HAGEN REMAINS
GENES CHOICE
TO WIN MATCH
BY GENE SARAzEN
Former u. s. Open Golf Champion)

SANDWICH, Eng, May --
Given an even break in the matter
of luck, which plays such an i'm
portant part in golf / feel confident
that one of the American contend
ers will come through to win the
British open championship.
Certainly we held our own in the
qualifying rounds with the British,
who are most anxious to get back
the title this year.
Only little Jose Jurado, the Ar
gontinian, displayed golf which
might be described as brilliant dur
ing the first two days. He alone
broke par.
l still retain my belief that Wal
ter Hagen will play leading if not
winning part in the present cham
pionship Ny own golf on Tuesday
pleased me tremendously, as it was
the best | have played in many a
day.
''Thc Haig' is coming on gradu-
ally and if he gets within striking
distance today he will be hard to
stop.
Bill Mchlhorn, who played around
with me during the qualifying
rounds may come through, but ! was
exceedingly sorry to see him clown
ing about yesterday. When golf
! cr lets down as Mehlhorn did, he
sometimes has trouble in resuming
his best under championship condi-
! tons.
The Americans who qualified --
Hagen, Armour, Barnes, Mchlhorn,
Stupplc, McHugh, Grant and my
self-will have no excuses to pre-
sent in defeat. BY nightfall those
] of us who hope to keep on must be
within Is strokes of the leader. 1t
may be that one of US will be the
+ leader.
Jurado, if he keeps the pace he
set during the first two days, might
surprise us all by stepping out III
front and clinching the trophy.

MIKE M'TICUE
GIVEN DRAW In
LISTLESS BOUT

, Los ANGELES, May 9.-Vcncr-
able Mike McTigue and Cowboy Jack
Willis, rough, rushing young slug
ger, went ten rounds to a draw in
a lisetless bout at the Olympic audi
torium last night.
For eight rounds Mike refused to
become excited, but when Willis cut
his eye in the ninth, the Irishman
was aroused. He protected the eye
for the rest of the round, but had
things all his way in the tenth.
McTiguc probably had slight
shade, but Referee Freddie Gilmore
decided it was even. McTiguc
knew too much for Willis. He was
calm as the Cowboy tore in to let
loose wild barragcs.
McTiguc spent the first eight
rounds showing Willis how to box.
As the fans boocd and stamped,
Willis tried to force the fighting
but the veteran made him look fool
ish for his trouble.
Angercd by the cut eye in the
early ninth, McTiguc gave good ac-
count of himself in the latter part
| of the frame and went over with
the fans in the tenth.
The prcliminaries were all knock
outs. Frankie Tondorf hit the can
vas three times in the first round
in his bout with Jimmy Lunday and
was out cold the last time.
Russell Walter beat Louis Alva-
RADIO on technical knockout in the
third round of the other scheduled
six rounder.
In the four FOUNDERS Kano Naka-
mura knocked out Ray Ballalobas in
the second round and Sammy Agui-
IRE did the same to Billy Waugh.

Fire Chief Noble, appropos of fire which destroyed a dress and might have had more serious re- suits has issued another warning to New Britain people to take care in handling the highly combusta ble liauid. particularly when it is being used as a cleaning fluid.

AUGUSTINE LONERGAN AND THE SENATORIAL NOMINATION

Word that comes from those in close touch with Democratic activi- ties about the state seems to indi- cate that Augustine Lonergan is practically assured of the nomina- tlon for the T.. S Senate at the coming convention. message that will be received with enthusiasm by even the most devoted Republicans of this district Though they may not intend to vote for him at the polls it iH certain that their familiarity ' h his record of six years in Congress from the fret congressional district assures them that the state will be we'll and ably represented in the upper house if their candidate loses, which is more than a possibility. Democrats here abouts could not pick out a strong CT man with whom to extract every possible vote from their supporters. l Mir. Lonergan was a representative from this state for a remarkab bIy long time considering his political ! affiliations and he won many friends by his courteousness to local man. ufacturers. his willingness to go out of his way to aid them with Wash ington affairs, though they are unanimously opposed to him politi- cally In the election of 1920 he made a remarkable showing. run ming o6,ooo ahead of his ticket in the state as candidate for Senator. though he failed of election in the landslide that took place. Of 169 towns he ran ahead of 16e. tied the vote in two and ran behind in one. Bozra having an individual who switched from the Democratic na- tional ticket to vote Republican on tllc StClc O1!iCc.
 An active opponent Of his is P. B O'Sullivan from over the other side of the state. also an ex- congress man. Mir. Sullivan is a thoroughly nkeabe individual as many local people, including the writer. can testify. But as senatorial timber he does not measure up to the stand ard set by Mir Lonergan, a fact which it eeems the Democrats of the state are going to recognize.
 | The chance of being swept into . office on the heels of a Smith victor, , for Mir. Lonergan is great. Ever then. however it is almost safe tt
 say tEat he will run ahead of the
 presidential ticket here and it may prove that he has added some votes to the Smith total by the power ol his own personality and popularit, in the state. The Democrats coulG not possibly select stronger vote , setter with which to bolster up the
 Smith boom in Connecticut and i 5 appears they reallze it.
