Just before the end, Zbyszko
made a desperate effort to get away,
and Pesek picked him up bodily and
threw him heavily to the mat,
Zbyszko landing on his head and
neck and dazing him so that he was
an easy victim to a head scissors
and wrist lock. He was pinned so
that the referee, Ed Smith, sporting
editor of the Chicago American,
patted Pesek on the back and pro
claimed him winner, although there
was no fall within the two hours.
One, fall constituted the bout.
The Gordon Athletic directors
made an offer of $50,000 for a match
between Pesek and Earl Caddock,
champion of the world, to take
place in Madison Square Garden, at
any time suitable to Caddock.
In the preliminary match, "Big
Bill" Drefy defeated Bill Merky, the
first fall in 10 minutes, and the sec
ond in four minutes and 40 seconds.

Move to Establish
Public Market Is
Blocked by Grocers
The proposed public retail curb
market, which the city intended to
open along Jackson street, from
Eleventh to Fourteenth streets, and
on Fourteenth street,? from Jackson
street to the auditorium, has nor
started to function. City Commis
sioner Ure, foster-father of the pro
ject, does not believe that the mar
ket will be opened. . , J
Mr. Ure explains that in order to
establish this market in fact, as well
as in fancy, it is necessary to have
sellers and buyers. The city hoped
to induce the gardeners to back
their wagons along the curbs and
also, hoped that householders would
attend in numbers.. r "
The grocers have been patronu
ing the gardeners at a private mar
ket place at Eleventh and Jackson
streets and the grocers have ' ad
vised their gardener friends that if
they patronize the proposed public
retail market, relations which have
existed at the private market will
be severed. The result was that the
gardeners refused to drop the sub
stance for the shadow. r ;s

ST. LOUIS BOY .
OVERCOME IN
GOLF TOURNEY
N:!son Whitney, New C:!nns,
Defeats Richard E. Bocken
kamp for Transmississippi
Championship. v
St. Louis, June 14.-vFlaying .the
longest match in the history of the
association and the second longest
in American golf, Nelson Whitney
of New Orleans won the trans
Mississippi golf championship over
tin- difficult St Louis country club
links by defeating Richard E.
Bockenkamp, a St. Louis public
links golfist in 40 holes. The IS
year old St. Louis boy was a tar
tar to overcome, displaying rare
skill with every club in the bag, ex
cept the niblick, and showing un
breakable nerve in tight places.
In the presence of a large gallery,
to which the boy was unaccus
tomed, he suffered Whitney to get
a lead of four up in the first nine
holes and then came back from a
slump and with his rust encrusted
clubs squared the match on the 18th
green with a par four. In the
afternoon, - when the experienced
tournament player, caddied by Reu
ben Bush, southern champion, won
a lead of two holes, the Forest
Fark player holed a 10 foot putt for
a birdie three on the 340 yard 26th
and squared the 'affray with a par
five on the 518 yard 27th."
The pair halved the next four, but
at , the first opening, Bockenkamp
won the 576-yard 31st in par five.
Bockenkamp lost the next two be
cause of bunkers, but squared the
contest on the short ? 34th When
Whitney got in trouble and won the
next hole, only to lose the advan
tage through bunkers on the J6th.
Going to the final hole, 421 yards,
whose fairway heaves with swells
and hollows and whose green is sur
rounded by yawning pits, Whitney
drove straight 250 yards down the
center, while Bockenkamp was not
more than 10 feet behind. The St.
Louisan half topped his massie sec-'
ond, and it rolled across the gre;n
into the road. - -, r ; :-
- This was what the New Orleans
expert needed and he took advan
tage of it, by pitching a beautifully
cut shot to within 10 feet of the fhg.
It stuck as though it had been land
ed in glue, and wheen Bockenkamp
stopped 25 feet short of his third,
Whitney annexed the title by sink
ing his putt for his third successive
three, one under par, the runner-up
taking five. - - v- r
