Is reported to have built htm a for
tune. "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,

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.
