When he started the final day's play he realized he had little chance for first place and spent most of his time trying to help his young playing mate, Farrell, paying little attention to his own shots. When Farrell shot himself out of a chance with a 46 on ons morning nine, “Chick” no longer tried. Evans left for the east last night to play in_the International team matches, while Brady left for Boston, ;‘here his aister-in-law died yester- ay. REND'S IMPROVED FORM CHECKS AHEARN IN RING Sailor Johnny Reno, formerly of the U. 8. S. Nevada, apparently has had a deal of fistic coaching since his first appearance in the Sportland ring at Berwyn Heights, Md. His initial scrap there was a rank fail-| con- ure, sa far as Johnny was cerned. Last week, however, against John L. Smith of Georgetown the lit- tle featherweight did quite well. In the main go at Sportland last night the ex-sailor boxed so cleverly through ten rounds that he earned 2 decisfon over voung Goldle Ahearn. Tocal product. who long has held sway over other featherweights in this section. Reno had the deciston coming his way, too. Neither boy fought him- self out, for both easily were ready for further action when the tenth- round gong halted proceedings, but Johnny had all the better of flve of the rounds and held the Washingto- nian to a draw in two others. Ahearn showed to advantage In the fifth and eighth_sessions, evening the scrap, then Reno uncorked a speedy at- tack in the last two rounds that brought home the bacon. Tn the eight round semi-final. Jimmy Brock of Baltimore and Kid Breck. a Quantico marine, welterweigh fought a draw. Billy Vincent of the Navy and Joe Stecher of Baltimore. 140-pounders, battled into the sixth round before the latter was counted out. Billy Skinner of Washington won over Charlie Barber of Baiti- more in six rounds. In the opening encounter of four rounds. Bobby Reno of Philadelphia and Sailor Lewis of Raltimore went through a draw. A ruling of the Maryland boxing commission prevented Mme. Jeanne 1.a Mar, French claimant to the wom- en's world featherweight title, from siving an exhibition with a sparring partner. Trinity Calls Gridmen.
