OZARK HORSES" LEAD

testants tied at So, under par, and
all the favorites tagging three or more
strokes behind after the first day OF
play, the second annual $500 Catalina
Island open golf tournament today
threatened to become battle OF dark
horses.
Raw Nangrum. former Los Angeles
.addie: Bill Mehlhorn, New York; Henry
Cuici, Bridgeport, Conn; Chet Beer.
Bakersfield, Calf; Charley Guest, Los
Angeles: Herbert Walter, Gary, IND,
and Neal Mcintyre, Indianapolis; all
professionals, were the leaders.
Horton Smith, Joplin, Mo, youngster,
defending champion, and Leo Diegel,
Aqua Caliente, Mexico, national pro-
fessional champion, were tied at 81,
while Walter Hagen, British open title
holder, the other favorite, did them one
better and came home with par.
At the close of another 18 holes OF
play tonight the field will be trimmed to
az and ties, before the final 18 of the
54-hole match are played tomorrow.
Twenty-three players bettered par, and
SO finished the first 18 at 70 or better

name. He gets worked up into an
emotional frenzy, giving little credit
to lack of partisanship on the part
of some foot ball writer who doesn't
give a rap If either team is beaten
100 to 0.
Most of them are fair to this extent
all they want is 100 per cent the best
of it.
In the course of a season team after
team is beaten that might easily have
won with an equal split in the luck OF
the day. To suggest anything of the
sort is to be placed as badly biased and
unfair. 1t would be simple enough if
the score always tells the story. 1t
tells the story of the final result, but
it doesn't always tell the story of the
game as 1t happened to be played by
six or eight running jumps.
Learning Golf.
t'VXTHY is it," asks HI, that so few
wv golfers ever seem to improve?
Is it an impossible game for the aver
age player to learn, or is most of the
instruction unSound? There must be
something of this sort when you see
SO many go on year after year without
improving their scores"
One trouble with much golf instruc-
ton is that 1t takes up certain defects
in the mechanics of the swing without
going into the important fundamentals
noon which the swing must be built,
There are such fundamentals, and
without them all the correction of
certain faults is of little help except
for a day of two.
Another fault lies with the aver
age golfer who hasn't the time or
the patience to take these funda-
mentals and build on them through
study and practice and hard work,
A tip that will correct a slice or
correct hook may last for day or
two or week or two, but it is onlv
a temporary cure. Unless there is an
understanding of the fundamentals
covering the swing and the Willingness
to work on these fundamentals, any
hope of real improvement might as
well be thrown through the window.

WORLD CUE RECORD
IS SET BY RUDOLPH
BY the Associated Press.

DS JIS AoSOCldlcu EIGoS,
DETROIT, Mich, December IA
new world record for high run and best
game as well as for the fastest game
ever played in championship pocket
billiard tournament is in the possession
of Erwin Rudolph of Chicago today.
Another mark, that of an average of
1878 for 375 points made in three
games, also is claimed for this Sensa-
tional cueist, who defeated Spencer Liv-
sey of Los Angeles by 125 to a minus
2 in four innings last night.
Rudolph made an unfinished high
run of Ill, breaking the mark of I01
made by Ralph Greenleaf against Je-
rome Keogh in 1924. He also broke the
best game mark of five innings, which
was held jointly by four other players
He equaled the five-inning mark
against Joseph ]. McCann in his second
game. Rudolph also claims the record
for speed, running out the 125 points in
81 minutes.
Another remarkable feat which was
pointed out by Referee Ferguson was
the fact that Rudolph did not miss a
shot,
He ran is in his first inning, then
played safe. He played safe in his Sec
ond try and in his third he made a
deliberate scratch, which was a forfeit
when he shot into the cushion and
away from the balls. LivSey followed
with a safety, then Rudolph pocketed a
ball which escaped the bunch and from
that time on he was master. :.
Rudolph is in undiSputed possession
of first place with three victories and
no defeats.

this point the necessity of finger
grip, naturally applied, is brought
home keenly. But it must be neither
too loose nor to rigid.
If not naturally applied or II ap-
piled too loosely the shaft tends to

