Freudberg Again Directs Woodmont Golf : Turnesa, Espinosa Set Stretch Pace < PROVES EFFICIENT COMMITTEE HEAD Aides Also Chosen—He and | . Brylawski Enjoy Feast at Rivals’ Expense. EOPOLD V. FREUDBERG again heads the Golf and Tourna- ment Committee of the Wood- mont Country Club for 1935. Freudberg ran off an involved and comprehensive schedule this year without trouble and again has been named to head the committee for next year. With him on the committee will gerve the following: Stanley Glaser, Ralph Goldsmith, Albert E. Steinem, Barney Krukoff and Robert Baum. Preudberg and Fulion Brylawski still are smacking their lips over recollections of the Belshazzar feast they enjoyed a day or two ago at the expense of Morris Simon and William G. Ilich, The four are known as the “four horsemen” of Woodmont. They play together every Sunday for a trifling bet, but with a sterner pur- pose in view. Each year the bet on a series of contests, with the losers to buy the dinners and a flock of golf balls. Even at Seventeenth Tee. P4 LL through the cutrent year they went, with first one side and then the other a few points in front. But last Sunday, as they stood on the first tee, with the temperature down in the 20s and a north wind whipping across the course, they were all even. Only a quartet of Spartans or a group of men imbued with some great purpose would play golf in weather like that. But out they went, and as they progressed, first one side and then the other would lead by & point or two. Finally they stood on the seven- teenth tee, with the match all square. That seventeenth hole is one of the finer one-shot affairs anywhere—a mashie shot, ordinarily—but this time a fairly good wallop with a longer iron, as the wind biew squarely in the faces of the frozen four. The green was frozen and bumpy, the grass hadn’t peen cut, the sand in the traps was frozen and, altogether, that green —small enough at best—had con- tracted to the size of a postage stamp. But Brylawski, with the honor, managed to get his ball on the green, a woeful distance from the hole, about 50 feet. Freudberg, his confidence com- ing back with his partner's shot, put one 15 feet from the pin, with a statement that the wind whipped out of his mouth, but sounded something like this: “How do you like them apples.” ILL ILLCH, usually deadly on this hole, knocked his ball into the bunker in front, the same bunker which he as chairman of the Greens Committee had ordered en- larged. His ball loomed up bright and new in the new portion of the trap. Up stepped portly Morris Simon, pres- ident of the club. “It is not fitting that & club president should bow to lesser folk,” said Simon. And he hurled his 200-odd pounds and the head of his club into a ball which stopped just 3 inches from the cup. It should have been an ace, and he couldn't miss the cup. It probably meant the match, for Ilich was good for a 4 and it was by no means sure that the other two would get down in two putts each. Never one to crow over a golf match ‘won, Simon quietly observed in a stage ‘whisper to Ilich, “Bill, I'm going to have lamb chops and baked potatoes. How about you?” Bill, down in the bowels of the trap, swiped at the ball, knocked it on the green and said: “Think I'll have a little cocktail, then a filet mignon, pie a la mode and a 50-cent cigar.” Then stepped up the master of the putting green — Fulton Brylawski. Nothing daunted by Simon’s shot, lying on the lip of the cup, he banged that putt. It rolled and bobbled around, finally stopping right on the edge, and then toppled in. His part- ner—Freudberg—got down in two putts, giving them a deuce and a 3, s total of 5, and a win of 1 point. “I'm not hungry any more,” Ilich yelped. “Guess I'm not either,” Simon averred. They managed to halve the eight- eenth hole, but Simon and Ilich lost by a single point. And did the other lads enjoy the meal! Freudberg and Brylawski are barely getting over it now. RACER DIES IN STALL. CHARLES TOWN, W. Va., Decem- ber 13.—Dominus, property of Mrs. B, F.

