SPAIN'S "SUPPORT TO ITALY ;" 1NORAL": Recent •news leads. us to believe that reports that Spain . is already in the- axis camp are. doubtful. The elaborate .celebration• attending Italian Foreign Minister Count Mane's' recent visit to Spain was more an' indication of Franco' gratitude for Italian help during the civil war than an lndication of Ills willingness to sign an ironclad military agreement. Since Ciano's return Italian diplomats have con - tided to intimates that about the: best now hoped for is "moral sup- port" in case of war, and 'a work• able trade agreement which' would insure Italy raw materials. fl THE BRITISH WAY: Lord Mang - ham, British Lord .'Chancellor, and Lady Maugham arrived in.

GOLFER Maybe it's the , heat, but' this seems to be the time of the . year for all screwball bets and screwy_ contests. The latest of these cur- rent Cut -ups, which - should be of interest to anglers and golfers, consisting of a contest in which Dave Reddick, Ontario all-round casting champion, pitted his artis- tryy with. the rock and reel against the prowess of Stanley. Smith, golfer.- • ' ' ' The occasion for the unique ex- periment was the Montreal Elec- trotypers and Engravers ' annual golf field day at .the St. Johns, 'Quebec, golf' course. The plans • called for a eohtest• between Red - dick and the winner of the low gross in the tourney' in a five -hole match .under the rules and'4condi- tions outlined below, At'first it looked likeka. very in- teresting contest. Stanle Smith, who won the low gross honours, is • a pretty fair golfer while Reddick has »cast over' 280 feet in competi- tion and, when there is no wind prevailing, uatraiiy ,can a'Verttge 240 feet per cast. Unfortunately, rain which swept the Montreal district forceda halt to the odd match after only two holes had been played, each man winning one. Roddick used a baitcasting outfit. and a % .ounce plug. •,iiia. casts pn. the fairways• were measured to the' point where the plug stopped moving and o• the greens where the plug struck the green. •'It was ,decided that if -he hit within one ::foot of the ♦cu■ it Would . be consiti' 49.. `l.1`.Fec�'ri.• caster an extra stroke while regu- • lar. golf ,rules governed Mr.:Smith's• ' activities with theone exception that he. too, could consider the ball "in" if' it rolled 'within one foot of the hobs. Iieddick's caddy car ried etwo extra rods which he used. • •for accuracy casts when within striking distance of the green. The golfer conceded the first ,hole to the • baitcaster when his . ball bounced into therough on his ' third 'stroke. Reddick, hit the . pin on his fourth cast, although ,the • wind had greaetly affected his ac=•.• curacy. The hole was 152 yards, CRIPPLING BLOW.
