COOLIBQE'S VACATION NOW IN FULL SWING er White House Is Established in Black Hilta of South Dakota. {THE LINKS REFEREE) * * $ Interpretations of the Rule* ' ' of Golf \ * By INNIS BROWN ' t (Managing Editor, The American t 0 i Golfer) Here is a rather novel situation that came up at a club recently: The fairways of Nos. 4 and 6 run parallel for quite a distance. Between them at one place is a big wide sand trap. Two players in different matches, the one playing from No. tee and the other from No. 6, drove into the trap. When the players came up the balls were almost touching, so that it was impossible to play either without striking and moving the other. Furthermore, in playing out of the sand it vas almost certain that the player who played first would c\ange the He of the other ball. What would he proper under such conditions f No specific provision Is made for such a case, since so far as each player was concerned the other player was an agency outside the match. That being the case, If either player jnoved the other ball In playing his |>wn, the owner of the other ball would be required to drop It back as fcear as he could to where It was when tnoved. On the other hand, the player Who played first would ot course be obligated to smooth over the sand after playing his stroke. But the player who played first would be prevented from lifting the other ball by the rule which prevents lifting or touching any object before playb^ his -ball, as It lay in a hazard. Rapid City, S. D.--President and Mrs. Coolidge attended a small church at Herinosa and heard Rolf Llum, a twenty-year-old college boy, preach his first sermon. Rapid City. S. D.--Far from the centers of population. President Coolidge has turned to a new life in the Black Hills of South Dakota, where pinecoverdd mountains and wild game almost h&dge him from the outside world. In the center of 86 miles of forests he has set up the summer White House in the state game lodge where for the next two months or so be will live in a region skirting the great farming regions of the Northwest. It is the farthest West Mr. Coolidge- has come since he became President, and no Chief Executive before him ever traveled this far from Washington to live for such as extended period. In the qtitet retreat which will be his home he has an ideal setting for rest and relaxation. Within a stone's throw of the game lodge, mountain Streams abounding in trout are available when he cares to angle, and for both himself and Mrs. Coolidge shaded paths, carpeted with the fallen pine needles of many years, give promise of many pleasant hours of walking. Solitude and natural scenery of charm and distinction Inclose them from all sides. Space in the Rapid City high school has been set aside for their use and Secretaries Sanders and Clark are stationed there to keep Mr. Coolidge in constant touch with the national cap ltal. President Coolidge, It Is expected, will motor the 82 miles from the game lodge three or four times a week to meet visitors and transact business in the executive offices. Several truck loads of flies which came West with him on his special train are in their places in the offices. Instant communication has been provided between the lodge and the offices In Rapid City, over private wires, and another wire connects the office wltfi Washington. Although the trip to the game lodge is a good hour's ride, it Is over a fine graveled road and is easy motoring. When President and Mrs. Coolidge reached Rapid City, as was the case elsewhere in South Dakota, they received a warm welcome from the people who will be their hosts^for the summer. As the President alighted a cannon brought over from Fort Meade boomed out the Presidential salute of 21 guns and the crowds waved and clapped their hands along the line of parade to the edge of the city. Col. Edward W. Starling, who preceded the President to Rapid City to make arrangements, directed the procession toward Hermosa, where nearly 100 full-fledged cowboys gave Mr. Cool* idge an exhibition of rough riding in proof of the fact that he had come West Meanwhile a stir has come over the usually quiet valley where the summer White House nestles among pinecovered hills. Tourists eager to snap a picture and catch a glimpse of tb® Presidential couple, are beginning to come into the area, and although the lodgers' private road is closed to them, they are at liberty to travel past 09 the main traffic lane a few hundred yards away. Here they are able to see the rustic residence that houses the President and Mrs. Coolidge, the closelyclipped lawn that stretches away from his bowlder porch to a hurrying creek and the mountain goats, elk and deer, which, if there is not too much noise, come almost within the shadow of the summer White House. Soldiers from Fort Meade are stationed everywhere to guard the President, and among them are a number of full-blooded Indians. 0LODT/ & H MO SCOTT WATSON His Wife's Tongue Made Him a Pirate IN THE early part of the Eighteenth century there lived on the island of Barbados a retired British army officer named MaJ. Stede Bonnet. A man of good birth, education and some wealth, he was highly respected by his neighbors . and there apparently was no reason whatever for his action when, in the spring of 1717, he decided to become a pirate. But hls: tory, that Industrious gossip, says there was a reason and that reason was Dame Bonnef. She, so it Is said, had a tongue which would have made Xantlppe stand silent in awe. So between piracy and petulance, the major chose piracy. He purchased a swift schooner, which he named the Revenge, and set forth upon what was supposed to be a trading voyage. A few days out from port, he hoisted the black flag and announced to his crew that they were to be pirates. From the Carollnsis to Massachusetts the new pirate leader murdered and robbed and he is one of the few pirates who is known to have forced his captives to walk the plank. On one occasion he fell in with the pirate Blackbeard, who noticed that Bonnet was only an amateur pirate, and humiliated him by depriving him of his command and making him a clerk. Soon afterwards while Blackbeard was absent Bonnet went to Oov. Eden of North Carolina, surrendered and received a pardon. Then he announced that he was going to get a commission as a privateer and ravage the French and Spanish Shipping In the West Indies. He got a crew by going to the Island where Blackbeard had marooned some of his men, took t^em off and told them that he was going to seek out Blackbeard and have revenge. He failed to find the famous pirate, so he sailed away to the North. On this cruise he changed the name of his vessel to the Royal James-- a doubtful compliment to the Toung Pretender--and himself took the name of Captain Thomas. After looting a number of vessels off the Middle Atlantic coast Bonnet again turned south, only to find that the'Carolinas were aroused against him, A prominent citizen of South Carolina named William Rhett led an expedition in two ships against the. pirate leader and after one of the bloodiest battles ever fought between pirates and the forces of the-law, Rhett captured Bonnet and took him to Charles Town to be tried. Bonnet made the most abject, cowardly plea for mercy, but he was found guilty and sentenced to be hanged. He managed to escape from prison but was again captured on Sullivan's island by Rhett. He died In Execution dock, Nov. 24, 1718. ((B, 1928, Western Newspaper Union.) Vice President Dawes Honored by Princeton Princeton, N. J.--Vies President Charles O.
