious shouted; "You got a bum break, Al." "You'd think Mussolini was passing through," remarked Capone. On the Journey to the train Capone caught a glimpse of the federal build ing, scene of his greatest defeat the place where Federal Judge James H. Wtlkeraon passed the 11 year sentence last October, after Capone was con victed following withdrawal of a plea of guilty, Retains Vanity Just before leaving the marshal's automobile at the atatlon Capone's vanity asserted Itself again. Noticing a small crowd gathered to see him off, he asked Marshal Laubenhelmer to fix hla hands so no handcuffs would show. His sleeve was pulled down, and the cuffs to which he was fastened to his fellow prisoner were not visible as the two prisoners were taken aboard the Pullman. Capone made nil hla plans tor his farewell early during the day. His mother. Mrs. Teresa Capone, hla wife, Mae, hla son, Alphonse, Jr., 13; his sister, Mrs. Msls'da Marltote and a younger brother, Mathew, bade him goodbye In his cell. He was allowed to take but 810 with him, and a limited supply of clothing. Hampering baggage la not permitted for federal prisoners. Rlrrpa In Irons Cspone spent the night In the upper berth of a drawing room shack led hand and foot to the other pris oner, Vlto Morlcl, a young Chlcagoan who la being taken to Jacksonville, Fla., to stand trial on charges of transporting a stolen automobile from Tampa, Fla., to Chicago. The gang chief objected to the leg Irons which were clamped onto him as he prepared for bed. He said he, would rather sit up all night than have "those things on my legs." But Marshal Laubenhelmer aald, "I'm sorry, good night," and turned out the light, WINS FOR DUCKS (By the Associated Press) The baseball series of the north Pacific coast, featuring Seattle's In dians and the Portland Ducks, was swinging In favor of the Oregon team today.

KEELER Dr Allstalr MacKenzle, still deeply engrossed with the great course he hss deslgnned and Is building for the Augusta National Oolf club, Au gusta, Oa In his lighter momenta win narrate remarkable stories of prowess. One of his best desls with Judge W. O. Henderson, a distinguished Jurist who spends much of the win ter In Augusta and plays golf, which, as Dr. McKenzle points out. Is amaz ing and may indeed lead him to one of the oddest records In golf, and yet unattalned. Judge Henderson, to whom I was duly Introduced during a visit to Augusta, Is 83 years of age. "He has twice played the Hill course st the Augusta Country club In 85. this season," declared Dr. Mac kenzie. Par for the Hill course 1 a stiff 73. and the course record Is 69. It Is regarded ss one of the best layouts In America. Judge Henderson Is close to the oddest of records on that tough test - for a golfer to "shoot his sge." a stroke for a year, on a standard golf course. Other Candidates Out In southern California a year ago they were telling me of some ohap who hsd done a 87 at the age of 64; It seems he also has a chance. "I've one closer than that," Dr. Mackenzie said. "When I was In Australia some years ago there was a chap named Rose, of the Royal Melbourne, a very stiff layout. He was then 71 years of age and had done a 73 once and a 73 twice, over this course. It's quite possible he's shot his age by this time, though I do not know It. He seemed to be getting better, and could .play 86 holes in a day vsry handily, with a lot of bridge In the evening." The trick In this proposed record, of course. Is that no man possibly hss the ghost of a show to set It un til he has paaeed 60. Scores we have beard of .like Braid's 88 and Dun can's 86, were made on short courses at least Oeorge's was. But the com' pliers were a score of years short of the cards, at that. L'p the Scale The most apectacular tale Dr. Mac kenzie permitted himself, on the oc casion of this last visit, waa of three-day battle at the excellent Doc tors' own pet course, Cypress Point, on the Monterey peninsula. It seems Tommy Armour, Joe Klrk wood, Jack Neville and Roger Lap- ham played a series of matches there, the pros giving the amateurs a lib eral allotment of strokes. On the last day. Armour was excessively hot: he wss giving Mr. Lapham a stroke a hole, and beat the famous sportsman by ooralng home In 31. "On the short 18th," said Dr. Mac. kenzle, "the miracle occurred. It Is a pitch of about 130 yards. Mr. Lap ham's son was playing In the group, which thus was a flvesome. The scores at the 16th were as follows: Armour 1, Klrkwood 3, Neville 3, Roger Lapham 4 and hts son 6. It do not recall ever having heard of any such set of scores being made anywhere else, on a single hole by the same match." Neither do I.
