The annual mid-winter women's golf tournament opened at
the Los Angeles golf club yesterday, and we motored over to
look in on the qualifying round. . It was our first experience
with a women's tournament, but we trust it won't be our last.
Here is a big-time golf tournament after our own heart, and

Our only regret was we hadn't donned a blonde wig, put
on a divided skirt, and chiselled
it or not, as far as golf is oonoerned, no one would have sub

the 18th, "wasn't so hot, but was enough to qualify." ';
We wonder for what 1 ; . . .
Tea, we had a swell time. There was something so "in time"
about the whole thing from first to last we felt so at home.
And it all confirmed our oft-repeated assertion, that to see golf
at its BEST, one must see it at its WORST, '.
That is to say, those who only see, or only are, good golfers,
don't realize the inexhaustible resouroes, the various and ex
tended richness of the game. For real exoitement, intensity
and enthusiasm, nothing oan compare with a contest among
real, simon pure, duffers. True there is exoitement, intensity
and enthusiasm in a contest of par shooters, but solely in the
gallery. The players don't get excited, they are not intense,
they never give way to outbursts of enthusiasm. If they did
they wouldn't be par shooters.
and how. They get a klok, one way or another, from the first
tee to the last)
For example: We are not going to mention any names of
course, but the young lady in brown in fact a perfect sym
phony in brown was jhort on her tee shot on the 17th hole
just a good drive for the present writer 140 yards. Her pitch
shot hit the top of the bunker, caromed to the left, struck a
narrow patch of concrete walk, hopped onto the green and
stopped within five feet of the hole. Tou should have seen her
hop up and down with joy I She took great pains with her putt,
knelt down, patted the turf ahead of the ball, removed one or
two invisible objects, while her stanee and stroke made a perfeot
slow-motion pioture. And plop, into the cup the ball dropped
for a par 3. When she and her partner a very good looking
girl in yellow and white had stopped hopping, the girl in
brown put her arm around the ahoulder of her companion and
gurgled in her right ear:
"D'ye know, when I sink one like that, I jes' feel as if
GOD'S ARM WAS AROUND ME I
That was the way all around except of course when we
joined the Hollins, Van Wie galleries. And speaking as a
charter member of the Medford 100 club, that is the way golf
should be, full of emotion, highs and lows, bumps and bursts,
smiles and tears. These out and dried par shooters blah and
also bah, no more kick to them, than to a turbine engine
operating under glass in a Broadway ahow window.
Speaking of the good looking girl in white here is another
thing about, women's golf tournaments.
Assuming this Los Angeles performance is typical, feminine
golf skill is in inverse proportion to pulchritude. . The prettier
the girl is the worse she plays golf and visa versa. We haven't
forgotten the woman in dove colored pants, but she is only
the exception that proves the rule.
Taken by and large, if one wanted to see good golf yester
day, all that one had to do was pick out those least likely
to qualify as bathing beauties. The prettiest girl we observed
and during the day we think we saw all of them, snapped a
beautiful drive from the first tea over the bunker and well down
the fair way Mr Goluwyn should have seen her smile and
then proceeded to sm.other four in a row before she finally
reached the green. Three putts mads an eight and oan you
blame heir she CRIED.
If you think that stretching a point, then you never have
seen the qualifying round of a woman's golf tournament. There
are probably no tears in the finals or the semi or quarter
finals for that matter, good golfers don't cry. But in the
first part-of the tourney there were more wet hankies yester
day thaiTBt the first matinee of Cavalcade. Please understaud.

time you'll be so busy battling what
ever you've got that you'U quite for
get to tesk the near-doctor with his
error.
Without admitting, that nobody
knows what the alleged "common
cold" Is, we have sent out several ex
peditions In recent years In quest ot
the nature and cause of the putative
malady. One such Intensive research
has Included observation of a group
of chimpanzees. .
Recently a laboratory worker, try
ing to take cultures from the throats
ot the chimpanzees encountered one
snlmal that did not submit gracefully
to the taking of the culture. The
laboratory worker had to open the
ape's mouth forolbly. As a rule work
ers taking the cultures first carefully
scrub their hands and then don a
gauze mask, to guard against con
tamination by their own noee or
throst bacterial flora. But this time
the worker's mask was not In place
when the culture was obtained. How
ever aU the chimpanzees and aU' the
workers or attendants were in good
health and had been free from any
signs of crl. If you know what I
mean; If you don't, call It colds, you