Last | season Southern was the champion | team in its class in the Maryland metropolis and Tech expects plenty of trouble. Daly, Billings, Mulitz, Farrell and Roland are the boys Coach Artie Boyd is depending on most heavily. The McKinley squad is shy on capable reserves. Its followers, though, figure it has a good chance to win the public high crown, which it has not captured since 1930. In other schoolboy court games to- morrow involving teams of the D. C. area St. John'’s and Bethesda-Chevy Chase High will meet at 3:3) o'clock at St. John’s, Georgetown Prep and Rockville will face at Garrett Park, also at 3:30 o'clock; Western battles Baltimore City College at Baltimore and Falls Church High and McLean High will have it out at 3:30 o'clock at McLean, Va. ENTRAL opened its campaign yes- terday with an easy 48-18 win over Charlotte Hall's basketers. In other games St. John's conquered Catholic U. Freshmen, 25-24, in the preliminary to the C. U. Varsity- Maryland State Normal clash; George- 36-20, and Takama-Silver Spring High swamped Bowie High, 48-7. All the other teams except St. John's also began their campaigns. ILL VERMILLION, back on the Central foot ball team, proved he also knows his way around on the basket ball court when he pum- meled the cords for 18 points as Cen- tral walloped Charlotte Hall. Bl Thompson, 6-foot 5-inch center, and John Munhall, former Gonzaga player, and Al Katz, forwards, both more than 6 feet tall, also showed well, each counting 6 points. Wentz reg- istered 8 of the losers’ markers. Central is without a single regular made by the West Virginia Racing Commission. STRAGHT OFF THE YEE W. R.MSCALLUM by WO Washington golf profes- sionals plan to make the big swing around the Winter cir- cuit which will start after the elose of the Miami-Biltmore tourney this week. They will join Chandler Harper, young Norfolk pro, as the represent- atives of this area in the gold pros- pecting tour along the Pacific Coast and back through Florida and the Southeast. Leo Walper, who runs a driving school in Bethesda, has decided to make the tour and will leave Florida for California shortly. Roland MacKenzie, Congressional pro, will hop into his car soon after New Year and point toward the setting sun, to play in most of the California events in January and February, re- turning to Florida and getting back on the job at Congressional about March 1. Al Houghton, Kenwood pro, who is well up in the current Biltmore tour- ney and looks like a certain money winner, never has made the Western tour and will not make it this year, although he is rated one of the better golfers of the land. Houghtom will return to Washington after the Miami affair, probably getting back home about Saturday night. For MacKenzie, the Western trip will be in the nature of a home- coming, for the young man has many friends in California, and his wife is a Sacramento girl. A total of nearly $35000 has been put up by Californians for the tournaments in|keep & fellow like FHarry that State, which are due to start today with the playing of the Cali- fornia open. However the big show in California will not open until just before Curistmas, when Pasadena will stage a $4,000 open event. And along about Christmas the Australian team will land in Los Angeles from the Antipodes, presenting more dire threats to the men they left at home. Runyan, Cooper, Wood, Laffoon and their pals who have been in Australia all will play in the Cali- fornia events. Back to Florida they will come late in February, but the prize dough so far announced for three or four events in that State does not total as much as the dough put up for the one tournament now in progress at Coral Gables. Houghton started the final day of the Biltmore tourney today with a 54-hole total of 227, needing better than 75 over the last round to grab off a major slice of the prize money. He was tied at that figure with John Farrell, Tommy Armour, Gene Kunes, Frank Walsh and Willie MacFarlane. Down in the second division Bob Barnett and Mel Shorey haven't much chance {o get a slice of money with 4-hole aggregates of 239 and 234. Harry Graham, Rock Creek Park manager, isn't so about the chances of holding another tourna- ment before Christmas. “Looks as if we are going to have a lot of snow this Winter,” Harry said. “But I'll stage another one if we can find s couple of good days” You can't | Ka Southern High of Baltimore on the | M town Freshmen walloped Western, | 338 from last season, but if yesterday's| hjetie game means anything Coach Jack | Sc SACRIFICE TO THE RASSLE GOD. —By JIM BERRYMAN YUH'LL HAVE T'HELP ME WITH THIS ONE i~ CHRISTY JUST DIDA'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES To FLIP THE CHUNKY Court Talent Against Southern Tomorrow Ray’s rangy boys are going to do mighty well this campaign.

