OVER WHITE WITH
TO
(By A. Moore Hamilton.)
Hert) White, Medford'., lightweight
fighter, atood up and slugged b&ck
for sir rounds l&at night while
Fran-tie Monroe of KlftmaCh Falls
gave him one of the worst body
mauling seen here In many a year.
White proved one thing last night,
proved that he has one of the chief
requisites of a fighter he can take
It.
Not that White was badly beaten
he wasn't. He lost the doclslon, but
Monroe was hard pressed every min
ute of the fight, and Herb's eh&rp-
shooting left found Its mark time and
again to set Monroe back on his heejs.
In the opinion of most of the fans.
the white-Monroe bout last night
was the fastest, cleanest and best six
rounda of fight seen here In years.
White missed several openings,
when be would ordinarily have put
the sleeper on some guy, but Mon
roe was fast. He moved into White
like a charting lion, and when he
broke he went like a scared rabbit.
The times he didn't get away In time
he got what any fighter can expect
he got jolted, and after the first few
times he was more cautious.
Monroe's body punching took the
fire out of White, who showed marked
slgna of weakening in the last two
rounds. A return bout will be wel
come any tlme:
George Butte didn't show up, so
Koy Harris fought a substitute, Fred
dy Tooley of Philadelphia. Tooley
was heavier than Harris and a vet
eran fighter, far out of Harris' class.
Tooley could have put Harris away
any time after the first few minutes
of the fight, but carried Harris in a
sportsmanlike manner that met with
the praise of the crowd. Without
hitting Harris more than a half dozen
blows, Tooley clipped him one on
the button in the fourth round to
end the fight. Tooley then helped
Harris from the ring and to hie dress
ing room.
Fans expressed the desire to see
Tooley matched here with someone
his own weight and class as Tooley
had all the earmarks of being the
same type of fighter as Leo Lomskl.
He handled himself like Lomskl, and
moved In and out with the same
speed.- He took many blows from
Harris, blows that smacked, but they
didn't bother him. After the fight,
Tooley gave Harris high praise for
his fight and gamenesa, and also re
marked that Harris had some dyna
mite in his gloves.
. Tony Ortls and D. Darling put on a
crappy four rounds, with Ortls get
ting a well-earned decision. Ortls
carried the fight to Darling, and could
hit with both hands. Despite the
olalm of the girls. In the back row
that "They say he dancee like a
dream; that he Just drifts around the
floor like a feather, and a line
gosh, he can Just talk your hat off,"
Darling put up a good scrap. Ortls,
too, was known by the girls, one of
whom said, "He'll be much the beat
looking when he crows up." Never-
thelww, the Ortla -Darling go was full
ox action from start to finish.
Oort Mitchell took a draw with Nell
Dunnottl of Pelican City in the sec
ond bout on the card. The Pelloan
City boy had a sUght edge, the fans
thought, but not enough to warrant
a decision. Glove flew from start
to finish In this match, and a re
match would be In favor. Los Weiss
refereed.
Swede Anderson will wrestle Pete
Belcastro next Wednesday night to
top the card, according to a tele
gram from Belcastro that was read
from the ring. The telegram read,
"I'll break that Swede Anderson's
.neck if he accepts my challenge.
Anderson accepted.
Practice Short Game
First, Advises Gene
By GENE BARAZEN
World Golf Champion
(As told to Alan Gould)
The smartest thing the average
club golfer can do in the spring.
after he has played a dozen rounds
or so Is to look back over his score
cards, note where he lost the most
strokes to Old Man Par, and HOW
he dropped them.
He probably will find that one or
two particular types of shots hurt
his game and his scores. Maybe It
was the short pitch to the green,
maybe the spoon or long Iron, per
haps the approach putt. Whatever
it was, he should detect It and go
out for some practice at the earliest
opportunity or, better still, have the
pro look over his faults again, for
correction.
Even fifteen or twenty minutes of
practice with a certain shot often
will work wonders. '
Tee Shots Easiest to Master
Most golfers when they go out for
practice or for lessons from the pro.
make the mistake of starting off
with the wood clubs. They like to
give the ball a ride, naturally, but
generally the club player needs less
Instruction about how to hit them
off the tee than anything else.
I venture to say 75 per cent of the
average players hit pretty good tee
shots. Oh, yes, they slice 'em or top
'em, now and then, but any man
with a handicap of 30 or better
should get off the tee consistently
well.
He loses most of his strokes
around the greens. That's why I say
to him; Start practicing with your
mas hie niblick and work back
through your clubs. You will find
your groove quicker with a "short'
club than wlWi a driver.
If you have confidence in your
pitches, your No, 4 iron shots and
your spoon shots you will not have
to do much worrying about your
driving.
Win Or Lose Around Green
I attach paramount Importance to
the short game, for I know that Is
where tournaments are won or lost.
I spend hours practicing trap shots,
with my wedge; then X devote a lot
of time to chipping and putting. The
average player. Is he can concentrate
on these features of the game In pro
portion to the time he has available,
will find real Improvement as his
reward.
My short game never was under
better control than when I defeated
OUh Dutra In our special match In
Florida this winter. , Practice was
the reason.

boys of high school age In South Da

Bear down on perfecting your
"short" game and the tee shots
will . take care of themselves,
says Gene Sarazen. He should
