SPORTS. GIANT BOXER WELL Malian Is Once Sent Down| for Long Count—Primo Shows Courage. BY HERBERT W. BARKER, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, October 13.— The bigger they come the better Jack Sharkey likes | it and Primo Carnera, for one, won't venture to deny it. In the same ring at Ebbet's Field, where he found 170-pound Mickey Walker too tough a foe to take a few weeks ago, Sharkey blasted his way to a decisive vi tory on points over the 260-pound Carnera last night and bounced himself right back to the fore- front of challengers for Max Schmeling’s heavyweight crown. While a surprisingly large crowd 0(‘ 30,000 looked on, Sharkey went to work | methodically on the big Venetian and | relentlessly cut him down to size. Be- | fore the Boston sailor’s hand was raised in token of victory after 15) rounds of spectacular milling, Sharkey had floored Carnera for one nine-count, closed one of the Italian's eyes and had | gven him so savage a beating that | 0 was on the verge of a knock-out on s half dozen occasiops. | Carnera Proves Courage. | But if the fight reinstated Sharkey to his position as a leading contender | 1t served also to remove any lingering | doubt as to Carnera’s courage and stamina. The huge Italian failed to exhibit his vaunted punch, but he demonstrated all kinds of courage.| Subjected to punishment severe enough | to have finished almost any other| heavyweight, the Italian man moun- tain still was in there offering what re- | sistance he could when the final bell | sounded. Through the first three rounds and | a part of the fourth Carnera amazed | Sharkey and the crowd with his speed | and skillful boxing. Using a left-hand | a la Tommy Loughran, Carnera stabbed | Sharkey off balance and had the| American floundering about wondering ‘what it was all about. But the whole complexion of the fight changed in a flash in the wild fourth round, when Sharkey, after| taking a cuffing in the clinches, sud- | Morrow, runner-up last year; Mrs. W. | | tween Indian Spring Golf Club and o A i er of prominence in the Middle Atlantic area has entered or plans to enter the champlionship tourney of the Middle Atlantic Golf Association, which opens next Monday morning over the course of the Indian Spring Golf Club. Entries for the tourney are scheduled to close Saturday afternoon at the club with W. R. McCallum, secretary of the association, although it is likely that post entries will be accepted. The course of the club is to be open for practice by the competitors on Thursday and Friday, and with the tourney again held at a Washington club it is probable that a banner entry list will play. Last year, in the cham- pionship tourney at the Elkridge Hunt Club a field of about 90 women com- peted for the title, which was won by Mrs. M. Louise Bell of the Rodgers | Forge Club of Baltimore. \ This year the association hopes to | pass this number, in view of the in- | creased interest in golf among the | women of the city and the added en- | | tries expected from such points as Bal- timore, Richmond and Norfolk. | The’ tourney will open with an 18- | hole qualification round next Monday. |to be followed by four match-play | | rounds on the morning of each of the | four following days. There will be & | flight for every contestant who en- | ters, which means that if there are 80 | cards turned in five flights will com- ete. Women's par for the Indian Spring course is 76, a par that never has been equaled. Several scores of 80 have been registered for the layout by such | fine players as Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes |and Dorothy Hunter. These two will be among the entrants, along with a considerable delegation of fair golfers from Baltimore, including Mrs. Bell, the present champion. Mrs. E. Boyd Fairfleld Peterson and Miss Holzderber, also are expected among the Baltimore entrants. The tourney will bring to an end the big events for women in this area for 1931, Entries must be accompanied by | | the fee of $3. HE final match which will deter- mine the team championship of the Maryland State Golf Associa- | tion will be played next Sunday on the course of Rolling Road Golf Club be- Virginia to Baltimore Country Club. Indian Spring will enter the same team that has been successful in winning its way to the final round in the team title chase. Capt. B. R. Luscomb, who won the | championship of Army-Navy Country | Club last year, was beaten in the first | round of match play in the title tour- ney yesterday by Capt. James Note- stein, who won by 5 and 3. Other first- round results follow: denly lashed out with a left hook that .| - THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TfiESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1931. STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE BY WALTER R. McCALLUM PONSHED BY EY iz e Alex Taylor, pro at Hagerstown, ap- peared too late to qualify. * IS it proper to remove 2 bee from a golf ball on the putting green? Mrs. Harvey Allen was faced with that problem yesterday in the qualification round of the women's championship at Army-Navy Country Club. She finally decided to take a chance and remove the bee, but the bee then made a bee- line for her opponent. All the parties came off without punishment, however, for the bee was only bluffing. The first round in the tourney was being played today, with a score of prizes put up for the event. Mrs. Lewis Coxe has donated a trophy to go to the winner of the second flight. Senior golfers of the Capital will gather tomorrow at Burning Tree Club to compete in She first annual senior’s tourney staged by the District Golf As- sociation. With more entries expected, the list to date follows: 11:30 am, C. R. White and George Shoup, Columbia; 1 p.m., G. E. Truett, Washington, and P. 5. Ridsdale, Chevy Chase; 1:05, M. C. List, Washington, and J. T. Mec- Clenahan, Washington; 1:10, J. E. Baines and Clark C. Griffith, Columbia; 1:15, Bruce L. Taylor, Congressional, and W. C. Barr, Columbia. OUNG Billy Detweler, the 13-year- old midget, who appears to be going somewhere irt golf, won the junior champlonship of Manor Club yesterday, defeating Maurice Nee on the nineteenth hole in the final round. Detweiler won the sixteenth and sev-| enteenth holes, to square the match and won the nineteenth when Nee pitched his third shot into a trap. Match play in the women’s cham- plonship tourney of Columbia Country Club was to start today, with Mrs. J. M. Haynes an outstanding favorite to regain the title she has won several times previously. Mrs. Haynes yester- day won the qualifying round with a card of 88. Mrs. Everett Eynon, who defeated Mrs. Haynes in the final r;:lxmd last year, is not defending her title.
