Strong Field Ready for Southern Open Golf Title and Its $12,000 in Prizes 2000 SCHOOL BOYS PREPARING FOR MARBLE CHAMPIONSHIPS FRIDAY Finals Will Be Held April 8 at Liberty Park; Complete Rules Given. Over 2000 boys have entered the city-wide marble tournament, which will start Friday, March 25, at 4 o'clock and be completed Friday, April 8. The initial contests will be held on the school grounds of the city and the winners sent to the various recreational centers for competition on Friday, April 1. The finals will be held at Liberty park, Friday, April 8, at 4 o'clock. Last year's trophy went to Edgar Butcher and second place prize went to Earl Margetts. The rules of the game follow: All games shall be for fair-marbles to be returned to owners after each game. Players shall provide their own shooters and ducks for the games. Material or quality of marbles shall not be prescribed. Shooters shall not be less than five- eighths inch, nor more than seven- eighths inch in diametr. Ducks shall not be less than one- half or more than three-quarters inch eighths inch in diameter: Players shall knuckle down on all shots. Hunching shall not be permitted on any shots-and where called by referee, the shot shall be played over. The referee's decision shall govern in all cases of disagreement and shall be final. Play will be by groups of six, who lag or pink for turns. Groups will lag for a line marked on the ground from a distance of ten feet for the order of their turns in each game. Player t.ossjjig taw nearest the line gets first choice as to his turn, next gets second choice, etc. The ring shall be ten feet in diameter, and each player shall lay in two ducks on a cross line scratched in the center of the ring, ducks to be placed three inches apart on each cross line. Starting the game each player in turn knuckles down on the ring line and shoots-by lofting if possible-to knock one or more of the ducks out of the ring, or to hit the shooter of a preceding player, if it happens to be , in the ring. A player when shooting , from outside of the ring must always j knuckle down from ring line. Ducks knocked out of the ring are i kept by the player knocking them out. Ducks knocked only part way out of the ring will be left where they come to rest and the player following will be permitted to shoot at them. A player whose taw goes outside the ring, at the same time he has been successful in shooting a duck out, will continue shooting from the ring line and is permitted to take rounders. If after a miss the shooter comes to rest inside the ring, it must be left there until the player's next turn. If the shooter on a miss travels outside the ring, the player picks it up until_ his next turn, and may take rounders' on the ring at his next turn. A duck coming to rest exactly on ring line shall be considered as having been knocked out, but a duck with Its center resting on the ground inside the ring is considered still in the i ring. j A player hitting the shooter of oppo- ! nent left inside the ring on a preced- ! ing miss, and knocking the opponent's ; shooter outside the ring, is entitled to pick up one duck for the hit. If he I hits the opponent's shooter out of the ring, that kills the opponent and puts him out of the game, and entitles the shooting player to all the ducks that opponent has won in the game. After hitting an opponent and taking a duck for the shot, or after knocking an opponent's shooter out of the ring, a player shoots from where his shooter comes to rest, providing j his shooter does not go outside the i circle. If shooter goes outside of circle he will continue play by shooting from ring line. Should opponent knock more than one duck or opponent's shooter out of the ring on a single shot he shall be entitled to all marbles going outside of the ring. When a marble is knocked from line in center of ring and comes to rest near the ring line (but inside the circle) it is not necessary that the marble has to travel the entire length of ring when hit by a player following. It can be shot from ring at any angle, but players must knuckle down on Sring line. A scorer must keep accurate count of all marbles each player scores, and the player having the largest number after all marbles are out of the ring w!Jl be declared winner of that gamev The player who first wins three games will be the winner of that group, and the other players are eliminated from the contest. In case one of the players should be "killed" during the course of the game this does not eliminate him from the contest, but only from the game i then fu progress. Entrants secure two blanks from I school principal and fill out, one to ! be kept at school and the other sent j by principal to department of recrea- I tion, 112 city and county building. 5 FIGHT RESULTS (By the Associated Press.)

