pert players before officers Of the West.

Jock Hutchison, local professional, who
is British open golf champion Laurie
Ayton, of Evanston. another Scotch
professional, and Chick Evans. for

New York, Sept. 1.-Brookline
will see more than $50 amateur golf
specialists teeing OF for the amateur
championship the end of this week.
There are among them old timers,
newcomers and a sufficient
sprinkling of internationalists to
make the event of special interest
The course is in far better condition
than when the last amateur was
held here.
At that time the greens we're over
keen and many a man was using
his mashie for putter before the
finish. This time the green's were
just about right a week ago and
thanks to the rain will probably
remain so.
Guilford, who is the champion,
and Bobbie Jones, after his splen-
did work in the open, are looked
upon with great favor as also is
Chick Evans. The reports are that
Ouimet has come back and is going

course to his liking years agosas he

ticle of ball and the Islanders could
solve his delivery for only five safe
blows.
The Bunnies' first run should
never have materialized. In the
third inning Hoeft trapped Dixon
off first base, but he reached sec
ond safely because no one covered
the sack in time. There were two
out at the time and the side should
have been retired. Then McCau-
ley gave Speas another chance
when he failed to gather in his easy
pop-foul and a minute later the
Bunny manager cracked one
against the left field fence for two
sacks and Dixon romped home
with the run. The other Cedar
Rapids score developed in the
fourth frame when Potts rode the
hoss-hide over the left field boards
for homer.
The locals had several chances
to put runs across but the old
punch was lacking. In the second
inning, with one away, Swenson
drove the apple to left field for a
pair Of sacks, but was out when lie
overslid the bag.
The islanders best chance to
score came in the sixth inning.
Norton opened the inning with a
single. Potts then robbed Finn of
a possible triple by gathering in
his drive near the right field foul

CONFIDENCE IN
FIGHT COMMISH
PUT ON SCALES
Responsibility Wills
jackson, Fiasco De-
tern1ines Weight.
BY FAIR PLAY.

\COpyTlSuL, 1SII, ny ne ATSuS.l
New York, Sept. Public con-
fidence in the wisdom and judgment
of the New York state boxing
commission was put on the scales
today. By the manner in which
Chairman Muldoon and his asso-
ciates fix responsibility for the re-
cent Wills-Jackson fiasco folks will
know how much faith they can here
after put in these men who are the
! final arbiters Of boxing in this
state.
Chairman Muldoon and his col
leagues are really the protectors Of
the fight public. Their investiga-
tior into the palpably false impress
sion which Tut Jackson's press
agents gave as to the horrendous
fighting attributes of the Washing
ton Courthouse, farmer-fighter
should be thorough and their final
judgment decisive.
That somebody literally got away
with murder in touting the Wills
Jackson go was made apparent
over in Ebbets field. 1t wasn't much
worse, it is true, than what has
been gotten away with in all of the
recent so-called fights which Wills
has had arranged for him in an CT
fort to work up frenzied call from
the public that Dempsey and Wills
settle the who-who argument.
Wills undoubtedly is quite a sec
ond class fighter. Its doubtful,
! however, whether he could last
three rounds with Dempsey. In
stead of staging a lot of perfectly
obvious setups like those which
have taken place in the past few
weeks, Wills should be made to
show what or how much he has
against Brennan or Miske or both,
before his press agents try to work
up a demand for a Dempsey Wills
bout. If Wills should show well in
two or three fights against anything
but dubs, the possibility of match
that Dempsey will turn to GER
tainty without the necessity of four
ply press agenting.
Incidentally it is to be hoped that
i the precocious and hard hearted
city slickers from such pert places
as Dayton, Washington Courthouse,
Cleveland and Columbus, will. stop
their pernicious work Of taking adj
vantage of our ingenious young
fight promoters here, who accord
ing to Bill Mccartney, who handled
this end of the Jackson-Wills battle,
were terribly misled as to how much
Jackson weighed, and what a whale
he was said to be in the ring. III
