[DRASSIE

INDIANA did not produce a
| National Open golf champion

INDIANA did not produce
II National Open golf champion
H this year.
That was decided at Columbus,
Ohio, Friday when the two-day
scores of ISL entrants in the title
tournament being held over the Sci
OTTO Country Club course were tai
lied.
The original plans to allow the
lowest sixty to compete today in
the final lap of the tournament was
changed when it was learned eight
players were tied with 159 strokes
for thirty-six holes, and thus the
list was boosted to 81.
j. G. Collins, Kokomo Country
Club pro, continued to lead the In
diana five, but fell down from his
Thursday average. His total score
was 100, or one stroke over qualify
ing. George Stark, pro at Coffin
municipal course here, came next
with four strokes more, 164. Wally
Nelson of Pleasant Run municipal
course was next with 165 and Leon
ard Schmutte, pro at Fl. Wayne
Country Club, and Willie Hutchin-
son, pro at Elkhart Country Club,
tied with 1855.
The other day we stated all that
was desired of the five Hoosoier
golfers was a good showing. We
are sure they have no apologies to
make. In fact, they hardly should
be questioned about 1t, for Scioto is
hard course and our Hoosiers
played consistently.
Next Monday the regular weekly
pro-amateur meet that has been
passed up the last few weeks due
to holidays and tournaments will be
held over the Terre Haute Country
Club course. Johnny Simpson, for
mer indianapolis resident and prom
inent amateur golf star, now plays
over that course and Johnny is glad
to aid in entertaining the players. A
large entry list is expected, and no
doubt will include some of the play
ers who were in.the National Open.
Fifty golfers, twenty-five from
Meridian Hills, and the same number
from Avalon, will clash at the Hills
course, in the first series of team
matches between the two clubs. The
total team scores will determine 1.-The
winner.
In six-man team match between
the Meridian Hills players and the
Woodstock Club, the latter squad
was returned winner by the score
of IA to 5, with the Nassau system
of scoring used Play was over the
Hills course and was to be continued
the same way today at Woodstock.
In Nassau system one point is al
lowed on each nine and one for the
total eighteen holes. George Denny
was low shooter with rs. The
heavy rain and wind storm inter
rupted the play and marred the good
scoring possibilities. Results:

NEW YORK, July l0.-Pete Lat
20 successfully defended his welter-
weight title for a second time when
low blow by George Levine dis
qualified the Brooklyn challenger
and ended the bout after 1 minute
and 2S seconds Of the fourth round
had elapsed.
1t was clearly foul blow struck
by Levine, but the 10000 fans who
gathered at the Pole Grounds Fri.
day night thought for a moment
that a new champion would be
crowned when the knockdown timer
began counting over the recumbent
form of Latzo. The champion had
been sent writhing to the floor by
the illegal punch.
However, after the count Of four
had been reached Referee .Purdy as
sisted Latzo to his corner and
awarded the fight to the Scranton
miner.
Although Levine had been stung
and harried by the champions
ferocious blows. there were few at
the ringside who believed that low
punch was intentional.

showing backbone against powerful
opposition.
Another close struggle occurred
out w. Washington way Friday,
when Indians and Toledo met in the
series finale, the Bushmen winning,
to 8, lin ten innings. Matthews
opened the tenth with single and
advanced on Sicking's sacrifice. Rus

and Holke crashed one to center,
scoring Matty. 1t was Holke's third
hit Of the fray, and it broke up an
exciting pitching duel between Maun
of the Hens and Henry of the In

Henry helped win his own game
by driving in two of the Tribes four
runs, one with long sacrifice fly to

The victory Friday gave the In
dams the series, two games to one,
and was the fourth series won from
the hard-batting Hens this season.
The breaks again favored the

test into an extra round. An error
on the infield enabled the Hens to
score a run in the sixth, otherwise

regulation time. But 1t was a. dandy
game to view and the many women
