Four Of A. A. u. Boxing Titles
Are Taken by New Engglanders

During the tournament, In which 95
bouts were run OF in exactly l6 hours,
there were but two upsets. Botn
occurred last night in the final session,
one when Vito Mazzeo of Cincinnati,
defeated by Johnny Daley of Boston, IN
last years 118-pound final, was declared
to be the loser in his semi-final CLASH
with Holden, the new champion: Inc
other occurred when Ray Tramblie OF
Rockford, ILL.,, the last of the 100 pound
class, was disqualified Tor accloentsny
Striking Lopez a low blow in the final.
Tramblie, who acquired most Of his
skill sparring with his townsman,
Sammy MandeIl, the lightweight cham
pion, appeared on the verge of winning
the title with knockout when the OH
Gals ruled him out of the tournament.
All of the other final bouts required
the full three rounds, but 8 of the 16
seni-final contests were shortened by
knockouts.

No Way of Checking.

NO way OF Checking.
HERE is no way of checking the
total list-elub members, public
course players, stray and stray
Cling golfers, caddies, kids and the rest
Of the large ensemble who play the
game much or little through the year.
But reports from different tourists
say that almost every golf course from
Bermuda, in the Atlantic, to Catalina
Island, in the Pacific, were pretty well
crowded at the height Of the Winter
season. For one thing 1t must be re-
membered that COLTS range is from 10
to 90 years, including both sexes. And
once golfer, always golfer, for the
serum, or rather the bacillus, seems to
carry eternal qualities.
II golf was not so expensive and
there was room for all to play, the
number would soon pass 100000.
Even as it is the golf caddies of the
United States draw down more money
each year than all the professional ball
players, from Babe Ruth down. Some
statistician has figured that the caddie
army collects about 100000 a year,
where the annual payroll of the two
major leagues is under 100000. The
minors won't make up the difference.
Judging from the way golf is growing
and the spread of the game through
all the smaller cities and towns, as well
as the continued growth in larger cities,
it is difficult to estimate what the next
10 years will bring about.
It is to be hoped that during the iull
in the fight game most of the head
liners won't be using the intervening
time to think up other ways Of stalling,
loafing, Juggling, wrestling and dancing,
in place Of winging few wallops. A
few might even think it over and decide
to take chance now and then, even II
it cost slightly bruised eye or chin.

CHICAGO, April ii OP).-Are the
Cubs already ain" as National League
champions? At least one fan thinks
that way to the extent of signing
over q check to President w. L.
Veeck for so tickets.
Yesterday this fan purchased so
tickets for the Cub Pittsburgh in
augura1 Tuesday and at the same
time requested with a check so box
seats for all world series games to
be played In Chicago this Fan.
When President Veeck recovered
his breath he pushed the check
away, adding that the fan really

the result is official.

IRON time to time queries drift
- in asking for information con-
corning I, the , number s 20, Of golfers
the United States may happen
to have.
Even estimates upon these two points
are bound to be blind shots into fog
of doubt. AS far as recent checking
goes, there are something like 1900
golf courses now in the country, but
undoubtedly many in the smaller 10
calities have been overlooked, including
an increasing number Of private
courses.
I'm 1920. at the last census, there
were 1000 towns and cities in the,
country with populations above.
5000. That number in the last
nine years has increased to some
mark between 1000 and $500.
Most of these places have golf
courses Of one sort or another. know
of a number of towns with popula-
tons less than 1000 that have golf
courses. New York, Chicago and Los
Angeles alone have close to 500 golf
courses within an hours motoring dis
lance. And new courses are getting
under way every week or so.s
Then there are the public courses
where In the larger cities the amount
OF play is staggering through the
Spring and Summer.
No one can estimate the number of
golfers, because there are too many
varieties. Those who actually belong
to clubs are in the neighborhood of
a million. But there are untold thou
sands who only play OCCASIONALLY and
there are many more who can't afford
golf as a steady diet, but who play
now and then as opportunity offers.
Added to this list are thousands
upon thousands of youngsters who,
are not enrolled as club members,
but who take occasional lessons from
club pros, or bat around some course
once or twice week. Sixteen years
ago Bobby Jones was not club
member at East Lake, but he shot
the course in 10 strokes that year.
There is also vast army of caddies

PHILADELPHIA, April 11.-After
- weeks of experimenting and
shifting his players about due to
i injuries or lack of condition,
Manager Connie Mack Of the
Athletics has decided upon the team to
open the season against the Nationals

lection is based on the belief that Out
fielder Simmons and Shortstop Boley
will not be in shape by opening day.
Hale will start at third" Mack said,
with Foxx at first, Bishop at second
and Dykes or Hassler at short. I have
French in reserve for the outfield in
case anything happens to Summa,
Haas or Miller. Should Haas become
incapacitated will post Orwell in CEN
ter.
IT will depend on seven seasoned
pitchers to start-Walberg Grove,
Quinn, Rommel, Earnshaw, Ehmke and
Yerkes. will keep Breckenridge, Ma
licky and Boley indefinitely. We will
not carry big string the early weeks
of the race and will be nearly down
to the limit next week."
Manager Shotton of the Phillies ex-
poets to open the season with F1iberg
at short in place of the injured Theve-
now. His pitchers are all in shape. and
regulars will be in their usual places
The team has displayed a batting punch
in the series with the Athletics and
Shotton Is confident it will be the sur
prise Of the National League race.
