Uses Indian Death Lock In the days when Indians ronmeU the west It was the practice among some tribes to visit, at times, a terrioie death upon captives, i.ennmt their victim to a small tree the redskins would place his legs about the trunk In such a manner that he could not extricate hlmselr by his own efforts. There the captive would be left to die by hunger and thirst or be come the prey of wild animals, The practice, known as the "Indian Death Lock," was modified to wrestling use by Chief Little Wolf, N'avojo Indian, (above) who meets Louie Miller of Ban Francisco here on the Armory mat onrd tonight. OLD FINES BALK Applications have been filed with the district attorney's office, for -lease of Judgments and fines In con victions held by the state, in order that the applicant may secure federal funds under the provisions of the Home Owners' Loan corporation. The federal organisation will not grant the loans until the Judgments held by the state are released. The Judg ments are held for llnee and oosts tor prohibition law violations. Aooordlng to Dlatrlot Attorney George A. Codding, there are no means under Oregon law by which the Judg ments ean be released and any adju dication will take a decision by the aupreme court, or an opinion by the attorney general, The district attorney holds that the release of the Judgment would be beneficial, alike, to the county and the applicant. The loan would authorize the payment of county taxes, among the first duties and would give the applicant a new start, The government will not accept lea than a full release not for the amount of state's Judgment alone. Bo there the question Is stalemated. Felix fie Fixes Putts Seattle Feline, Naturally, Loves 'Birdies' SEATTLE, (P)- If you're having trouble dropping your putts, drop around to the Meadowbrook Oolf club In Seattle and Felix Will fix 'em. Bobby Jones, Johnny Goodman, or Lawaon Little, the new British ama teur champion, never sack putts like some of the 30 and 30 footers which are canhed In uncanny fashion at Meadowbrook. Felix knows how, and he has "saved" many a score for Seat' tie golfers. Felix Isn't the pro. No sir. He's Just an alley cat who "Joined" the club about two months ago. He took a lik ing to the game and to the vlttles handed out by the cook and decided to hang around. He doesn't go in for the long game, being content to concentrate on putts at the fourth, sixth and ninth greens which are close to the clubhouse. The cat spends hours sitting close to the oups, apparently waiting for a rat or something to Jump out. Long iron and pitch shots bounoe all around him but he doesn't blink an eye. If an approach shot comes with in a foot of the hole, however, he goes to work. He pounces on It and flops It In the cup for a "rub on the green." otherwise he sits and wait tor the putts and then helps them along much to the delight of the players. Because of Felix, probably more birdies have been scored by dubs at the ninth hole the cat's favorite spot than at any other hole In the country. 'If you don t believe us oome out end see for yourself," say any of the regular members.
