DECLARES ITSEEF
ON BOGEY RULES
Now York. August 6.?After months'
of uncertainty, the United States Golf '
Association has at last declared Itself i
as to its position regarding bogey j
rules. It appears that a decision was
reached at the executive session held
in Chicago. The lirst paragraph of
the pamphlet issued from the secre?
tary^ office reads as follows:
"A bogey competition is a series of
stroke competitions, in which play Is
against a fixed score at each hole of
the stipulated round or rounds, and
the winner is the competitor who is
the most successful in the aggregate
of these competitions. The rules for
stroke competitions shall apply, with
Ihe following exceptions:
'Any hole for which a competitor
m ikes no return shall be regarded as
a loss. The marker shall also be re?
sponsible for the marking; of the cor?
rect number of strokes at each hole
at which a competitor makes a score
either pn.ual to or less than the fixed '
score.
"2. Any breach of rule which entails 1
the penalty of disqualification shall
only disqualify the competitor for the j
hole at which the breach occurred, but :
a competitor shall not be exempted
from the general disqualification Im?
posed by strokes rules ?_? (1?. I (2) and
(1) and <21."
Then appears the following note:
"A scale showing the handicap al?
lowance, and Indicating the holes at
which strokes are to be <lven or taken,
-hall be printed on the back of every
scot ing card."
The United States Golf Association
recovimerid* that clubs continue to f<5l- J
low the custom of allowing each com- ;
Petitor three-quarters of his full ban- j
dicap. ?

W. A. Clarke, Jr.,
Secretary Retail Merchants Asso?

"The Boosters' Tour will' afford
a splendid opportunity to the
business men of Richmond to come
into personal contact with many
of their customers, and undoubt?
edly inspire others to do business
in Richmond. The Retail Mer?
chants' Association has been the
means of bringing a great deal of
new business to Richmond through
its fare-refunding system, and wc
believe this tour will result in great
good to those who participate in
' it. and to our city in general. We
will be represented on this tour,
and unite in extending to the peo?
ple in the territory to be covered a
hearty welcome to Richmond."
A Special Train of Pullman Sleep?

Virginia and North Carolina? towns
during the Three-Day Tour.
The personnel will include repre?

ask for Manager of Richmond Boost?
ers' Tour, who will give full particu?

They Will Come Together in
New York Early in

New York. August fi.?What prom?
ises to be one of the greatest rtghts
held under the new law will be be?
tween Abe Attel and 'Knockout'
Brown for ten rounds in this city,
during the early part of September.
The fight resolves itself into a ease
Of a crafty ring general, handicapped
by over ten pounds, facing one of the
toughest hitters of his weight in the
country. Nothing need be said re?
garding the reputation of Attel and
Brown. The featherweight champion
has been rtchtlng all sizes and man?
ner of rivals for so many years that
his career is nothing short of marvel?
ous. No matter what advantage his
opponents had entering the ring, with
few exceptions Attel found their weak!
spots, and before the finish was way!
out in front There will be few men'
in the squared circle for many years ;
who will duplicate the glowing record J
of this phenomenal lighter.
In the case of Brown, his career has
been short but startling. Within the

placed me In the most responsible posi?
tion Jt ha/I to give. My duty Is here

1 am going to gtuy here as long as
there is anything here for mc to do.
In oth*r words, 1 am not going to neg?
lect the work here In order to tun

In our Democratic House as superb.
We ate busy carrying out our promise
to the people, and we will OontiOuu

kind things that you say about me.
and am glad to observe that you are
pleased with the way the Democrats

branches of the government just as
successfully If giver, the opportunity,
and I believe the work of this HoUac
will result in our controlling them
