RANCHO SANTA FE, Cal, Jan.
27. CUPD This concerns John Leo
nard Dodson, a golfing hillbilly
from the Ozarks.
Two weeks ago he won the Oak
land tournament and yesterday,
paired with Ray Watson Of Stan
ford he came in first in the pro-
amateur section of the Bing Crosby
with l24, the lowest score ever
registered in such an event.
Dodson, at. 27 already is a leg
endary figure. Just as woodsmen
spin tales of Paul Bunyan. SO do
golfers talk Of the slim, always hap
py boy from the hills of Springfield
Mo
He learned his golf as a member
Of Titanic Thompson's Golf Cara
van. You remember Titanic. For
years he was this country's biggest
gambler, and he had an eye for
but one thing-a sucker with roll
He belonged to the Arnold Roth
stein clique-in fact, Titanic was
invited by the New York county
grand jury to tell what he knew,
if anything, Of the goings-on at the
Manhattan party which ended with
Rothstein getting a direct, and fa-
tai hit from a "A bullet
podson travelled with Titanic d
year. At one time it was his bust
ness TO wrap himself in gaudy BAN
dages, ride around in a wheel chair,
and pose as a very decrepit young
man. The fact that Leonard had
mastered the technique of playing
golt wnlle seated in a wheel chair
ne could get around in 85 or there
abouts- didn't hurt Titanic's pock-
etbook. A challenge would be is
sued, some able bodied duffer
would accept it, and Dodson, get

should have, would be rolled to the
starting tee by his caddy and pro-

a master. IN fact, that ne actually

self. 1t happened this way. Leonard
knew that Thompson would bet
on anything. SO. before leaving
ThomasVille, Ga, for Tallahassee
Fla, one day. Leonard called the
manager of the Busy Bee cafe in
Tallahassee and asked him TO
weigh all the mattresses in his
shop. then call him back and give
him the total. The manager. with
a promise of $50 fee, put the girls
on the scales
There were five of them and
their total weight was 689 pounds.

The Yuma racket swingers then
paired with Clarence White, also
of Yuma, to subdue johnson ana
Tom Brents, 60, Ga, in the dou-
bles final. White and Riessen swept
through the first set with a smash
ing attack, then settled back to
coast to a win in the second set!
Third Title Lost
Johnson lost his third champion
ship of the day when he was forced
to default the mixed doubles cham
pionship to Frank Froehling.. ana
M. Goodwin because Barbara Gaines,
his partner, failed to show for the
Sunday match. Froehling and Good

Arnold Saul, junior tennis cham
pion of San Diego county, walked
off with the junior mems cham
pionship, tripping Fred Moy OF San

Saul later paired with Fred Moy to
defeat Collier-Garrett, 6-2, 6-3, in
the doubles finale.

According to the resolution,
eleven Negroes passed the examina-

which they competed. Eight OF
them, whose names were with
held, however, were given employ

NO NEGROES APPOINTED
No Negro has been appointed to
the position of substitute post OF

though at least eleven Negroes IN
this city are know to have passed
the civil service examination in
1885 with averages ranging from
90 to 965 per cent, the resolution

white applicants, many having
lower averages than the Negroes,
have been appointed since that

that the existing rules Of Civil

appointment left loophole by
which Negroes could do systemati-

fact had been clearly demonstra-

Stating that copies of the reso-
