Aug 27. <U.R>— Thirty-one women golfers, outstanding representative) of the middle and far west, today began their assault oil the western golf championship, which lias been a possession of Mrs. Leona Pressh-r, Loe Angeles, since she defeated a strong field at Lake Geneva in 1927. Pitted against the title holder in the first match of the championship flight today was the Ohio state champion. Mrs. Curtis Sohl, Columbus. \ victory over the Ohioan is not expected to lighten the task of confronting the Californian, for among others in the tipper bracket with her are four of Chicago’s outstanding women players. Virginia Van Wie. June Beebe, Virginia Wilson and Mrs. Lee Mlda. Mrs. O. S. Hill, Kansas City, who won the qualifying medal yesterday with a brilliant 77 that set a new . record in women's play at Mayfield, , was to meet Mrs. Harold Foreman, j Chicago, in the opening lower bracket match. , Another lower bracket battle be tween Mrs. Julian W. Tyler, Cleveland city champion, and Mrs. Larry Nelson, Dayton, whose card of 80 placed her third among the qualifiers, was predicted as one of the most hotly contested of the day. o Night Tennis Playing Is Popular In This City ( — ■ I After about a month of continuous ■ trial, night tennis play was regard- - ed as very successful. Bob Mills, local racquet wielder, decided he did not get to play enough tennis after work, and going in to deep concentration came to the top with the idea of playing at night. At first he was not backed by the hardened veterans of the court. Then with the kind assistance of the city light men he placed three lights up. Many excuses were offered as to why the lights should be taken down. By and by a few of the brave and hearty souls ventured forth and play ed at night. Soon every one wanted to know how they fared and were very much surprised when they said they enjoyed the play. , Then more and more players ventured forth on the gredt adventure and found to their great amazement I that it was great fun. So at the end of a month of play the City Court < Club for Night Players is extremely successful. _..O— Six Teams in Battle For Printers’ Title c Indianapolis, Aug. 27.—(U.R) —Six J teams remained in the running today for the Union Printers International - baseball championship. ■ Two teams.
