Meant to Protect Courses.


A ND that's the main reason for win
a ter rules. or so the gents in charge
of the course tell us. They say that
with fairways heavy and courses soggy
big divot won't resod itself during
the cold months. {. they ask that
winter rules be used to save the turf.
Actually it doesn't save the turf very
much for experts and buffers alike
take divots at any time, if they hit the
ball right.
The only restriction is on the use OF
wooden tees through the fsirway, and
in a way it might be sensible to use
those; that is, if the greens commit
teemen are sincere in that save the
course" business. You don't take
many divots when you tee the ball on
wooden peg, but you take plenty turf
when you thump it cut Of clump OF

what in all probability is the record
catch of the season from Solomons
Island. The anglers in the case were
Vincent Langley of 1924 Third street
NE, and George Liskey OF South
Arlington, Va.
They had over 80 fish, trout
and rock mixed, weighing to-
tai of over 500 pounds.
That is lot of fish for two anglers
and would be little hard to believe,
but we saw them with our own eyes
and can vouch for both the size of the
catch and the weight. The rock ran
from small fish around 4 and 5
pounds on up to big stripers longer
than your arm which passed the 10
pound with no trouble at all. The
trout, not as numerous as the rock,
were in the same weight classes.

10y FOR DUFFER

Code Soon to Be Put Into
Effect Here Is Colts
Great Leveler.
BY WALTER r. McCALLUM.


~ OLF goes back to its sissy days
within a week at the local
T theaters of the big tee shot
~ and the missed putt.
A few days hence green's committees
will post notices that winter rules will
be in effect, to remain until May,
which brings the game back to the
common man of golf, the 90-and-up
shooter. He hasn't been able to do so
we'll on the sparsely grassed courses
of summer and from the poor lies of
fall, but put the pill up on clump OF
grass and he looks a champion. That's
the reason most of the Capitals links
brigade hail the advent Of winter rules
again.
Your expert can dig the ball out OF
a mean lie without any trouble at all,
but give the 90-man downhill lie, or
cuppy lie, and he probably winds up
topping the ball for feeble so yards.
Or if he doesn't do that he cuffs out
husky divot, which doesn't do the
course any good at all.

is vital cog in the ring repertoire of
the youthful redhead.
Generally recognized as one of the
cagiest fighters ever to adjust mouth
piece, Benny has instilled some meas
ure of that cunning into the 20-year-
old Dunno. Above all, Leonard has
taught him to think. A record of 81
victories in 80 engagements would in
dicate that, but perhaps just as i'm
portant is the presence of Benny in
Eddie's corner.

A FIGHTER brain is an amazing
piece of machinery. Things like
that figure to smack vulnerable spot
and Benny is playing it to the hilt.
He was classed as a cagey fighter, but
Leonard perhaps is equally smart
as manager.
Joey Straiges. the kid Eddie beat
here last year, would have licked Pedro
Montanez the other night except for
q little psychology" Benny informed.
But joey, winning easily on points,
suddenly realized he was in the ring
with the great Montanez. He went
to pieces, forgetting everything he
ever learned-and Pedro kayoed him.
TITS hard to explain that. but it
happened with fellow I was fighting

but champion. I was 81 years old.
but that night in Denver Kirke must
have thought I was the greatest
fighter in captivity. He was the Navy
lightweight champ and he'd fought
enough to know better.
Nervousness Nails Kirke,
WELL, in the first round Kirke
nailed me with a right that split
my lip wide open. That, to him. must
have been something on the order of
sacrilege. He swooned and fell be-
tween my knees. I haven't hit him
yet, but it's in the book as a one
round kayo"
Sailor Born. the game guy who
dropped a decision to Dunno last
night at Turner's Arena in a 10-round
feature bout. wasn't bothered by ap-
piled psychology because he's been
around too long. But he was out
smarted, and Leonard was the direc-
tor of the strategy.
Watching Born sail out of his corner
IN the first two rounds and pump
furiously for minute and then fade.
Benny instructed Dunno to dance
away for that first minute and capi-
talize on the last two. Born from then
on caught the equivalent of a weeks
work by Dickey, Hartnett and Sewell.
Dunno Floored in First.
RORN nearly marred Benny's battle
plan and DUNES record 10 Sec
onds after the opening bell, when he
vhammed sizzling left hook to Ed
dies jaw to drop the Irish lad for no
count. Dunno weathered the early
storm, however. and easily outpointed
the seasoned New York campaigner to
grab a unanimous decision.
While Born's left hooks packed au-
thority until the last three rounds,
Dunno poked dozens of left jabs in
the sailors face and unleashed a
rather effective body attack to take
eight rounds.
Still visibly affected by the severe
shellacking he received from Freddie
Steele, world middleweight champion,
three months ago, Hobo Williams
dropped a split decision verdict to
Serge Provost of Fort Meade in an
eight-round semi-flnal.
Hobo never seemed his former self

ward Russian beating him to the
punch repeatedly. Bob Mulhall,

Should the strike order go out,