Tunney was practically the last word
in self-development, with few outstand-
ing physical qualities to start with:
Tunney lacked the speed, quickness and
physical ability of Jim Corbett and
other good boxers. He developed the
speed that he had But his main &C
complishment, outside of perfect con-
dition, was the slow and gradual I'M
provement of his punching accuracy.
He had at least four or five brands
of punching to work with and, While
he was not in any way phenomenal with
any brand, he was, at least, effective.
Both Dempsey and Tunney worked out
their pugiliStic deStinieS effectively with
what nature gave them. OF the two,
Dempsey was naturally more interesting
to watch, because offenSe is nearly
always more interesting than defense.
Dempsey's reign lasted for seven years,
and it was the most spectacular seven
years from all heavyweight history. 1t
was nearly all action and drama, tumult
and excitement. 1t isn't likely that
another Dempsey will come along for
the next half century. For that matter,
it will be long time before another
heavyweight starts with Tunney's origi-
nal limited physical equipment and
builds himself into a champion. He
came closer to getting 100 per cent from
his capabilities than any competitor In
the game.

uteS. After a short but sensational and
highly dramatic battle, McLarnin
stretched the handsome Jewish boy on
the canvas for the full count of 10 with
only So seconds of the second round
elapsed.
There had been some talk beforehand
that Ruby would not or could not take
it" but the pride of the East Side gave
a magnificent exhibition of courage and
gameness before he was battered to a
limp hulk by the terrific punching oil
one of the hardest hitters of modern
ring history for his size. 1t was the end
of another broken trail for Goldsteln,
but Ruby won the admiration, the roars
of a capacity crowd of close to 10000,
even though he was hopeleSSly out
clasSed by greater fighter.
GoldStein was floored twice by NC
Larnin's slashing attack before he took
the final count. Only the bell saved
the Jewish youth from a knockout in
the first round. When he gamely
crawled to his feet after count of nine
and reeled along the ropes, trying to
check the storm of blows that blinded
him.
GoIdstein Game to End.
Ruby, his pale, ascetic features swol-
len and his soft, deep set eyes, blood
shot, stumbled to his corner. He came
out warily in the second round, stab
bing somewhat futilely now, for there
seemed not much chance for him
against the chunky, determined Irish
man. With the grace of a cat and
the swift=striking power of a panther,
McLarnin lashed his right to- the jaw.

between Jackie Fields of Los Angeles,

Gorilla" Jones of Akron, Ohio, in the
seventh round last night. The referee,
Joe O'Connor, stopped the fray, de-
claring that Jones was not giving his
usual exhibition.
Fields burst into tears. The State
Boxing Commission ordered Eddie

Fields made a furious start, betting
the Negroes head and body with stiff
leftS during the early rounds. Jones
made the best showing in the third by
landing several short but hard rights.
Fields left hooks appeared to be slow
ing Jones down in the final rounds.
From the opening of the fight the
contestants were continually jeered
from the gallery, with organized
demonstrations directed particularly at
Jones. A crowd of $4,000 saw the
match.
O'Connor's verdict was not approved
by Eugene Buckley, member Of the
State Boxing Commission, at the ring
side. He said Jones lack of aggressive
ness made the match dull, but he
thought the battlers tried to give an
honest fight.

Somehow, at the count of 8, the Jew

Covering Foot Ball.

THERE is only one sure way of pleas
l. ing two rival foot ball crowds in
the treatment of game. First, the
petter team must always win; second
the losing team must always go down
fighting or else achieve moral victory.
1t is a fairly well established fact
that the better team does not always
win in a foot ball game-meaning, OF
course, as the game is played that one
day. Through the recent season teams
that played the better all-around foot
ball for certain afternoons were often
beaten by teams that did not play quite
so well. 1t is that brand of game; as
mentioned often before in these dis
patches, the most basically unsound OF
all the competitions.
But the average foot ball fan hap
pens also TO be the most biased, the
most prejudiced and the most unrea-
sonable of all who follow sport, no
matter what other game you might
