Monday morning, March 18, will find four former champions ready to tee off in the Twelfth Annual Women’s Mid-South 54 hole Mecjpl Golf Championship at the Southern Pines Country Club, in addition to a large field of other potential contenders. Estelle Lawson Page, 1937 na tional champion who captured the Mid-South title the same year, Deborah Verry of Worces ter, Mass., a champion of that state and titlist in this tournar ment in 1936, and Helen War ing of Pinehurst, 1934 champion, will be on hand to present strong opposition to Patty Berg, former national champion and defending Mid-South title holder. The Bloomington, 111., young ster, Jeanne Cline, with a U. S. G. A. handicap of 6, will be a newcomer in this event and from her record during the past year is expected to startle many of the veterans who have been touring the Florida circuit. Following the finals on Wed nesday, the Thistle Club will be hosts at a large tea at which time the trophies will be pre sented. STATE FINANCIAL STANDING FURNISHES REASON FOR PRIDE Both native North Caro linians -and her adopted sons can be justly proud of the Old North State in many ways, and not the least of these .in its state government, and more par ticularly from a financial stand point. The administration of the North Carolina state treas ury is undoubtedly one of the most efficient in the entire na tion. A balanced budget, tjie dream of every administration is not just a dream in North Caro lina. The state has reduced its bonded indebtedness (outstand ing indebtedness less sinking fund) since 1932 from $174, 196,423 to $139,398,128. The to tal local bonded indebtedness has been reduced from $361, 500,000 to $31^,000,000. A to tal reduction of almost one fifth in eight years*. , ' Certait^ly from a governmen tal standpoint no one could ask much more than is offered by the Old North State. FAVORITES ousted IN AMATEUR-PRO GOLF AT ST. AUGUSTINE ' ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 14.—(jp)—The team of Clyde Usina Jr. and Walter Berkamo provided chief fireworks in the opening round today of the Na tional Amateur - Professional match play bestball champion ship over the St. Augustine links.

SWEARINGEN’S DEATH IN CROSSING CRASH HELD ACCIDENT A -verdict of “unavoidable ac cident” was rendered by a cor onor’s jury late Wednesday night at an inquest held by Coroner R. G. Fry Jr. of Carthage, into the recent death of Mrs. Cath* erine Adams Swearingen. Mrs. Swearingen, an employee of the Southern Pines Laundry, died in Moore County Hospital February 7 as a result of a fractured skull she suffered when an automobile in which she was a passenger was hit by a south bound Seaboard Air line train on the crossing at Connecticut Avenue and West Broad Street, Southern Pines. The jurymen impaneled by Coronor Fry were Barrett Har | ris, Thomas Miller, M. Y. Poe, W. L. Baker, E. J. Woodward and George Draughn, all of Southern Pines. The inquest was held in the Powell Funeral Chambers. SENATE OKAYS LIMIT ON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS WASHINGTON, March 14.— (#*)—The senate approved a $5, 000 limitation on political con tributions today by attaching an amendment to the pending anti politics legislation. The limitation provision, spon sored by 'opponents of amend ments to broaden the Hatch act, carried by a vote of 40 to 38. Senator Bankhead (D-ALA), author of the limiting provision, immediately clinched his victory when the senate tabled a re consideration motion 41 to 38. EINSTEIjN 61 YESTERDAY PRINCETON, N. J., March 14.—{#*)—Scientist Albert Ein stein observed his 61st birth day quietly today at his home. Asked whether he had any plans to publish anything in the immediate future on addi tional progress in his unified field theory , research, he re plied: “No, ni>. I’m having diffi culty there.” DR. KOCH IN FORUM PLAY PRESENTATION READS GREEN DRAMA Proof that Pinehurst folks are gradually developing an im munity to the elements was proved by the size of last night’s Forum audience. For those hardy souls who made the grade, the effort was amply re warded by one of the finest Forums thus far. Dr. Frederick H. Koch, the speaker of the evening, opened the program by telling of the great increase in dramatic in terest evidenced by the schools of the nation at large, and re lating many interesting specific facts in the undergraduate life of some of our foremost play wrights who studied under him. Dr. Koch pointed ou£ the me tamorphosis which had changed North Carolina from being what Mencken had justifiably termed “the Sahara of Beaux Arts,” to a state that at present has five volumes of its own dramatic literature published in some ten editions, and is having its hands full to meet the ever-increasing popular demand for more of them. The play, “Fixins” by Paul Green, which was admirably read by Dr. Koch, was based on the life of a tenant farmer of North Carolina. GIFT OF OLD METAL ASKED FOR HITLER ON 51ST BIRTHDAY BERLIN, March 14.—(JF)—A decree by Field Marshal Her mann Wilhelm Goering, Ger many’s economic dictator, called on the German people today to make Adolf Hitler “a gift of old metal” on his 51st birthday, April 20. A great collection of metals to replenish the materials and supplies of the war industries would be the gift the Fuehrer would appreciate most, the na tion was told. Germans therefore were urged to rummage their homes and shops for metal objects of all sorts which, even at consider able sacrifice, can be spared so as to keep the war factories go ing full tilt. ‘“After all their miscalcula tions, the enemy now hopes we will run out of certain metals, essential to the conduct of war, which they believe are produced in Germany in insufficient quan tity,” the decree said. “We will give them the right answer and in good time create a metal reserve. Therefore I call on you to make a great col lection.” COMMUNISTS REFUSED LISTING OF ELECTORS TALLAHASSEE, Fla., March 14.—{&)—The Communist party was refused today permission to have the names of its presi dential electors printed on the ballot in Florida. Secretary of State R. A. Gray informed Rob F. Hall, southern representative of the Commun ist National Campaign commit tee, that only the Democratic and Republican parties are rec o*gnized in Florida since only these parties were registered more than five per cent of the total qualified voters in the state. SANDWICH BUFFET During the, last North and South golf championships Miss Dorothy Pierce sold more than 1000 sandwiches in the special sandwich buffet set up in the Pinehurst Country Club. This feature will be resumed starting Saturday, when there will also be served, for those who enjoy something more than a sand wich, a buffet luncheon.
