Evans Wins the Western
Golf Title

HOMEWORK COUNTRY CLUB.
FLOSSMORE. Ill, July 31-Charles
Evans Jr. of Exmoor, barely Is years
of age, the youngest player of 12s
starters, won the western amateur golf
championship today, defeating Albert
Seekel of Riverside 1 up in an exciting
SO hole match.
Evans at the end of the first IS
holes was up. In the afternoon
Seckel reduced Evans lead to 1 up
with the assistance of penalization
by Referee Bendelow. Had it not been
for this Evans would have won the
match on the seventeenth green up
and 1 to play. This; was the first pen
atty ever inflicted by an official in a
Western golf association event.
The incident leading to penalization
occurred on the eleventh. green of the
afternoon play after Evans had holed
out in four. Seekers ball lay within
half a foot of the hole and as Evans
reached down to take. his ball out he
knocked Seekers ball away, thus con-
ceding him the putt and half in four.
Referee Bendelow awarded the hole to
Seckel because of Evans disregard Of
the Western golf association rules pro-
hibiting the conceding of the puts.
The same thing had been done in the
morning round with Bendelow present
but he had apparently not noticed it.
