Two Wisconsin Girls
Seek Golf Tide of
t Approaching Season
MILWAUKEE, Wis., May 18.—(£>)
—The major contests for golfing hon
ors among women this season will
be played in the middle west. Among
the contenders likely to take a lead
ing part in attempting to wrest the
national tile from the east, where it
is now held by Mrs. Dorothy Camp
bell Hurd, are two Wisconsin golf
ers.
The younger of this pair, Miss
Bernice Wall of Oshkosh, is now
champion of Wisconsin for the third
time, while the other, Miss Prances
Hadfield of Milwaukee, has display
ed expert golf at times, having been
runner-up once in the western cham
pionship, as well as state titlehold
er. Both are faithful followers of
links, and are planting to partici
pate in all the leading events of the
season.
Miss Wall, although a rather slight
girl, has a splendid game, playing
both wood and iron in good form.
She gets good distance from the
tee and through the fairway, but
her specialty is in the short game.
She approaches and putts well when
at the top of her form. To those
who do not know her prowess on the
links, she appears at the starting
tee to be one of the adventurous
girls who enter tournaments as a
lark and giggle while they roll up a
score in three figures for 18 holes.
But when the well-timed swing, mak
ing up for lack of more hardened
muscles, allows the Oshkosh girl to
send the ball whizzing down the
fairway full 200 yards or more, the
onlooker amazedly admits that mas
culinity can learn something from
feminity, even on the golf links.
Miss Wall has been playing golf
since she was a child, and while that
is not very long, she has studied
so assiduously that she has learned
the intricacies of the game. She
first attracted attention in her own
state by winning the northeastern
Wisconsin title in 1920, and she de
fended the title for two years there
after. She was a strong contender
from that time, taking the state title
in 1921 and again in 1923. She still
holds the championship by virtue of
her third success last 'summer.
The Wisconsin champion proved
her ability in larger fields by win
ning the medal score competition in
the Chicago district in 1922, topping
a field made up of the best western
women golfers. Experience and paa
turity enabled her to reach the an
tepenultimate round in the national
championship last summer, and last
winter she was runner-up in the
Florida West Coast event at Bellair.
And this attractive young miss has
mapped out an extensive campaign
for the coming season. She plans to
enter the Buffalo invitational tour
nament in June, to defend her state
title at Kenosha, to renew her at
tack on the western title at St. Paul,
to invade Canada for the champion
ship meet at Ottawa, and to try
for the national crown at St. Loui3
in September.
Miss Hadfield attracted attention
when only 12 years old by her abil
ity as a sturdy child to drive a golf
ball further than many ordinary golf
ers. She was runner-up in the wes
tern championship several years ago,
and besides holding the Wisconsin
championship and several other re
gional titles, displayed about the
best game of her career in Florida
last winter, where she defeated some
of the leading players of the coun
try.
She is a more powerful player than
Miss Wall, her drive carrying far
down the course and her irons reach
ing the green from distances that
would force many players to use a
spoon or even a brassie. She ex
pects to compete in most of the
leading meets of the year.
While Miss Hadfield has not won
any important events outside her
home state, she has accounted for
many a leading contender, and has
seldom been known to fail in the
qualifying round or to fall in the
early matches of a tournament. And
like Miss Wall, she always has been
a good loser.

WASHINGTON IN JUNE
TO SEE GATHERING OF
NATIONAL CREDIT MEN
WASHINGTON, D. C., May lo —
(i^P)—Manufacturers, wholesalers and
bankers from all parts of the coun*
try will gather in Washington June
8 to 13 at the Thirtieth Annual Con
vention of the National Association
of Credit Men, to survey the present
credit situation, both domestic and
foreign; lay down a credit policy
for the coming year, and pursue
their already well developed pro
gram, to be backed by a $1,000,000
fund for the prosecution of commer
cial criminals.
The campaign against credit
crooks, one of the most vital projects
now before the association, will come
up for consideration when a report
is made upon the progress of the
movement. An address will be de
livered by William J. Donovan, as
sistant to the attorney general, who
as U. S. district attorney at Buffa
lo, and later as a justice departmen
tal official, has been deeply interest
ed in the movement to curb com
mercial frauds.
The discussion will be opened by
W. H. Pouch, of New York City,
chairman of the National Fund for
Credit Protection, who will report
son the progress made in the pro
gram to establish additional expert
investigators in key positions thru
out the country, and to build up a
machine to prosecute the guilty. The
•program is expected to receive the
backing of Attorney General Sar
gent, Secretary Mellon and Secretary
Hoover.
In addition to consideration of the
anti-credit-crime movement, the as
sociation will take up a wide range
of topics related to banking and cred
its, and will be addressed by a num
ber of government officials, leading
business men and bankers.
Bankers of the association, who are
organized as the Robert Morris As
sociates, with J. N. Eaton, as pres
ident, will present a report on the
credit situation at their annual meet
ing June 8, and will hold what they
call a “credit demonstration” June
9.
One of the principal addresses of
interest to bankers will be that of
Vice Governor Platt, an opponent of
the McFadden bill, who will speak
on "Branch Banking as a Means of
Preventing Bank Failures." Taxa
tion will be the subject of the ad
dress by Under Secretary Winston,
Senator Fess will speak on "Busi
ness and Legislation,” and Bishop
Freeman on the general subject of
religion and business.
Eugee S. Elkus, of San Francisco,
is president of the association, and
J. H. Tregoe, of New York City, ex
ecutive manager and treasurer.
