Staff Correspondent) NYATT, R.L., Sept. 6.—Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, Merion Cricket Club, won the women's national golf championship here today when she defeated Miss Mary K. Browne, Los Angeles, 7 and 6 in the 36th hole finals at the Rhode Island Country Club. Mrs. Hurd was far too steady for Miss Browne. She played a fine morning round of 81 and by so doing established a lead of five holes. Miss Browne's play was spotty. She played many good shots, but too many bad ones to cope with Mrs. Hurd. MRS. HURD LEADS NAYAT, R.L., Sept. 6.—Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, Philadelphia, was five up at the end of the first 18 holes of her match with Miss Mary K. Browne of Los Angeles for the women's national golf championship here today. The final 18 holes were to be played this afternoon.

"BELOVED VAGABOND" SPLENDID OFFERING Carlyle Blackwell, who is the producer and star, of "The Beloved Vagabond," adopted from W.J. Locke's book of the same name which opens at the United Theatre tonight and continues tomorrow, experienced a great deal of trouble in finding a dog for the film. All readers of "The Beloved Vagabond" will remember Narcisse, the dog. Paragot, the vagabond, saw him on a country road, as he started with the boy, Astieceton his vagaboundage, and remarked, "That dog is a philosopher." So he named him Narcisse and he became one of the trumping party. While the film company were on location, Blackwell sent his casting director out to find a mongrel dog to play the part of Narcisse. The casting director visited every animal store in the town and examined over 600 dogs trying to and the one he wanted. As a last hope he visited the city pound, and found there just the mongrel he desired. So that the dog not only became a film "star," but can actually bark that his face saved his life. No one knows how many breeds are mixed in the lovable little beast. He has long, floppy ears like a hound, a persistently waggy tail, and a face that actually smiles. Blackwell was delighted with him and the dog acted as though he was the real dog of "The Beloved Vagabond." Another feature of the program will be Wm. Duncan and Edith Johnson in that stupendously thrilling Railroad romance, "The Fast Express and an exceptionally funny comedy. Kiddies don't forget your party Saturday afternoon.

Louise Fazenda is Listen Lester The story of a screen adaptation outlasting its stage parent is oft told tale; but the case of a monous stage comedy success beout-popularized by its screen adaption is comparatively new. She a story comes to light in screening and release of "Listen Lester," which Sacramento Pictures Corp. has made from musical comedy hit of two years ago. To try to analyze the reason for this is difficult because the screen appeals to different elements and emotions than the stage. The introduction of merous gags, situations and coedy coincidences that the techie qualities and facilities of the stu would not permit must be largely responsible. Harry Myers, Lee Moran, A Francis, George O'Hara, Eva M vak, Louise Fazenda and Dot Ley comprise the cast that he worked hard and faithful in making the picture a hit. Willi Seiter directed. According to early reports "The ten Lester" is one of the most screen comedy hits of the year. will open Sunday at the Uni Theatre.

Those who saw the affray said that Murphy and Lorenz engaged in a heated conversation and soon exchanged blows. It is alleged that a right hand punch delivered by Murphy floored Lorenz and badly discolored his eye. At this juncture Manager Essick is said to have stepped up and struck Murphy, a slashing blow. Other members of the team who were in the lobby, separated the participants, according to DODGERS BATTLE GIANTS SUNDAY NEW YORK, Sept. 6.—Wilbert Robinson, the philosopher who makes mountains grow where molehills failed, and an occasional ball club out of the Brooklyn Dodgers, seemed to have dealt himself a full hand from the discards. Your Uncle Robbie's ball club, it seems, has stepped out of character to the extent of reeling off 14 straight victories and is doing its earnest best to run the Giants off the reservation. Their chances of so doing are better than ever, in view of the fact that the Dodgers and Giants are due to mingle, starting tomorrow, and it is a local tradition that, all else being equal, Robbie can beat McGraw at anything from pants legs to pinchle. Yet the Dodgers seem to have very little—except Robbie himself. His is the hand that makes bricks without straw and ball players without inertia. There is, for example, Jack Fournier. He was to have been wafted out of the majors altogether via the Yankees, but Robbie needed a first baseman and appears to have got one, speaking in a curious sense. Another exhibit is Milton Stock, who, like Fournier, had outlasted his welcome in St. Louis. We have it on the best of authority that both would be permitted to remain in Brooklyn for the time being. Dazay Vance, winner of 25 games this season, is hailed as the greatest right hander in baseball today, yet the Yanks had him twice and weren't particularly pleased about it, at that. Johnny Mitchell, another ex-Yank is a recent acquisition who is alleged to have brot the winning streak with him. John was a flop with the Yankees and Red Sox, being sent away by the latter in lieu of Dudley Lee. He has played fine ball with the Dodgers. BILLEY DODGERS IN FIRST PLACE TON, Sept. 6.

WALKER, Professional at Anaheim Public Golf Course LESSON NO. 4 BALANCE To diagnose the balance you must have when addressing and hitting a golf ball just imagine you are sitting in a chair with your knees bent in towards the ball and most of the weight back on your heels, not forward on your toes. This will give you the proper balance and straight line up and in towards the ball. Be sure that in coming back from the top of the swing you observe the line your left arm executed in going up and that you bring or lead your right arm along that same lin of direction. To accomplish this keep your right arm close in towards the body going up, then you will be sure of the right coming in in the proper line. Another most essential point is to never lose track of the weight on your left foot when swapping to the top of the stroke with your clubs. To acquire the remember when swinging the ball to be sure to lift the heel at the finish of the stroke. All the power of the stroke come from the left arm. Always turn your head to right shoulder so that the left can look at the bottom side and do not the head up till you are on the club head hit through ball. You have ample time to look up and see the ball in the air towards the hole. So many players top the ball that is the reason. They make that left eye look at the ball and keep it there the ball has been hit.