Dempsey Enters Training Camp Monday Morning LOS ANGELES, March 19.- (By the Associated Press.) - Jack Dempsey will go into a mountain training camp next Monday morning to see if he is in physical shape to attempt to regain the world's premier pugilistic title. And, if so, he is ready to fight any man that may be selected as his opponent-if the purse is right. The big fellow, whose defeat at the hands of Gene Tunney last year upset the sports dope wherever circles are squared, will leave for Wheeler Hot Springs, seventy-five miles north of here, with Gus Wilson, his trainer, and rough it in the hills for several weeks. After that he will gather sparring partners about him and whip his somewhat overweighted frame into condition for a comeback. DETROIT PLAYERS WIN AT HANDBALL Coast Men Give Up Laurels; Baltimore Man Gets Singles. DETROIT, March 19.-(By the Associated Press.)-Handball's highest honors were lifted from Pacific coast holders in the finals of the national i tournament here today. | Willis Kammon and Herman Dworman of Detroit captured the doubles i title held by Lane McMillan and Jack Donovan of San Francisco by winning the finals match from A1 Spiegel and Pete Revelt, a local,team. Donovan and McMillan vacated their title Monday in order to compete in the singles. The singles championship, formerly held by Maynard Laswell of Los Angeles, went to George Nelson of Baltimore, who defeated Prank Burke of San Francisco in the final match. Burke, comparatively unknown in championship circles, made a sensational bid for the title, only to fail in the final unit. The Pacific coast player appeared off form and dropped the contest to Nelson, 21-9, 21-4. Nelson, with an uncanny twist shot, won all his games in straight sets and was never extended. He held his opponents in the week of tournament play j to a total of only 99 points for twelve i games. Burke, whose cannonball ser- I vice had upset some of the country's i best players, was able to count only 13 points against the champion today. First set: Burke 110012 1 02 3-9 ; Nelson 3 00170431 2-21 I Second set: Nelson 2 1 8 5 0 4 1-21 Burke 4 0 0 0 0 0 0- 4 COHEN TRANSFERRED. Official announcement of the transfer of Andy Cohen, young infielder, to the Buffalo club of the International league was made by the New York Giants last week. KIWANIS AMATEUR BOXING CARD AT PRICE ATTRACTS MANY ENTRIES Fifty-Three Fast Rounds Promised Fans; Twenty- Three Bouts Scheduled. Special to The Tribune. PRICE, March 19.-With two headline events, five semiwindups and sixteen preliminaries scheduled in big Kiwanis boxing card to be staged at the high school gymnasium Saturday evening, March 26, plans for the annual fistic! tournament are fast being completed. The fight committee has arranged for twenty-three fights, making a total of fifty-three rounds and forty-six fighters will be seen in action. The headliners and semiwindups will be three rounds each and in case of a draw an extra round will be fought. The preliminaries will be of two rounds each. Two sets of gloves will be used to avoid any de- ,lay between the bouts, so that when one fight is over two new fighters will enter the ring ready to go. The fact that five boys from the East Side high school of Salt Lake City and six boys from Sunnyside are entering the fights is bound to draw a huge crowd, as the fans are assured some of the best fights ever seen in Carbon county. Extra seating arrangements are being provided to take care of at least 600 fans, and at least 400 of these seats will be no further than fifteen feet from the ringside. The balcony will be turned over to the school children, so that all main floor seats can be reserved for adults. The Castlegate Welfare association has donated its hall for the event, the proceeds from which will be used in completion of the athletic field west of the high school. One of the two headliners will be between Richard "Sheik" Davis of Spring Canyon, one of the best scrappers in the amateur class in Carbon county, and "Bubs" Stafford of the East Side high school. Stafford is a fighter of considerable experience and boxed considerably while serving three years in the navy. Davis lias baen training hard for the coming battle and will be in the best of shape for1 the bout. He is fast, aggressive and a hard hitter. The other main event will find Alden Cowley of Sunnyside, former state 108-pound champion, and George Butts of East Side high of Salt Lake and present state 115-pound champion, in action. The boys will weigh 115 pounds ringside: They fought against each other last year at the A. A. U. championships in Salt Lake when weighing 108 pounds. It was one of the best fights in the tournament. Cowley has been waiting for over a year for the opportunity of meeting Butts again and the affair will be more or less a grudge fight, mother of the largest living family, twelve grown children; Mrs. Sarah Woolsey, mother of triplets; Mrs. C. D. White, a member of the Relief society for the longest period. MRS. WHIGHTMAN WINS SINGLES Brookline Woman Adds to Long String of Tennis Titles by Victory. BROOKLINE, Mass., March 19.