They salted down Barney's victories over Ray Miller, Frankie Petrolle (brother of Billy), Bat Battalino, Goldie Hess, Johnny Farr and Tommy Grogan, and came to the decision that the local boy couldn't match the cleverness and long experience of Petrolle, the Fargo "trial horse' of the lightweights. Chicago boxing scribes to a man also agreed that they had to string with the veteran in preference to the youthful Ross. When the two met, the aging Petrolle, instead, was no match for Ross. With a title bout at stake, Ross took every advantage and left Petrolle a sorry sight at the end of the 10 rounds. He convinced the writers and fans that Chicago did have a boxer of championship qualities.

On that date "Poosh 'Em Up" Tony is matched for a 10-round title battle with Barney Ross, Chicago's contender for the crown and unquestionably the outstanding challenger in the 135-pound division.

HICAGO, 111.

(U.R) A few I notes on Johnny Goodman, the new national open golf champion. He's 23 and weighs 150. He's 5 feet, 6 inches in height and looks stocky. Has blond hair parted on the left side and slicked down. "Ramditti" is Ms favorite expression and that's what he says when he feels like Cussing.

He's strictly an amateur and plays golf for the fun of it. After winning the open title with 287 strokes, one under par for 72 holes, in which 36 of them were played Saturday he went back to the North Shore course and played another 18 holes Sunday with friends. He shot a 36-38-74, two over par, on Sunday's round. Wont Torn Pro Although he could make between $30,000 and $40,000 by turning professional, he has steadfastly resolved to remain amateur. One of Ms greatest ambitionr is to play on the 1934 Walker cup team which invades England.

The U. S. G. A. politely snubbed Goodman in selecting the 1930 and 1932 teams, although he has beaten Francis Ouimet, Charlie Seaver and Maurice J.

McCarty, three members of the 1923 team. He got a- greater kick out of winning the open tournament than beating Bobby Jones. He says the Jones victory only served to show him how much he had to learn about golf. He realized after watching Jones putt, that he was a novice on the green. He tried to copy Jones' putting stance and stroke, and has been at it faith fully.

He's an ex-caddy and was destined to work in a meat packing plant until he learned to play golf. He won his first tournament with a borrowed set of clubs. He hitch-hiked his way to Denver to win the trans-Mississippi tournament First Major Title Until he. won the national, open he had never, won a major golf title, but he had beaten Bobby Jones, played in the final of the national amateur and finished low amateur in the 1932 national open quite a record In itself. He works as a special agent for the National Thrift Insurance co.

when he's in Omaha. Pete Lyck, secretary-treasurer of the company, is one of his closest friends. Unassuming and modest, when the championship trophy and golf medal were presented to him, he boyishly blurted out before 4,000 persons, "Am I' happy" and set off an electrical ovation. The day before the tournament opened he was tired after a practice, and he flopped on a hard bench in the locker room and slept soundly for two hours while raucous laughter and high voices echoed back and forth over 3.2 and upwards. The same control over his nervous system stood him in good stead in that gruelling bat tle down the stretch when Ralph Guldahl, St 'Louis profes sional, came within a stroke of tying him.

Has Si-Hole Record He Mts.a long drive for a little fellow, and is very accurate which fact helped him on North Shore's long narrow fairway. Off the tie and on the green he's best His 66 in the second round tied the record for open competition made by Chick Evans in 1916. equalled by Gene Sarazen last year and tied by Walter Hagen in the 1 final round Saturday. His 211 at the end of 54 holes was the lowest score ever made at the three-quarters mark in the open. He is the fifth amateur to.win the open title, the others being Ouimet Jerome Travers, Chick Evans, nd Bobby Jones.

Ruppenthal is weir known In Madison, having appeared here on several cards summer when he made a big hit with customers.

He is fast, game and rough. His opponent, Adamson, is much the same sort of wrestler. Both are after a match with Jack Reynolds, welterweight champion, and such a bout may be put on here later in the summer. Demetral will concede size, youth and strength to Zavinoff and then try to win with superior wrestling knowledge. Zarinoff is a beautifully built athlete who is ranked among the more promising of the younger heavyweights.

His real campaign for a shot at Canzoneri's title started in July, 1932, when he beat Ray Miller in 10 rounds. He followed that with two-round knockout of Frankie Petrolle and then decisioned Battalino, Hess, Farr and Grogan, the last three styled as warmup bouts for the Billy petrolle fight. When the experts name the probable favorite June 23, youthful Barney is going to get every consideration, regardless of the fact that Canzoneri is champion, and not so long ago was voted the greatest of all champions. Canzoneri knows only too well his coming foe is very apt to menace his throne, for he personally "scouted" Ross against PetroU.

The make-up of this hole, if you study it carefully and draw from it the sharpening of your golfing intelli gence which it should bring about. is a great golf lesson for you. We are to drive from this tee. We have 425 yards of mileage here, with threes to the left, rough, a fence and out of bounds to the right, the tee beautifully elevated; nothing in front of you but the opportunity for thrills.

Just to give you a chance to test yourself on that, I'm not going to say until tomor row, Meanwhile, let pop off the four drives.
