PAGE SIX EVANS WING WESTERN GOLFING CHAMPIONSHIP FOR EIGHTH TIME Former National Title Holder Smothers Opponent} jcasas “city Under a Series of Par and Birdie Holes at Mayfield Country Club Course. CLEVELAND, O., July 28.—Chick Evans, Chicago ama- teur star and former national champion, won the western amateur golf championship for the eighth time at the May- field country club this afternoon when he defeated Hamilton Gardner, Buffalo, six and four in the final round. Evans won 6 and 4, smothering his opponent under a which was halved as were the 24th, series of par and birdie holes. Taking the match was a formality for Chick and he played the last few holes on that basis. There was little doubt in the minds of the hundreds who crowded In be- hind the champion throughout the day that he would win after the first few holes of the morning round. He took the lead on the first hole and held it throughout the match. His shots off the tee were up almost to his best of any year and he had real difficulty on only three holes, two in the morning rounds. Gardner was bucking Chick at his best and Chick's best is good enough to eliminate almost anyone. He was his game and his game is un- beatable. The victory is the most sanguine comeback of the year In golf. Down at Inwood at the national open champ- ionship Evans was out of the running from the start, although he pulled up and finished fourteenth. The scribes and the dopesters counted him out. Evans’ real battle on the Mayfield course, was not against the man he played tod: It was aginst Jess Sweetser in the semi-finals. He had to go 88 holes to eliminate Sweetser from the contest. A succession of par and birdie holes more than offset a little bad luck in a couple of spots. On the ‘ifth Chick topped his second into the creek and picked up. He hooked into the woods on the eleventh.

Ciub Standing (DEMPSEY AND FIRPO TO BATTLE AT POLO GROUNDS ON SEPT. 14 Tex Rickard Announces Match Has Been Made; Champion’s End May Run to $400,000 and Firpo’s to $100,000; It Is Rumored. - (BY HENRY FARRELL, ) (United Press Staff Correspondent). NEW YORK, July 28.—Jack Dempsey, heavy weight champion of the world, will defend his title against Luis Firpo, the South American giant, on the night of September 14 in the Polo Grounds. Prices of $8 to $25 will be charged. Bleachers will be erected back of the ring in centerfield by which it is expected to increase the capacity to 80,000. Firpo, it is understood, $100,000 and a cut of the while Dempsey’s end may $400,000. will run Tex Rickard, who admitted having made the match several days ago, to- night disclosed the place and the date for the title match. Dempsey is expected ‘to arrive here start training at White Sulphur Springs, at Saratoga Springs, N. ¥., as soon as his camp 1s ready for use. Firpo, who is now on a tour of set-up bowling, will return on August 8 and probably will pitch his training camp in Atlan- tic City where Dempsey trdined for next Wednesday and he will the Carpentier fight. Both have considered their, training in mind. Demp- sey will have the crowds at the Sara- toga races to draw from and the us- ual August crowds at Atlantic City wi'l provide Firpo with plenty of cus- sites with the “gate’” tomers, While opinion was expressed after he had made a rather clumsy showing ‘Willard that Firpo would be a mark for the champ- fon, sentiment has been changing in the last few duys and it is believed now that Rickard has in the making another one of his highly successful in knocking out Jess spectacles. Dempsey’s poor giant. Firpo_wi get pictures to shbwing against Tom Gibbons jn Shelby destroyed all of the belief that the champion !s de- feat-proof and the known punching power of the South American has led many of the experts.to believe that Dempsey will risk his title when he ter Elizabeth are visiting here with! steps into the ring with the swarthy criticized after his two big fights with Bill Brennan and Jess Wil'ard because his ignorance of box- ing and orthodox style of fighting but the South American had a most effec- tive comeback in: “I have done everything I have been asked to do. I have knocked out every opponent I faced. I was asked to prove myself against Brennan and I did. I was then put to another test with Willard and I delivered. I would think that the results and not the method of achieving them would be the things to consider.” Both Dempsey and Firpo onght to have little trouble in getting into con- dition. : Dempsey no doubt will be a favor- ite in the betting. There will be more back of the Dempsey money also than the mere fact that he {s champion. Experts who have seen Dempsey lana Firpo in all their big tights are willing to admit that the South Amer- {can hits as hard as Dempsey but where Firpo is a pronounced right- hand fighter, Dempsey is deadly with either hand. Firpo in the heat of battle forges the teachings of the gymnasium and swings wildly with his right hand. Dempsey backers feel sure that the champion can beat him to the punch every time with a left hook and there is no more deadly punch in the ring than Dempsey's left. —_—> Souvenirs at The Smoke House. ———< More Chandler sedans were sold tn Los Angeles in May than any other make, sedan or coach, regardless of price, except Ford and Chevrolet. pi Aa is) ~SRebsas ney Souvenirs at The Smoke House, That Custom-Tailored Look! + MADRAS SHIRTS These Shirts are a mighty, good buy for any man who’s_ particular about comfort and appearance.
