QUIET COMFORT
AS AMBASSADOR
LONDON (AP) Andrew W. Ms).
Ion, new American ambassador to
the Court of St. Junta, has settled
dowa to quiet comfort In the em
bassy home at Princes Gate, facing
the green of Hyde park.
Despite his 77 years, his health
Is good and the rigors of an tin
usually ill-tempered English spring
have not disturbed him.
With bis art collection, his son-in-law
and daughter, Mr, and Mrs.
David K. E. Bruce, Ambassador
Mellon finds the London he has
Vinown for BO years much like home.
f He was busy, but perhaps a iit
tle lonely, in the big official resi
dence until Mrs. Bruce arrived. A
staff of 18 servants was on duty
when he got here. He brought his
own valet and chef.
Simplicity and quiet dignity char
acterize the days st the embassy
home. British newspapers Insist
ed on heralding the return of lav
ish social affslrs, as in the days of
the late Whltelaw Held. Mr. Mellon
is disappointing them. Even the
serving of wine wlU be chiefly a
diplomatic ceremonial, although the
ambassador Is a clearcut "wet" on
the embassy liquor issue.
The new ambassador's recreation
has been arranging the paintings
he brought from Washington. The
wails of the large reception rooms
have been done over from white
to soft grey to make a. suitable
background. ,
Only paintings on canvas were
brought to London. Those backed
by wood panels and likely to warp
In the damp climate were left In
America.
The ballroom has been hung with
) English works, Osinsboroughs nd
komnevs; the library with Dutch
pictures. Including Mr. Mellon's
Rembrandta. His precious Spanish
Govs has a special hanging.
The ambassador spends his eve
nings mostly at home. Theaters
and concerts haven't attracted Mm
as yet. He hasn't made definite
plans for the summer, but he may
take a country place. It's one of
the things to do In England.
JAPANESE SLAY
GE1APEST
PEIPINO, China, June 23. (AP)
British nationals were advised today
to evacuate the territory around
Chientao, on the Korean border In
Klrtn province, Manchuria, following
the alleged slaying of a German
V Cathoiio missionary, Father Conrad
' Happ, by Japanese soldiers.
Missionary reports received here
said Father Happ was hurrying on
horseback to the deathbed of a col
league when he was halted at night
by a Japanese military picket.
When he produced his Identity
card, the report said, the Japanese
pulled him from the saddle, declar
ing he Insulted the Imperial Japa
nese army by failing to dismount.
The soldiers beat him until he was
unconscious, the reports ssld, then
shot him.
Photographs of the body showed
that the priest was shot through the
heart and abdomen and bayoneted in
thirty places.

Manchurians Balk
'At Planting Crops
' Under Nippon Rule
HARBIN, Manchuria (AP) Many
Manchurian peasants refused to
plant full crops this year, holding
their acreage lnstesd to minimum
food requirements.
Prior to Japanese occupstlon the
peasant could sell either to Chinese
companies or to Japanese Interests.
By playing one against the other he
could slwsys get a good price.
But , the downfall of the former
Chlnese administration eliminated
ie country's best customer for
jVheat and soya beans, and the farm
era rather resent the resulting JP

DANGER OF FEUD
AVOIDED BY MILD
WHITE SOX FINES
.CLEVELAND. (AP) Perhaps an
other famous baseball feud, such as
the Ban Johnson-Comiskey affair has
been averted.
It looked like the makings of a
first class row when four Chicago
White Box players engaged in an un-der-the-bleachers
brawl with Umpire
Ooerge Moriarty la Cleveland.
William Harridge, as president of
the league, came from Chicago to
lavestigate.
With a rule rwrmlfcHne, b-mr-
suspension to almost halt the Chi-
vosw team on cjuo nouse walls, it
wss recalled how the late Ban John
son, then league head, incurred the
lasting enmity of the late Charles
Comlskey, White Sox owner, over an
adverse ruling in awarding of a play
er. Would the new league head have
a "run In" with the new White Sox
owner, Louis Comlskey, son of the
"Old Romas"?
The elder Comlskey wss a friend of
Harridge. But so was he a friend of
Johnson until the two had their dif
ference. But It all blew over when Harridge
assessed fines unon Umnw r
Fonseca, Coach John Butler, Pitcher
Miuon uaston and Catchers Charles
Berry and Frank Qrube, with brief
suspensions to Gaston and Butler.