- (By the Associated Press.) - Maintaining an aggressive style of tennis for victory in three national tournaments, Mrs. George W. Wightman of Brookline added new laurels to her long tennis record on the Longwood covered courts today. She won the women's national indoor singles from Miss Margaret Blake of Lenox, 6-0, 2-6, 6-3. She teamed with Mrs. J. Jessup of Wilmington, Del., to overcome Miss Blake and Miss Edith Sigourney of Boston, 8-6, 1-6, 6-3, in the women's doubles, and then successfully defended the national mixed doubles title in partnership with G. Peabody Gardner, Jr., of .Boston. The titleholders defeated Miss Sarah Palfrey, 14-yea.r-old Brookline girl, and Malcolm T. Hill, Harvard freshman, 6-2, 5-7. 6-2. Mrs. Wightman was the central figure throughout the four hours of competition this afternoon. Since she first came east in 1909 as Miss Hazel Hotchkiss of Berkeley, Cal., the present Brookline resident has figured in no fewer than thirty-two national lawn tennis finals, and today's victories meant that she had emerged a victor in twenty-seven of these engagements. Today marked the first time in eight years that Mrs. Wightman had bid for the national women's indoor singles crown. On her last attempt in 1919 she also was successful. The tide of battle ebbed and flowed in the singles, with Mrs. Wightman showing marked superiority as she swept through the first set at love. All this season she has concentrated on developing Miss Blake's overhead and the results of these efforts were clearly apparent in the second set, in which the Lenox girl snjashed with unusual skill, placing thirteen aces to her credit she squared the match. In the final set, Miss Blake had two good opportunities to break through Mrs. Wightman's service in the seventh game. On the first of these she returned a lob which would have been out and later she volleyed defensively when a smash would have sailed through an open court. That was the turning point in the match. In women's doubles, Mrs. Wightman and Mrs. Jessup captured the first set after a hard struggle. In the second set Mrs. Jessup's volleying became uncertain and the ex-champions were able to win only one game. In the final set, however, Mrs. Wightman dominated the play, forcing matters from the start and calling upon her deadly overhead. CUMMINS BREAKS MARK. ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 19.- (By the Associated Press.)-Jack Cummins, lanky 16-year-old golfer of Cleveland, Ohio,' almost single-handed won the Florida amateur team tournament on the St. Augustine links today when he turned in a 35-34-69, breaking the coxirse record for amateurs and defeating J. Larocque Anderson, Cherry Valley, L. I., and Harry Evans, St. Augustine, 4 and 2. NEW UMPS SIGNED.

"It's a braw nicht, the nicht," is tlhe way one soccer fan, who hailed from the land of the thistle, expressed himself after the Salt Lake-Caledonian game yesterday. The meeting of these teams is looked upon as "Derby day" by local followers of the kicking code, and usually the game is am-- one's up to the sounding of the final whistle, for the boys from the land of j Johnny Bull smote the boys from ayoiat the Tweed, hip and thigh. Salt Lake won the toss and elected to kick. The wind handicapped the Callies, and at half time they found themselves three goais behind, although the game was not as onesided at the score would Indicate. When the teams turned around, it i was felt that the Callies, with the; wind in their favor, would make - amends. From the kickoff, however, , Salt Lake rolled away. The second j half was very much of a repetition I of tlhe preceding session, expecting that Billie Young scored for the Caledonians. Longman scored his second goal for Salt Lake, the final being 6-1 in the latter's favor. The teams lined up as follows: Salt Lake. Callies. S. Tetley g Dixon Mills rb R. Turville Gates lb M. Fox J.

Right from the kickoff the Vikings started to attack the: Bingham goal., registering their first pointer five minutes after the game started, and at half time the score stood 2-0 in their favor.

