TIMES GOLFERS SHOOT CONSISTENTLY IN SEMI-FINAL ROUND

FINAL ROUND IN MUNI TOURNEY ON HMD LINNS Caddies Shoot Good Games and Are Among First Four Leaders. Sixty-three players were to fight it out today in the last eighteen holes of play at the old Highland course in the Times municipal golf tourney. With thirty-six holes of the meet completed the probable winner seems to be among the first four or five golfers as the leading players have played consistent golf and hold a margin over the others almost insurmountable in eighteen holes play unless something extraordinary happeps. south seems to be having its day th s season in the golf world and the Times tourney is running true to form in this respect. Three young players' are among the first four for thirty-six holes. P. Sparks, a sharpshooting caddy, leads the field with a score of 161. He has. a one stroke advantage over L. B. Schmutte, another fine caddy player, and Butler, a South Grove star. M. D. Miller, another youth, is in fourth place with 167. A Tough Course The Riverside course which was expected to be more difficult for the competitors to negotiate proved Miller’s downfall. After shooting a 79 at South Grove he took 88 on the more difficult course and is six strokes away from the best score. The caddies are pulling for Sparks and Schmutte, who have shown very good golf. Both players turned in 79 scores at South Grove, but Sparks got an 82 at Riverside while Schmutte took 83. Butler who has become the most feared player in the meet, shot at 81 each day and is In a position to step out and win. L. M. Gasser is fifth with 171, D. Sullivan sixth with 172 and Johnny Ferret seventh with 175. Ferree went to piects on the last nine at Riverside or he might be farther up in the running. The prizes won in the tpumey, which Include first, second and third awards, may be had at the Times office on Saturday morning. The first two days’ scores and the total of all players remaining in the tourney are as follows. P. Sparks, 79-82—161; Butler, 81-81—162; L. B. Schmutte. 79 53—162; M. D. Miller, 79-88—167; L. M.

The Tribe will swing back into action at Washington Park Saturday with the Colonels providing the opposition. One contest will be staged Saturday, two Sunday and two Monday (Labor Day).

FIRST PUBLIC FINNS TOURNEY ' IS BIGSDCOESS Eddie Held of St. Louis Wins First National Meet at Toledo. By United Netce TOLEDO, Ohio, Sept. I.—Eddie Held of St. Louis is the first public links golf champion. The young St. Louia star won hia title here Thursday by defeating Richard Walsh, Van Courtland Park, New York City, 6 and 5. While Walsh was having trouble with his putting, Held played stellar golf throughout the thirty-six holes. His driving was particularly brilliant, averaging over 250 yards throughout the day and he was surefire on the greens within eight feet of the pin. He did not miss a short putt during the match. His 37-36 —73 for the morning and 36-34 —70 for the afternoon gave him a 143 for the thirty-six holes, a performance surpassed but once during the tournament. George F. Aulbach, Boston, shot it in 141 in the qualifying round. The interest displayed in this t ornament and the wide range of entt es make it evident that in the future the public links championship is to be contested with as much skill and competition as any of the i. "tonal open or amateur toumaqier.-o. The scores hung up by the players here have been * on a par with performances in bigjer tournaments and were shot over as tricky a course as any of the other national meets. The Indianapolis Southern Grays nSI play at Bridgeport Sunday and a: Maywood on Labor day. Sept. 10. 17 and 24 are open. Address Everett DeMcss, 1407 Blaine Ave.
