High MICKEY WALKER WINS DECISION King Levinsky Flattens "Toy Bulldog" But Walk er Comes Back Strong. By William Weekes (Associated Press Sports Writer) CHICAGO. Apr. 30 OPi Mickey Walker, the grownup toy bulldog of the ring, today was a little farther j along the road leading to a chance ' at the heavyweight championship of .308 :-ine worI. 1 At 31, when most fighters are I about washed up. and at a weight disadvantage of 23 pounds. Walker Pet. i last night got up from the canvas ,720 in the Chicago stadium battle-pit, .600 ! and slugged nls way to a ten round ,560 : decision victory over King Levinsky, ,520 the pride of Chicago's ghetto. Lev ,500 insky had been defeated before, but .458 f none of his conquerors arose from a ZOO I knockdown to go and win. .280 li Near the end of the first round a i crushing overhand right caught the ' , ; Jersey Irishman on the head and as V he staggered back, a looping left noojc KnocKea mm nai on nis oacK. He didn't even take a count, but bounced to his feet and back Into battle. He was so dazed, however, that he wobbled to' the King's cor- fner at the end of the session. - Levinsky was not badly beaten and , the decision was not unanimous, but the prosperity-sized crowd of 19,995, received the split verdict with clam- j orous approval. Referee Ed Purdy voted for Levinsky, and the two ! judges cast in favor of Walker. The j gate was $73,892, of which, after i tax deductions, the fighters received 30 per cent apiece. J . Levinsky held the advantage he won In the first round until the fifth when. Walker began to take charge. He repeatedly stepped Inside Levin sky's almost comically wild right swings, to dig both hands Into the King's body and then shoot to the head as Levinsky backed up. Walker weighed ' In at 173 pounds, to 195 for Levinsky. OREGON WINS FRO 31 0. S. C.

He was replaced by Myron Estill, who al lowed only five more runs. Washing ton garnered 18 hits and Washing ton State 12, one of which was a home run by Estill, Papal Edicts , Tapal bulls take their titles from the first word or plirase of the text, which Invariably Is written In classic Latin. Thus tho bull which bears the title "Ant tquoruin tin bet fidem," Is mimed for the opening phrase which, translated, reads, "He has the fnlth of the ancients." The title of the hull, "Kxsurge," means "Arise." There Is no way of deter mining from Its title what the sub ject matter of a papal hull may be.

The convicted naval officer put his hand on his wife's shoulc'er in an effort to comfort her, but she was still weeping when they left the court room. In the Jury's findings, the Insan ity defense set up in behalf of Lieut enant Massle went by the board. This and the unwritten law had been pleaded by Clarence Da r row, aged leader of the defense, but In vain. Darrow. who came out of retire ment to defend the four, was brief In his comment. "I am very much disappointed," he said. Prosecutor John C. Ket ley's only comment was: "The verdict meets the ends of Justice." When the short court rocm session was over. Darrow met Kelley and ex tended his hand saying, "I certainly never expected It." Later the veteran criminal lawyer remarked. "All I can say Is that I am disappointed. I don't sec how they could do this." Mrs. Korteseiie Brave Mrs. Fortescue, mother of Mrs. Massle, heard the reading of her destiny without flinchhig. She turn ed and spoke to Jones, who was standing beside her. Neither Jones nor Lord showed any sign ot feeling as their names were included in the findings.

Interest, variety.. ; ' ; f , . ,, , Not long ago Eddie CoQllh wrote" and asked me for the: funniest golf story I knew, I was present when this one developed; so I gave It to Mr. Conlln at first hand. It was at Oakmont, In the Na tional amateur championship of 1925 the one where Watts Gunn became hypnotized and shot round after, round of the most devastating golf ever seen In the amateur classic, . itrNMXO Wild . s Watts' playing In his first major tournament was matched In the first round with Vincent Bradford, a Pennsylvanlan; and was trying altogether too hard to steer his shots at the beginning. He was 3 down through the eleventh hole of the morning round. Then, some thing happened. Watts went into ' a sort of trance In which it ap." peared utterly impossible for him to do anything wrong. He established a world's record by winning the next FIFTEEN . holes in succession;' Bradford did not get even one half from the eleventh green to the twenty-slxth,Lt where the slaughter ended, 12-10. Watts went out with' Jess Sweet ser In the next round; and he was 7 up on Sweetser at lunch-time. In the afternoon. Watts fired eight con secutive pars end then a birdie at the famous Slwanoy player, win ning 10-9. This was the worst drubbing Sweetser, one of the greatest match-players American amateur golf has produced, ever got. . ' Next day,, in the third round, Watts began to regain conscious- i ness, and Dicky Jones gave him a hard fight. Watts was 2 up going to tho eighteenth in the morning round" and Dicky won that with a birdie 3, reducing the lead to one hole as they went to the clubhouse. . , DELUSIONS ' This evidently was preying on Mr. Gunn's mind as Jess Sweetser, ' accustomed to start Dicky 3 un in club-mate of Jones, Who was suddenlv SDOke un: ' "Say I ought to - telegraph' Dad -tnat l' won. , n0n't bother." advised Bobby jones.
