PLAN ON FOOT TO ORGANIZE
NATIONAL GOLF ASSOCIATION
x
Chicago, May 28. Plans for the or
ganization of a National Golf Associa
tion with plenary powers over all golf
ers in the United States and equal rep
resentation of all state and regional
associations were announced tonight
by Horace F. Smith, of Nashville, Tenn.,
a director and former president of the
Western Golf.. 'Association through
Crafts W. Higgins, of Chicago, assist
ant secretary of the Western Associa
tion. The movement was started because
of the refusal of the Massachusetts
and other associations to obtain the
rule of the United Golf Association,
making Francis Ouimet and many
other golfers professionals because
they dealt in golf goods.
Up to the present all golfers in
America, Mr. Smith said, had submit
ted willingly or protestingly to the
rules fprmulated by the United States
Golf Association which was organized
when golf was largely confined to the
northeastern quarter of the country,
and has since taken in no active mem
bers although golf clubs had sprung
up in every city of any size. Mr. Smith
said that the records for 1915 showed
that only 90 golf clubs were active
members of the United States Golf
Association or only about eight per
cent, of the total number of clubs in
America.

Mrs. N. J. Jordan made the following
interesting statement a few days ago:
"I have spent five hundred dollars
for medicines and, treatments for indi
genstion, which failed to relieve me,
but Tanlac has made me feel like a new
woman.
"I had the worst kind of indigestion
for five years; was nervous and had to
take medicines to make me sleep. I
was troubled with heart pains and was
compelled to eat light foods. I could
not eat meats of any kind. When I
read the statements from reliable peo
ple, I decided to try Tanlac.
"I have finished four bottles of it,
and can eat anything I want. Color
has restored itself in my cheeks. It
certainly is a pleasure to be able to
eat meat, potatoes, pie, and such good
foods and to be in position to go about
and enjoy housework. My sleep is just
fine, too. Also, I have gained five
pounds."
Mrs. Jordan is the wife of a well
known Raleigh manufacturer, and lives
at 122 West Davie street, that city.

They Have an Unbroken String of
Sixteen Victories.
Eastern Clubs Virtually Monopolise
First Positions in Both Leagues
Summary of the Playing
During the Week.
New York, May 28. The interest of
the baseball world was focused in the
week just closed on the remarkaNe
record of the New York Nationals. The
rejuvenated Giants, who were able to
win only two out of first 15 games
this season, now have an unbroken
string of 16 victories and have moved
from last position to second place
where they are within two games of
Brooklyn leaders.
The straight wins took the follow
ers of the game completely bj surprise
because oi the abrupt reversal of form
and the consistent good playing in alJ
departments.
The aggressiveness developed by the
Giants lead -jfnahy of their followers
to hope they will not stop until they
have equalled or surpassed the world's
records of 20 straight games won,
mad by the old Providence team in 1884
or the modern record of 14 straigJI
games made by the Chicago Americans,
the famous "hitless wonders" of 1966
The Eastern- clubs by virtue of the
success of their western invasion, vir
tually monopolize the first positions in
both leagues. The only exception is
the Cleveland Americans. The first in
vasion of the west which ended Wed
nesday resulted in the eastern clubs of
the National league winning 35 games
and losing 19, while the Eastern teams
of the younger organization won 28
and lost 19.
Brooklyn lost the lead in the Na
tional League during the week to Phil
adelphia but holds it today as a result
of its double victory over the Phillies
Saturday. The three leading teams are
so close together that any day may
bring changes. The Boston Braves
were unable to split even on their west
ern trip and fell back into fourth posi
tion by losing three straights to the
Giants.
The four Western clubs fared badly
during the week and were unable to
better their positions appreciably.
In the American League the feature
of the week was the fight between
Washington and Cleveland for first
place.
The Senators went Into the lead early
in the week, only to be dislodged by
the Indians, but they go.t back into the
coveted position yesterday by winning
a doubelheader from Philadelphia while
Cleveland was idle. Cleveland's double
defeat today by Chicago strengthened
Washington's hold on first place. '
Cleveland was unable to do better
than split even during the week, win
ning two games and losing, two. Wash
ington won five, lost one and tied one.
Good pitching and strong offense has
helped Washington while Cleveland's
good showing may be attributed in no
small way to the Individual playing of
Tris Speaker and John Graney.
The form displayed b the New York
Americans was another of the featur3
of the week. The Yankees have won
five straight games chiefly through the
hitting of Leslie Nunamaker, who leads
the American League batters "Paddy1

The world champion Boston Ameri
cans took three straight games front
Detroit last week, but then lost three
straight in their series with New York.
Largely because of poor pitching and
the. failure of Cobb and some' of the
others to strike their stride the De
troit Tigers continued to lose during
the week, winning only one game and
dropping into sixth position. Chicago
played,, only three games, . winning one
and losing one. and playing a tie with
Washington Thursday. '.Neither the
Athletics nor: St. Louis made any prog
ress, each losing threfc games and win
ning two. ..

CERVANTES AND BEAUCOME
BURIED WITHOUT CEREMONY
Field Headquarters, near Namiquipa.
Mexico, via wireless to Columbus, N. M.,
May 28. Candelaria Cervantes and
Juan Beaucome were buried today with
out religious ceremony. There were no
flowered carts, no words spoken over
the graves of the two bandits who had
caused the expeditionary command al
most as much trouble as has Villa him
self. Even the village padre at Nami
quipa, where Cervantes had grown to
manhood, declined to officiate at the
services.
Two dusjty two-wheeled carts, drawn
by dustier mules, bore the coffins
through the puddled adobe huts of the
town to a little cemetery on the out
skirts. A few Mexicans, wrapped in
dirty blankets, one of them Cervantes'
father, a toothless old woman, and a
few dogs, comprised the funeral party.
The,quiet burial was ordered by the
civil authorities of Namiquipa, the ma
jority of the citizens having insisted
that the body of Cervantes, brought
here after he was killed in an attack
upon an American army engineering
party last Thursday, be gotten out of
the town.
