Over Knockdown by Spormote

ing on the fingers of one hand.
He was knocked out once, by Cur
It's (Hatchetman) Sheppard in
1943. A month later he trounced
Sheppard in a return.
Both Maxim and Blackwood,
who recently drew with Robert
Villemain, middleweight con-

wore head guards. The punch
struck Maxim's protective gear.
Maxim was going backwards and
he fell right on his pants and

up Immediately and hammered
away at his sparmate. The rest
of the round was a dilly as were
the final two frames.

said Maxim, who was more en-
barrassed than hurt. Il was lean

were behind me. The punch didn' t
hurt me. He nailed me a better

told Of q television program that

an exhibition tour when he wasn't
playing in tournaments.
The big, deeply-tanned fellow

in a slight daze after winning the

Mary's Church in Selby. N. C.
Father Carey, who officiated at
the marriage ceremony for Boros
and his late wife in May, 1850,
took his vacation to follow Boros
in the Open. There never was
any doubt in Father Carey's
mind that julius would not win.
Boros will visit his 9-month- old
son, who lives with his in-laws,
and his family.
Boros was one of the few pros
who didn't knock the Northwood
Club course, where the Open was
played. Some Of the older pros
were critical Of the narrowed fair
ways, the hard-as-rock greens and
the high wiry rough.

BALTIMORE, June 16.-Ralph
Bogart of the Chevy Chase Club

land Amateur title four times.
The Washington insurance man
played steady one-over-par golf
to defeat Ray Helms of Baltimore's
Mount Pleasant public course, 4
and 2. in yesterdays 36-hole final

Bogart was defending champion
in the tourney and previously had
won in 1948 and 1949. He lost to

but disposed of Haviland en- route
to this years title.
Bogart and Helms finished the
morning ID holes all even, and
they passed the lead back and
forth for the first few holes of
the afternoon round. Helms took
the Goth hole as Bogart drove
out of bounds, but Bogart sank
an 18-foot birdie putt to square
the match on the 21st.
Helms moved in front again on
the 22d with a 12-foot birdie
putt. but he went into the woous
on the Oath as Bogart pulled even.
They split the 25th, and Bogart
went in front for good on the
26th when he took a par 4 and
Helms a DOGGY because of q
hook from the tee.
The eventual winner picked up
another hole on the 10Th as Helms
had trouble on the green, and the
3lst was another Bogart hole as
he played to a steady par 4 while
Helms went wild with his drive.
A fine chip shot recovery on the
32d gave Bogart a four-hole lead
that Helms cut back with a birdie
on the next hole. The match
ended on the next hole, however,
when Helms once more missed his
drive.
In the morning round Helms
erased Bogart's two-hole lead
with pars on the 18th and 18th.

Holy Cross has been beaten

night with a seventh perform
ance against Penn State. His
teammates backed him up with
steady fielding and infield paly
and with a stream of 10 hits off
two opposing pitchers.

Judaism?

We wish someone would tell us what is Jewish about
the American Council for Judaism.
Certainly not in the percentage of Jews who belong.
Ask the average Jew if he heard of the ACJ
and chances are he'll say "No."
And what is Jewish about their program? Take their
national conference in Washington the first week in
April for example There they charged that Zionism
like Communism and Nazsm, and out vciously
against the United Jewish Appeal and the Israel Bond
Drive What surprises is that they did not 60 further
and adopt motion against observing Jewish holidays
and attending services If they did that could say
that they at least consistent.
What we object to is not their right to have differ
of opinion from what the majority of us think and
do But what right do they have tacking on name
which is lie: "The American Council for Judaism"
and misleading Gentle neghbors into believing that
they represent Jews ways of thinking? We say that
it is time for the American Jewish community to take
action and publicly disown this woeful minority OF es-
capists who much of the antSemtSm they claim
to be fighting. By their very methods which indicate
basic nferiory they plant doubt in the minds OF our
friends.
1t is high time that group which claims they are
"for Judaism" either prove it change their name
Incidentally what have the ACJ done for Judaism
except create trouble?
