Excellent Field to 1923
Western Golf Classic.
L.EVELAND, July
28.—Chick Evans
today won the
western amateur
championship for
the eighth time by
defeating Hamilton
Gardner of Buf
falo. 6 up and 4 to
I play, at the May
field Country club.
To make his
eighth victory the
) greatest number in
any K011 cias91c
ever won by any
one, he waded through a fine field. in
eluding the national champion, Jess
SWeetser, who pushed Evans to better
t*an par golf, as did Gardner most of
today.
Gardner played excellent golf, ex
citing the admiration, openly express
ed. of Evans, who played four better
than par on the 16holes, finished In
the morning round, and was three
tinder the 13 holes he finished this
afternoon. The champion jhst stead
ily tightened up on his younger op
ponent until, with a birdie two on the
short 3lst, he became dormie five.
Chick Lays Four Stymies.
■Vot only did Evans play well under
par to down the doughty Gardner,
but he laid his younger opponent four
stymies in the 32 holes, winning the
30th hole by virtue of one. only halv
ing the 26th despite another which
Gardner cut around for a three from
i lght feet away and conceding the
other two, which might have put
Gardner further back in the race.
rhe contest whs remarkable In that
although the hofes played out made
a total better than perfect figures,
four holes were conceded because
they had been ruined by bad play or
unlucky breaks. Evans and Gardner
both drove into the creek on the 415
vard fifth hole, and Evans had to drop
back. He went in again from'a faulty
lie and conceded the, hole, for he
could not have done better than six
nr seven, while Gardner was pretty
sure of a five.
At the long 11th hole Gardner again
Was not forced to play to the green,
as Evans got In a bunker, hooked to
a dense woods and failed to get out
°n his third, conceding the hole when
only half way to the green.
On the 28th hole, Evans’ drive was
on the edge of a trap 235 yards from
the green, and lie chose to slice a
brassie to the green from the left
ride. Standing well behind the ball,
which wus so close to the pit he could
not take a square stance, he made
the shot beautifully, but it went five
* feet too far and whh in a deep sand
t rap, whence he failed to recover in
two attempts, so he conceded, and
finally on the last hole played,
Gardner never got on the green, hav
ing put his second in a trap and his
third in another, while Evans was
dead In two and needed only a half
to win.
Pluyetl a Tight Game.
From a match standpoint, Evans
played about ns tight a game as yes
terday against Jess Sweetser, al
though his golf seemed to come eas
ier and tie was never down to Gar
dner. The champion got the lead on
ihe first hole and Gardner was never
able to square the match, finishing
the first nine 2 down, the first
round 3 down, and the 27th In 6
down.
The golf throughout the week of
i he tournament was good, Jess
Sweetser. the national champion,
winning Ihe gold medal, with a score
"f 143, an average of two and one
half strokes to the round better than
(he best score at the recent open at
Inwood. In the semifinals, Evans
and Sweetser both had medal scores
of 141 for 36 holes, a stroke and a
half less to the round on an average
than Evans' record score for the
open championship which he won in
1816 with 286 strokes.

won a decision over Tom Gibbons
after 15 rounds of rough going.
Firpo may train at Atlantic City,
according to Rickard, who added that
he believed the South American would
Include John Lester Johnson in the
ranks of his sparring partners and
that other big heavyweights and fast
men would be selected. Firpo is sched
uled to return to this city about the
middle of August after a tour of the

