AT 13 BIC TOURNEYS | WON BY EMPEROR Californian Hangs Up Mark for U. S. Amateur With 19 Under Par. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. EW YORK, N. Y, September 16 —There’s no longer any question of Lawson Little's place in the golfing sun. The California cannonader has taken over the throne of amateur supremacy, abdicated by Bob Jones five years ago, end demonstrated convincingly over & two-year winning streak that he| ranks with the great Georgian as a | shot maker. It is doubtful if Little ever will equal the supreme feat Jones achieved in 1930—the grand slam of four major championships in Britain and America. The Californian has a long way to go before he comes even close to rivalling the eight-year record of 13 national titles collected by the! Georgian. Yet his development has been so rapid and sensational within two years and his domination of the smateur field is so complete today | that it is no longer safe to suggest where Little is going to stop or be stopped. The professionals already are re- garding the amateur king with con- siderable admiration as well as appre- hension. -They have had the open championships to themselves, at home | end abroad, since 1930 with the ex ception of Johnny Goodman's triumph in 1933. It appeared Goodman was the Simon-pure player most likely to attempt filling the big pair of shoes | left by Jones. Johnny's still a fine| shotmaker and a first class compet- itor, but Little has jumped several notches ahead of him and the gap is widening. | No Flaw in His Game. #T ITTLE has improved at least 200 | per cent in the last two years,” eaid a prominent pro after watching the Californian crush eight successive | rivals at Cleveland last week and register his fourth successive amateur championship conquest. “In some | respects he is now a greater match | player than Jones was. He has the | “killer’ instinct that the Georgian | lacked, plus tremendous power and | extraordinary concentration. He is not only & big hitter, but there isn't a flaw anywhere in his game. He's deadly with every club and he is| & superb putter. “If Little doesn't add the national | open championship to his laurels within the next year or two, I miss | my guess. He has the shots and he has the confidence.” The Californian was low amateur in the American open last year. He | was low amateur at Augusta thi Spring with 288, nine strokes in front of Jones. He finished fourth, with 289, in this year's British open. He has given an amazing exnibition | of par-cracking in scoring two suc- cessive “double slams” in amateur competition to prove he can stagger old man Par as well as his opponents. Little 19 Under Par. 'AT CLEVELAND Little was exactly 19 strokes under par for 156 holes. This unquestionably is an all-time record in 39 years of American ama- teur championship play. The best mark Jones compiled was at Mini- | kahda, in 1927, when he finished 10 under par for 152 holes. Despite one | spotty round of 78 against Maurice J. McCarthy, jr., Little at Cleveland never was more than one over par in any match. In seven of his eight contests the champion was par or better. Like s true champion, Little was at his peak in the final match to re-| pulse the challenge of Oklahcma'si scrappy Walter Emery, 4 and 2. The‘ Californian finished with an engle—-] his second on the same hole in as| many days—to end Emery's last hopes | in one of the most exciting cham- pionship matches since George Von Elm beat Bob Jones in 1926 at Baltus- rol. Emery was only one over par for | 34 holes but his most persistent and | courageous efforts were insufficient to | crack the champon’s fighting armor. | It was the Oklahoman’s first bid for | the title and stamped him as a rival for Little to reckon with over the next few years. By capturing the British and Amer- fcan amateur titles for two straight years Little has pulled a stunt that only two players before were able to do even once. Harold Hilton, the Englishman, won both championships in 1911. Bob Jones included them in his 1930 sweep. The Californian has run his world record winning streak to 31 consecutive matches. He's only 95 years old and there’s no telling when and where he's going to stop. . Diamond Dust | EURICH BREWERS and Acacia‘ Insurance were to battle today on the South Ellipse diamond at 4:30 | oclock in the city championship geries.

League title. Gus Crenshaw led the Bokar attack with three hits in four trips to the plate. Frank Di Nenna turned back the Dixie Pig batters with a brace of bingles yesterday as Tony Burruto's Blue Flame Valet Shop nine cracked out a 3-0 win to take the National City Unlimited League title.

