L. Mcnamara, New York, one-time
Massachusetts open champion. finished
first and second, respectively, in the
seventy-two hole medal play golf tour
nament for the War Relief Fund at the
Country Club, Brookline, yesterday.
kerrigan and Mcnamara, after their
first half at the Brae Burn Country
Club, were expected to finish among the
first three. Kerrigan, with two rounds,
had scored l52, while Mcnamara was
159. Kerr'gan scored a 76 for his round.
while Mcnamara gained four shots by
taking 70. When the third round had
been completed Kerrigan had scored
22s, while Mcnamara was tied at 231
with George Bowden. of the Tedcsco
Country Club, of Swampscott
In the last round Kerrigan had gained
another stroke after siXty-three holes
had been played. Mcnamara was four
strokes to the bad at the sixty-fifth
hole. He gained two strokes on Kerri-
gan at the SEVENTEEN hole. Kerrigan
got stroke back on the seventy-frst
hole, only to lose two strokes at the
home hole. This gave Kerrigan the con-
test by margin of one shot.
George l.. Bowden. who finished in
third place, six shots behind Mcnamara,
played wonderful golf in the morning,
scoring 70.
Louis Teller, professional at the Coun-
try Club, Brookline, started in second
position, but after completing the third
round was forced to withdraw because
of bad knee, which he sustained at
Brae Burn. He gamely played thirteen
holes on the last round. however, and
did not quit until he was forced to. H's
physicians say he has water on the knee,
which means that this plucky little
Frenchman will not play up to his usual
form for several weeks.

CALLS LEONARD
GREATEST HITTER
Britton Says Benny Is Most
Dangerous Man He
Ever Met
FEARED THE "PULLIN"
BY JACK BRITTON
Former Weltrrwright Champion

The greatest punCher I ever faced
Benny Leonard You can take il from
me, and I've fought 'em all, this Benny
Leonard can hit. | have battled him
twice and | am an excellent Judge of
his hitting. If he ever had found me
unguarded II would have been curtains
for mine. To fight Leonard and do it
with any degree of success it IS excellent
advice to beginners as we'll as veterans,
and this applies to me. never to take the
eye off him. He knows all the tricks
and executes them perfectly
The secret of Leonard's great success
and | believe it was a secret, but nor
any more. is due to his wonderful and
uncanny ability to pull in" his onpo-
nent. Many believed, as | did until I
met him the second time. that Leonard
was at his best when on the attack. but
this is not true. He is the best man |
ever fought at drawing in his man. then
hitting powerfully with either hand.
Has MiddIeweight's Punch
He is only a little fellow. but he can
hit harder than any middleweIght | ever
fought. have met the best of the small
middleweights, but never tasted a harder
punch than the one delivered by Leon
ard That is the reason he is so sue
!
he has the advantage of position and
can drive home his punches with plenty
of power. accuracy and effect.
| D'd you notice how often | ran away?
! Well that was to avoid being pulled
| in" | knew that if he ever got me in
| that trap | would have TO take plenty
| of punishment before ! got free. lie
| is tricky and has this thing of pulling
in" the other fellow down to a science
| | just missed that trap on three occa-
| sions and that was when you saw me
run away. 1t was survive or perish and
! | retreated.
Hardest Fight of Career
fought Packey Mcfarland wher
Packey was at his best, but all Packe,
| had was ClevernesS without the punch
| Leonard has the cleverness and tn,
punch. Packey was just as clever al
| Benny at pulling in" the other follow
| but how much differently he treated
you than Benny. The best that Packe,
could do after he got you in that tral
was to tap you with a light jab. VIII!
| Packey couldn't break an egg with thai
punch of his.
The fight was the fastest and hardes
one in which | ever engaged. | wa
asked after the fight what round
. considered the hardest and when di
! Leonard do his best work. | merel
told my friends that every round wa
fast and tough, and that | was so bus
fighting all the time that ! didn't hav
a moment to check up which pune
was the hardest.
Crowded Leonard
If YOU followed the fight closely yo
would have noticed that l crowde
Leonard all the time. There was rea
son. It was to break the power OF nj
blows. If he ever landed with one o
his full swings it would be the end, bu
bv stepping in close l forced him I
wrap his punches about my body or mech
7 forced him to do this pretty often
I came out uninjured and felt mn
after the workout. 1t was great nigr
and fine crowd.

DECISION TO POSTPONE
AMATEUR GOLF TOURNEY
UNTIL THE FALL IS WISE
Substitution of 36-Hole Medal Play Competition for
Class Tournament Would Be Popular-Suburban
League Clubs Want Larger Representation
By WILLIAM Fl. EVANS


THE decision of the executive commit
i tee of the golf association to post.
pone the amateur competition originally
scheduled to begin today over the course
of the Philmont Country Club. and to
substitute for 1t in the fall a thirty-siX-
hole medal competition, is wise Last
year there were only few more than
the requisite number of thirty-siX en-
tered, and this year less than half that
number were willing to play. OF course
it would be farcial for that number to
play, even If there is no title involved
The next tournament. which is listed
for three days. will be the class tourna'
ment. which is scheduled for July -. 25
and 26 at the Merton Cricket Cub
While there Is no doubt that a fairly
large field will compete it might be well
right now to change the conditions and
make it a thirty-six hole affair on a
medal handicap basis The same day
the ninth annual midsummer handicap
competition will be played over the same
course.

Want Equitable Representation

The sixteen clubs pay most OF the
freight, and while it is not case OF
taxation without representation, there
ought to be n more equitable DIVISION
II is a fact that at the various events
scheduled by the golf association there
is rarely more than one member OF the
executive committee present. Ihe
others are apparently too busy to De IN
attendance.
If there is a crowd of players VINO de-
serve encouragement it Is the juniors
vet only two of the executive committee
nut in an appearance during the tourna-
ment Some of our best golfers are rep
resented in the sixteen clubs comprising
the Suburban League the entry list TOT
most of the events is largely made up OF
players from those clubs, yet OF the nine
clubs represented on the list OF officlals
and the executive committee Philmont Is
the only Suburban League club with
representative.
The bone and sinew of the golf asso-
citation at present comes largely from
these sixteen clubs and the clubs feel
that one member is a rather poor rep
resentation.

guests of Ellis \. Gimbel. their presi-

of them had ever played over the
course. No records were shattered but
all agreed that the traps and hazards
and pits and other things that catch
topped, sliced and pulled balls at Phil

man of the green committee. are not
so strenuous as the troublesome spots
at Pine Valley. A trip to Pine Valley
