Tender Disqualified on
Claim Of Foul by Pitts
Quaker Made a Punching Bag
of Opponent Throughout.

After flooring Charley Pitts In the
second round and battering him all
over the ring UP to the seventh round.
Lew Tender, the Quaker southpaw,
was disqualified on claim of foul by
the Australian last night at the Broad
way Exhibition Association. The blow
that Pitts claimed as low was a well
directed left hand smash to the Dit OF
the stomach right above the Austria
llan's belt line. After landing the body
blow, Tender followed with another
well timed blow TO the jaw, this time
sending Pitts to the canvas. AS soon
as Pitts was floored the timekeeper
and the referee. Dick Griffin, started
TO count over the fallen boxer. When
the officials had counted eight Pitts's
seconds jumped into the ring and after
ten had been tolled off they carried
their man to his corner. after which a
cry OF foul was raised.
Tender had an easy time with his
opponent throughout the contest. The
Quaker lightweight made Pitts look like
novice In every one OF the rounds
Tender caused Pitts TO miss nearly
every blow he started. Pitts scored two
or three good blows during the en-
counter.
In the seni-windup OF ten rounds Nick
Foley OF East New York won over
Sammy Stearns. In the other bouts
that were scheduled for six rounds Jack
Elliott and Jenny Cancro fought draw
and Young Hurley stopped Artie Downs
in the third round.

CHANGE IN PLAYING
OF GOLF TOURNEY
Contestants to Cover 36 Holes
in One Day in Open
Title Event.

CHICAGO. April 10.-Important changes
were made in the plan for holding the
! national open golf championship at the
Skokie Club, Chicago. at conference to-
day between Robert A. Gardner of Chi
cago. vice-president Of the United States
Golf Association, and George Sargent
of Columbus. president, and Alec Piris
OF Chicago. secretary of the Professional
Golfers Association.
Instead of the whole field playing
eighteen holes on the first OF the usual
three days, IL was decided to split the
entrants into three equal sucnds OF
probably sevcnty-five TO one hundred
players.
The first contingent will play thirty
six holes on Monday, July 10. the sec
ond thirty-slx holes on Tuesday and the
third the like amount on Wednesday.
The best "a scores In each division win
qualify for the championship play Of
seventy-two holes.
Originally the play was to extend over
three days, July IL, 10 and IA, with an
elimination roynd OF eighteen noies on
Tuesday. This has been found all but
impossible with ever increasing fields.
Under the new arrangement. there
VIII be seventy-two or more rlayers
in the regular competition, ins.ead OF
the sixty-four who have survived the
preliminary round heretofore.
To-day's conference also considered In
formally other phases of the champion
ship. which would be international TO
larger extent than ever before. Il Is
expected. because OF the many British
and other invaders who plan to try to
wrest the crown from James Barnes of
New York.

OF the most difficult In the country.

TENNIS PROTEST A
TEMPEST IN TEAPOT
Seventh Regiment L. C.'s Ar
gument Regarding Date
Conflict Answered.

Indications are that the last has been
heard OF the protest of the Seventh
Regiment Tennis Club against the date
conflict recently between the middle
States championship In Philadelphia and
the national indoor title event in the
local armory and against the action Of
Vincent Richards in dcfaulting his
match In the latter tournament. The
regimental officials appear to have
judged the situation rather hastily and
to have protested before making sure Of
their facts. The controversy has proved
to be a tempest In teapot.
Had the Seventh Regiment Tennis
Club committee Investigated they would
have learned that the middle States
event had been scheduled originally for
the previous week, but that the commit
tee had been notified at the last minute
by the owners of the exhibition build
ing, where the courts wero laid out, that
the dates would have to be changed /;
that, in fact, the middle States officials
would have to accept March 80, 81 and
April or no dates at all.
AS for protesting Vincent Richards's
default, the facts show that Richards's
entry in the national event had been
only tentative; that his entry had been
accepted by telephone, which was con-
trary to the rules, and that the Seventh
Regiment Tennis Club therefore had no
right TO include him in the draw In the
first place.
Under the circumstances the national
executive committee will have no diff
Guilty in disposing Of the Seventh Regi-
ment Tennis Clubs protest. They need
but point out that the middle States
event could not have been held at any
other time than the three days finally
selected. and that the national title
tourney had every opportunity to attract
the tennis stars before the change in
the middle States date was announced.

NEW $4,000 STAKE
NO AID TO The TURF
So Says August Belmont in
Commenting on Kentucky
Clubs Proposal.

August Belmont, chairman OF the
Jockey Club, said yesterday that he
didn't believe the proposed $4,000 stake
for three year-olds at Latonia in June
would s,rve the best interests OF the
turf.
1T Is to be deplored that the various
racing associations IL the East Mary
land and Kentucky" said Mr.. Belmont,
do not cooperate for the best interests
OF the turf in giving an intelligent Sc
quence OF stakes, both as regards dis
tances and values, so that the scientific
ally gauged leading horses may be
tagged In turf history for the breeder.
II happens sometimes. though rarely.
that horse like Man o. War so out
classes his contemporaries that this ac-
curate process of elimination is not es-
sential.
Intelligent competition and rivalry IN
stakes OF Traditional interest is one
tbirg. but crowding conspicuous events
upon horse owners and trainers smacks
q little of the commercial. and reminds
ore OF the confu. ed state of rnl:d OF the
spectator when lie attends a three ring
circus. Time is not given owners and
trainers to At their hors g properly. The
long Journeys and unsatisfactory trans
pcrtation facilities must be talSer into
consideration also.
This proposed race ts not Il stake
with history. 1t Is only a big purse.
and IL II must be given at all the au-
tuma after the three-year-olds have full
filed their regular engagements is the
date for 1t. 1t would then have real
and useful meaning"