ARRY MARCH has ruined all prospects of the revival of a rivalry which tennis made famous here many yeers ago. When the husky, good-natured rack- eter ended Bob Considine’s hopes in the second round of the Department of Playgrounds’ tournament, yesterday all visions of the former District cham- pion meeting his former arch riva Dooly Mitchell, once again went glim- mering. But March did it and in no uncer- tain way, scoring an impressive 6—3, 6—1 victory and entering the third round, where he meets either Ricky Willis or Raphael Sherfy, dependent upon the outcome of their match at 5 o'clock this afternoon. The big Tech- ite seems to be headed for a great cli- max to his biggest year on the courts. All season he has been winning sin- gles and doubles tournaments out of town, in addition to impressive per- formances on local courts. Last month he won the junior championship of the playground tournament and only last Saturday teamed with Lucille McDowell to win the mixed doubles crown. Barney Welsh makes his bow in the season’s last competition at 4 o'clock today, meeting Ben Jaffee. The cham- pion has just returned from Frederick, where he won the Blue Ridge Moun- tain tournament yesterday. His team- mate, Ralph McElvenny, also was due to play his first match today, meeting Kent Boyle at 5 p.m. “Red” Mather, finalist in the Gov- ernment tournament, remained ahead of the field when he won his third- round match, beating a fellow Fed- eral worker, Arthur Simmons, 6—2, 6—1. He will idle today while wait- ing for the rest of the entrants to catch up to him. Entries for the doubles, which will not start until tomorrow, were to be | accepted at the Playground Depart- ment in the District Building until the close of business today. After that time, they will be taken at the Potomac Park courts. Then the Big Shots. F WELSH comes through a bracket of Tony Latona, Tom Markey, Hugh Lynch (as he should) and Ac- countant-Teacher Mitchell accounts for his opponents while teaching théem a lesson, then will come the match that the city has been wait- ing in vain for all Summer—a Welsh-Mitchell combat for a cham- pionship! 'Way back in June, when Mitchell gave promise of regaining his old form, it was hoped he would get a chance to display his seemingly re- juvenated prowess against Welsh. Dooley had won the City of Wash- ington tournament in a walk, but Barney was out of the city at the time. Then, when the District tourney started with Mitchell and Welsh in different brackets, a meeting in the finals was envisioned. But Dooley had the misfortune of being cast against Bill Breese when the latter was getting & “hot hand” which was to-carry him to the final round. Came the Public Parks with Dooley again going to the quarters. And again the curly-headed gentleman met up with one who was becoming “hotter and hotter” as the tourna- mtww.fl‘hhmum THE EVENI Baer Has Eventful Sunday in Training Camp ) Ralph McElvenny, who not only de- feated Dooley, but looked for a while in the finals against Welsh as if he might upset the reigning champion. Of course, Dooley would have to get by McElvenny this week to meet Welsh, but somehow we've a feeling he's going to do it. But don't bet any pennies on what I say. I seem | to faintly remember that I picked ‘Washington to finish in the first di- vision this year! ‘The gallery will miss him, but the entrants aren’t sorry he’s out of the city. It's Bill Breese we mean, who's left his apartment here for a trip to Canada. Bill was the sensation of two tournaments this year and ranking net stars hereabout shed only crocodile tears at his departure.

IT WAS an All-Washington note on which the Blue Ridge Tourney ended on yesterday, for in the finals of both singles and doubles only Capital representatives were compet- ing. Welsh, took the singles crown, but only after being given a scare by his teammate, McElvenny, who won the first set, 11—9. Then, that bespectacled racketer pulled a muscle in his leg and fell an easy victim | to the Rockville Rambler, 6—2, 6—3, | 6—1. Welsh succeeded Eddie Jacobs of Baltimore as the champion. Jacobs withdrew last week after playing one match.

B. A. HEAD URGES | <& Foster Will Ask Convention to Leave Decisions Solely to Bout Referee. By the Associated Press OUISVILLE, Ky., September 16.— Edward C. Foster of Providence, | R. I, president of the National Box- | ing Association, will recommend to | the association's annual convention, opening here today, that the practice of appointing judges to determine | winners of boxing bouts be discontin- ued and the decision left entirely to | the referees. He made this announcement | shortly before the first business ses- sion got under -way. | “Judges stationed at fixed posi- tlons view a fight from different angles,” Foster pointed out. “What one sees, the other doesn't because they have different physical views of what is happening. “My recommendation is that the | referee and only the referee be the Jjudge of boxing contests. He is in a | position to see what is going con at all times and if he is qualified for his | position should know more about box- | ing than any judges who may be ap- pointed.” Gov. Ruby Laffoon and Mayor Neville Miller were billed to deliver | welcoming addresses to the dele- | gates, GAITHERSBURG WINNER.

