COURSE is DECLARED
TO FAVOR Won ELM

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, August -.

the defending champion, over Bobby
Jones, his outstanding challenger, is
seen by critics here in the lay of the
Minikahda course, where the national
amateur golf tournament will be play
ed August % to 81.
Jones places much of his reliance
on his wooden clubs and putter, while
the Minikahda course, with only
three holes of more than 500 yards,
is considered advantageous for a
player expert with his irons. such as
Won Elm. With only three 500-yard
or more holes in the 6,700-yard course,
experts see little use for Jones
wooden clubs on the fairways. where
as in practice play here this week
Won Elm has used his irons to great
advantage.
Five of the 1S holes are 400 to 500
yards, six exceed 800 yards. one is
232 yards and three are under 200.
The longest hole is the 547-yard
thirteenth and the shortest is the AL

n YEW YORK, August 12.-Tho
IN Spanish menace to American
NJ heavyweight supremacy had
4 drifted over the fiStic horizon
today, temporarily at least. on
the wings of as unsatisfactory ana
disputed a battle as the Dempsey
Sharkey fight.
Pounded, but not greatly damaged.
by every Clout known to flsucuf1Ss the
title threat of Pauline UZcudun, wood
chopper of the Pyrenees, faded when
Jack Delaney's right hand was lifted
in victory on a foul. after / minute
and 81 seconds of fighting in the sew
enth Of a 15-round fight at the Yam
kee Stadium last night.
Warned by Referee.
Thrice warned by the referee for
low punching, Pauline was waved to
his corner after a fourth left hook
landed below the belt. The result
stunned the spectators, who had seen
nothing untoWard in the milling, and
left in its wake a controversy OF foul
or no foul" that rivaled the sudden
termination of the battle between
Dempsey and Sharkey in the same
ring and in the same round only three
weeks ago.
While the fracas lasted there was
no question of supremacy. Returning
TO heavyweight ranks six months after
his defeat by Jimmy Maloney, Delaney
speared Pauline at will. cut his face
and bruised his nose until features
were a mask of blood. But hard and
straight as the punches flew, Pauline
refused to go down or WAIVER. lie

futile. advance.
Weighing Is pounds less than the
squat Spaniard, Delaney, at Il =. was
little over the weight limit of the light
Heavyweight division, where he ruled
as champion before relinquishing the
title to cast his lot among the heavy
weights.
There was little to thrill the specta-
tors in the six rounds of milling pre-
ceding the unsatisfactory ending. Ii
was a case of Delaney. artistic boxer
and master of ring arts. matching all
his skill against a powerful but clumsy
opponent, who had little but sweep
ing left hook and elbow defense in his
fistic repertoire.
Occasionally Pauline caught the tall,
bronzed woodman in a clinch or sur
prised him with a sweeping random
shot to the head. AT close range the
Basque drove stiff shots into Delaney's
body, but the toll he paid was heavy
in ripping jolts. jabs and uppercuts to
the head and ribs. At the close,
Paulinos mouth, nose and left eye
were bleeding freely.
Ends Bout Abruptly.
Half way through the final session.
Referee Crowley pulled the Spaniard
hack to warn him that his fists were
sinking below the waist line. There
followed clinch at the ropes. with the
gloves of both fighters flying to the
body, and the sudden waving of
Pauline to his corner, as much mysti-
fed as the spectators
