PUTTING DECIDED
 GOLF TOURNAMENT
Tony Manero Wins %,0@ PaSa-
 dena Open Feature Event

Pasadena, Cal, Dec. 22 Pt-The $4,o0O Pasadena open golf tourna- ment, won by Tony Manero, was written today into the annals of the ancient and royal game as the battle of the three puts.
 Meanwhile, the golfing trail led to- ward Agua Caliente, Mexico, where the biggest winter event on the coast, the Agua Caliente S25,000 open, gets under way tomorrow.
 Some Of those who failed to collect in the 72-hole event ending yester- to tournament play. Most of those receiving the larger cuts at the pay off asserted it was only a mental complex. All agreed that the three day contest was lost on the putting greens.
 Walter Hagen admitted he ritter ed away comeback chances with fre- quent three putting. Horton Smith said the new lighter but larger pellet consistently refused to go down. He " dS ei uOZCll SllohtS ii6 i4tl tiIelii lp'St year when he won the event. Smith tied with Hagen for fifth place, five behind Manero.
 Naturally. Tony was the leading exponent of the new ball. He had cards of 73-71-74-69 for 2S7 total but finished three points over par. Mortie Dutra three-putted the final green and finished with 289. Her man Barron, Port Chester, N. r., and Al Espinosa, Chicago. were third with 290 each.
 New ball regardless, the treachery of the creeping bent greens had something to do with the excess put ting. Charles Lacey. former Brit ish professional. said he found diff culty in mastering western greens.
 "I took at least 30 excess butts, ' he complained. He finished with a BOG.
 Manero's par plundering finish of G9 was duplicated by Frank Welsh, Chicago, and Olin Dutra of Santa Monica, Cal. Only one other player EIOhc pcllcCI lI6uieo. IAo was w. Cox of Brooklyn.
 Of the amateurs, Johnny Dawson. Chicago led the list with a 299, tln- lshing in 11th place.
 The leading money winners:
 Tony Manero, 287-$l.O00.
 Mortie Dutra, 2S9-s600.
 Herman Barron, 290-s375.
 Al Espinosa, 290-s375.

GENARO ID MEET
 NOLGAST FRIDAY
FlyVeight Championship May Be
 Settled Through Bout

New York, Dec. % (CP)-Roxing fans whose tastes run to skill and speed rather than to the sight of clumsy heavyweights bouncing hard fists of harder skulls will have their ] hour Friday night when Frankie Genaro meets Midget Wolgast in a 15-round bout at Madison Square Garden.
 The fight will serve not only to ! please the more aesthetic customers but will also answer once and for all that most burning of national ques- tons, Who is our tyweight cham pion?"
 At the present time no one can say for a certainty who is. for both Genaro and Wolgast are rated as such by certain bodies. The Ma tional Boxing association insists that Genaro is king of the -pounders, The New York athletic commission. since March when Wolgast defeated one Black Bill, has been as iusistent that the little Philadelphian was the ruler.
 Knowing that the country was dis pleased by this lack Of fyWeight champion, the Garden decided 10 toss the two boys in there together in the hope that one Of them would tap out the correct answer on the others profile.
 Wolgast is expected to enter the ring a favorite. He has fought here several times during the year and the boys know what he can do, while Genaro hasn't shown in New York in two years. Also, Genaro has not had fight since last Sep tember and sitting on the front porch all day IS not the way 10 train tor q chap like Wolgast,
 The midget, judging by his fights is just about everything d tiyWcight should be. He has stamina enough 10 work l5 rounds at d pace that keeps him ever on the move. Nop could say he is like lightning were it not for the fact that unlike light ming, the midget hits several times in the same place in nothing fiat. HIS buuCltS are ItllIdl hdDly pOHtI- ful for such little fellow, and his footWork, unlike that of most fly weights, means something and IS not q series of hops and jumps that get him nowhere.
 Genaro. getting along in years is not nearly as fast as Wolgast and knows it. He maintains however, that he will more than offset this by harder punching. To prove that h. can punch, Genaro points out that in l2 nghts last year he won seven by knockouts.
 But" as the Garden publicity sheet points out, they were all for elgn lads he kayoed. and maybe not made of the same stuff that are the American kids who adopt boxing as their profession"
 Good old Garden, patriotic to a fault
