An even 24 won their way into the finals with the same maximum score s yesterday, 152. Hagen Leads the Field Walter Hagen, of Detrpit, led the field with a sccre of 141, John Far- el a New York profi ‘had the low round with a 68. One fourth of the jers were amateurs with Ed. die Held, a 19-year-old St. Louls play- or leading them with 147 in eighth place. George Duncan, the famous En- glish professional, took 41 on his fi- 2al nine and barely quaified. At the 154 mark stood Davison Her- ron, 9f Chicago, former national ama- teur champion, and the setond former national amateur title-holder to go out, Bob Gardner failing yesterday. Accompanying him were Art Reld. of' . Wilfred Reid, of Wash- umbus, Obio, veteran of many a tour- nament. With these and a few other excep- tons, all of the greater players ified, Leo Diegel, Clarence Huackney, Jack Burke, John GolMen, John Far- rell, Frank Sprogell and Gene Sara- ten were among the well-knbwn pros to go through safely. The six ama- teurs who obtained a seat alongside of them were Jesse Guilford of Bos- on, national amateur champion: Ed- die Held, Fred Wright, Los Angel Robert Jones, Jr. the youthful A lanta, Ga.. star Yhm Anderson, the two days. The final group will §o out tomorrow, the low 24 and tles getting into the finals Thursday and Friday. Standing out fo-today’s play was the work of Walter Hagen, whose one over par for 36 holes was a game, which for a time, threatened to get Into the class of Jock Hutchison's 135 score of yesterday. Jones Does Great Playing Bobby Jones did wome great play- ing and but for indifferent work in the aftermoor might have (inished nearer the top. He and Leo Diegel of ew Orleans and Georgs Duncan pair- »d with Hagen, drew the largest gal- leries. With a lttle luck on the greens, Jones’ 71 for the first round would have been about 63. He was making wonderful tes shots, and, while a lit- te wild with his irons. was sending in perfect run-ups, which generally left bim a chance to sink in one putt. In the first half of the afternoon round Bobby began with a par four, | Serered. but on the par three-twentieth, sent his drive to @ post well to the side »f the green and pitched too far back, waking four. Bang ! went his club in- 0 the ground. On the eighth he slic- »d a_drive, the result being 38 for the sar 34 nine. Eddie Hpld did not make any shots that were lar, but nearly ev- wry one of his strokes was on the bor- ter of brilliancy. His mopning round wes & nice 74, wd his afternoon a 73. Wright Plays Good Game Fred Wright also shot a steady game s did John G. Anderson, and Frank Godchaux, Jr. miht have had a mmamh-mmmmh, with potting. John Farrell's 68 wes sasily the Jow round of the day and his 76 in the morning. put him in wcond position for the entire day. Franks Sprogel, the Memphlis pro wind John Black, each shot par sev- in the first round, but each tound putting too hard in the second round. Leo Diegel. who looked like the low qualifier for 27 holes, being only & stroke or two over par, failed to putt on the final nine and dropped back. ateur champion of Minnesota; Alex Armour, Scotch champlon and broth- er of T.

Vincent Richards® defeated James Davies of Los Angeles, in a ‘second round match, 6-4, 6-4. It was the best exhibition of skill and speed seen dur- ing the day. The upset of Hardy was the sur- prise of the day. World champion William T. Tilden, 2nd, again failed to' get' intd action, but he was advanced to'a third round match for tomorrow -through default by F. A. Hill.

X The first. inning opened with a rush when the Avants' wrecking crew with Doc Kirby as lead-oft man hit safely as daid Scud, Burke and Anderson, scoring Kirby. ~ Jim Mara who proved to be the Babe Ruth of the game, came up with_the bases full and crashed out a ripping triple that sent the three men on bases home. - After some spectacular playing by Callahan and Harriss, the Avants finally retired only to return in the next inning for four -more runs. In the third inning, the attack became so fierce that George Madden, yramisr pitch- er fof the Nuggets, was driven from the box and “Texas” Callahan took up the burden. Texas looked to be in the pink of condition but appearances were deceiv- ing and after two innings was chased 1o the showers. Harriss theh went into the lox and the former big leaguer held 'the hits well scattered but the damage had been deme.

