Strife* It Rich.
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.
Pedley went on playing polo sod
seUIng real estate. . *
’ Mrs. Dudley went an being the wife
of T. H. Dudley, assy or of Santa
Monica.
Time went on. and apparently the
luncheon pact about that mtlUoa dol
lars wsa forgotten. Year after year

waa highly auccmful Not only did
Mias Hollins present Mrs. Dhdley and
Pedley with a chack for $25,000 each
at the height of the party, but the
cream of northern California society
was there to see It A classy Jazz
band plnyed the most provoking of
music. 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!”

This group. It Is reported, coatrib-
or ad a capital of $MM0A moat ef
which was promptly spent for the par-
chase of governa*nt permits. 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.
Eric Pedley and Mrs. Dudley sent
message* of congratulation to the mil
lionaire playmate.
Instead of tb# tmoal conventional
reply. Miss Hollins wired sack as fo6

Pacific Coast’* Oldest
Apple Tree Cared For
Longview, Wash.—The Pacific coast’s
oldest apple tree has received medical
treatment and a spring tonic. Fer
tilizer was planted at tbe bottom'of
the ancient bearing fruit tree, while
something akin to filling a tooth was
accomplished In a cavity of a large
limb.
A fair crop of apples Is expected
from the aged tree, which was planted
In 1828 by fur traders.
