England. May 11). — Through sunshine. rain and blustering winds. Francis Oulmet, former American ama teur and open golf champion, today battled his way to the round before semi finals In the British amateur cham pionship tour nament. Two of Ouimct's American col leagues were eliminated during the morning and another this afternoon, so that tonight Ouimet. alone of the 14 Americans who canre across the ocean to enter the championship struggle remains to tight. The Americans put out of the run ning today were Dr. O. F. Willing of Portland, George Hotan of Houston and John F. Neville of San Fran cisco. But Ouimet is not the sole repre sentative of American golf still sur viving, for Douglas Grant, who won his matches today, is a citizen of the United States, but a resident of Eng land. Tomorrow morning the eight play ers still in the running, two Ameri cans, two Scotchmen and four Eng lishmen, will play the sixth round, and in the afternoon those who trl- 1 ■ umph over the 18 holes of the morn ing will meet in the semi-finals. Grant is in the lower half of the draw and Ouimet In the upper half, so there is a possibility that the two Americans will fight it out Saturday in the final. The pairings for the sixth round , follow: Bernard Drew against Roger ; Wethered. Francis Ouimet against Cyril Tol | ley. v Douglas Grant against R» P. Hum phries. \V. Willis MacKenzie against Rob ert Harris. Ouimet had two very hard tussles today. He had to go to the home home iu both of them before win ning. In the forenoon "Jack” Ne ville, the California champion, clung to him like the proverbial barnacle, and in the afternoon a cool, experi enced Englishman, C. Bretherton, made a tsound threat to put Ouimet out, Bretherton had him three down at the sixth hole, and the Blender Bostonian had to battle bravely and well to overcome this lead. Rotan passed out of the tournament in the forenoon, beaten 3 up and 2 to play j by W, L. Hope of Turnbury. Dr. Wilting won his morning round j against R. W. Crummack, but Roger Wethered, a popular hero in hts home land, ousted the Oregonian dentist before an immense gallery in the aft ernoon. Willing, who had been sur prising everyone by the sharpness(of his putting would have won had his ef forts on the green been fruitful of suc cess he experienced in the earlier days of the tournament. This afternoon he missed many of them, and short ones at that. He got down a 15 footer for a birdie 3 to win the first hole from Wethered. but after this j all the good putting was done by Wethered, who obtained a birdie on the second with a long putt, and a birdie 2 on the fourth with a 30 foot- I er. Thereafter, whenever Wethered missed an easy putt and opened up an opportunity for Willing, the Ore- j gonian followed suit. There was just one exception—on the short four teenth—where %'ilIinK temporarily squared the match with a birdie 2. Then he missed a four-footer on the , fifteenth. Hard luck hit Willing at the six teenth, where his fine approach was stymied by Wethered, enabling the Englishman to become dormie 2 up. Willing could have won the seven-' teenth and staved off defeat with a two-foot putt, but the ball would not drop in the cup. With Neville, it was different. Grey-haired old veterans of many tournaments said they had never seen the equal of his putting since Walter J. Travis came to England and win ' the 1904 championship. On seven greens one putt suffered for '.lie Cali fornia n. Although he often drove Into the rough and was bunkered badly on several occasions, he gave Ouimet a terrible scare from which the Bos tonian never cnilte fully recovered until he had chipped dead to the • ighteenth hole.

May !i. —The Irish will be represented on Sat urday’s Milk Fund card by Jack Me Auliffe—the greatest lucking heavyweight boxer which the ring has produced in more than a decade. If 1 knew for a certainty that this youngster was proof against stage flight —that he had real stamina—and was possessed of all the courage credited to him, I'd make the prediction now that he would whip Luis Firpo without drawing a breath in the effort.

Most Promising Heavyweight never has gone against so gigantic and powerful a tnan as Firpo—and I’ve never seen him under fire In a real battle, and, therefore, I don’t Just know how he’ll show up in the matter of courage and ability to take punishment. But I've got a well developed hunch that they don't make ’em gainer than .lark McAuliffe. and that the faster the going the better he’ll get. I .earns (Illicitly. My interest in this levelheaded, modest, likeable Detroit kid is espe cially keen because in a certain way he's ‘a pupil of mine; because many of the tricks he uses in defense and plso in attack are those which I taught him. It’s more than 18 months pince I first saw McAuliffe. I dropped into Detroit about that time, met up with Mark Shaughnessy, an old friend of mine, and he told me that he trod In his care a youngster who appealed to him as a possible heavyweight champion of the world. He wanted me to look him over and because I know (hat Shaughnessy never will waste time with any fistic performer unless he is possessed of definite qual ity, 1 went to the gymnasium and watched McAuliffe in action. He is a natural boxer—If I ever saw ore. But at that time he w&s somewhat crude. Ho realized It and asked me to leach him some tricks. I spent a long time with him right then and there. Six months later I again went to Detroit and saw McAuliffe. The im provement in him was startling. The Irish kid was stepping around with bewildering speed, shooting out hia left hand with the rapidity of a vet eran, feinting, sidestepping, ducking and blocking in a way that seemed al most unbelievable to me—and withal, demonstrating a beautiful right cross and crashing left hook. Kverything I had taught him he has mastered almost completely. McAuliffe has a fault—yet Shaugh nessy isn't so sure It’s a fault after all. Anyway, when the kid is bounced rather hard by his opponent, there Is always the possibility that his Irish temper will flare up and that he will abandon boxing for slugging Hoosiers Purchase Coast Shortstops Indianapolis, May 10.—Harold C. Janvrin, shortstop, was purchased by the Indianapolis American association club today from Seattle of tho Paci fic Coast league.
