MONDAY, AUGUST 24, 1925 World Results SEANOR LITTLEFIELD IS DEFEATED HERE IN GLOSE PLAY Large Gallery Follows Title Match of City Tourney. Al Seanor, Casper city golf champion, retained his title yesterday when he fought his way to victory over Glenn C, Littlefield, state champion, in the finals match of the Casper Tribune's an- nual tournament staged on the Country club links. The match ended on the 36th hole, 2 up and 1 to play, after Seanor had trailed his opponent most of the distance. The largest gallery ever seen on local links witnessed the pla: The first, second and third rounds of the scheduled 36-hole event found the city champion one down to Lit tlefield a emingly unable to even the match. Littlefield made it 2 up on the 28th hole, and with only eight more holes to play it looked like a victory for the state champ. on dog-leg 29th, however, Seanor cast aside all caution for the hazard- ous ditch that menaced a straight drive to the green and laid his ball within 12 feet of the circle, A good approach and he was down in a birdie three, with Littlefield’s mar- gin cut to l up. The next hole, No. in a nine-hole match, was halved, but Seanor took the 30th and the mateh was all square, Before the d taken more, his was safe. y was due largely to deadly y on the putting greens. This balanced by Littlefield in won- derful approaches which laid his ball round and match ended he t two and title dead to the pin or within compara- ly easy putting distance. The iedal score for nine holes in match was hung up in the sec- nd round when Seanor turned the course in and Littlefield shot a 46, which is par. The driving of both mong the best ever witnessed the Country club links and the Nery found a course of instruction in following the match, By winning twice in succession Seanor retained possession of the trophy cup on which his name is al- ready engraved. By winning it once more he would gain permanent pos- session of the trophy and a new one would be substituted. Presentation of the cup and other awards to winners and runners-up in the tourney was made by L. A, Reed on behalf of the Tribune, before a gathering at the clubhouse following the conclusion of play. Littlefield as runner-up received a sterling silver bon bon dish, Andy Thompson, who defeated W. Y, Christian in the second flight, 6 and &, recelved a handsome leather golf bag, and Christian received a dozen golf halls. ‘The silver shaker posted as a prize in the third flight went to Leo Dunn, who defeated Frank Curren, 7 and 5. Curren received a smoking stand as runnerup in this division. Consolation prizes of four golf balls each, donted by the’ Wyoming Trust company, went to Golden, Weeks and Sandlin, winners of the first, second and third flights, respectively. Golden defeated Gray, 4 and 3, In the first flight; Weeks beat Cuddy, 6 and 5, and Sandlin won from Tal- hot, 2 and 1. L .R ay received a handsome in the form of a cigaret huml- dor for turning in the lowest score of the qualifying round, which gave him the honor of tourney medalist ‘The tournamtent ranks ag the most successful ever conducted here, and the smoothness with which it went off was due in great part to Jimmy Mason and Alex McCafferty, pro- fessionals, respectively, of the Coun- try and Community elu! ‘The tour- ney brought out the liveliest kind of competition between members of the two clubs, and while honors in the three first flights went to Country club members, runners-up in the sec- ond and third were Community club players, the medalist {s a member of the Community club and the same organization carried off all consola- tion prizes. Competition of the last week has revealed numerous rising stars in the golf game here and another year should find the championship within the reach of several, depending up- on form and the breaks of the game. ‘The lst of “stars as made up to- day includes such players as Seanor, Littlefield, Sutherland, Riker, Jef- frey, Firmin, Gray and W.

FOSTER (Copyright, 1925, by Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—The big- gest financial loss of the year in baseball took place in New York Friday when weather knocked out the double-header of the “cructal’ Series between the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates. McGraw and Dreyfuss saw ap proximately $60,000 washed away by rain. id, The Polo Grounds reservations Were not sold to capacity, although the greater part of the boxes were Bone. But the reserved seats were exhausted and the demand to see this double-header was,so great that it had been planned to open the big stands at 11:45 o'clock. Fortunately for both teams there is an open date—Monday—on which Pittsburgh may play in New York. Pittsburgh may not consider it for- tunate, however, fur if it were not for that open date a game would have to be carried over to Pitts. burgh to complete the schedule be- tween the two teams and Pitts burgh would much rather play the Giants on its own field.

The final Was 13 to 5 A record crowd witnessed the game, as the stands were filled to the brim and hundreds watched the game from automobiles parked around the field. Bluejacket was hit freely in eve inning, but the high run total m be laid more to the erroneous Infie! work of the Burlington team.

Turnet, Skillet, Webb, Chillson, Cox and Bigbee of the Parco team socked the old apple to all corners of the park while Dyer and Arbogast proved the batting mainstays of the local assemblage.
