The Present is Exciting With Clayt at War
But the present is equally as facinating. There is the ever
amazing Clayton Heafner, to whom something always is happening.
The guy must have been born on the Fourth of July. Whenever he,
does win a national championship, he will be a colorful slam-bam
champion, news copy for the scribes every time he makes a mqve.
Yesterday, at Oakland, he shot a hole in one.
Everything else in the books apparently had happened to the
ex-candy kid. The big, hulking fellow who has little to say except
when provoked, being content to let his tools of war write the color
stories for him, is always flashing forth with something on .an un
suspecting public to make it gasp.
Such little items as a 60 at Myers Park last summer, one
regional course record after another, a 66 in his first National Open
foray, a new course record at Los Angeles last week, have become
part and parcel of his tempestuous career. And then comes the ’hole
in-one. You’ve given us everything to cheer about, Clayton, except
a big rousing victory in a top event. Let’s have that. A guy with
"your astounding equipment is capable of just about anything. Are
you listening?

From a Washington column;
For several years, Mrs. Cordell Hull has been looking forward
to the end of her husband’s service as secretary of state, so that he*
might enjoy the autumn of-his life and make it long. The thought
of his undertaking a presidential campaign at 69, and then a
possible four years in the White House, is more than she can bear.
Having no children to rear and no house to tend, Mrs. Hull
devotes herself to caring for her distinguished husband. She fre
quently appears at the state department at noon and sends word by
the chauffeur that she is waiting to take the secretary home to
lunch. She objects strenuously to his lunching from a tray on the
corner of his desk.
Hull’s Florida and Pinehurst and Augusta holidays probably
never would take place but for Mrs. Hull. She persuades him to go,
then makes all the arrangements.
Two years ago, when there was discussion of Hull getting the
Nobel peace prize, Mrs. Hull urged her husband to resign, if and
when he received the prize, and let it mark the culmination of his
c&rG6r«
If the greater prize of the presidency were to come within
Hull’s grasp, perhaps Mrs. Hull would abandon all caution for the
great political lottery. But at present she, personally, is looking
forward to January, 1941, as the time for taking her husband off to
the- comfortable havens of retirement. .

an interviewer. 0. B. closed his remarks by asking George if they

Czechoslovakia will * emerge
from the present European con
fict to retain its boundaries as a
nation, again to become the home
land of a united people under its
former flag and solidarity. This
was declared yesterday by Vla
dimir Hurban, Czchoslovakian
minister to the United States,
who is now in Pinehurst, recuper
ating from a recent illness, as a
guest at the Carolina.
The foreign diplomat has dis
tinguished himself in many ways
in his service as a Czchoslovakian
minister. Before his American
post, he was minister to Norway
and Sweden, which appointment
he held for six years, and before
that was Czechoslovakian envoy
to Egypt. His name was head
lined in papers all over the world
in Marph, 1939, as many may re
call. It was at that time that Mr.
Hurban refused to bow to -the
pressure of Hitlerism in Washing
ton, when the_ Nazi, government*
after its putsch into Czchoslova-|
kia, attempted to move into the
U. S. embassy to replace Mr.
Hurban and other legation of
ficials of the European republic.!
The State Department of Ameri
ca backed up Hurban’s stand and
he is still the recognized minister
to this country by this official de
cision.
In Mr. Hurban’s opinion, which
is the result o| thorough knowl
edge of the . European crisis
through his experience with the
many peoples of the continent,
Hitlerism is bound to fall and the
. *
Allies to succeed in their war on
totalitarianism.
“Such wanton lawnessness and
continued oppression of the Ger
man and other peoples cannot
endure,” he said.
The so-called German-Russian
alliance cannot last for any length
of time, Hurban said. It has
been common knowledge within

PROTEST TO MOSCOW
Almost simultaneous protests
from Sweden and Norway
charging ' that Soviet Russian
warplanes had violated their neu
trality last night increased the
growing tension between Russia
and the Scandinavian states. Both
Sweden and Norway instructed
their ministers in Moscow to pro
test the alleged violations. These
developments followed quickly
Russian charges that Norway and
Sweden were acting in an unneu
tral way by aiding their neighbor,
Finland, in her struggle with Rus
sia. The Swedish protest was
based on the reported bombing
of the Swedish island of Kallaks,
by nine Soviet planes yesterday.
