QUARTER-FINAL ROUND STARTS Beverly Country Club, Chicago. July 24.—(U.K—The 1930 western amateur golf championship appear“d in danger of leaving America as the eight remaining contestants teed off today for the quarter-final matches. T. Phillip Perkins, of England, by eliminating Earle Berryhill of Colorado Springs, eight and seven, n one of the second round matches yesterday became a joint favorite with Don Moe of Portland, Ore., defending champion, to annex the crown. Perkins, winner of the 1928 British amateur title, was the sole foreigner still In the running. Hfs fellow countryman, Cyril Tolley, was eliminated yesterday by Bob McCrary of Des Moines, twice trans-Mississippi champion, 1 up. Tolley was one of the two favorites who fell by the wayside in the second round matches. The other was Chick Evans of Chicago, who was upset by C. M. Fish of Rock ford. 111., 1 up on the 19th hole. By his impressive play, Perkins became a great favorite with the gallery, although Moe also had his following. The latter was given a spirited battle in the second round by John Howard of Kalamazoo, Mich., after he had an easy time disposing of V. M. Huntington of Addison, 111., in the first round. Moe's margin over Howard was 2 and 1. Gas Movotny, Ira Couch, Johnny I, liman, and Jack Westland, all of hicago, were the other men who teed off with McCrary, Moe, Fish nd P‘ rkins tor the quarter final round. Fish displayed remarkable accuracy with his putter to dispose of the veteran Evans. He sunk a 15-foot putt for a birdie three on the 19th after Evans' great bid for the match on the 18th green failed when his 25-foot putt stopped at the lip of the cup. McCraty came from behind to eliminate Tolley. With the match all square at the end of the 17th hole after the Des Moines star had landed his ball in the rough to recover with a beautiful chip shot, Tolley’s approach shot was trapped on the last hole and he took a six while McCrary got a five.

INDEPENDENCE HALL WILL GET OVERHAULING Byrd’s Visit To Philadelphia Causes Renewed Interest In Historic Spot Philadelphia, July 24—(UP) —Independence Hall, this city’s leading point of interest and the nation’s foremost historical shrine, is to get its usual coat of paint a year ahead ot time this year as a result of Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd’s visit to its sacred halls a few weeks ago. This spring has witnessed the greatest influx of visitors experi■need in recent years but following Byrd’s trip through the building in which the Declaration of Independence was signed the daily crowds of sightseers liJs-Increas-'d at Bast two-fould. Coincident with this great awakening of public spirit there has been a great deal of criticism of the condition of the buildings which compr iis e Independence Square. People from the far west, the north and south, arriving here after long, weary rides in their automobiles gather in knots and whisper hat the famous belfry from which the message of liberty was tolled is drab and mottled in appearance. They seem shocked to find that the other towers which top tne old Supreme court building and Congress Hall are spotty and weatherbeaten. Wandering under the archways connecting the buildings, they find that they too resemble the towers in their smudgy appearmce. Reports of these whispers and criticisms reached the ear of Charles W. Neeld, chief of the Bureau >f City Property and resulted in his taking a tour of inspection through the buildings which annually attract thousands of visitors from all over the country. Followng came his announcement that he had ordered the building painted from top to bottom, given any necessary repairs and generally overhauled. The small army of men needed in the job will start work immediately but will plan their work so that they will in no way interfere with the host of visitors expected during the summer months. For the most part the interior of the buildings is in good condition and it is expected that no scaffolds will have to be erected there. What | scaffolding is necessary to reach the outside of the buildings will not be in the way. #

PHILLIP J. DATSON “I suffered from accumulated gases after eating, kidney and liver weakness and a general run down condition,” said Mr. Phillip J. Datson, Daleville, Ind., near Muncie. “I often became so ■ilefepy after meals that I could not remain awake and even getting about was an effort. After some persuasion on the part of a friend who had been benefited by Konjola, I decided to give this medicine a trial. All other medicines and treatments had failed. “I little expected Konjola to do all that it did for me. It went right to work and in the course of three weeks I began to feel like another person. I continued to take Konjola for five weeks. One by one my health troubles left me. Today I am a well man and can never give Konjola the praise it really deserves. I shall endorse it to all who suffer as I did.” Konjola, when given a real trial, usually from five to eight weeks, easily and harmlessly eliminates the poisons responsible for ailments of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, and rheumatism, neuritis and nervousness. Konjola 's sold in Decatur, Ind., at the B. J. Smith drug store, and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.

HOOVER TO FACE TASK OF NAMING MEXICAN ENVOY J. Reuben Clark Believed Logical Successor to Ambassador Morrow By Louis Jay Heath (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, Jul 24-(UP)—Pre-sident Hoover will soon be faced with difficult task of naming a new ambassador to Mexico City to succeed Dwight W. Morrow. Morrow’s success in the New Jersey senatorial primaries has made his resignation only a matter of months and alleady interest Is centering here in his probable successor. Observers see a dual problem confronting the president in selecting a man for the Mexican post. Mexi-can-United States relations are now on a more friendly basis than for many years past. Mr. Hoover is understood earnestly to desire that they remain so. Ambassador Morrow has, according to all reports, endeared himself to Mexican officials and to the Mexican officials and to the Mexican people who will feel keen disappointment at his departure and inevitably will measure his successor by comparisons with him. President Hoover’s task is to select a man who can measure up to the Morrow standard of ability and at the same time carry on the policy of friendly international cooperation which began with Morrow's advent in Mexican-Unistates relations. For some time past the name most frequently mentioned whenever official and unofficial speculation is heard is that of J. Reuben Clark, who has been holding the fort at Mexico City during Marrow’s recent absence. Os late there

have been rumors that for private reasons, largely because of the heavy financial burden which the Mexican ambassadorship entails, Clark might hesitate to accept tinpost if it were offered him. Clark would be persona grata to Mexico It is believed in unofficial circles here and Mexican Ambassador Tellez in private conversations frequently has expressed 3 very high opinion of his capabilities. Clark's association with Morrow Is also of long standing and there are many here who believe that the former Assistant Secretary of state would be Morrow’s own personal choice as a successor. His association with Morrow in Mexico has made him thoroughly familiar with the ambassador’s methods and program which should prove valuable in continuing the present relations. It is also believed that Morrow’s recommendation in the matter will have a most Important bearing upon the president’s final selection. o — Icelandic Language The language of Iceland Is still the Old Norse In well-preserved form, but this is now but very little understood by the other Scandinavians.
