mony hint that the nation might
follow in its commemoration of
those who died to preserve it. No
fault is found with those who take
advantage of the holiday for re-
creation and wholesome merry
making. 1t is requested, however,
that five minutes be given, for a
nationwide solemn observance of
the respect due to the heroes of
our country. During that brief
time the bells of the town will be
tolled, and every one within hear
ing Of them should stand uncover

all stages OF the contest and was the
winner in every round save the first,
third and sixth, the latter two being
draws and the first going to Dan
icls
Tobe landed heavily on Daniels
head and face all during the bout.
Although there was never a time dur
ing the fiesta that either fighter was
in any apparent danger Of a knock
out, II was a MKT affair from the
first tap of the gong until the clos
ing round. Daniels put up stiff
fight and landed a number Of telling
blows on Roach's head, but they
seemed to just tantalize the fighting
Tobe and cause him to come back
all the fresher
on account of the house being only
about two-thlrds full, il was decided
before the contest that the winner was
to take all of the gate receipts. This
was another incentive for the prin-
clpals TO fight hard. Roach is i'm
proving wonderfully as a fighter and

play which began yesterday and
ended late today jerome d. Trayers
of Upper Mont Clair, \. j., won the
title with d splendid score of 297
strokes.
Trayers has won four national anna
tour and five metropolitan as well
as several other important golf
championships, but his hearts desire
was gratified when he added the
open" to his long list of victories.
There was no fluke or flaw in the
quality of golf which the winner dis
played during the week. lie won his
honors clcycrly from a field of "A Of
the best professionals and leading
amateur golfers i'm this country. The
competition was international in
character, although the European
war had prevented Nardon, Ray and
several other English and Scotch eX-
perts from coming to take part.
Travers played steadily all through
the two-day test, and while he made
mistakes at times they were i'm greater
Fart quickly rectified by clever recOv-
cries. In the final round today Trayers
knew that he had a hard task to beat

None of the other prominent anna

won the open event two years ago
after playing off brilliant tie with
Vardon and Ray at BroOkllne, Mass,
