1S-hole matches, played in a drizzle
of rain over the Phoenix country
club course in the mi-finals of the
Arizona state amateur golf tourna-
ment today, decided the principals
in the finals match tomorrow in which
the skill of 16-year-old Phoenix
student, Bobbie Goldwater, will be
matched with that of Fred Bar
rows, contender for the champion-
ship of the, southwest last year. Kim
Bannister, who won the title last
year was eliminated from the play
today in the second round when
Barrows did brilliant work on the
last two holes after being one down
on the sixteenth. A birdie on the
seventeenth, and perfect driving OF
the eighteenth, gave him the match,
a up To win his way to the finals.
Goldwater defeated Tom Dunbar, Jr.,
medalist OF the tournament in 20
holes, both playing exceptionally
STEADY golf. Barrows took his match
in the semi-finals from Paul Ben
nett, S and 4. The other two
matches played in the second round
of the championship flight were sim
ilarly close. Dunbar defeated Hugh

DOUGLAS HIGH

pickles" snappy, clever musical
comedy that has been selected as one
of the best of the season, will be pre-
sented by the Douglas high school stu,
dents at the Grand theatre Friday, De-
cember IT, The scores will be fur
Inished by the Elks orchestra and all
the characters will be taken and the
musical numbers rendered by local
talent Proceeds of the show will be
used to defray expenses Of sending the
high school glee clubs, quartets, solo
lists and orchestra to Tucson to partici-
pate in the three day interscholastic
contest to be held in April.
The play consists of three acts and
more than 20 persons will take part
in it. The musical numbers will be di-
rected by Miss Anna Bell Driskill, mu-
steal director for the Douglas schools;
the dancing will be under the direc-
ton of Miss Irma Dalton and the dra-
MATES will be directed by Miss Ora
Parsons. 1t is probable that a chill
dren's matinee will be given in the
afternoon.
The high honors won by the Douglas
high school in the interscholastic con-
test last spring demonstrates that
there is plenty of talent among the
students. The annual contest is doing
more than any other one thing to de-
velop music in this section of the
state. 1t is expected that the pro-
ceeds from the play will enable all the
musical organizations of the Douglas
high school to enter this contest.
The people of Douglas are asked to
help toward the success of the high
school play in three ways: by having
"Pickles" sticker on their cars, by
talking pickles" to their friends, and
by sending their children and attend
ing the play. Prices for the show this
year will be 25, SO and rs cents.

ILLINOIS ATHLETIC
COMMISSION BACKS
YANGER'S DECISION

CHICAGO, Dec. R-The Illinois
state Athletic commission today
backed up the decision of Benny
Yanger, referee of the ten-rounG
championship last night which re-
suited in the passing of Tiger Flow
ers, the Georgia deacon, and the
resurrection of Mickey Walker TO
the middleweight throne.
The decision was so stunning that
it was booed by a majority of the
10, 900 spectators and criticized today
by five of Chicago's newspapers.
John Reigheimer, chairman of the
commission, accepted the statement
Of Yanger that his decision was
str city honorable. Furthermore
Chairman Reigheimer let it be known
in no uncertain terms that he per-
sonally viewed Yanger's decision as ar
unquestionable honest verdict, but
perhaps one of poor judgment.

The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1926-02-27

The Copelin Motor company, Of
which F. A. Copelin is the head, has
been in charge Of Ford sales and
service in Bismarck and adjacent
territory for the past II years, and
its business is constantly on the in
crease.
Starting in December, 1914, in a
small building at GIL Main street,
the company managed to get along
very nicely, despite its crowded quar-
ters. until 1920. when it moved to
the building at the corner Of Broad
way and Second street, known as the
armory. This gave the Ford deal
ers much larger and more com
modious quarters, but year ago it
was realized that the business had
outgrown that location, and new
one was sought.
The result was that during the
summer fine, modern up-to-date
garage structure was erected at the
corner of Main and Sixth streets and
, the Copelin Motor company moved
into the new location the latter part
of last November. A formal opening
of the new building was held on Sat
urday, November %, which was at
tended by approximately $500 pco-
pie.
The new building is one of the
finest Of it's kind in the state. 1t is
