He did exactly six strokes better,
and il was not only through the use
OF his putter, but through exception
ally fine play with wood and iron that
nut him out in front. In fact, he
missed more puts than he used to miss
in the old days, but the rest OF his
game came to his rescue.
Travers won for two reasons: First,
because he showed ability TO play
steady, consistent golf; second. be-
cause when in trouble he showed rare
ability to play out. II one shot failed
he had another TO make good the deficit
and close the gap.
There was one touch at the finish
that might be recorded. As the crowd
swarmed for him with wild cheer and
nicked him up, he handed his putter,

DUNDEE SETTLES
OLD SCORES WITH
LEACH CROSS
johnny OutClasseS East
Side Boxer in Bout at
EbbetS Field.
LANDS SIX CLEAN
PUNCHES TO ONE
Freddie Welsh Has Easy Time
with Lustig-Big Crowd
Sees Matches.

Johnny Dundee paid of all his
scores with Leach Cross last night at
Ebbets Field in a manner so decisive
that not even the East Sider's friends
could doubt. In eight Of the ten
rounds Dundee boxed his man into
kinks and landed at a rate Of six clean
punches 10 one.
Then, as the bout wore along Johnny
stood in front Of his man guard down
and for fully half minute allowed
him TO hook and swing with might and
main, making no EFFORT TO counter, but
cOntentlng himself with pulling MS
head out of the way and allowing the
punches TO whistle over his head.
Again he stood up jabbing with his
left and doing a buck and wing dance.
1t may be said that as a terpsichorean
artist Dundee is a wonderful boxer.
Cross once said that Jem Discoll hit
him oftener than any other man ever
had. Late last night he was willing 20
revise that statement somewhat.
In the third and fourth rounds Leach
earned a possible shade. AT least he
held his own. But in the other rounds
he got one Of the most artistic lacings
that il has ever been his misfortune
to come by. Dundee stayed away at
long range and making use Of every
last ounce of his wonderful speed
handled the situation with the greatest
ease.
Dundee was versatile. too. In the
opening rounds he worked q smashing
right hand hook to the body that car
ried every ounce OF his strength. IL
Jared Cross through and through and
worked his guard down. This, OF
course was as Johnny had planned.
and switching mis- attack like lightning
he painted a crimson sunset on
Leach's face.
Cross did not take all the beating.
There were times when he landed his
Justly celebrated right. Dundee wore
in and out before him and managed TO
keep the nerve centres out Of range.
Twice he was badly shaken, apparently,
but never did he stop.
At the same show Freddie Welsh
added to his rapidly increasing bank
account by giving Johnny Lustig a
course of lessons.
One round TO a lesson-ten lessons
the course. But the crowd didn't like
the exhibition, and many uncouth per-
sons shouted for the boys to fight. They
forgot, evidently, that Welsh IS cham
pion of the world The very idea.
One fan actually demanded that
Charley Chaplin be sent into the ring.
| II was quite distressing, and then they
/ whistled soulful waltz songs. Yes, and
/ some of the crowd walked out before
/ the fifth lesson was over.

Having abandoned his idea of com

Although the visit was an an in.

were accorded the Secretary when he
arrived.

SOLEMN FEASTS NEAR

Catholics to Mark All Saints and

PRIESTS MAY SAY 3 MASSES.
What All Saints Day Stands for in the
Church.

