Last American in Tourney Bows in Nineteen-Hole Match. TOLLEY GOES TO FINAL Chicago Star Plays Well in Early Tilt. BULLETIN Bn J „,ted Prree SANDWICH. England, June 14 lohn Dawson of Chicago, America's last remaining hope in the British amateur golf championship, was eliminated today in. the semi-final round by John Nelson Smith. The match went to the nineteenth hole. Cyril Tolley al*o entered the final round by defeating Rex Hartley. 1 up. SANDWICH. England, June 14. ' John Dawson of Chicago, the only | surviving American in the British amateur golf championship, con- j tinued his advance toward the finals this morning when he eliminated A. J. Evans, six up and five to play, in the quarter finals. Dawson continued his steady play of Thursday, with occasional flashes of brilliance. His only bad hole was the fourth, where he required five shots to reach the green and went down in a miserable seven. Four up at the turn. Dawson flashed some sterling play to run out the match. He was on the green with his second and the regulation two putts gave him his par while Evans, after being bunkered couldn't get up in less than three and took five to become five down. Dawson laid a beautiful second shot at the eleventh only four feet from the pin and then sank his putt for a birdie three. Evans required five. Again at the twelfth Dawson pushed his second shot to within a foot of the flag, getting a three to Evans’ four and leaving the latter dormie six. At the long thirteenth Dawson over-shot his second but chipped back to within tour feet of the hole and then went down for a half and the match. MAJOR HOMER LEADERS Klein. Phillies ..

giving permission to transfer a club, that no such vote had been taken, and that therefore, Spiller could not deliver the club to him. Spiller denied that Souther Association clubs were bound by such a rule. Griffith deposited $5,000 last week to secure the binder of the Atlanta club. President John W. Martin of the Southern Association said that transfer of stock could not be prevented by the league directors, but that the transfer of a franchise must be approved by them wuth a three-fourths vote. President Spiller had failed to bring such a proposal before the directors. Under the terms of sale, the club was to be automatically turned over to Griffith after today’s game. Spiller said if there w’as no one to turn the club over to, he would start legal action. Griffith claimed that Spiller had not informed him of the association rule that purchase of a franchise must be approved by the directors.