By the Associated Press PECULATOR, N. Y., September 16.—Jack Dempsey, always & rooter for Max Baer, is of the opinion that the former butcher boy is in shape to absorb plenty of punishment, but that he would have to improve on his showing of yester- day if he would defeat Joe Louis. Max, apparently in one of his pe- riods of lassitude, boxed six rounds yesterday as Dempsey and others looked on. In contrast to his savage | punching of the day before, however, | Baer had little steam in his punches | and seemed content to box with Paul| Pross, Willie McGee, George Turner and Lou Scozza. Several thousand fans went away disappointed. | Early in his workout Baer was dis- turbed by the collapse of a stand holding approxima‘ely 400 persons. As @ result 15 persons today nursed cuts and bruises. William Metz, 65, of Salisbury, cen- ter, a road worker, and Mrs. Donald | Burch, 41, of Lake George, were the most seriously injured. In addition to cuts and bruises they suffered shock and possible internal injuries. They were taken to their homes. All the other injured were treated on the tcene by Dr. J. B. Van Urk of Speculator. Louis Stock Rises. OMPTON LAKES, N. J., September 18 (#).—Joe Louis' stock had | taken another rise today. | He pummeled his sparring partners yesterday as some wise old eyes looked on and they proclaimed him a great heavyweight. One of the onlookers was Sam Lang- | | | ford, the grizzled old “tar baby” of better days. Sam can't see so well. One eye was permanently dimmed by | a right-hand punch of Fred Fultnn‘ and the other isn't so clear. But he saw enough of the panther-like bomber who keeps weaving in to con- | vince him that his race had produced | another great one. s “He's just too much for Mr. Baer, said the broad-beamed Langford. Philadelphia Jack O'Brien Wwas| there, too, but although he praised | Louis, he withheld a prediction as to | ‘the outcome of the September 24 battle until he had seen Baer train. Fights Like Old-Timers. ’“HE HAS everything a fighter needs,” said the former light heavyweight champion of the world. “He fights in the orthodox style we old-timers used, but he has improved on some of us. I can see he has been well trained by Jack Blackburne, for he weaves and tosses his punches | much as Jack did, and I fought Jack “I would like to see Louis have a little more speed afoot but he is a hard man to hit with a solid punch for he is always moving and eounters beautifully. On style I would pick Louis but I will not make a selection until I have seen Baer. You never | can tell what Baer will do for he is unorthodox.” Paul Cavalier, Lou Flowers, Bob | with the Bomber and were somewhat were over.

Little Has Far to Go to Equal Jones : Lipps, Cancela Aim at Everett Bout STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE QI[]Nl[;mlNN[R by W.R.MECALLUM VO /b | ARELY finished with the Mary- land State open golf cham- pionship, which Vic Ghezzi, the tall, black-haired Italian, won, a flock of the local pros are| heading within a day or two for Hot | Springs, Va., where they will play in | the Hot Springs open, starting Thurs- | day. Al Houghton, stripped of his Mary- | land championship by Ghezzi and not | 3y able to lead the Maryland pros in the renewal of the championship, which ended yesterday at Rolling Road, is to be one of the competitors at Hot Springs. So is George Diffenbaugh and so are Al Treder, Bob Barnett and Clff Spencer, the tall, dark- haired Beaver Dam pro, who yester- day succeeded Houghton as the boss of the paid players of the Old Line State. But the pros are not alone among the clubswingers who are heading for championships. The local ama- teurs are tuning up their shots this week for a brace of big-time events which will come off next week at the Washington Golf and Country Club. Next Monday the amateur-pro match will be played at Washington with a team of 20 pros meeting a group of simon-pures, and on Wed- nesday the District amateur title tilt will get underway at Washington with an 18-hole medal round. If Roger Peacock, who bids fair to become the Lawson Little of the Washington fair- | ways, is in the groove he enjoyed at Cleveland, he will wade through that tournament without a great deal of opposition, even though Roger never has played the Washington course well. IRESH from Cleveland, where he pounded out his yarns in long hand down in the press tent, Bob Jones paid a flying visit to Columbia yesterday, played a round of golf, was the dinner guest of Chip Robert, Assistant Treasury Secretary, »ad hopped a train for New York ast night. Bob scored a 74 over the Co- lumbia course in a game with Fred McLeod, Dana Belser, Red Watkins and Bob Gardner, and plainly showed tkat he is strictly on his game. Bob wasn't pestered so much by the autograph hounds at Cleveland, and he also missed it at Columbia yester- day. But he did predict that Lawson Little may become America's greatest golfer. His words about Little spoke only the highest praise for the be- | hemoth of the fairways, whom Bob | watched closely at Cleveland. “A great golfer, this Little,” Bob said. ‘The local boys didn't put up much of a scrap in that Maryland open | which Ghezzi topped with a 72-hole card of 282, two above par for the Rolling Road course. For a while CIliff Spencer was in the thick of the scrap, but he faded over the last round, leaving the way open for Ghezzi and Gene Kunes, the new Canadian open champion, to crash through. Kunes finished second with 285. Spencer won fthe special prize for Maryland pros with a card of 293, one shot in front of Ralph Beach, who three-putted the last green. Houghton wound up with a final 70 for 295. In the prize money were | Spencer, Houghton and Mel Shorey, | among the local lads. The amateur | prize went to meticulous Spncer Overton of Rolling Road with 296. { ERNIE HALLOCK and John C Shorey will clash next Saturday for the Kenwood Club championship, following Hallock's defeat yesterday of Russell Hollebaugi, the portly gent | Holle- | who won the title last year. baugh never was wn front in his match against Hallock, who won on the final green.
