The dim'nutive 21-year-old professional entered the ranks of "big time" golfers yesterday by winning the 28th annual north and south ] open golf championship from one |of the strongest fields that ever | has teed off in the event in many I years. “You know, I thought some of | the membe’s might think I was I 100 Hfiipg for the job." Runyan ex plained. “Now that I've won this title and finished ahead of Horton Smith and a flock of former nation ] al open champions.

CHILD CRUSADE AGAIN TO MARCH INTO CARTHAGE Eucharistic Congress Program Includes Impressive Palm Promenade Cartilage. Tunisia. March 29 -- il’P) Runiiilsconf <>f the first ("uislian Crusade In the thirteenth i i'uiuiy in which thouHimd-i of chil dr*n died by the loadside on their ; way to fight the uuheiieving Turks, | i Children's Crusade will he hold In the ruins of the old Roman ampitheatre here during the Interna itional Eiieha/istic Congress starting on May 7. Thousands of religiously inspired hois and girls from every Catholic ountty in the wot id, dressed in Crusader's costumes, will parade around the ancietr colosseum while other the. Hands of still unconverted Arabs watch their march from tho neigh bo) ing hills. Unlike the seventh Crusade led i by King Loul- IX of France, agains' 'he hostile Mussulmans of North Africa, it is expected this modern lay ctusade will be held without bloodshed or hostility on the part of i he thousands of Mussulmans who I dill live around Tunis and Cartl.-1 I tge. The Mu sulman leaders of the :ihe.- in thi; legion have promised organizers of the Eucharis'ic Con-, gress that they will not disturb or ] interrupt tho congress. This parade of Catholic children j will have a special significance for] both the Catholics and Mussulmans, s nee in the Roman aamphitheatre i where 'he children will march.: thousands of Christians once were thrown to hungry lions by the Ro mans and later Chiistian armies killed thousands of Turks and Arabs in the name of Christianity. Carthage partichlarly is a sainted spot to tlte Catholics because it was i here that Louis IX died while lead-] ing the seventh crusade through Tunisia toward Palestine. Louis with his army stopped at Tunis in •he hope of converting the King of Tunis, a Mussulman. King Louis wro e the following to the King of Tunis: "Tell the King of Tunis that 1 so ardently seek the welfare of his oul that I will resign myself to remain all my life in a Satacen prison without ever again seing daylight, if under his condition the King and his nation will he baptised wi It good heart." King Louis, however, was unable •o keep his promise even if the hea i hen King hud agreed, for weakened by his crossing of the Mediterra" ] -au he tell sick and died. He was 'ater sainted, by the church. Tlie Mussulmans of this vicinity fell tlie s'ory with a slightly different variation. They relate that King Louis, taken sick, was converted to Mohammedanism by special angels | roni Allah. He died, according to 'hem under the faith of the crescen rather than the cross, ami upon his head he wore the burnous of a pious ma'about. Thus it will be that descendants of both Christians and Mussulmans | will again face each o her at Car I thage. o REPORT FILED BY COMMISSION WITH HOOVER — tCONTINTTED FROM PAGE ONE) steps” the comm salon teconi mended policies to be followed by j this country in b Iping the Hai tians establish peace, prosperity and order.

' I was jailed wrongfully," Miss Mired said, "and it is the du y of police chief Downs to free me.” She said she had refused the of'er of two wealthy farmers who las! tight offered the SSOO bond demand'd by the county authorities. "l or two years I've been fighting he liquor menace in Pampa," she said. “Do those officers and men ' on that grand jury think I'll give ip just because I'm in jail? I’ll stay I here until Pampa goes dry and i when 1 get out I’ll show people how they can buy liquor right here on their main street." . Miss Allred said, "They may stop me talking" but the “ink in my pen has not run dry.” she was referring to the mimeograph papers which she had written and had printed weekly and which were distributed in all pa.ts of the city. These she said, would be continued as long as she remained in Pampa. "I'll make my headquarters right in this cell" she announced. “This is my line of duty. Every martyr to a cause has to suffer."
