terday John Nee. Bowman. president Of
the club, had another interesting state
ment to make. this belief to the effect
that he had engaged Thomas ID. Armour.
the Lothlanburn amateur, former holder
OF the French championship. to act as
golf secretary.
Armour can claim to be about the
first golf secretary I'm the United States.
for although most of the bigger clubs In
England are run by such an official the
work in this country invariably has been
split UP among the chairmen of the
various committees. Tommy's appoint-
ment. therefore, is something Of an inno-
walton.

practically since he was knee high TO a

war started seven and a half years ago.

that period. And even yet Tommy can
not be classed as Il veteran save I'm the
matter of experience.
The Dothianburn man had his first
taste of tournament competition i'm 1910.
on the Braid Hills In Edinburgh. His
next was over the same links I'm 1914.
From that year until 1919 he was too
busy to play golf. but in the latter year
he branched out, participating I'm the
Irish championship and several big
events. Coming to the United States In
1920 he went through to the last eight
OF the national amateur championship

Country Club.

In the British amateur championship at
Hoylake, Armour returned for the Amer
lean title tourney at st. Louis. He did
not get as far as the last eight this time,
being stopped by Robert A. Gardner,
who also defeated Willie Hunter. How
ever Armour has IL in him to improve
upon the record which he established
at the Engineers.

BOXING OFFICIALS
RULE IMPARTIALLY
Garden Management Compelled
to Live Up to Regulations
Of the Board.
by CHARLES r. MATHIsoN.

The insinuation that the Boxing Com
mission favors Madison Square Gar
den as against other clubs received a
knockout punch yesterday when the
Commissioners served noticed on the
Garden management that they must live
up to the rule restricting clubs to one
boxing entertainment week. The Gar
den officials were of the opinion that
they could stage two boxing programs
next week In view OF the fact that none
lis to be held this week. In accordance
with the conclusion the Garden officials
Jackson and Charlie White for next
Tuesday night. and had signed Johnny
Dundee and Joe Benjamin to box on the
following Friday.
/ The boxing solons refused to permit
the double bill and the Garden therefore
will set the Jackson White contest
ahead to February "a. while Dundee and
Benjamin will hold the center of the
stage next Friday.
The Commission yesterday disciplined
two other clubs for failure to live up
to the rules of the governing body. The
licenses of the Hunts Point Sporting
Club and the Jamaica Sporting Club
were both revoked for violation of regu-
lations. The offenses of the two clubs
relate to financial matters.
1t is evident therefore that the Box
ing Commission is not playing favorites
and is determined to make all concerned
live up to the rules.
