Babbitt, Ralph Beli, L. Bonbrest, | RETILARF 5 L5ED ASPUNCHNG BAG | Clever Sekyra Cuts Youth's | Face to Ribbons, Felling Heavy Hope Once. BY ALFRED DAYTON. EW YORK, September 2.— Joe Sekyra outpointed . Charley Retzlaff in 10 rounds before a | N crowd of 10,000 at the Queens- boro Stadium last night, ®nd so it proved that many were right when they called this an inadvisable match for the farm boy from Minnesota, who had worked his way through 34 vic- torfes without a defeat and scored 30 knockouts. Sekyra, the wise ones argued, was too | experienced and would make Retzlaff | look bad. He did not only this, but he | cut Retzlafl's face to ribbons, making | 1t ook as if it had been pounded with | a base bail bat by the end of the | match | Retzlafi's right eye was closed com- | pletely from a left hook he caught in | the third round, and in the first round | an egg was placed over his Tight optic. | Left jabs split his lips in the sixth and after the match his right arm was so | sore from catching Sekyra's left hooks that he could hardly raise it. So, all in all, Retzlaff had a rather | stormy session,” and it was fortunate | that he was not in against a puncher, for had Sekyra essed a wallop it | is hardly likely that the Westerner | would have gone the route. As it was, Fe was on the floor with Referee | Arthur Donovan tolling eight over him | when the bell sounded, ending the | seventh round. | The chances are Retzlaff was not | hurt enough to be knocked out entirely, but he was badly befuddled in this un- familiar position upon the canvas and might have muffed the count. All of which went to prove that while | | Retzlaff still belongs among the prom- | 1sing youngsters, he is many months | away from meztlng"the leading heavy- | weights of the realm. To his credit, he | took everything Sekrya had and always | kept trying. Minor Leagues International League. Baltimore, 3: Jersey City, 2. Newark, ‘Toronto, 3. Rochester, 3; Reading, 2.

Wash- ! ington golf fans are thoroughly intrigued. The coming ‘together of Burke and Von Elm was an entirely new phe- nomenon and one that either of them would have been glad to pass up, if the coveted title could have been won any other way. But now that'they are together, they constitute one of the most arresting partnerships in golf. URKE and Von E'm gravitated to- gether through the unforgettable 72-hole play-off for the recent naticnal open champlonship at Tolzdo It might have been a dull performarce, or a show in duplicate, if the two had employed the same style of piay, but actually they are poles apart in meth- ods of stroking. Burke is claiming, and justly, the mantle for stroke-saving which was worn regally by Walter Hagen and Bobby Jones. With ai the greatness that hies been conceded such stylists as Harry Vardon and Macdonald Smith, it in chipping and puttin, mrvesl.hnurke provex not to say that golf fans wili be disappointed in the champion’s long game, driving and iron-playing. Exactly the opposite is true, for de- spite his handicap of having only four fingers on his left hand, Burke is the most deadly accurate golfer off the tees active in the game today. HAT makes Von Elm, the blonde tiger of the West, such an ap- pealing figure from the gallery’s viewpoint is his pugnacity, power and accuracy with his irons.
