(Ring Fans Will Be Guarded Against Fiasco in Coming Heavyweight Title Bout FOUL CLAIM TABOO IN MAX-STRIB BOUT Cleveland Authorities Bent Upon Seeing Customers Get Square Deal. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, May 21.—Cash| ‘ customers at the heavy-| weight championship fight between Herr Maximilian Bchmeling and Will Stribling of the Georgia cane brakes, in Cleve- land, July 3, will be insured against | the bout ending in a foul—as so many fistic brawls have dene dur- ing the past year or two. The Cleveland Boxing Commission | that will police the fight has adopted a | no-foul fulke similar to the onn in effect in New York. If eithor Schmeling or Stribling goes down claiming a low punch and stays on the fioor 10 seconds he will be counted out. And the referee who will do the counting will be ex- amined for his knowlodge of mathe- matics before the fight starts The Cleveland Comm capable chairman in hur Clulee. Clules has been an athletic directos of the Cleveland Y. M. C. A. for man years and kno When he declered “the fight will not be won or lost on the claim of a low punch” he meant that and nbthlng‘ else. Cleveland likely will adopt a certain type of protector below the belt line end further guarantse the impos- <f a serious low blow. 2thods of fouling in the ring will be carefully studied by the Cleveland Com- :esion in an effort to prevent any and agreeable occurrences in the bout. Selection of the referve for the fight will occasion more conversation and commotion than usually occurs in nam- ing the third man for a big fight—and that aiways has been plenty. Controversy over thg choice of a reieree always is good smoke-up for a scrap, and since the Cleveland Commis- sion doss mot bar officials from other States both Pa Stribling and Joe Jacobs are digging up new adjectives to hurl on behalf of their respective fa- vorites. It is probable that the referee will come from some city other than Cleve- Jand since the Ohio city has no out- standing oficial, Jack Dempsey will be unavaileple if he stages a fight in Reno on July 4, but the list of eligibles will resemble a good s(zleid c‘hu_;?k of a etrcpolitan_telephone directory. S Goth Stribling and Schinelng are settling down in their training camps near Cleveland, but neither of them will get into the routine of hard work for a coupie of waeks.

Whatever it is, whether the combination of the new ball or a high wind or back tees or rugged rough, the scores being made in the invitation tournament of the Indian Spring Golf Club are the highest ever recorded in the history of the club. When 76 wins the qualifying medal in | an Indian Spring tournament, whether | the course be played from the front tees | or the back tees or any set of tees, or | under any weather conditions short of & | heavy rainstorm, it is certain that some- thing is wrong with the scoring of the | top liners around Washington. For many years no score as high as under the favorable scoring conditions which prevailed during the two days of qualifying. The balance of the scores were not unduly high. but the low | scorers were not low enough. It may ;be the combination of heavy rough, the new ball and the wind which swept | the course from the southwest, but | whatever it is the prediction of the Golf | Committee that the scores in the Indian Spring tourney would be high has come rue. N the first day there were several casualties among_the top liners | of the game. Yesterday | were more and for a few minutes last night such golfers as Harry Pitt and | | Earl McAleer were occupying the anx- fous seat, uncertain as to her they would qualify in the tourney. Strangely enough these and & few others are the very men who should—and usually do— play the Indian Spring course well | enough to qualify in the first flight without any quaims. Now Indian 76 has won the medal at Indian Spring | there | STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE |how Indian Spring played with the | new ball from the back tees. At the end cf the day there were exactly 16 players with cards of 81 and better. But Tom Pitt of Argyle had to | withdraw for business reasons and that | let one of the three 82s in. J. William Harvey, jr., of Indian Spring, who had missed a short putt on the seventeenth that would have put him in the tour- ney, won the place from Jack Slattery and Lindsay Stott, after he and Slat- tery had gone to the second hole in | the playofr | The real truth about this scoring | thing with the new ball seems to be | that ‘while it affects the good golfers— men who have scored well with the old sphere—and likewise affects the, men who sometimes get below 100, it eems not to trouble the intermediate players at all. The men who scored around 85 with the old ball still score around 85 with the new sphere, but the 100 play- | ers soar up to 110 and the 75 players | shoot up to 78. It comes about because this new sphere does not drop into the | hole with the facility of the old, and into a wind it is too hard to control. | The Indian Spring tourney so far has | been a real test for the ball, and an- other test came today, for the men who played in the match play round slugged that pill over a course made longer by heavy rain. Officials of the club who have the tourney in hand made a good job of seeding the pairings. The result is thaé the draw is fairly even and there wi% be no such top-heavy draw as ther~ Tzas been at one or two of the other vita- tlon events about tire Capital this year. They used the numerical system in the draw at Indian Spring, which is emi- nently fair. y T and Charles R. Mor- who tied for the medal at 76, will play off the tie prob- ably next Spring is a tough golf course, and it | | was particularly tough that big long holes. But that alone does not | explain why only & handfal of our lead- yesterday with ing club swingers were unable to break | We think the new ball had some- | | 80. thing to do with it. For example, the |fourteenth hole at “the Springs” is | good hoie, but not a particularly hard one. Yesterday, with that new ball, all the boys were playing wooden clubs for that shot straight into the wind—"a shot that would have required | | not more than a long iron with the old | iball. And the seventeenth green was 80 far away that we daresay not one |In 50 reached the green. That hole | plays around 200 yards normally. Yes- ‘lerdny it must have played 250 yards. | JIMMY HERRMAN of Washington, ') who never had seen the Indian Spring course before and who drew | | a tartar today in the first round in the person of Earl McAleer, the star south- | paw of Argyle, needed par on the last | |three holes for a 73. But in the face of that big wind, with the new ball, the | best he could do on those testing three holes was 6, 5 and 5. As far as we |could find out no man reached the |eighteenth green in two shots.
