MARCH 9, 1921 INTERNATIONAL BOLE GROWING Many Contests in Sight for Com- ing Summer Between the World's Best Chicago, March 9,—tInternational contests among the world’s greatest golfers are in prospect for the com- ing summer in a series of tournaments starting on May 23 with the British amateur event at Hoylake and ending with the women’s national champion- ship at Hollyhood Golf club, Deal, N. J., Oct, 8-8. A number of American women, as well. @s men are planning. to invade England and probably France, while the British coterie expect to try to retain the’ American open title won last year at Inverness club, Toledo, by Edward Ray. Some British ama- teurs also plan to have a try. for the American title, now held by Chick Evans for the second time, when that event is staged at the St. Louis Coun- try club, Sept. 17-24. 4 Recently, Champion Evans, as well as formier champion. Robert Gardner of Chicago, who lost the British ama- teur title to Cyril Tolley last year on the 37th green, announced that busi- ness would prevent their going to Europe this summer, A team is form- ing under the leadership: of W. C. Fownes, Jr., of ‘Pittsburgh, howe?:r, to attempt tv repeat the unique feat of W. J. ravis, veteran Americar golfer who in 1903 won the British utle with his uncanny putting. The American pilgrims thus far an- nounced are Captain Fownes, Bobby Jones of Atlanta, Max Marston of / New York and Nelson Whitney of ‘New Orleans. Others will likely join these four, and even Evans and Gard- ner may reconsider. A number of American professionals also are plan- ning to go to Europe, but the person- nel is not yet definite. . American women are more eager for a chance at foreign titles, as eight ex- cellent players are at present listed to cross the ocean after European golf trophies, They are Miss Alexa Stirling of Atlanta, national cham- Pion, Miss Marion Hollins and Mrs. ‘W. A. Gavin of New York, the latter a Briton by birth; Mrs. R. H. Barlow and Miss Mildred Caverly of Philadel- phia and Miss Elaine Rosethan, Miss Edith-Cummings and Mrs. F C.

NEW YORK, March 9—Before Wil- lie Jackson stepped out cf his corner for his recent bout with Johnny Dun- dee, his manager, “Dor; Bagley, had a few words announced, If Jackson won, he would post a forfeit to bind a match with Benny Leonard for the’ lightweight cham- pionship. / The crowd “razzed” the announce- ment and the crowd was right, be- cause Jackson won and the forfeit hasn't been posted’ yet, There is the case of Paddy Mullins and his good boy, Mike O'Dowd. Mike went up to Boston one night to pick up a little change against a setup, one Johnny Wilson. The referee thought that Mike ranked No. 2 of the pair and Mike howled for monhts that te was “Sobbed” out of his crown. Mullins offered Wilson a chunk of the Fourth Liberty loan just for the chance to.geteven. Wilson had a sore nose then and wouldn't listen to the ex-champ. Mullins and Mike issued columns daily. ‘Then—all of a sudden; Wilson rises up and says words to the effect— “I may be a ham champon and there may be a lotta birds that can whip. me, but there’s one dodox who's meat for me and that's Mikey, O'Dowd. I'll meet him any time he's ready. Since Johnny cut that line loose, O'Dowd hasn't been heard’ from. He hasn't been scen even aroynd his old haunts. He's “not fighting. Then there's Joe Lynch, the new bantamweight king. Bddie Mead, his roly-poly manager, said few days ago: “We're doing something no other champion ever did before. We're chal- lenging Pete Herman, thus‘giving the ex-champion the first crack at his old possession."" At that comes the voice of a New Orleans promoter— “Yes, and you want $50,000 for doing it.