O.B. 1
KEELERJ
Golfing history has it that "par"
was invented on Scotland the nlgnt
nefor the British open champion
ship of 1870. i
All hand leaping systems since then,;
so far as X know, have been based on,
the discrepancy between a player's
best rounds on & course, averaged.1
and either par or "bogey" of that1
course; a- hypothetical figure not
quite as good as par; about what a
good, substantial golfer is expects
to score. 1
That is, alt systems were so based
until Mr. Max Behr a couple or three
years ago tried out another Idea at
the lakeside club near Los Angeles,
In which Bobby Jonee became inter
ested last spring. The Atlanta Golf
Association lately has recommended
It to the member clubs, most of
which now art trying St out.
The old system, based as It was
on the average of completed rounds
or proficiency at medal scoring
always has been unsatisfactory in
match competition which constitutes
the majority of play in club member
ships. It Is well known that most
golfers play the majority of a round
with a fair consistency and run their
scores up on two or three or four
holes. i
The new plan takes cognizance of,
this, just as, under the old system,
a player was allowed only a fraction
of his full margin of handicap in a1
match.
Shows Strength Match
Aa in the old system, a specified
number of "best" cards la required
of a club player but where, in the
old plan, these "best" total scores
were averaged, and the par of the
course deducted, the result being hit
handicap, in the new plan the mem
ber's pisy against par Is the factor,
or against an arbitrary "bogey.
Either method works out to the
same result mathematically.
In the par method, a player re
ceives a credit of one point for every
hole played in par, and two points
for every birdie. On a par 72 course,
for instance, if he does 12 holes in
par, with no birdies, his handicap
based on that round would be 13 de
ducted from 18, which is 6, no mat
ter If he collected a couple of 8 a and
a 7 or two in the other holes.
This handicap represent accu
rately Hie player's force In match,
If he doea all 18 holes ta par he la
& scratch competitor. If he does six
holes in par one birdte, and the oth
ers all above par, his handicap is 18
minus 8, or 10 strokes.
How Bogey Work
In the other method, suggested as
suitable for clubs with all kinds of
players, bogey is a stroke above par
on each hole. The member get one
credit for every hole dona la bogey.
two credits for a birdie (a stroke un
der bogey), and the total of credits
is deducted from 38. This works out
Just the same for the good player,
who of course turns In card with a
lot of two-point bttdiea along with
his bogey scores.
A sample card of a hypothetical
course, played by a reasonably capa
ble golfer, and showing the bogey
system, is appended:

Razor Company told you that, under tKe
stress ot introducing a new razor and blade,
uniformity had Buffered; and told you now our
efforts to correct Ae trouble had resulted in the
development of a far superior product
Several readers have asked as how we can
make the bold, positive statement that today's
Gillette blades are the sharpest, smoothest
shaving blades we have ever produced, This
is a fair question, and here is our reply? A
marvelous new testing machine, recently devel
oped, scientifically proves that these blades have
never before been approached in keenness,
We cannot discuss the nature or details of this
machine because it is
being patented. But we
can tell you that it meas
ure microscopic dimen
sions with unfailing
accuracy revealing
with mathematie exact
ness, actual degrees of
razor-blade sharpness.
So when we state that
today's Gillette blades
are the sharpest we have
ever made we are bas
ing our assertion upon
The Gillette Blue Super-Blade

fact "We know we are right and can prove it
Further than this everyone knows that a razor
blade must be able to betid without cracking
when tightened in the holder. This requires
steel of a certain temper not suitable for a keen
cutting edge. The problem is to permit Eering
and yet have a hard edge that can be ground
and stropped for proper shaving performance.
Gillette has achieved the solution of this prob
lem in the manufacture of its slotted blades.
These blades are made by a special tem
pering process that makes the edges exceptiot
ally hard, while the center, of a different temper,
fieses easily.
We urge you to try today's Gillette blades
