GOLF STAR GETS FORTUNE IN OIL 1 ' * V # Persuades Friends to Invest in Leases and They Strike It Rich. * Santa Cruz, Cullf,?A "grand time" wuh had at the I'utwilempo Country club the other day when Minn Murlon 11ol11iih, former wornun'H national golf champion, tevd off and drove u pulr of $'2.1,(XX) checks right Into the hand* of Mr*. T. H. Dudley, the former national tannin douhlea champion, and Eric I'edley, reputed to be one of the beat |)olo players In the United State*. IiJ was this way: Seven years ago Miss Hoi I Ins, Mrs. Dudley and I'edley enjoyed only so-so incomes. One day, down in Santa Durham, the trio were enjoying a luncheon. The talk turned to finance. Sigh for a Million. "I wish I had a million," I'edley sighed. "So do I," Mrs. Dudley sighed;.' "So do I." Miss llollitiH sighed. Ensued a silence. "Well," Miss Ilolllns remarked after a spell of musing, "I'll tell you what let's do?the first one of us who makes n million must give the other two $25,(XX) each. Are you on?" "We are," Chorused Mrs. "Dudley and I'edley. ? Whereupon the trio arose and went their ways. Miss Hollies went on playing golf. I'edley went on playing polo and selling real estate. Mrs. Dudley went on being the wife of T. II. Dudley, mayor of Santa Monica. Time went on, and apparently the luncheon pact about that million dollars was forgotten. Year titter year flitted by. Miss Hollies liked California so well that she sol<1 real estate between golf matches to such good effect that she had a bankroll sulliclcntly corpulent to open the I'asatlenipo Country club near Santa Cruz. Important Little Chat. Then, one day. Mi>s Hollies had a chat with ("nl l'ranklvn It. Kenney, who was president of the Marland Oil company of California. When the Marland directors were unable to interest other oil companies in drilling on the Kettleinan oil fields and were on the point of relifupiishing their tier mits to the government. Miss Hollies and Iter brother. MeKim l[n!l!ns, had another chat with Colonel Kenney. "If I can't raise t he?uioticy in three weeks we're sunk." Colonel Kenney mourned. "Leave It to me," .Miss Hollies re piled. "Come with me, brother." The next day Miss Hollies ami her brother, mcjjnbers of a prominent New York family, were on their way to the Ktnpire cil.v. Heroin New 1 old, Miss Hollies forgot all about sociot.v and" golf. She turned saleswoman <viih both barrels.
