pert skill and steady shooting to
come within 5 of the par "A for
eighteen holes. The low qualifying
score in 1919 was 159 for thirty-six
holes.
The course. 6.707 yards long, is set
at 81 strokes out and the same num-
Der coming in for par. The longest
tee to cup. while the shortest is the
thirteenth. 164 yards. On the fair
ways one finds a continuous chain
of bunkers. some elevate. while most
of the greens are bunkered and
trapped to perfection. leaving only
small openings for the approach.
Faulty tee shots are costly, for the
player who tops a drive or mis-
judges distance is certain to find
himself in the rough. where the go
ing is hard.
A few of the holes are Of the elbow
and dog leg variety. with uphill and
downhill drives necessary. The
twelfth hole Is conceded the most
difficult. Here one finds a small
opening to the fairway, which is
dotted with bunkers and traps and
fianked by deep rough. while the
green approach is tricky to the ex-
treme.

S1On can now be StateQ IN Qeta1k
4 First Of all. the tremendous growth
~ conference athletics in the past
Few years seemed to demand the Gre
alton of some centralized authority
This fall approximately 1000 students
will compose the varsity squads in
the big ten. They will be chosen
from $4,000 students representing an
alumni body of many times that num-
Der. Conference foot ball teams will
draw considerably over a million dol
lars at the gate and it is difficult to
estimate how many persons will fol-
low the scores.
Directors Took Lead.
The directors of physical education
at the ten institutions are all prac-
tical athletic coaches and were first
known as athletic coaches before they
were rated physical directors. They
are Howard Jones. Iowa, foot ball:
Fred Luehring. Minnesota, basket
ball: Tom Jones. Wisconsin. track;
Alonzo Stagg, Chicago, foot ball;
Dana Evans, Northwestern, basket
ball; E. o. Stiehm. Indiana, foot ball:
i. w. st. John. Ohio State. base ball;
Nelson Kellogg. Purdue, track, and
George Huff, Illinois, base ball.
These men did not wait for col
lege presidents and faculty represen-
tatives to force the issue. but be-
cause it was their responsibility they
to safeguard and promote athletics
The growth of professional foot ball
and basket ball has proved menace
to college athletics. and it was rec
SgniZed that more stringent en-
,forcement of the amateur rules was
demanded
What He Is Facing.
This being so, the ten physical di-
rectors. as a primary step, decided
upon the appointment of commits
Sioner of athletics whose duties, as
fhey are understood by Maj. Griffith
himself and by those who appointed
him, may be set forth as follows:
A-The commissioner will investi-
gate conditions in the big ten uni
verSities, and will assist the direc-
tors in determining methods of ham
ding conference problems.
Bile will strive to eradicate evils
existing in big ten athletics by assist
ing the directors in enforcing the
rules.
C-For the most part competitive
athletics are doing a vast amount Of
good. and yet each year after the foot
ball season there is talk of abolishing
or curtailing of athletics. This, be-
cause the public hears SO much more
about the evils of college sport than
the aims and values of those sports. 1t
will be the duty of the commissioner
to carry on an educational campaign
ana point out the purposes and bene-
fits of athletics.
D-The spirit of competition is some
times carried too far and a feeling of
hostility is developed between coach
es and between schools This dis
gusts the public and creates enemies
of intercollegiate sport. The western
conference proba bly, leads in dmn-
ishing this evil. A few years ago

moter wanted us to box on a per-

it that way.
So. rather than lose the bout for
me, Williams finally consented to
accept So per cent of the gross
receipts, out of which he guar

Despite all the storm. as it We're.

From a financial standpoint it

we hardly had enough money left to
cover my training expenses.

ened to call off the bout, disappoint

hand-picked referee, Barney Riley, of

the third man in the contest.
OF course. we had to agree to
this demand. There was no way
out. We shook hands, ODowd
and l. and the bout finally was on
after had done a lot OF unneces-
sary worrying. The very first
clinch we went into Mike butted
me over the left eye. causing n
rather serious injury.
My best punch is a right-hand
cross, but I was unable to use this
mitt. as l was forced to stay on the
defensive, using that glove in guard
ing the left side of my face. O'Dowd
continued to tear at my injured eye
and he never missed a chance to butt.
1 would have liked to complain to
the referee, but, knowing Mullins
brought him all the way from Albany,
1 felt it would be useless. All through
this caused me a lot Of worriment,
as 1 thought the referee might stop
the contest, thus giving O'Dowd a
technical knockout.
Mike kept coming so aggressive1y
and directed his attack at my split
eye so consistently that I was so
busy protecting myself I was unable
to do any offensive work. He never
stopped ripping and tearing for
twelve rounds. I will willingly ad-
nit it was the hardest fight Of my
career and have been in with Jack
Britton four times, Ted (Kid) Lewis
twice. Harry Greb three times and
most of the good welters and middle
weights in America.
After the bout half n dozen
stitches were necessary to close
the wound over my left eye.
Just now I have one ambition-even
though it wouldn't mean anything,
and that is to get Mike O'Dowd in
the ring again - this time with a
neutral referee, and promise to give
him as bad licking as he gave me,
or I might say, a worse trouncing,
like the one 1 handed the middle
weight champion of the world,
Johnny Wilson. recently.
