Sutton, the armless bil- liardist, made his first appcarance in this city vesterday when he played in exhibition games against George C. Spean. The dexterity with which Sut- ton werlds a cut is amazing. 1"or most of his shots, Sutton uses a bridge, while at times he resorts to masse shots, that bring forth rounds of ap- plause. In yesterday afternoon’s ex- hibtion. Sutton defeated Spears after he had run out a string of 62, When started on his final run, the arm- less wonder was trailing. In Spears, the armless player has a worthy opponent. The exhibition is one that proves very interesting not ®nly to those who are followers of billiards, but others.

A Scotchman of Boston used the equipment on an empty lot there being no golf courses in the country at that time.

Mohardt was the twelfth Notre Dame star and the . twenty-second Middle Western athlete to admit such a violation of college rules during the pust few weeks, Mohardt confessed finylnn with' the Racine, Wis,, American Legion team against the Green Bay," Wis.,, Packers at Milwaukee, Dec, 4, 1921, Three Notre Dame players, H. Anderson, Garvey and Largon, previously had been barred from collegiate com- petition for playing in this contest and the Packers were ousted from the American Professional Football Asso- clation for using college men in it in violation of the school and associa- tion rules. Mohardt is just completing his col- lege course and, consequently, the University officials feel, they sald, that it would be useless to inflict the same punishment upon him as upon the others—-disqualification from ath- letics. Because of this fact it was thought that the matter might simply have to be dropped. ° Mohardt said he had definitely de- cided to enter major league baseball, but has not yet decided what team he will play with. At the end of the baseball season next fall, he said, he expected to enter the University of Pennsylvania medical college.

Twice in the sixth round the coast boy sought the canvas, the first from a left, the second induced by a hard right cross to the jaw. Benjamin weathered the storm, however, and then proceeded to cut loose. However, John's lead was a long one, so the comeback availed Benjamin nothing, and Johnny gained the judge's decision.

With veterans like Jack Doyle, Kitty Brans- fleld and Oscar Dugey on hand to as- sist me 1 am pretty sure that we will pick the right men for the positions.” He intimated that the left and cen- ter field positions were almost certain to be allotted to two sengational Paci- fic coast recruits, Coast Boys Favored.
