By Walt Byera United Press Staff Correspondent Chicago, Aug. 22. (U.PJ Golfdom'g topsy-turvy trlplcheader, the three-in-one All-American tournament, was still In the prelimi naries today as amateurs and women golfers played 18-hole qual ifying rounds over the Tarn O'Shanter fairways, still warm from the blistering five-undcr-par 67 shot by 24-year-old Ed Furgol, a Detroit omatcur, yesterday. The three-ply tournament composed of an amateur, a wo men's open and a men's open began yesterday as 250 amateurs completed 18-hole qualfyiing rounds highlighted by the re markably near-record score of Furgol, whose left arm is 10 inches shorter than his right and whose left elbow is permanently stiffened as the result of an acci dent 12 years ago. Played in the carnival atmos phere of brightly colored tents, pennants, and soda vendors, the AU-American was a twq-ringl show today as some 42 women sought 17 places in the cham pionship flight of their open, and 134 amateurs the overflow from an original 384 entrants tried for near-par scores in order to qualify for the amateur. The women's championship fi nals contains 24 posts, but the because of the outomatic quali - fip.itinn of Pattv Bore. 1943 champion; Betty Hicks, last year s runnerup; Catherine rox, Mary Agnes Wall; Kay Byrne, Jeanne Cline and Dorothy Ger main. The third ring starts tomorrow when about 200 professionals play 18-hole rounds for berths in the AU-American open, where Harold (Jug) McSpaden, defend ing titlist, and Bob Hamilton, the new champion of the Profes sional Golfers' association, will be very much In evidence. Yesterday's huge amateur field made a strong move toward mo nopolizing the available 22 places in the championship ama teur flight by turning in numer ous border-par scores. Twenty four finalists will be admitted but Dale Morey, defending ama teur king, and Chick Evans, for mer national amateur titlist, are automatically guaranteed berths by virtue of their records. Bob Cochran, St. Louis, 1943 runner- up, also was an exempted en trant but was unable to attend. moiSHIRLEY FRY LEADS JUNIOR GIRL'S, FIELD Philadelphia, Aug. 22 U.R Seventeen-year-old Shirley Fry, Akron, O., tennis star and top seeded player in the 26th annual U.

Phono 3277 CLOSE DECISION OVER WILL JOYCE San Francisco, Aug. 22 flJ.R) Perpetual Henry Armstrong, the former triple champion, evened his comeback series with Willie Joyce, the Gary, Ind., boxer, at two-all last night, r'.ubbing his way with one good hand to a close ten-round decision before a capacity house of 10,000 at I Civic auditorium. 1 . Armstrong's once - dangerous in a draw bout ' 1n,u, "'jureu w'tn Slugger White at Hollywood last month, was virtually useless after the third round, he admit ted after taking Referee Frankie Brown's decision, 5GV4 points to 53 4. But his left was good enough to upset 2-1 odds and win his 14th fight In 17 starts this year in his second comeback try, even though the verdict surprised the crowd and ringsiders who thought Joyce had won five rounds and snlit a sixth. The two Negro lightweights, divided decisions in two Los An geles fights last year, and Joyce took a disputed decision at Chi cago earlier this summer. Last night's win put the 31-ye'ar-old Hammerin' Henry all even with 25-ycar-old Joyce and probably set the stage for a fifth and rub ber match. Armstrong assured reporters after the fight that his right was all right" and said he would be in shape for his next bout with Tippy Larkin at Madison Square Garden September 22. There were no knockdowns, although the aging but powerful Henry tried hard for one with his right in the first, before it was injured, and uncorked a beautiful right to the jaw and a wicked left hook in the fifth that had Joyce in trouble.