(Copyright, 1927, Salt Lake Tribune.) ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 19.- For nearly twenty years Bobby Jones, American and British open golf champion, has been wending down the fairways of the East Lake course at Atlanta. If ever a golfer had a "home" course, this one has been home to Bobby. On such familiar ground will the great amateur linksman fight it out against the cream of the professional talent the coming week in the Southern open championship, which carries with it in cash and silver prizes totaling $12,000, the richest purse in the history of the sport. The winner of the title, if a professional, will receive $4000. Of course, Bobby has no interest in the monetary reward-he is playing his home layout, he wants this tournament to be successful and he wants to be instrumental in making this the blue ribbon event of the game. So much so that he is working to have the purse increased for next year's tournament in order to evoke the entries of the greatest golfers here and abroad. FOR HOME FOLKS. Bobby's heart is in this tournament. His dazzling playing has helped "put over" countless tournaments, but here is one he wants to put across big for the home folks. Aside from the huge purse, which makes this one of the great tournaments of the year, the entry is the best ' of the early 1927 season, and matches in caliber any national championship entry. For, besides Jones, there will be Walter Hagen, Bobby ; Cruickshank, Tommy Armour, Gene Sarazen, Johnny Farrell, Jock Hutchison, William Burke, the latest sensa- ; tion in the game; Bill Mehlhorn, Jim Barnes, Leo Diegel and a host of others. There even is a possibility that Jess Sweetzer, the only American-born player ever to win the British ama- i teur crown, may start in the Southern open, thus marking his return to competition after a layoff since last fall. However, Jess ,a former United States i champion, is expected to play in the I amateur-pro matches which will precede the tournament proper, a 72-hole medal affair on Wednesday and I Thursday. j To the general golf public there is I not so much interest in the tremendous purse as there is in the showing of Bobby Jones against the best professionals in the world in another medal test. Bobby won both the British and. American open titles in medal competition and the question the coming week will be: Does Bobby still dominate the entire golf universe in stroke competition? BOBBY MAY UPSET DOPE. It is an axiom of the ancient game that a man playing over his home course rarely plays that layout well in competition. Will this apply in Bobby's case? Ordinarily it works out that way, but Bobby Jones is not an ordinary golfer. Jones has romped the East Lake links in 63. Only a short while bacK he stroked his way around the course v 67. Par is 72. Bobby has nicked this a number of times. Every blade of grass at East Lake is known by Bobby; he has been treading the sod there since he was six years old. On the same course Alexa Stirling developed her game under the guidance of Stewart Maiden, Bobby's mentor. Bobby did not play in any of the winter tournaments-he was too busy with his law studies at Emory university. Now it is spring, and he has barkened to the call, and this Southern open will start the 1927 campaign for the Georgia wizard. This event is assured of success from every standpoint except one. There is bound to be disappointment to the professional who just misses first place, or second or third prize, by a singe stroke, or two. The division of the purse might have been improved upon. First place will be worth $4000 and second place only $1750 That is too much of a discrepancy, for the second or third man to finish might be playing .fully as well as the winner, only to lose out bv a putt hanging on the lip of the cup, or by one or many other breaks that attend the game. DARREN TO TRY TO HOLD HONORS Salt Lake Favorite Is to Meet Denver Boxer Monday Night. Frankie Darren, heartened by his recent sensational victory over Jimmy Hanna, is back in the fight game seriously. That was his announcement yesterday. He has been training diligently and will make his first serious effort at a comeback before local fans when he clashes with Hal (Peewee) Jensen of Denver in the six-round headliner of the Manhattan club bouts at the Hippodrome theater tomorrow night. The bout between Jensen and Darren is rated by the fans as one of the classiest of the season. There may not be the punching that has been seen in some battles, but there will be speed, cleverness and boxing- ability in both opponents rarely seen in Salt Lake. Jensen proved himself to be a proper opponent for Darren when he so far outclassed Frankie Barnes of Grand Junction in a scheduled six-round bout here last Monday night that Barnes' seconds wisely threw in the towel early in the third round to save that classy little lad from further punishment. Darren is very anxious to defeat Jensen, for Promoter Hardy K. Downing has tentatively promised the winner a crack at Jack Andrews' lightweight crown, providing either of the boys can make the lightweight limit. Darren made the limit on the Pacific coast and Jensen claims that he can make it easily. There are five other bouts on the new program, all of the four-round variety. In the semiwindup, Sailor Johnny Chain vs. Joe Gordon, four colored boy, a chance to regain his prestige, lost three weeks ago, when he was knocked out by Fay in a bout at the Sportmen's riot. The main preliminary will be a four-round bout between Frankie Paluso and Kid Rowe of Castlegate. The other bouts on the program are: .Tack Fay will give Chick Evans, local rounds. Scotty McCann vs. Jimmy Kirk, four rounds. Johnny Douglas vs. Billy Beaver, four rounds. JONES' CALM GOLF HIDES REAL BOBBY, HIS FRIENDS DECLARE Great Amateur Temperamentally More Like Ball Player; Adept at Chess. NEW YORK, March 19.