Prime Minister Mussolini of Italy last week chewed on a bitter-sweet contract and said a sour thanks. The contract bore the signatures of his Ambassador to the U. S. Giacomo De Martino, and Deputy Amedeo Perna, Italian dentist-politician, and the level script of George Eastman, Kodak & film tycoon. It sweetly gave $1,000,000 to the Italian Government to build and equip a dental clinic in Rome. At the same time it bitterly implied the rottenness and crookedness of Italian children's teeth.

...London and Rome gifts last week brought Mr. Eastman a distinguished visitor, Dr. Florestan Aguilar, dentist to the Spanish royal family and president of the International Dental Federation, who like the Italian Ambassador traveled to Mr. Eastman's home at Rochester.

Willing, deliberate dentist of Portland, Ore., downed courageous Oldster Egan, and Harrison ("Jimmy") Johnston kindly but firmly eliminated Francis Ouimet...
...entering the Amateur for several years, always starting well, seldom going far. In private life he is a St. Paul, Minn., broker with a big-brown-eyed wife named Betty and two children. Having gotten by Ouimet, who put him out at St. Louis in 1921, he proceeded against Dentist Willing with his square jaw set. Dr. Willing was 1 up at lunchtime. Then, aged 33, on the 33rd green, "Jimmy" Johnston won the 33rd U. S. Amateur Championship, 4 and 3. California, though it had expected a Jones final, was pleased with Champion Johnston, who politely acknowledged his good...