I promoter, Jack Broughton, founder of the Broughton school of the bare fist. He first rose to prominence as a protege of Fig. Says a writer in the Sporting Mag- azine who knew him: “The history of almost every pugilist sufficiently proves that the mind, whatever may be hazarded to the contrary, is very much interested in all contests of this na- ture. It is the origin of motion and the body is its slave, Broughton was superior to all others in mental pow- ers. His sagacity in discovering the weakness of an adversary enabled him to overcome many to whom he was in- ferior in bodily force. His favorite blows were straight, and especially one planted directly in the middle of the stomach. He used round blows, par- ticularly when he wanted to strike his BY TOM HENRY. HE father of the new “sclence” of pugilism was the fighter- | antagonist under the left ear.” Broughton's arena in Oxford road, “with stage, boxes, pits and galleries,” was opened in the Spring of 1743 with the following advertisement: “On March 10 at Broughton's new arena will be exhibited the true art of JACK BROUGHTON, Whose prowess with bare fists made him champion of Britain, intro- duced padded gloves in his boxing school for gentlemen. boxing by the eight famed following men: Sweep, Belos, Grover, Roger, Allen, Robert Spikes, Harry Gray and the Clogmaker. The above eight men are to be brought on the stage and matched according to the approbation of the gentlemen who shall be pleased to honor them with their company. “Note—There will be a battle royal between the noted Buckhorse and seven or eight more, after which there will be several bye battles by others. Gentlemen are therefore desired to come by times. The doors will be open at 9.” First Rules Drawn. M 1743 to 1749 there were bat- tles every week at Broughton’s “during the season.” To in- crease his revenue he opened & boxing school for gentlemen, and to this must be credited the first introduction of boxing gloves. Says the Sporting e historian: “He invited the young gentlemen of the army and any other young men of spirit to engage under his direc- tion and promised to secure their arms and wrists with mufflers so that nothing might be apprehended by the softest hand and tenderest skin.” Following are the rules drawn up by Broughton, probably the first actually formulated rules of the new sport: 1. A square of a yard will be chalked in the middle of the stage, and on every fresh set-to after a fall, or on being parted from the rails, each sec- ond is to bring his man to the side i = 3 BENNY BORTNCK SHOWED SPEED AND GRACE_AVOIDING THE TUSSLERS...

The winner gets two-thirds of the money, to be publicly divided on the stage, notwithstanding any pri- vate agreement to the contrary. 5. The principal will choose from the audience two umpires to decide all disputes. If these cannot agree, they themselves choose a third. 6. No person is to hit his adversary when he is down, or seize him by the hair, or any part below the waist; a man on his knees to be reckoned down. The last battle in which Broughton took part in person brought about his downfall. At the Hounslow races he had threatened to horsewhip one Slack, the Norwich Butcher. The quarrel was fought out on the stage of his arena. This Slack was & notably heavy hitter and stubborn fighter. “He kept his right hand close to the pit of his stomach and had rather be knocked down than shift his position.” He was credited with originating the “chopper” blow, which was the chief weapon of the later British-Jewish champion, Daniel Mendoza. It was a blow on the face with the back of the hand. Backer Quits Broughton. LACK beat Broughton blind in 14 minutes. The Duke of Cumber- land, chief backer and patron of the Oxford street arena, had plunged heavily on the old champion and took his losses hard. He thought he had JACK SLACK, ‘The Norwich butcher, who wrested the championship from iton and was the first of the long line of Bristol kings of the prize ring. been “sald out,” withdrew his patron- age and a few months later the arena was closed by act of Parliament— probably through the duke’s influence. The nobleman may have been right, for it seems there was considerable crookedness about the ring at the time. Cumberland switched his patronage to Slack, who was beaten, probably hon- estly, a few months later by a fighter named Stevens. Slack thereupo picked up a coal miner named Meggs, who beat Stevens in & most peculiar manner. The two danced around the ring for 17 minutes without striking a blow. Then Stevens fell on the floor and asserted he could not rise. “The day I fought Jack Slack,” he said, “I got 90 guineas, but I got 50 more than I could have got otherwise by letting Meggs beat me, and, dam’me, I'm the same man still.” This was in 1760 and