Miss Rogers to display some more

mit, freely. I was getting pretty en-
thusiastic.
Be Miss Rogers qualified well up
toward the top of the list.
Mrs. b. B. Keeler, wife of this
correspondent, who was covering
the tournament in his stead, also
managed to get into the champion-
ship civision, and wrote modestly
enough in her story next day that
she was greatly pleased by the hap-
py chance that paired her with Mis
Rogers __________
Mrs. K. said she would enjoy flee-
ing the new phenomenon play, and
hoped she might manage, to carry
the match into the second nine.

UPSET
Then all she did was start on
that tough course 4-4-4 against Miss
Rogets; turn I up; and win at the
last green by that margin, after the
Jacksonville star had squared at the
17th green of a really terrific battle.
This performance afforded both
Mrs. K. and myself an acute prob-
lem for the stories the following
day. Of course she had to write the
story, and she did it very well in-
deed. I thought
But X to be honest, had to say
that the victor was a plump little
middle-aged lady who didn't take
up eqif until she was just about
twice'Miss Rogers present age—
which was the solemn truth.
I added, which was also the truth,
that Bobby Jones in his ' palmiest
days never afforded me more of a

that she (Mts. K> is quite the equal
of Miss Helen Hicks, though she
certainly beat the same opponent by
the same margin on a tougher
course than Miss Hicks won on.
But I do say it was, like the Bat-
tle of Blenheim, a famous victory.
AUSTN, April 1--The con-
stitutional amendment providing
for consolidation of the offices of
tax assessor and -tax collector into
one office has struck a snag even
before it has been approved by the
voters. Aadthe snag may even pre-
vent passage of the enacting statute
if the change, is authorised by the
electorate.
Th- amendment will be one of
those offered in the general election
inNovember. The trouble will come
when the tegtststure drafts the law -

Then the law makers will find
themselves in a dilemma. Mrs. Jane
Y. McCallum, secretary of state, be-
lieves. — —
"Which office will the consoli- .
dated position be?” she queried.
"Will it be the tax collector s or the '
tax assessors?"
Fears Controversy
Mrs. McCallum was fearful the
tax assesors would line up on one .
side of the question and the tax
collectors on the other, and thus
block passage of the enacting stat-
ute.
It has been hoped the legislature
would pass the enacting statute so
thatshe-constitutionaL amendment__;
would becom erTeguive January 1.
1935. In that manner it would not
interfere with the term” of office of
the collectors and assessots elected
at this falls election. .
In the event the legislature be-
comes embroiled in a conflict over
consolidation of the offices it prob-
ably will be proposed that another,
amendment be submitted that
would defitely set out which of-
