HUGH WALKER Admission: $2.50—$3.50—$4.50 Tickets On Sale at Tommy McDonald’s Cigar Store and the Smokehouse WINS FOR U. S. IN SCOTLAND Dr. O. P. Willing In Pinch Breaks Tie Giving Ameri- can Team Victory ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 19. —Fiction's lowly rookie who went up in a pinch and knocked a homerun with the bases filied had his feat dupticated here tuday when Dr. 0. P, Willing, a dentist from far away Portland, suppled the punch in a pinch that won the Walker interna- tional cup for the American amateur golf team. With the international matches squared at 5% to 5%, the octor who had ben treated by his team captain almost as a. cadet,’ went into the final | number of the 12-event tournament and took a match away from W. A. Murray that added the one point that gave the American team a six and one-half to five and one-half victory over the British team. | Willing was allowed to become a} step child member of the team be-| cause Chick Evans, Bobbie Jones andj some other more illustrious and bet- ter known stars were unable to join the invaders. The same class lines| were drawn’ when Robert Gardner, | captain of the team, selected the} pairs for the foursomes which opened | the championship tournament yester- day. Wing, although he had played: a/ game in training that had all the British critics writing about him, was picked for a place on the sidelines and he stayed there while the Amer- icans went down, 3 to 1. When he was picked for the sing- les today he was eighth in the Kst and the team wags composed of only eight. Fate put the big task up to him and he delivered like a hero. When the Americans arrived at the course this morning they were con- frented with the task of winning six out of eight matehes to retain the cup they won at Southampton last year. British experts consiCered it an impossible feat and it would have been to anything but a team of Amer- fcans. Francis Oulmet and Roger Wether- ed halved the first match and the two teams split a point between them. Jess Sweetzer, the American amateur champion, lost three down to Cyril Trolley, the former British champion and the score was 4% to 3% in fa- vor of the Britisher, The ‘little fellows’ of the Amert- can team then rallied to the cause and four successive American victor- fes ran the score up to 5% to 4% in favor of the Americans. This lead was obtained for the first time in the match when “Bob” Gard- ner beat Robert Harris one up; George V. Rotan beat Mackenzie six and four; Max Marston won from W. L. Hope, five and four and when MONDAY, MAY 21 8:15 Sharp ELKS AUDITORIUM 32---ROUNDS.---32 Of High Class Boxing It Is An All-Star Card Ever Staged In MAIN EVENT 12—ROUNDS—12 For Championship of Rocky Mountain Region Hugh Walker vs, Harvey Perkins Kan: 3 City 10—ROUNDS—10 Charles Long vs, Matt Flannigan Omaha 10—ROUNDS—10 George Mosher vs, Denver | Princeton SUNDAY, MAY 20, 1923.
