1t is not infrequent, however,
that when the matter forms
slowly that there is a tendency
for it to burrow among the

exhaustion. When such a con-
dition is found to exist, the af-
fected part is usually lanced in
order to allow the pus to escape.
When this is done, the wound
should then be cleansed and
made antiSeptic. Blood tonics or

as an active aid in treatment.
Matter may best be detected
by the sensation given ones fin

Worsham shared honorS with
Dudley after a hot round in which
he bettered par, a tough 72, by
four strokes. He shot six brides to
take the sting off bogeys on the
first and fourth holes.
In the pro-am event run con-

EN-"
Dempsey told the whole story.
Boyd is as wide open as a public
park. Only occasionally does he
fight like Dempsey, but, when he
starts zooming those punches in,
he's terrific. Charley Reynolds,
who refereed the bout, said Nichy
was hit with one Of the hardest
punches he's ever seen.
SLUGGING MATCH
Nichy said he planned to box
Boyd because he heard the latter
was a slugger. But wild Will"
crossed everybody up by boxing
beautifully, and Nichy started to
slug. That was where he made
his mistake. The first round was
tame compared to the riot that
started in the second frame.
Nichy flew out of his corner
before the last chime Of the bell
had died and popped Boyd right
on his $4,000 lug. Dempsey al
most died of excitement as the
Pittsburgher sliced terrific divot
out of Boyd's right eye. Boyd
came back with a furious ex-
change and the boys just planted
their big dogs in the canvas and
started to pitch.
Boyd ripped a piece Of tape off
Nichy's eye with a right hand
and the two were swinging like
a couple Of jitterbugs when the
sailor spun Nichy around with q
right, planted a left, a right and
another left and the starch went
out of the Pittsburgher's legs as
he flopped dead on the canvas. He
rolled over and was counted out
on his back. He tried to get back
to his corner on his own power
but his jelly-hke legs folded and
he had to be assisted to his chair.
SOME DOUBT
There seemed to be some doubt
as to the authenticity of the knock
out. Some of the skeptics con-
tended Nichy took a dive, but If
he did the springboard was the
right hand Boyd threw. Make no
mistake, Boyd can punch. That
second round had all the thrills
of the Dempsey-Firpo elevator
brawl and Nichy threw for all he
was worth.
Boyd had a deep cash in his eye
and that didn't come from any
splash of water. Bill said he
couldn't "get started and felt sort
of sluggish" It's probably just as
well he didn't have his full
strength or they'd have had to put
Nichy together with glue pot.
Buck Everett, who was origi
nally scheduled to box Boyd, die
a masterful job of tearing dowr
the giant Murray Kanner. Tht

: to offer for Bucks slashint

What convinces me more than
anything else that Clyde is the
man for the job is his thought
fulness. Saunders. his fellow
caddy at Congressional and
another of Clyde's self-ap-
pointed press agents, maintains
that when a golfer over-cele-
brates himself or maybe over
stimulates a little Bit" Clyde
drives him safely home to his
wife. That is service with a
smile.
When it comes to extra-job &C
tivity, Saunders is no slouch
himself. From time to time he
has caGdied for a certain golf
ing lady who is apt to get tenn
peramental if her game goes
haywire. Saunders, being some
thing of a psychologist as well
as a contract bridge expert. al
ways manages to settle her down
to her best game by saying:
"Now, Lady, you can't afford
to be erradical. Steady, you can
win easy"
Saunders has been afraid
that perhaps Clyde didn't have
enough education to be a pro.
but he has decided now that
pros don't need so much book
learning after all.
Tomorrow will be as chock
full Of competitive golf as has
been any day Of the current
