teams played snappy'ball.
“In the second the visitors threat-
.ened to score when they made three
hits. but Gravison. on a beautiful
throw home caught a runner who
had tried to score. It was the only
time that Welch was in trouble.
He had perfect control and gave no
bases on balls and struck out seven
men.
The locals scored one run in the
fourth" on Mullaney's pass, an error,
and Finnegan's long sacrifice fly.
The last one came in the fifth on
O'Connell's pass and Casserly's lofig
triple lie the horse gate.
Finnegan and Casserly played

THE ROMMEL CHANCE
One of the outstanding hurlers in
the present American League chase
has been Eddie Rommel of the
Athletics.
The excellent work of the famous
knuckle-ball artist has done much
to keep the Macklan horde up
around the top of the heap.
Not only has he been used in
regular turn. but out of it as well.
Time and again he's been sent in
as relief pitcher in a desperate at-
tempt to pull a game out of the
fire. And he‘s often succeeded.
During the lengthy absence of
8am Gray from the astivlttes. it was
Rommel along with Slim Harris.
who kept the team in the running.
. O O
0n the recent western 'jaunt
Rommel was the big noise, beating
each ofthe teams in that sector and
not losing a tilt.
‘ o 0 t
' ‘ ' A GREAT RECORD.
It was in 1922 that Rommel hung
up his sensational record of 27 vic-
tories with a team that stayed
around the bottom of the heap all
5 season. 'He lost 13 fra-ys.
All things considered it was one
of the premier pitching feats staged
in the Johnsonian circuit in quite a
stretch. Winning that many bouts
in a season is considered an unusual
task nowadays for any hurler. let
~ alone putting it over with a. lowly
second division outfit.
Since then Rommel has only
hurled so-so bail. until this year
.when he got off to a flying start
hand has clung to the pace down
' through the months.

Former Champion,
Dan’t Overlook Oulmet in Amateur Tourney
Now Wearing “Cheaters,” May Emulate
MacFarlane
By JOE WILLIAMS.
Since the pliable dope as applied
to golf is not to be trusted. it may
not be entirely silly to string along
with the festive hunch.
Which is this: A bespectacled
player. Willie MscFarlane. won the
open golf championship this year.
A bespectacled player. Francis
Oulmet, will be the foremost chal-
lenger in the national amateur.
In MacFarlane's case the chest-
ers have lung been a part of his daily
accoutrement .and the victory which
he achieved therefore can not be
ascribed directly to them.
The consideration is different in
Ouimet's case. For several years
his eyes have been bad. but it wasn't
until this year that he made an in-
vestment in optical Windshields.
.chring them in tournament play
for the first time he came within a
single. sparse stroke of tieing Mac-
Farlane and Bobby Jones for the
open championship at Worcester.
Had any one of several longish putts
which rimmed the cup gone down he
would have been in the play-off.
Resemblod Oulmet of Old.
Ouimet's play in this year's open
was distinctly thrilling. Shot for shot
he was as formidable as any man
in the field. For the first time in five
years he looked something like the
Oulmet of old. There was more to
him physically and there was s. ro-
bust flrmness to his game that had
been lacking in recent years.‘
From tee to cup he was the equal
of Macifarlane, Jones and the rest.
That he didn't win was due to the
fact that he didn't get a break here
and there. while the others did. No
player ever won a championship at
golf without getting a sizeuble quo-
ta of breaks. _
It has been 13 years since Oulmet
won an open championship and 12
since he won an amateur title.
Quito properly be is classed as one
of the veterans of the game, tho in
years he is still a young man. Qui-
met was little more than a mere
kid when he leaped to internation-
al fame in 1913 by beating Vnrdon
and Ray in the notable play’off at
Brookline. -
The following season he won the
amateur by defeating Jerry Travers
in the finals. 6 and 5. Since then
he has not figured prominently in
major American events. In 1915 he
failed to survive the third round. In
1916 he was not among the quail-
fiers. In 1919 he went out in the
third session. In 1920 he went to the
finals but was handily beaten by
Chick Evans. 7 and 6.

W8 TOLD T0 BILLY EVAN
"That's easy, John L. Sullivan is
the greatest figure in the history 01"
the ring." replied Kilrain. when I
asked him whom be regarded as the
greatest fighter of all time.
"Sullivan did more to popularize
the fight game than all the other
champions put together. He was a
real fighter and a real champion.
"In my,day the tight game wasn't
in very good standing. Many of the
bouts were held in secret before
private audiences. The more men.
tion that a fight was to take place
was enough to call out the sheriff
and police reserves. ‘
"Fighting was regarded as a brut-
al sport. Of course the bare knuckle
stuff was largely responsible for
such a feeling.
“When fighters bleed freely. and
their bodies become covered with
blood. it isn't a very pleasing sight.
even though neither of the contest-
ants is in bad shape.
"The contact of flesh with flesh
as was the case with the bars
knuckle fights. usually resulted in
much bleeding. This made it seem
brutal. Too much blood put the
days of early fighting in bad.
"The use of the gloves as requir-
ed by the Marquis of Queensbury
rules was the first step to elevate
the boxing game. To no one more
than John L. Sullivan should go the
credit of popularixlng the new rules.
a drastic departure from the bare
knuckle days. ‘
“Can you imagine a present day
champion touring the country and
offering a good sized purse to any
fighter he failed to stop in four
founds?
"Well that is just what John L.
Sullivan did when he was at the
heighth of his career.
"Sullivan's offer created intense
interest in boxing wherever be ap-
peared. Aspiring heavyweights
everywhere jumped at the chance to
win a nice piece of money and a
lot of fame by staying four rounds
with John L. As far as I know Sul-
livan didn‘t. pay out any money.
"These exhibitions. in which there
was plenty of action, gave the gen-
eral public a better impression of
the fight game and did much to put
it on a good footing. ,
“Sullivan was a real man and a
fighting champion. It's too bad
there haven't been more like him.
Now, when a fighter wins a'cham-
plonshlp he gets a couple of bushels
of camphor balls and hides it away.
"The fight game has had a lot_ot
fine men in it. but none have done
more for the game than John L. 1

lNSlDE GOLF
By CHESTER HORTON
. "Golf‘s most successful teacher.”
says "Chick" Enos.
Maker of 51 Golf Champions.
When does a. wood club exactly
fit a golfer? And how can the player
definitely felt when he has a wood
that is precisely
'————t right for his;
gswing. These
lquestions are for-
.cver bothersome
to the golfer, so
;much so that
‘ :many players be-
fcome so doubtful
labout woods that
'ihey never really
'know just what
‘ kind of a club to
use in order to
have the feeling
they are exactly
right with it. It
________ is of considerable
importance to
have woods that fit you. The pro
knowns in an instant whether a
wood suits ills swing. just as a vio-
linist can thrum a string and tell
it it is in tune. Woods are of twu
weights—light or heavy. The shafts
are of two kinds—stiff or whippy.
in subsequent articles this weekd
shall try to make it easy for you to
tell which of these qualities you
want in a club.
