Principals in the main bouts at
Turner's Arena Monday night and
Uline Arena Tuesday night were to
wind up training today, but the rival
promoters. Joe Turner and Goldie
Ahearn, already were hard at work
on plans for future shows.
Joe Torres and Gene Johnson will
top Turner's program in an eight
round match and the promoter is
thinking seriously of bringing back
the winner to meet one of three out
standing club fighters.
Buddy Knox and Buddy Walker,
heavyWeights have top billing at
Ullne Tuesday. but Ahearn is plan
ming a featherweight feature at the
ice plant before the Christmas holi-
days. Jack Laken. pilot of Pittsburgh
Jackie Wilson. NBA l26-pound STAN
dard- bearer, has been conferring
with Ahearn and if worthwhile op-
ponent can be found the champ
probably will display his talents
here.
Turner is thinking of rematching
Lew Hanbury with Billy Banks,
whom the former amateur 1856 pound
champion upset last Monday. or of
putting Lew in against hard-hitting
Oscar Wright. Hanbury, one of the
most promising youngsters to arrive
on the scene since Lou Gevinson.

in the first game of the season, went
into the game with Kentucky's
Wildcats at Knoxville virtually as
sured of another victory. The Cats
have shown flashes of brilliance in
couple of games this year, but for
the most part of their offensive has
failed to click. Tennessee, contra
rily, has set down some tough ones
and eight foes have scored but At
points against them.
Little Chance for Ole Miss.
One of the most spirited rivalries
in the Southeastern League was
scheduled for Starkeville, where Mis-
sissippi State played host to Ole
Miss. In spite of losses to L. S. U.
and Alabama, the Maroons of Mis-
sissippi State took the field with
one of the best squads in the con-
ference and much-beaten Missis-
sippi was doped to have little more
than prayer.
Graduation and losses to the
armed services left the Rebels under
usual strength at the beginning of
the season and injuries have added
to the burden recently A win for
the Rebs would be considered about
the number one upset of the season.

Winter Golf Rules to Prevail
For Duration to Save Balls

Although some of the older gents
in the game claim it isn't golf unless
the ball is played where 1t lies, the
traditional method of playing the
game apparently is out for the dura-
ton. The reason. naturally, Is to
save golf balls. and also to save the
turf. Around Washington winter
rules have been used all this year
and undoubtedly will be in general
use all next year, even during the
summer when the turf is in good
shape. The United States Golf
Association backs use of winter
rules, which simply means teeing up
the ball, to save golf balls.
1t works this way. Good golf
balls are going to be next to i'm
possible to get next year, and the
old balls will be hard to replace, even
though there now are plenty Of
reprocessed spheres or rewashed and
reconditioned balls. But the real
Evening star., 1942-11-21

shortage will hit golf next year. It's
easier to hit a ball truly from
good lie. One solid whack on TOP
OF a ball with an iron club puts
that ball out of action, perhaps per-
manently. So use of winter rules
saves golf balls, and the clubs all
recognize 1t.
Even Chevy Chase, backbone Of
links conservatism, used winter rules
during the last summer and prob
ably will continue through next
summer, although Chevy Chase has
excellent fairways all through the
year.
Nowadays winter rules generally
are used. Of course, but Columbia
and other clubs have come around
to the idea that the ball also may
be teed in the rough as well as in
the fairway. That move will help
save those dwindling golf balls from
. mis-hit shot which might mean
their ruin.
