JONES RETIRES FROM ACTIVE GOLF
AFTER WINNING FOUR MAJOR CUPS

Bobby Jones,
America's premier golfer, who won the four major golf titles this

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.- With a
gesture of sportsmanship as dra-
mati'c as anything he ever achieved
on the links, Rokert T. Jones, jr.,
today walked from the throne-room
of golf.
King of all he surveys in his royal
realm at the age of only 28, the one
and only world conqueror of golf-
dom has decided to retire from all
championship competition, renoun-
cing his amateur standing at the
same time, to fulfill a contract to
make 12 one-reel motion pictures
on educational golfing subjects.
Signed Contract Nov. 13.
Jones signed a contract four days
ago, Nov. 13, with Warner Bros. pic-
tures, after considerable negotia-
tion, and in a statement of sweep-
ing frankness today made known
his intention to retire from all
"golfing competition of a serious
nature," after 14 years of intense
tournament play in this country
and abroad.
In short, business has taken the
place of pleasure and recreation, so
far as the Jones golf is concerned.
King Bobby, after a year in which
7'made a record-breaking clean
sweep of all the championships of
Great Britain and the United States,
has decided the opportun2by to re-
pair the family fortunes is not to
be overlooked.
Intended to Retire.
He intended to retire from title
tournaments, anyway, he revealed,
but had intended to "drop out quiet-
ly by neglecting to send in my en-
try to the Open championship next
spring." Now, however, and in view
of the business venture he has un-
dertaken, he thought it necessary
that a "clear understand'ng" be had
by the golfing public that has made
the great Georgian its idle since as
a youth of 14 he first crashed the
barriers of national championship
attention in 1916 at Philadelphia.
"Of course, the matter of mone-
tary compensation enters into the
discussion," his statement said.
"And it is for numerous reasons
that I wish to be perfectly under-
stood on this score. The amateur
status problem is one of the most
serious with which the United
States Gold association has to deal
for the good of the game as a whole.
"I am not certain that thenstep
I am taking is in a strict sense a
violation of the amateur rule. I
think a lot might be said on either
side, but I am so far convinced that
it is contrary to the spirit of ama-
teurism that I am prepared to ac-
cept and even endorse a ruling that
it is an infringement."
Prof. Winter to Give
Third Jerome Lecture
Prof. John G. Winter, of the Latin
department, will give the third in
the series of Thomas Spencer Jer-
ome lectures, presented by him
through the months of November
and December, at 4:15 o'clock this
afternoon in the west gallery of
Alumni Memorial hall. He will con-
tinue in this lecture the discussion,
begun in the second talk of the
serees, regarding "The Life of the
People in Town and Country" as
manifest in the Egyptian papyri.
The lecture room has been changed
from room D to the west gallery,
owing to the large crowds which
have been in attendance at the lec-
tures.

BARCELONA, Spain, Nov. 17.-
The red flag of revolution was
raised in the streets of the busiest
industrial city in Spain today as
thousands of workers walked out.
in a general strike and fought with
police in the streets, cheering "the
republic."
Bread lines were forming tonight,
for stores had been closed all day.
Bakeries had ceased to function,
the bakers having joined the strike.
Police prepared to man the ovens
as the menace of a food shortage
appeared.
Strike for More Pay.
I What had begun as a strike for
more pay and shorter work day
had assumed the aspect of a ma-
jor political, possibly revolution-
ary, movement, and the authori-
ties were reaching out for commun-
ist agitators whom they saddled
with the blame for the disturbance.
Some 200 were reported under ar-
rest.
Meanwhile, the strike had spread
to other large cities and virtually
every section of the country.
200,000 Walk Out.
In Barcelona 200,000 factory
workers walked out and rioting
closed most of the stores, theaters,
and cafes. The police had no time
today to discuss the number of
casaulties, but it appeared certain
a score or more persons had been'
injured.
The university was ordered closed
when students joined the rioting.
Trolley cars were shoved from the
tracks, paving blocks were piled
across the right of way, and some
cars were burned before the crews
joined the strike.

Approval of the deferred rushing system drafted by a special
student committee to supplement the deferred residence and pledg-
ing regulations passed last year by the Senate Committee on Student
Affairs, was given yesterday afternoon by the Interfraternity council.
The action, which was nearly unanimous, came after a consider-
ation of three plans presented by the Judiciary committee of the
council following its revision of certain sections of the plan proposed
by the student sub-committee of the Senate committee.
The three plans differed in the methods for holding rushing
engagements during the first semester, or orientation period. 'The
one adopted provides for two "open houses" and dinners once each
week during the last seven or eight weeks of the semester. Several
minor changes were also made in the plan.

posal were incorporated into the
