Nichols 4 and
McCreary in ~ Deciding Tilt
Bill Reed Jr. Has Tough Luck; Fred Gronauer Captures Third . Place.
It was “after you, my dear Alphonse,” and “after you, my dear Gaston,” at. Broadmoor yesterday as Dick McCreary, Country club, and Clayton Nichols, South Grove, each three-putted the 18th green to tie each other in the District tournament. They will play over the same course at 3 p. m. Monday. Clayton finished first and he
didn’t know at the time how polite that six on 18 made fifa He only
knew it spoiled a beautiful card, for.
“until that double bogey he was three under par and seemed a cinch for a 69. He blistered the front : nine with a 33, two under, got another birdie on 14, and |didn’t drop a stroke until the 15th. He made it up right away with a four on 17, then blew two shots when he failed to reach the last carpet|in two and took three putts.
Had 221 Total
But the 71. gave him a 54-hole ‘total of 221, a shot ahead of Fred Gronauer, Pleasant Run, whose 70 gave him 222. Fred parred the first eight holes, got a bird on nine, another on 12 and still another on 13 to be three under par with five holes to go. He missed a three-footer for a deuce on 15, then misjudged his
second to 16 and got his only bogey of the day. On 17, an easy par five, he was over the green in two and couldn't get.close enough for a hird coming back. He had to be satisfied with a 70, the best round of the day. He likewise wins third low gross. Knew His Job Dick MeCreary knew what he had to do.| He was out in 37, two over par, and had to come in with the same figures, even par, to beat Clayton. When he caught a buzzard seven on 12 things looked dark. He then had to play the remaining holes in one under, par for a tie. So he immediately got al birdie on 13, . then threw the stroke away with a fost on 14. On the short 15th he was in the trap and it looked like curYtains. But he exploded to within “five feet of the pin and got his trey. He had a break on 16 when his short pitch hit in front of the green instead of on the soft slope. It rolled up for a give. On 17 he got a beautiful drive, slapped a three iron near the green and pitched and putted for a birdie.
Needed Par Badly
Needing a par for the lead, he drove 280 “yards, clicked a chip to within eight feet of the bucket, then tried so hard for his third straight birdie that he slid past the cup.
and missed a short putt coming.
back, for a 75 and another 221. Except for Bill Reed Jr., who was tied with Dick after the second round and needed a 74 to win, only two or three players were conceded a chance. And. when a blinding, driving rain made a swamp of the course early in the afternoon, those 221s looked better and better. The storm ruined the efforts of everyone on the course at the time it broke and so slowed the fairways and the rough that even Reed could do no better than 77 though he started after the worst was over. But. Reed never stopped trying, even after a soggy six on the first hole and a five on the second. He made the turn in 39, four over par, and faced the job of coming back one under par for a tie. He dropped nother shot on 11, made it up jon i got down a nasty 10-footer for is par on 14 then three-putted 15 to make it nearly impossible to catch the leaders.
| 5 Faint Hope Fades
| What faint hope was left faded when he failed to get a birdie on 17.
He finished with a par for a 77 and
54-hole total of 223. Wayne Montfort got better every ay. He had rounds of 76, 75 and 73 yesterday to take fifth. Phil albot was in the worst of the storm nd ended with a 76 for a tie for ixth place with Mike Pollak at 226. Johnny Simpson played in the same wet foursome with Reed and had a seven on the first hole and. never quite made it up. His three-day total was 228. A third member of the foursome was Johnny McGuire, who ended with a 76 for 229, and the fourth was Ed Eaton, who had a 79 for 230. Bob Foist, Franklin, one of the three to shoot Highland in 72 on Tuesday, took a 78 yesterday for 229.
Other leaders were Paul Gentry, |
94 for 231; Dick Keil, 75 for 232; Bernard Burch, 79 for 233; John

Ross Bout on
Card Tonight
Fights, Postponed From Last Night, at Stadium.
Heavy rains caused the postpon-

featuring Barney Ross, world’s welterweight champion,
Woods of Detroit scheduled for Perry Stadium last night. have announced that the fight will be held tonight regardless of the weather. The stadium had already been leased by the Kingan Reliables and the Indianapolis A. B. C.s for a baseball game this evening, but both clubs consented to give way to the Ancient Order of Hibernians who are sponsoring the mitt show. The advance sale of tickets indicates that a large crowd will be on hand to witness the nontitle contest.
Rain or Shine
Whether it rains or shines, the fight must be held tonight as the Indians will be home tomorrow to play the Minneapolis Millers in a night game. Ross tipped the scales at 143 pounds and Woods at 148 pounds when they were weighed in at the Washington A.-C. yesterday. An argument arose when Tracy
Cox and Frankie Hughes weighed
in over weight difference. It seems that the articles called for Hughes to scale at 143 pounds but he was 13% pounds beyond this limit. Cox at first claimed a $50 forfeit, but later when he learned that the money would come from Hughes’ end of the purse and not from the commissioner, Sam Murbarger, hé waived his claim. Other fighters who weighed in at the same time included: Paul (Tennessee) Lee, state featherweight champion, 127 pounds, his opponent, Jimmy Buckler of Louisville, Ky., at 129 pounds; Elza Thompson, the Negro heavyweight who made such
