OBBY CRUICKSHANK, the wee Scot from Edinburgh. who tied Bobby Jones for the national open championship in 1923, and tied for sec- ond in the recent national open at Fresh Meadow, has been appointed to the professional berth at the Country Club of Virginia, a club of some 3,000 members. Bobby's adveat into this ter- sitory will bring to the mid-Atlantic section a great competitor and a truly | finc professional golfer. Bobby schoolmate of Tommy Armour. captured by the Germans during the World War, and managed to make his escape. He is one of the great golfers of this country. P'lll‘ has not been kind to Bobby.

LONDON. Ontario, September 20.— C. Ross Somerville, first Cana- dian ever to win the United States amateur golf championship, was back at home. even more silent and calm than before he left to win the title at Bajtimore. It took a lot of sleuthing to find out that he was home. Five times Mayor George Hayman had tele- graphed “Sandy” at Baltimore ask- ing the time of his arrival home without once getting a reply. So there was no committee of welcome, no_public reception or din- ner arranged when Somerville slipped off a train yesterday.

LUGGING Joe Knight of Cairo, Ga., touted by many who saw him finish George Courtney in five rounds at Twin-City lest | night as the hardest-hitting fighter for his weight to invade Washington's clubs, today held his second knockout in as many fights here. The dark, well-built Georgian last | night followed up his four-round kayo of Bob Tow two weeks ago with a tech- nical knockout over Courtney, once one of the best light-heavies in the game. before a crowd of over 1,000, including members of the National Boxing Com- mission, convening at Baltimore Knight's first blow played a major part in the victory. It was a hard left that landed on Courtney’s left eye, clos- ing it completely before the second round had gotten under Half blind, groggy by the end of the third round, Courtney went down in the fifth from a steaming left uppercut to the stomach as Courtney sought to get un- der Knight's “gun” Courtney went down in agony, got up at the count of eight and lasted the round. Here Ref- eree Ed Brockman was instructed by Fred C. Schanberger. Maryland Box- ing Commission chairman, to stop the bout. With the exception of the eight- round semi-final, the entire card was good. In the semi-wind-up Bob Tow. possibly outweighing Ray Swanson by twice of what it was announced (10 pounds), won a widely booed decision The preliminary resulis: Joe King won by decision over W r Kirkwood Sammy Hogan won over Jack Quigley by decision, and Roy Manley outpsinted Batlor McKenna Wm Culling the Cauliflowers BY FRANCIS E.

The Rockne has come through as we knew it would. Its amazing performance has so convinced all the motorists who've driven the Rockne one hour that very few have been willing to put their money into any other low-priced car. Why don’t you do yourself the justice of trying the Rockne before you even think of buying any other car? It’s an absolute sensation, this aerodynamic marvel of an automobile — this car that brought quality into the low priced field.

We agreed to pay $10 to any- one who would buy any other new car in the Rockne’s price class within one week after taking out a Rockne for one hour’s trial drive. Many said we were foolish . . . that p-ople would take advantage of us . that our loss would be tremendous. But although we've given hundreds of one hour demonstrations of the Rockne, we’ve had to pay out scarcely eny $10 rewards! then, he will be able to face his club so that it will be at an cxact right angle to the direction of the line If he takes his stance in relation to the club-face, he will have im- proved vastly his chances for a well directed shot.
