Youthful Shelby i
Star Wins Title
For Second Time
Beal# Perrr One Up For Carolina#
Crown With Brilliant 12-Foot
Putt.
-
(John Heller in Greensboro News.) j
Fled Webb, rangy southpaw golf
artist from Shelby, for the second
time tr. his brief but brilliant ca
reer, wears the crown symbolizing
the junior links championship of
North and South Carolina. Webb
reclaimed the title .which he held
two years ago, Wednesday at the
Sedgefield Country club when he
defeated the gallant Clifford Perry,
of Winston-Salem, by the margin
or 1 up in the first flights finals of
the fifth annual Carolina* cham
pionship tournament.
Battle Of The Giant*.
Tn tlie afternoon finals two
youngsters in sisie and years, but
giants in their ability at the game,
went out to compete for the title,
with Fred Webb in one comer of1
the arena and Clifford in the other.
Likewise in the second flight finals
the opposite corners were occupied
by Joe Cornwell and Edward Mere
dith.
The title match between Webb
and Perry was evenly and fiercely
fought, and found the decision tn
doubt most of the way. Both lads
not yet 17 years of age, Webb show
ed a little more ruggedness, a little
more boldness and a little T““ *
generalship in the tight places from
his somewhat greater experience
Yet In spite of this, his opponent
matched him nearly stroke for
stroke and never once lowered his
colors or weakened his admirable
fighting spirit, to carry the match
to the very last hole
Webb got his lead in the match
at the fifth hole when Perry hook
ed his drive and landed in the
woods to finish with a six, while
the other was parring the hole in
five, Webb nosed ahead another,
point on the seventh hole by play-j
ing in even par figures while Perry
was getting into trouble to end with I
a losing five
Webb Protects Lead.
The advantage remained Webbs
from here on, with Perry reducing
the other's lead by one tally on
Several occasions.
On the 17th hole Perry won with
a neat par four as against Webb’s
five, the fight going to the 18th,
and It was here that Fred Webb
showed the golfing caliber of which
he Is made In the trap with his
second shot and falling to come out
with hia third, he found himseir
lying four and a long, 12-foot putt
to be dropped in the cup or else see
the match halved and earned on.
Then Webb did the difficult and
extremely trying thing by stepping
up and carefully sending the decid
ing putt home, thus halving the
: nole in five and winning the fight.
Three Webb Winner*.
Tn addition to being the Caro
linas junior champion twice. Fred
Webb has been in the finals of the
championship struggle three times.
Likewise the title itself has been m
the Webb family three times, Pete
Webb Of Shelby, brother of Fred
and now a professional having
claimed the crown in 1928
Big Shelby Event.
The tournament was much of a
Shelby event, Two of the four semi
finalists were Shelby boys, Webb,
the champion, and Claude Brown
Rippy. The cup winner of the third
flight was another Shelby boy, Jim
Reed.

Gardner Declares
Expenses Of State
Must Be Decreased
(CONTINUED t'llOM PAGE ONE*'
require that which it Is now re
questing.
"There has been no cut made yet,”
said Henry Burke, assistant direc
tor of the budget. "What will be
done in the future depends on con
ditions.” He further indicated that
there might be no horizontal cut
for the first quarter of the new fis
cal year, beginning July 1. but that
if the voluntary economy was not
taken and tax collection outlook did
not Improve, the arbitrary cut might
be expected.
Far Less to Spend.
If the request 1s adopted volun
tarily or if the budget authorities
arbitrarily follow their own sugges
tion, it will mean that In many in
stances state agencies will have to
get along on three-fourths or even
two-thirds of the money they have
spent during this biennium, which
in itself was far below the appro
priations made by the legislature of
1929.
The general impression went out,
just after the legislature, that sal
ary cuts would be the only reduc •
tions to be made, certainly at the
beginning of the coming biennium.
That Impression was strengthened
when the advisory budget commis
sion met a short time ago. The bud
get director's drastic request, with
its hint of drastic action to follow,
was received as a ' bolt from the
blue” when It arrived.
Deficit of $3,700,000 Inevitable.
Even with the requested 20 per
cent cut, Mr. Burke estimates a
deficit of a million dollars a year
to be added to the deficit of $1,700,
000 which the memorandum esti
mated for the outgoing biennium.
But, as indicated by the wording 6i
the memorandum and even more so
by conversation with Mr. Burke, it
is the bureau’s intention to keep the
deficit for the Gardner administra
tion period down to $3,700,000. If
conditions improve, the memoran
dum states, economies will be less
drastic.
The memorandum shows that the
appropriations made by the last leg
islature were some $2,725,000 a year
more than the estimated revenue to
be obtained through the acts of the
same legislature. Accepting a mil
lion a year deficit as inevitable, the
budget authorities ask the state of
ficials to save $1,725,000 on their
appropriations.
“The director of the budget is
sharing with you the hope for the
future In that he is waiving a sum
of $3,700,000 in proceeding to'a bal
anced budget for the biennium
1931-33.” was one statement in the
memorandum, "And on your part he
is asking that you consider the
present plight and pledge your cour
age, self-sacrifice and patriotism to
a program of economy and retrench
ment and under which the $1,723,
000 a year will be saved—$3,450,000
for the biennium. Spending, 80 per
cent of the appropriation will do it.
The intention though is to commit]
you now only to the first fiscal year,
and if conditions change to take up
the second fiscal year on the basis
of such change, and to give weight
to changes along through the first
fiscal year."
Tax Reduction Fund.
The memorandum explains the
reason such a drastic cut in insti
tutional and departmental expendi
tures is necessary to reach the de
sired saving is that the six months
school and fixed charges appropria
tions cannot be cut. It does state,
however, the $1,500,000 tax reduc
tion fund, to be used as state aid
for extended terms, is not inviolate,
and it indicates that it, too, may be
cut.

haired, hazel-eyed companion, and
what her experiences were with and
without him are things known only
to the girl herself. And just now
she doesn’t want to talk. Perhaps
sh^ never will. But if those pitiful,
clutching hands on an old man's

Because she knows that all the
colorful ideas of worlds well lost for

the covers of spicy magazines and
on the silver screen, and that for
the plain, hard business of living

and adequate background.