-To look at Bobby Jones' rhythmic, effortless golf swing-the quintessence of smoothness-one would not suspect the restless spirit that churns within, says George Trevor. Like Cobb, Jones is burning up inside. Highly imaginative, extremely sensitive to impressions, tautly keyed, Bobby has had heights. His temoerament is more suited to a volatile game, like baseball, than to golf, which demands at once intense concentration and carefree relaxation. Throbbing nerves and a vivid imagination would be fatal to an ordinary golfer, but in the case of a genius, such as Jones, they have enabled him to hitch his mashie to a star. The great artist in any line of endeavor must have imagination. He must possess that indefinable spark which permits him to trans- j late a vision into reality. I Bobby Jones would have starred in any game demanding lightning coordination of mind and muscle, subtle reflexes, a sensitive touch, and a camera-lens eye. His hobbies, aside from golf, are rifle shooting and chess. Within a few weeks after taking up the former he attained extraordinary proficiency as a target marksman. His fondness for working out intricate mental problems, first manifest when he majored in astronomy at Georgia Tech, | led logically to his interest in chess. Frank Marshall declares that Bobby has a natural aptitude foe the game, wherein luck counts least'and I intellect most. Bob loves to play by himself the famous games of Lasker, Capablanca and Alekhine, studying the fascinating combinations of these supreme masters of chess, the adroit moves which turned the strategic tide. This intellectual trend is carried into his golf, although the onlooker will scarcely believe that Bob takes time to think. Only George Duncan rivals Jones in playing speed. Bob steps up to the ball, instinctively takes the correct stance and starts his swing before the racing spectators have caught up with him. There is no irksome delay, no finicky waggling, no walking ahead to judge the lay of : the land, no hesitating as to choice I of club, no preliminary flourishes, j Golf, as Jones plays it. seems absurd- ; ly simple. Bob just walks up to his ball, gives a hasty glance toward the pin and smacks the little white pill on the nose. He epitomizes the effortlessness of art. Jones does his thinking before he reaches the ball. Unlike Hagen, however, he cannot forget each shot as soon as played. Walter anticipates a ! certain percentage of sour strokes to ! a round. Jones-the nearest approach' to a par golfer the world has ever known-does not. Any deviation from the theoretically perfect standard worries Bobby. Flubbed approaches prey on his mind. He cannot dismiss foozled shots as inevitable incidents. The remorseless Robot of the links doesn't admit to himself that! bungled shots are inevitable. j "I sleep poorly during a national) championship," Jones remarked at Flossmoor. "I keep playing every shot over and over in my mind. One hole on each championship course invariably gets my goat. I keep figuring out how to beat that jinx hole. Then I get up and pace my bedroom, smoking cigarets. Naturally, I lose weight fast during a week of high pressure competition. That's why I like to enter a championship overweight. Strangely enough, I find that I play my best golf when emotionally keyed up. When my nerves are throbbing, my hands 'feel thin.' It's when I m phlegmatic and serene that I usually run into trouble." WIDOW OWNS ROCHESTER. William C. Daley, president of a large ! real estate company In Rochester, is regarded as a likely purchaser of the Rochester club, which at present is controlled by a 75-year-old widow, to whom it fell as settlement for a claim she made against. Sam Wiedrick. A trust company has been looking after her interests since she was adjudged incompetent to handle her affairs, and the club has naturally been working at a disadvantage. President Toole of the International league has been trying to find some one who would purchase and operate the club. [ REHG RESTLESS. Walter Rehg, veteran outfielder, who was ! turned over to Louisville by Indianapolis in the deal which sent Bruno Betzel to the Hoosiers as manager, has asked the Colonels to transfer him to another club in the A. A. Rehg is said to have pointed out to Captain Neal that his club was so well stocked with outfielders he would have little chance to get into the game. Rather an unusual request, but Neal told the vet he would see what he could do and Walter was spared the pain of a training trip. FORD PROMOTED, Harry Ford, one of the fastest outfield- ers in the Western association last year, will play with the Springfield Midgets of the new Western association this year, as a result of a deal completed last week with the Okmulgee Drillers.
