Rants Crus, Calif.—A “grand time” was had at the Pssatlempo Country dob the other day when Miss Marlon Hollins, former woman’s national golf champion, teed off and drove a pair of 125,000 checks right Into the hands of Mrs. iT. H. Dudley, the former national tennis doubles champion, and Eric Pedley, reputed to be one of the best polo'; players In the United States. It was this way: Seven years ago Miss Hollins, Mrs. Dudley and Pedley enjoyed only so-so incomes. One day, down In Santa Barbara, the trio were enjoying a luncheon. The talk turned to finance. Sigh for a Million. “I wish I had a million,” Pedley sighed. “So do I,” Mrs. Dudley sighed. “So do I,” Miss Hollins sighed. En sued a silence. “Well,” Miss Hollins remarked after a spell of musing, “I’ll tell you what let's do-*-the first one of us who makes s million must give the other two $25,- 000 each. Are you on?” “We are,” chorused Mrs. Dudley sod Pedley. Whereupon the trio arose and went their wsy a Mias Hollins went on playing golf.

There were- speeches to which nobody paid the slightest bit of atten tion. And to cap the climax, the en tire party, led by Miss Hollins, sallied forth at midnight to play a round of golf. The decorative motif of the banquet table was a mixture of polo players, oil derricks and a miniature golf course. The dignified Dudley Care we. cultured art patron, who combines his hobby with the business of operating several garbage collecting companies In northern California, was the target for good-natured fun. ^ Large garbage cans were distributed about the banquet hall, while from the wall hung this sign: “I don’t know what the neighbors are. but they sure have swell swill!” Miss Hollins* brother.

Camt the day. as the movies say. when the Hollins-Inspired stockholders read with pop eyes that oil had bean struck on their properties and how! Miss Hollins gloated one little gloat as follows: “I told you so!” Then things began to pop In earnest. First, the stockholders. Including Miss Hollins, received a cool Jl.000.- OdH from the Pacific Western Oil cor poration for a half Interest. Second, the Honolulu Consolidated and Stan dard Oil company' forked over $9.- 500,000 more for the capital stock of the Kettleman Oil corporation, ns Miss Hollins and her co-stockholders were known In the business world. That made a total of $10,500.000—and Miss Hollins and her friends were ready for the melon cutting. Here Is how the melon was sliced: Miss Hollins, $2,500,000. Harold E. Talbott. Jr., $1,500,000. McKIm Hollins. $750,000. Payne Whitney estate. $500,000. Walter P. Chrysler, $500,000. Samuel McRoberts. $250,000. Her Greatest “Birdie." There were other stockholders who "cut In,” hat the figures just quoted show the principal winners In the most spectacular “hlrdle” ever scored by Mias Hollins.