Rickard today expressed himself
confident that a buttle royal would he
waged at the Polo grounds. Both
men, he asserted, were in wonderful
shape. If anything, he said, Firpo
was In better physical condition be
cause he had been fighting right along,
whereas Dempsey had had only the
Gibbons bout since knocking out
fiarpentier in the fourth round. As a
prc*>f of Flrpo's condition, Rickard
pointed to the- fact that he had knock
ed out Joe Burke In two rounds at
Grand Rapids, Mich., last night.
fcxpcrts today Indicated that nt
present the champion wits their
choice. They pointed out that lie was
a hard, aggressive fighter with a
diversity of blow-s.
Firpo, while a grim and gritty
fighter, still is green. His much
touted left didn't do much more In his
bout with Willard than it did last
winter when he met Bill Brennan in
Madison Square garden. His Knock
out jsiwer was still clinched In his
massive right fist.
Both men have been up against
Willard. It took Dempsey only three
rounds to finish him. It took Firpo
eight.
Dempsey, who was expected to
polish off Glhbons early In their
match, found thnt the slighter man
was aide to go the distance. The ex
pected knockout did not come.
In this connection, however, If was
recalled tluit the champion had per

Johnny Dundee Picked a Fight
With Another Little Boy at Dad’s
Fish Market—It Led to Title
By HORACE R. HARRIS.
Dispatches from New York Friday morning recounting "old" Johnny
Dundee’s winning of the world featherweight championship from Eugene
Crli|ui bring to mind the odd story of the turn of fate when Johnny was
a youngster that led to the Scot-Wop's ring glory, as related to the writer
a number of years ago by Scotty Montieth, the man who made a fighter
of Johnny.
When Joe Carrora — Tor that s
Johnny Dundee's real name—was a
small hoy he was surprisingly handy
with his fists. His father conducted
a fish market in New York.
One day Joe got Into an argument
of words w.th nnother little Italian
In front of the elder Carrora's fish
market. Soon It was an argument of
fists in which Joe finally proved the
better debater.
While the rumpus was going on a
crowd gathered. When it was over,
Joe's father immediately began ex
tolling his finny wares in such a
glowing manner that he had gained
a number of purchasers before the
crowd dispersed.
An Ides.
The next day tne elder Carrora sug
gested to his young hoiwful that he
take on another of the lads for a
little mixup and suggesting was all
thnt was necessary. Joe took on not
one. but two, and his father found
trade very brisk.
The encounters became daily affairs
which were relished by both father
and son.
One morning Scotty Montleth went
to the Carrora fish market to g*'t
some clam Juice which the doctor
had prescribed for Scotty's sick wife.
He saw Joe in one ef his fight*.
:inu though he swore that he remem
bered to get the clam Juice. his wife
declared that he completely forgot It.
Scotty, who was dabbling with light
ers. told the boy to show irp at the
Xorthslde Athletic club the next af
ternoon.
On Time.
At exactly 2 p. m. the next day.
Montleth heard the swaying strains
of “The Maid of Dundee,” whistled in
gay. rich nobs. and Into the door of
the gymnasium, with his hands In his
pockets and his red Ups puckered In
tuning the melody, came a small
Italian lad.
"And what’s yur-r-r nom. wee
man?" queried Scotty.
"Joo Carrora." answered the boy,
looking with unafraid, deep, dark
Italian eyes up at Montleth.
"You’ve got a flghtln' way. Joe,
but Carrora Is na flghtln’ nont, it's
na flghtln’ nom, lad.”
"Joe." continued Scotty. "what
might thot tune be thot you wcr r-r
whistlin'?”
"Something about Dundee. I don’t
know what." rejoined the boy. Joe
said that he heard It sung the night
before by Chauneey Olcott.
"Dundee! Lad. thot s a flghtln’
nom. ’Johnny Dundee.’ wee mon.
thot’a yur-r r nom!”
And It Btuck.

or not Mrs. Mallory, who many tennis
critics I telle ve is slipping very fast,

In firmly convinced that all of them
are tennis players of the highest or
der. Only a Mile, l^englen could stop
them In the world's championship at
Wimbledon, England. Miss McKane.
Mrs. Beamish, Mrs. Oovel and Mrs.
Satterthwalte have each defeated
Mrs. Mallory with apparent ease on
many occasion*. Whether they will
find our conditions over here to their
liking 1*. of course, another story.