This was cspecially true with the Nuggets' third- sacker, Jack Craney. Jack’s spirit was willing bu the flesh was wealk, but ‘Billy would ride him just the same. Jack's redeeming ‘eature was his ‘base running and the only criticism that Coach Moore” made was that Jack ran too long in one place. Toward the last of the game the Avants weakened from the strain and jfast pace that had been set in the early innings and the Nuggets forged ahead until they had equalled half the Avents’ score. ~In the ninth inning with the bdses full George Madden cams 1o bat. The stands rocked” with cheers for Mad- den and George with all the confidence of Babe Ruth, doffed nit hat to the cheering throng. He took his position at the plate, grinned openly and deflantly at Slim. Slim grinned back and though his arm was a trifile tirad he put all he had on the ball. Whiff-zang, went the ball in- to Bean’s glove. George never tutned a hair but grinned, as the umbire pro- nounced it a strike. Whift-zanz, and again the umpire’s verdict was “Strike.” George grinned but not 5o noticeably as before. Back went the ball to Slim. George hitched up his belt, so did Slim. Slim started. his wind-up and George set- tled back to lean on that old pill when it came within striking distance. ‘It was evident that George. was about to do something and he did. As the ball ap- proached him, George closed his eves and swung, and it was a mighty swing, too. There was a sharp crack and the out- flelders started on the run, but George stood still in wonderment as the catcher picked the ball from his glove where it had smacked in. George had struck out. The lineup was as follows: Avants—Doc Kirby, first base; Scud, second base; Joe Burke, short stop; An- derson, third base; Jim Mara, right field; Frank Pounch, center fleld; George “Tracey, left field; Bean, 'catch; White, pitch.

This is the first time any such con- test was in prospect, although sev- eral sailors -have successfully trav- ersed the Atlantic alone. Howard S. Blackburn, of Gloucester, Mass., did it twice. In 1899, he sailed the 30-foot sloop Great Western single-handed from his own Gloucester to Glouces- ter, Engand, in 62 days. Two years later, with the 25-foot sloop Great Republic, he sailed from Gloucester, Mass., to Lisbon, Portugal, in 39 days. During the nipeties, Captain Joshua Slocum sailed all the way around the world by himself, devoting several years to the voyage. Mr. Nutting spent four months on a single-handed cruise in 1913, sail- ing a 28-foot auxiiary cutter from New York along the coast to New- foundland and the .French Miquelon Island. Last year he was skipper of the 45-doot - yacht Typhoon, which looped the ‘Atlantic, crossing from No- va Scotia to Cowes, Isle of Wight, and then returning way of the Azores.

DEMPSEY AND WILLS SIGN CONTRACT TO FIGHT New Ydrk, July 11—Chrmpion Jack Dempsey and Harry Wils, through their managers, today Signed a contract to box for ihe world’s hea- vyweight championship at a time and place to be named later. The contract, which is expected will eventually bring the champion and his negro challenger together in ‘the ring, is of the blanket type. It Tequires the heavyweights to box within six- ty days after tihe acceptance of a sat- isfactory bid extended by a reliable promoter. The time and place for the bout will be announced at or short- Iy after the acceptance of such. bid by the prinoipals or their managers. In today's conference,between Jack Kearns, representing Dempsey, ' and Patrick Mullins, manager of Wills, the Iatter held out at first for the proposals he made at Saturday’s meet- ing, but Kearns was obdurate and Mulins finally capitulated. Mullins desired that bids be limited to those received within thirty days and that the bout be fought within three months after the acceptance of the best offer. . Kearns stated that the offer as sub- mitted was the best ever. tendered by a chhampion to a challenger and left 'the conference with the statement that Mullins could either sign it or drop negotiations for the bout. Mul- lins finally withdrew his objections and placed his signature to the .con- tract, alsp withdrawing his proposal that the bout be fought under the boxing Tules of the New York state Dboxing commission in case the con- test was held in territory not pro- vided with an up-to-date ring code. A clause to the contract permits either principal to take part in any bout that may be arranged for them during the 'continuance of the -con- tract without affectng the arrange- ;rfents for the bout entered into to- ay. . JERSEY CHURCHES PROTEST ° LEONARD-TENDLER BOUT Jersey Cit: N. J., July 11—Five ministers representing the New Jersey council of churches, called on Govern- or Edwards today and asked him to prevent the state boxing commission from issuing a license for the Benny Leonard-Lew Tendler bout, scheduled for July 27 on Boyle's Thirty Acres. The governor told the clergymen that if they could prove the bout was going to be a prize fight and thereby unldwful, he would do everything pos- sible to stop it. Herbert C. Gibson, counsel for the protesting organiza- tion, promised he woud submit a brief tomorrow proving the bout would be a prize fight. |, Acting as spokesman for the min- isters, he told the governdr the rec- ords of the boxers were bad, saying: “Leonard has been in fake fights, and Tendler is notoriously a foul fighter.” The boxing commission meets Thursday to consider Tex Rickard’s application for a license to conduct the bout.