The day after the little argument
between ape and worker, the worker
complained ot sneezing, lacrlmatlon,
fullness In noee and throat and the
second day she was suffering from
what the putative medical authorities
pronounced a typical severe common
cold, which lasted two weeks.
Oh, well. I was not there. Baron, so
let It go.
But now the plot thickens. It ap
pears that two days after the set-to

docile chimpanzee In the group show

and soras fever and passed through
what these same medical authorltlea
designated aa the typical stages or

apes In the group.

Who Ii the Head of a Family?
A taxpayer, though single, who
support and maintains in one house
hold one or more Individuals who
are closely connected with ,hlm by
blood relationship, relationship by
marriage, or by adoption, and whose
right to exercise family control and
provide lor meao aepenaent indi
viduals Is based upon some moral or
lefral obligation, 1 the head of a
family, and entitled to the same ex
emption, allowed a married person
3500. Also he may claim a 9400
credit for each dependent. For ex
ample, a widower who support la
one household an aged mother and
a daughter 17 years old la entitled
to an exemption of $3,800 as the
head of a family, plus a credit of
$400 for each dependent, a total of
$3,300. The $400 credit, however.
does not apply to the wife or the
husband of a taxpayer, though one
may be totally dependent upon the
other.
Several factors are Involved In de
termining whether a person who files
a return aa the head of a family Is
to be thus classified. The element of
either legal or financial dependency
must exist. A taxpayer who support

ground the intractable ape was In
fected by the laboratory worker who
took the culture unmasked. That
seems plausable enough, for we know
that some of the specific respiratory
infections, such as measles, scarlet
fever, cerebro-eplnal meningitis, are
contagious or communicable before
the onset of actual Illness or definite
symptoms. But how to account for
the docile ape's crl? The docile one
submitted to the taking of the weekly
culture without any fuss, and the
laboratory worker'e mask was In place
when she took the culture. Bo the
savants calmly Ignore the fact that
the Intractable ape may have passed
a sample of the Infection to the
docile one. They hold rather that
the gauze mask over nose and mouth
Is not a complete protection against
tha common cold.
Well, It Is all pretty muddled, how
ever you look at It.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
So-o-o-oh.
Please tell me whst drug store sells
the five per cent tincture of Iodine
you recommend. I have, tried about
a dozen and they all ask at least 30
cents for an ounce vial. Mrs. I. L. D.
Answer I have never given any In
formation about the price of tincture
of lodln. Perhaps you saw something
about a five per cent tincture of
lodln. At present the drug stores fur
nish a weaker tincture (3 per cent)
or a stronger tincture (7 per cent)
when you buy tincture of lodln. More
economical to buy the stronger tinc
ture (7 per cent) In a one ounce glass
stoppered or hard rubber screw cap
ped vial. For general use this may
be mixed half and half with glycerin,
and It will still be stronger than
the 6 per cent tincture.
We Can Only Gas.
I am 40, have never been alck, spend
most of my time outdoors winter and
summer. This winter I have been
playing cards once a week with three
other men. To save 4ieat we play In
the kitchen. All of us smoke. All
the doors and windows are closed.
Several times I have become feint
and white around the gills after an
hour and a half, so I had to stop and
go out In the air to get over It. None
of the other men are oifected . . .

Answer Perhaps tobacco poisoning

Answer No. I often wonder why
the popular delusion persists that

vided the Individual Is financially
dependent. If the Individual Is not
financially dependent, the exemption,
even though the taxpayer maintains
the common home and furnishes the
chief support, does not apply.
For Income tax purposes there can
be only one head of a family and
the exemption can not be divided.
Not Infrequently claims for the $3,
000 exemption are received from two
or more member of a family.
It should be remembered that a
single person, whether or not the
head of a family, is required to file
a return If hla or her net Income
for 1933 was $1,000 or more, regard
leas of whether the return Is non
taxable by reason of the $3,500 ex

Kentucky-born 54 years ago in a