boxing was fast getting into disrepute. Ot . WILLARD BATTERIES QUICK STARTS. AND MANY OF THEM. WASHINGTON BATTERY COMPANY 1146 195 (ATM) NAL4128 WHITE ONE SHOT BEHIND AT MIAM {Cold Wind Wafts Dutra Qut of Top Spot—Defending Champ in Ruck. By the Associated Press. IAMI, Fla, December 13— Pitted against each other in the same threesome, Abe Espinosa of Chicago and Mike Turnesa of Elmsford, N. Y., led a pack of gold-seeking golfers down the last 18-hole stretch of the $12,500 Miami-Biltmore open today by the margin of one stroke. Coming from behind with a de- termined rush, these two seasoned campaigners of many golfing wars reached the fifty-fourth hole tied at 219 and started the final drive a single shot ahead of Orville White, 26-year- old St. Louis pro. The New York shot maker won the right to share honors by holding out a long chip shot off the eighteenth green on the third 18-hole round, on which he carded a smart 72, one over par. Espinosa chalked up a 73. Dutra Is Wind Victim. ‘WO strokes behind White came Olin Dutra, national open cham- pion, from California, who top- ped the field at the eighteenth and thirty-sixth holes, but who fell the victim of a high, cold wind on the third round and posted a 78 for 222. Espinosa and Turnesa represent the second division of the split tourna- ment, while White and Dutra repre- sent the first group. The second divi- sion, which has cash prizes of $5,000, is composed of those pros who seldom tournaments, while the first group, with prizes aggregating $7,500, is made up of golfers who were among the low 60's and ties in the last P. G. A. tournament and the low 30's and ties in the national open. Eight strokes behind the leaders, with a 54-hole score of 227, came Willie Macfarlane of Tuckahoe, N. Y., the defending champion. He won the tournament last year with a 72-hole score of 288, but so far in this classic has not made a serious threat to re- peat. Lynch Leads Amateurs, “A RTHUR LYNCH of Mamaroneck, N. Y., with a 54-hole score of 236, lead the amateurs who are battling for the Col. Henry L. Doherty ‘Trophy. Trailing Dutra among the leaders was Clarence Clark of Bloomfield, N. J., a second division entry, who posted a 224 at the three-quarters mark, while a stroke behind was Maurice O'Connor of Belleville, N. J., from the first group. Bobby Cruickshank of Richmond and Phil Perkins of Willoughby, Ohio; were tied at 226 with Jake Fassezke of Jackson, Mich. Tied with Macfarlane at 227 were | such topnotchers as Johnny Farrell of Short Hills, N.

S vogue, Washington's rassling incurables probably will see the classic shoulders of Jeems the Londos buried in the canvas mattress for a single pinning, but the opposition will have to be an improvement over young Vic Christy. One of the most popular of the wired-for-sound beefles to invade the ‘Washington Auditorium, Christy nev- ertheless showed last night he can't play ball in the same league with Jeems when the Greek is bearing down. In the only straight falls de- cision so far committed here, Christy lasted 51 minutes before losing the first fall, and then earned the dubious distinction of getting quelched quicker than any other matman in modern local rassling annals, The second fall lasted 40 seconds. OME day. if the two-out-of- three ialls system remains in Jeems Gets the Bird, ONDOS, still claiming the world growling championship and boasting a newly caulifiowered ear, made quite a show of their tussle before 3,000 cheering inmates, most of whom were all for young Vic.

BY WALTER DONOVAN, Secretary-Commissioner Florida Racing Commission. TAMI, Fla., December 13 (). Florida s on the threshold of a season of racing that promises to do a business in excess of $40,000,000. ‘Tropical Park leads the way De- cember 15, officially opening Miami's season & full month earlier than ever before. That plant will operate through January 16. On the follow- ing day Hialeah's park will open a meeting that will run through March 8. Tropical Park will reopen March 11 end continue through April 1. Racing plays a big part in Florida’ Winter activities. It furnished en- tertainment last year to 1,591,223 per- sons, who attended the seven dog and | three horse tracks operating through- out the State, putting $27.548,526 through the mutuels and resulting in $1,972,364.22 in revenue to the State. This year there will be two addi- tionel dog tracks operating, one in Jacksonville and one in Broward County, just north of Miami. Many_ stables racing for the first time in Florida are now booked at the horse tracks. Hialeah's accom- | modations for 1,400 horses and Trop- | ical Park's 850 are being taxed to capacity. ‘While much progress has been made | since racing with pari mutuels has become legalized in several States, there is still much to be done.