Catholics and Episcopalians will
celebrate on Monday and Tuesday
next two of the most important feasts
Feast of All Saints the first day and
the Feast of All Souls on the follow
ing day Today being the vigil of

morrow. meats are forbidden at all
meals and fasting must be observed.

all members of the church being
obliged to attend mass as on Sunday.
Tuesday is not a feast of obligation.
but many Catholics attend the masses
to pray for their dead. The month Of
November is devoted especially by the
church to the souls in purgatory and
masses are said daily and prayers for
departed recited at all services.
BY a special permission granted
some months ago by Pope Benedict
XIV all priests are allowed TO cele-
brate three masses on Tuesday next.
This is an innovation the only other
day heretofore that priest could say
Christmas Day. II is expected that
those who were unaccustomed to hear
mass on All Souls Day will remain
for the three masses in their parish
church
Besides the masses on Monday and
Tuesday. there will be sermons and
majority of churches a novena will
be said each nine days of the month
of November the names of those to
be especially remembered being plac-
ed in an urn on the altar.
The Eve of All Saints Day will be
celebrated in ST. Anne's Church to
morrow at the Vesper service.
In this festival of All Saints the
church honoTs saints not otherwise
given being because we cannot par
ticularly commemorate every one Of
those saints in whom Gods graces
have been eminent, for that would
be too heavy a burden and because,
in those particular feasts which we
do celebrate, we may justly be
thought to have omitted some of our
duty through infirmity or negligence +.
therefore Holy Church appoints this
day in caLnmemoration of the Saints
in general. The festival was insti-
tuted in 610, when the Pantheon at
Rome was consecrated as a Christ
ian Church.

PRESIDENT WILSON HERE
WITH HIS F|ANCEE
Accompanied by Mrs. Gait, Her
Brother and Two Secret

MOTORED FROM WASHINGTON.
Visit Not Official But a Little Quiet
Trip---Party Took Luncheon at
Carvel Hall.

President Wilson motored here from
Washington this afternoon, and was ac-
companied by his fiancee Mrs. Gait.
ner brother, of Washington and two
secret service men.
Upon their arrival the party went
Immediately to Carvel Hall where
they took luncheon.
The Presidents visit was not an off.
cial one. but was intended to be a quiet
little side trip out of Washington. by
way of recreation.
The news of the President and his
fisncee being in Annapolis was soon
noised about and Carvel Hall was the
centre of attraction.
After luncheon the party took an
automobile ride through the streets of
the city, and we're recognized by but
few people.
On Main street opposite Francis a
gentleman spying the Presidents car
exclaimed why there's President
Wilson and Immediately there was a
rush of pedestrians to see the Ma
tion's Chief. The car passed up Fran
els street to the State House.
1t was expected the President and
Mrs. Gait would see the game this aft
ernoon. especially as the Secretary of
the Navy is also here.
While at luncheon Prof. Paul Da.
shell waited upon the President at
Carvei Hall and invited him and Mrs.
Gait to witness the game. but the
President gracioasly declined. say
ing he was only here on a little trip
and he would not go into the Naval
Academy this trip.
There were two automobiles in the
party, one with the President, Mrs.
Gait and her brother. the other with
three Secret Service men.
The party left the car at Francis

through the State House.
They left here about 2.30 for BaIti.

MIDSHIPMAN DISMISSED.
Charged With Reprehensible Conduct
at Naval Academy.

II was announced at the Naval
Academy this morning that Midship-
man Edmund j. Lowry, of Rhode ISL
and, a member of the second class,
had been dismissed from the Acad-
emy on charges growing out of the
loss of sum of money by RIidship-
man William j. Luth, a classmate
while the ships OF the practice squad
ron We're lying OFF Annapolis this
past summer
II is stated however. that Midship-
man Lowry was not dismissed for
larceny, but for reprehensible con
duct in connection with the affair.
Lowry was accused of the theft and
denied it, but consented to give Mid
shipman Luth the sum of $14 which
the latter had lost. He claims that
he did this under coercion and be-
cause he hoped TO prevent the dis
grace Of having it known that he was
accused of stealing.
It is understood that the authorf-
ties have not gone TO the length of
declaring him guilty of taking Nthe
money, but that it was felt that his
conduct in making payment Of the
money under such circumstances.
made it better for him to leave the
service.
Young Lowry was recommended for
for dismissal by the superintendent
of the Naval Academy, and he APP
pealed. A court of inquiry upheld
the action of the superintendent, and
his separation from the service fol-
lowed
