Childers Wins President's Gup in Rogue Valley Golf Tournament
PXGE TWO
NEATAPPROACHING
AND FINE PUTTING
DEFEAT HAMMOND
Theater Man Grabs Lead
After Mediocre Start In
Local Classic Contest
Ends 5 Up And 4- To Go.
As In nearly ever? other iport, toil
la In golf an occasional player who
tan go throuRh the finale of a tour,
namsnt without a touch of the "Jlt
tera," even after a few tough breaks,
and euch a golfer Gene Childers
turned out to be when he defeated
Bob Hammond. Sr.. Sunday at the
Rogue Valley course In the afl-hole
flnala of the President's cup tourna
ment. Chlldera teed off yeaterday morning
with a naaty allce that put the ball
In the bunker on No. 18, In audi a
bad He that It took hie five more
to hole out No. 1, but after lagging
' one or two down through the first
nine, he went Into a stride that held
him In the lead throughout moat of
the day. and he won the contest five
up and four to go.
It waa hla neat approach work that
won the match, as hla drlrer refused
. to function properly. Cool a a cu
cumber, however, Chlldera recovered
persistently on hla aecond allots and
did aomo beautiful putting.
Hammond Driving Well.
The defeat waa no diagraoa to Ham
mond, whose handicap allowed Chll
dera five atrokea on each 18, a big
gift In any tournamnet. On the first
18, both playera carded an 87. The
telephone chief played hla usual con
alatent game from the tee. but waa
badly off on hla ahort game, which
la normally hla strong suit. His
drives were Invarlsbly truer If not
longer than hla opponents.
One down at the turn. In the morn
ing round, Chlldera climbed to one
up on No. It, and having found his
stride by this time, got hot aa a blow
torch and took Nos. 17 and 18. to
put himself three up at the end of the
first 18. They literally raced around
the courae, covering the first 18 in
an hour and 49 minutes, which It
believed to be a courae record.
In the afternon rounds, childers
again dropped No. 1. and things were
looking bad for him on No. 3. with
a bad lie after hla tee shot. He re
covered nicely, however, and came
through with one of hla uncanny
Walter tlagen approaches of a good
to yards that gave him the hole with
a birdie three.
Wind In Afternoon.
Ramniond held the theater owner
even for the rest of the nine, but
wss still three down at ths turn, and
Chlldera won the 11th and 13th, put
ting nun dormle . and halved the
14th. which tare htm the match, 5
and 4. Bach ahot a 43 on the first
nine of the afternoon round. A wind
had com up ahortly after noon that
hampered both playera, but other
wise the day waa perfect golf weather.
The Tlotorjr gave Chlldera permanent
poeseaslon of the besutlful Preal
dent's trophy.
Bob Kelly and Carol Hayes hit the
blind bogey on the nose In the Quest

Wade la rated among the top

Fana remember Jaggat Singh as

URGEDJY JUDGE
Broad Extension of Principal
of Probation and More
Informal Hearings Idea
of New Jersey Jurist
NEWARK, S. J. (UP) Proposals
for a complete change In the admin
istration of criminal law in the
United States, putting all the courts
on a basis exactly like that of the
present Juvenile courts, will be urged I
on the next conference of governors I
by Judge Joseph Siegeler of New I
Jersey. j
Judge Slegler's recommendations
are based upon a personal contact !
with 11.000 juvenile cases and 18.
000 domestic relations cases. He j
wants a broad extension of the prln- I
clple of probation, and initial hear- 1
ings of all criminal cases In a far ;
more Informal and scientific WBy j
than at present. ' I
The Plan
"This plan." he said, "represents
the greatest advance tn criminal
Jurisprudence In 600 years. As far
as the courts are concerned we still
are In the Middle Ages In our meth
ods of dealing with crime. If we
continue our present system we shall
Just go on building more and more
Jails and prisons, at enormous ex
pense, and filling them with pris
oners who merely are students In
crime, going there for post-graduate
courses.
"The success of probation in deal
ing with offenders up to 16 leads
to the conclusion that the same
methods could be extended first to
offenders up to 21. and later to all
ages. The number of persons com
mitted to prison would decrease by
a large percentage.
New Age Limit
"I am suggesting the Immediate
application of this plan to offend
ers up to 31 years. At present the
Juvenile court procedure in most
states deals with delinquents only
up to 16. A boy who commits an
offense Just after his 16th birthday
Is publicly arraigned and humiliat
ed, and his name becomes public
property, Just as that of a crim
inal. As a result, his readjustment
to lawful society becomes almost
Impossible. He Is shoved straight
Into the criminal class, and recla
mation Is automatically blocked.
My experience on the bench shows
me that 90 per cent of these of
fenders could be restored to useful
citizenship under a more humane
and scientific procedure."

Subterranean Labyrinth In
France Yields Evidence
of Prehistoric Man Dis
cover Ancient Hearth
By Waterier Lewis Root
United Press Staff Correspondent.
TOULOUSE, Prance (UP) De
scending into an immense subter
ranean labyrinth at Mas de Jouan
Trlpodel. at Saillat. Department ot
Lot, explorers discovered Implement
left there no one knows how many
centuries ago by stone age man.
With them were broken pieces of
pottery.
The importance of this discovery
to students of prehistoric man rests
In the fact that thus far there haa
been no evidence that the men ot
the stone age knew how to make
pottery. If it Is established that the
fragments of earthenware vessels dat .
from the same period aa tne stone
tools, one more fragment will have
been added to the mosaic which sa
vants are patiently constructing to
give us the picture of stone age life.
Stone Ax.
Among the finds were a massive
stone ax. almond-shaped, capable of
being used also as a hammer, pick,
saw or weapon. Scrapers of extremely
hard rock, the product of probably
breaking up a large stnne and keep
ing whatever fragments turned out
to be of useful shape also were
found. It has not yet been possible
to say whether any further shaping
was done after the pieces of stone
were broken from the rock. With a
sharp edge at one side, the scrapers
widened at the other, and could be
held there, without a handle. They
were probably employed for remov
ing the bark from tree, trunks, and
skinning animals or cleaning the
skins. Some of them were pointed,
and probably were used for piercing
wood and skins.
Flint Knife.
Near an ancient hearth the ex
plorers found a flint knife wltn
sharp cutting edges.
Most Interesting, however, was the
pottery, of which a large quantity
of fragments was found. By assem
bling the fragments, it was demon
strated that many of the vases were
exceedingly large. Examination showed
that the composition of the clay
was not always the same, and the
thickness of the vessels also varied
greatly.
