Public Golf Links
Hunts Lost
ii Acres

Lost, strayed or stolen-four-
teen acres of land at Oakland,
CAL, part of the municipal golf
course there.
Renewed hope of the finding
and restoration to the municipal
links of the fourteen acres dis
covered several months ago to
be mysteriously missing is held
by the members of the Oakland
board of playground directors,
according to a dispatch from that
city, following the receipt by the
board of a letter from George H.
Wilhelm, vice president and gen.
eral manager of the East Bay
Water Company.
Wilhelm wrote that the engi-
neering department of the water
company is checking up the sur
veys of the land in proximity to
the municipal links and if it is
found that the missing acreage is
included in the holdings of the
company it will be gladly re-
stored.

ROCKY KANSAS TO USE
WHITES CHECK IN Def

NEW YORK. March 2.-Eaving
lambasted Charley White out of his
proposed battle with Benny Leon
ard for the championship, Rocky
Kansas now proposes to make
White pay for a challenge that will
be entered today for a bout with
the titleholder.
The def will be made by Dan
Rogers, manager OF Kansas, who
will take the $4,000 check he re-
ceived from White for the latter's
failure to make the lightweight
limit and post it with the New
York Athletic Commission as the
customary guarantee that is sup
posed to accompany all challenges.

HE knocked me out twice.
Once it was luck, but the next
time II wasn't. Big and strong
as . bull. was JefH. YEO had
no chance with him In clinch.
One hug and your breath was
gone. He'd lean on you In the
clinches and tire you out. And
that left> hand! That terrible
left! It kept coming at you all
the time. There was no rest.
It kept coming like the boom
OF q yacht. There was no way
to stop 1t.
Round after round he'd fol-
low you with that big left hook
ready to pound you. He didn't
iab with 1t. He sort Of ripped.
Oh, 1t was like q ton Of iron.
He ripped It to the body with
terrible effect. He hit me on
top Of the head with it In our
second fight in Frisco and the
glove broke just the way o
hand grenade breaks. There
was nothing left Of II but the
padding on the wrist and the
laces. They had to stop the
fight for two minutes until he
got another glove on and I'll
give you my word I didn't
stop seeing double until the
two minutes were up.
ut just killed me, that's all.
He was q terrible man, hard
to hurt and hard to keep away.
