George Lance Easy Victor in Golf Event State Amateur Champ Finishes Strong to Top George Denny and Dave Mitchell by Five Strokes in District Play. BY DICK MILLER George Lance can miss a hall dozen shots in a fifty-four-hole tournament and still be out in front of the field five strokes in this section of the golf world, it was proved conclusively Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Lance, who has been the Indiana amateur champion since

he adopted Hoosierdom as a home four years ago, won his second annual Indianapolis District Golf Association title at Broadmoor Wednesday. At the finish he was five strokes out in front of the field he had trailed at the end of eighteen and thirty-six holes, and which he never caught until the last nine holes Wednesday. But when he caught up all he had to do was fire away at par and watch the challengers fold up. Lance won with a total of 227. Second place was a tie between Dave Mitchell of South Grove and George Denny of Speedway with 232. George Green of Speedway held fourth place with 233 and John McGuire of Speedway and Ben Cohee of Meridian Hills tied for fifth with 234 each. This tournament was in no way an easy one for Lane. After he got out into a lead and had only two holes to go he frankly admitted he had done the hardest week of work he had attempted for some time, and all during

Lance

a couple of days of play. George wasn’t hitting his shots as well as he usually does, at least not all of them, and certainly he was not pleased with his exhibition of putting.

George Denny was out in front of Lance one stroke at the end of thirty-six holes Tuesday night. Honoring that lead, the officials of the district association placed Denny and Lance, Bill Diddel and Bill Heinletn in the same foursome. If anything kept Denny from winning that move did, not that it was intentionally done, but because the position held by Denny in the select foursome, with the gallery that followed, was something to which Denny was unaccustomed. Lar.ee and Denny felled to alter their Standing on the first hole, Lance getting In the rough and Denny In a trap, each to go one over par with a 5. Heinleln was in a trap and took a 6 while Diddel snagged a swell birdie 4. Denny went trto strokes up on George when he got a par 4 on the second and Lance sent his second shot to the side of the green and after pitching on took two putts. Heinleln missed a putt and Bill Diddel was In trouble and took a 6. Heinletn missed a fairway shot on the third and took a 5 while all the other got par 4’a. Lance missed a very short putt on the fourth green, taking three of them and Denny went three strokes up with a par 3. and Heinleln and Diddel each got 3's. Lance got one stroke back on the fifth when Denny was in two different traps. Heinleln also. took a 5 and Diddel a 4. Lance putted away a chance to get back another stroke after getting on the sixth green In two. making three putts halve the hole In 5s with Denny. Heinlein took a 8 and Bill Diddel showed some more pice shooting to get a 4. Denny drove into the trap on the next hole, got Into another trap, took two putts and finally took a 6 while Lance got his par 4 and squared the match. Denny got a break, however, when Lance took 3 putts on the eighth. The ninth lound George with a second shot on to the velvet and a birdie 4 which again squared the count. For the nine holes Lance had 39. Denny 40, Heinleln 41 and Diddel 39. Par for the nine Is 35. Lance missed another chance on the tenth when Denny fired his tee shot right against a fence on his left and had to make a great recovery to get In the cup

KRAFT PROVES THAT HE IS FINE ARTIST Organist Shows the Greatness of His Artistry by Playing the Compositions of Max Reger in Recital. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN IF it were necessary for the proof of the artistry and the musical intelligence of Edwin Arthur Kraft, head of the northern Ohio chapter of the Guild of Organists and organist of Trinity cathedral, Cleveland, 0.. it was given many times yesterday afternoon at the Scottish Rite cathedral. Kraft gave one of the outstanding recitals of the convention of the American Guild of Organists and the works of Max Reger and Louis Thiele reflected the fine artistry of the organist. The fact is that many of us do not get to hear fine organ music unless we go to church or to an occasional opening of a pipe organ.

When Kraft started on “Theme and Variations in A Flat.” by Thiele, it was evident that the master was present at the console of the fine organ at the Scottish Rite. Here was nearly perfect mechanics in playing the pipe organ. Here was masterful handling of all departments cf the organ. Again Kraft’s genius sparkled all the way through Reger’s “Fantasie and Fugue on Bach.” The program rightly stated that “this work is one of the greatest organ compositions that ever has been written.” And it was as greatly played as it was composed by Reger. This number caused such an ovation that Kraft gave an encore, another composition by Reger. Last night at the Broad Methodist Episcopal church, the Mendelssohn choir under the direction of Elmer Andrew Steffen gave a choral recital in addition to an organ recital by Louis Carol Titcomb of St. I/OUis. Today the opening sessions of the convention began at the North

Methodist Episcopal church with addresses and a recital. The major event of the afternoon was to be a reception and recital by Bomar Cramer, pianist of Indianapolis, and Marie Simmelink Kraft of Cleveland. u ts n Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Strictly Dishonorable’’ at English’s, “Daddy Long Legs” at the Apollo, “The Lawyers Secret” at the Indiana, “Young Donovan’s Kid” at the Circle, “The Maltese Falcon” at the Lyric, “Laughing Sinners” at the Palace, “Bom to Love" at the Ohio, and burlesque at the Mutual. cites spineTll~cause Medical Association Told Underfeeding Leads to Curvature.

DIESEL AUTOS WILL BID FOR BUS SPOTLIGHT Cummins Soon to Have Car Make Cross-Country Freight Run. BY NORMAN E. ISAACS Already credited with more world’s records than they can tabulate, Cleosie L. Cummins of Columbus,: Ind., builder and owner of the sensational oil-burning Diesel automobile, and Dave Evans, the star race driver, who Is its pilot, were in Detroit today exhibiting the auto and making preparations for the biggest step in the Diesel's “career.” Although not entered in the 100mile A. A. A. race at Detroit fairground Sunday, Evans promises to set several new records around the dirt track in the Cummins-Diesel. which thousands of Detroit persons have been clamoring to see. While in Detroit, Cummins will purchase a large truck. That will be the signal of the Diesel’s entry into commercial truck and bus transportation. The motor will be removed from the truck and the present motor in the Disel race car installed in the truck frame. Evans then will drive the truckloaded with freight—across the country in what almost assuredly will be the lowest-cost payload ever hauled from coast to coast. The economy of the trip probably will be so low that users of trucks and busses immediately will be i

struck with the oil-burner’s accomplishment, Cummins believes. Cummins then is expected to step directly into the manufacturing field, although no official announcement ever has been made of his intentions. The Diesel car first came into prominence early in 1930 when Cummins himself drove the car from Columbus, Ind., to New York at the phenomenally low fuel cost of $1.70. Later he drove the car from Columbus to Daytona Beach, Fla., in another amazing fuel economy run, and while at Daytona established several world’s records for Diesel

car speeds, making over 101 miles an hour on the sands. The motor was cut down slightly and converted into a racing machine which Evans qualified for the 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway last month at more than ninety-seven miles an hour. The car probably would have attained 100 miles an hour had it not been bucking into stiff head winds on the north turn. Evans raced the car into thirteenth place in the 500-mile race, never stopping his car. The tires held up perfectly and the fuel cost in the race was about $1.60, Cummins estimated.
