Between Rounds.

LONDON, May 28.-That the thirsty
golfer should be free to take alsoholic
refreshment at the nineteenth hole, no
matter at what hour he reaches 1t, was
the plea submitted yesterday by Frank

A similar appeal was made recently
to the Scotch commission, also now In
session.
Mr. Holroyd admitted to the commits

play made golfer better able to con-
tinue another two hours.
When asked by a woman commits
sioner if his remark also applied to
women golfers. Holroyd polished his
monocle, but did not answer the ques-
ton.

and Referee Franks awarded the battle to Murphy.
 Rod Hulse, 159 pounds, was giv- en a decision in four rounds over Dan White, 157 pounds. The fight opened slowly but as it progressed Rod was boring in and landing re- peatedly. White was swinging wildly and loosed a flock of hay makers, while Ro1 was punishing the Indian with a hard right up- percut.
 Rcd Good Battler
 He took the aggressive through cut, using rights almost entirely. He is a clean and careful scrapper. Rod looks like a conner and should put up some high class scraps be- fore he is through. He was given judges decision.
 In the curtain-raiser, Rocovich, 15312 pounds, won from Ruckhart, 159 pounds, after fighting losing battle for two rounds. The loser was taking a good edge in the first two cantos and was just finding himself when the third opened. Roccvich came in hard in this can- to and had Rucknart backing up. Ruckhart bled from the nose and left eye A right swing to the head put him to sleep for the long count at the end of the third.
 Harry Sperling re-sreed the first two fights and William Franks the last two. Dave Eousel and Jack Wilson held the clocks, while Karl Theile and MT. Rec dacted as judg- es.
 The card for the smoker was drawn up by Red Campbell, and, all-in-all, it was a good bunch of scraps. Much credit must be given Campbell for the way he proved his ability as a matchmaker. All the men were well matched, and the fights were all fairly even with the exception of the semifinal which Murphy took by big edge up until the knockout.

Mur- phy landed hard right hook to the body and hard right to the head. Granny went down and stayed for the count of nine. Mur- phy was landing rights to the head and body continuously as the round ended. He had a good edge.
 Hulse was shooting right hooks while Murphy was making better impression in the clinches. Murphy sent Hulse to the mat for an eight count. He came up strong and the boys went into a slugging match. Murphy landed a hard right to the head. Hulse went down for a count of nine, got up and then slipped back to the mat for 9 count of two. He was up, went into a clinch, and again went to the carpet for another count of nine. Granny was out on his feet

Lloyd Wancr has just bought himself an airplane, which brings up the subject of the air-mlnded athlete. Perhaps the young Pirate outfielder got the idea from his pitching teammate, Joe Dawson, who is as much interested in the flying business as he is in base ball
 John McGraw, far from being Iaactionary on the subject, once re- marked he believed time would de- v-lcp use of planes in moving big league ball clubs around the cir cult. This cventuality seems a long way off Should it material ize, the oft-discussed entry of some Pacific Coast cities into the major league could be realized
 The Southeastern league, with Havana as a prospective member, went so far as to request authority for a compulsory flying clause being inserted in the player contracts. The magnates explained this was necessary in order to make the schedule connections in the Cuban capital. The idea was that a player who refused to fly would be subject to suspension but the National Board of Arbitration in minor league affairs promptly squelched this proposal. As re- suit Havana failed to join the league.

Collier sent a right hook to the head, Campbell landed a left hook to the body, left swing and right jab to the head Red was boxing carefully. Collier sent in head attack, landing right hook, right swing and left jab. Red sent his left on swing to Golfers head.
 Speed Up in Fourth
 Opening up bit in the fourth. both battlers were throwing them in little faster. Collier sent right to the head, right hook to the body. Campbell landed a right swing to the body, a couple of right swings to the head and was given a hard right hook to the body. He sent a strong right to Joe's head.

Only One Event of Legion Smoker Goes Full
 Number Rounds

After spending the better part of the fifth round on the mat for five separate counts and ending the frame sitting on the bottom rope, Red Campbell lost the main event in the American Legion smoker Saturday to Joe Collier on a technical knockout.
 A vicious right swing to the in- tersection of the neck and head proved the undoing of t..e red-head. Up until that point things were even. The blow made Red groggy. He was down for the count of three. No sooner was he up than another right swing met him on the side of the head. Referee Franks counted nine before Campbell was on his feet again and a right hook put him down a third time.
 Another count of nine followed, after which he was down for the count of three. again for single count, and, as the round ended, he was down once again. He was un- able to answer the bell in the sixth and Franks gave it to Collier as a knockout
 Campbell was out on his feet and was unconscious, though his years of experience in the ring kept him going automatically al most the entire fifth.

Young Stribling is licensed pi- lot, the most air-minded of all the boxers. Which recalls that the late Tex Rickard nearly collapsed in the Bellevue -Stratford hotel at Philadelphia the afternoon of the first Dempsey -Tunney fight when he learned Tunney was flying down from his Stroudsburg trainin g camp. The idea of one-half of the main act in his $2,000,000 show being up in the air was too much for Rickard, who never looked with favor on flying at any time.
 Rickard, in fact, refused to be- lieve it when I called him that day to break the news about Tunney
 That's wrong! Tunney can't do that!' yelled Tex
 Gene, incidentally, after bunny ride, felt almost as ill as Rickard when he arrived at the Navy Yard field in South Philadelphia in a ship piloted by Casey Jones.
