U.R) Cary Middlecoff's remark
able recovery of form that en
abled him to win the $10,000
Jacksonville open golf tourna
ment ranked today as the great
est of the winter campaign.
Middlecoff practically was
counted out of the tournament
after the second round when he
stood tied at eighth place among
uie za low scores in tne siar
studded field. But he stuck in
there and at the start of yester
day's final round he was in
fourth place.

out a threc-under-par 69 that
brought him home two strokes
ahead of the field with an aggre
gate 279 for his second straight
tourney win.

Palm Springs. Cal., Mar. 21
U.R1 The Seattle Rainiers, their
batting eyes sharpened by a 15
to S victory over Sacramento,
play host to Portland here today.
Chief Super, Fort Jones In
dian, sent word that he would
not meet Dick Adkins as previ
ously announced. Adkins gave
Super a good beating in Yrcka
last fall and the Indian has
dodged further efforts to get
them together.
Barney Harrie, who has seen
Adkins fight several times and
who is a pal of Super's, asked to
take the match with the promise
that he will give the Griffin
creek fistic hero the "licking of

cus) Bogart against One Round

Burdette and Co Promoter
Owen Thomas announced that,
with this card, a new policy is in
effect. Top matches on each card
will pit out-of-town fighters
against local competition when
ever possible. The past three
cards have been a sort of elimi
nation to determine which local
boxers would be capable of hold
ing down top places, they ex
plained.
Preliminaries will continue to
pit local fighters against each
other in many instances with pre
liminary boys given every
chance to rise to semi-windup
and main event ranks.
The carp, a freshwater fish,
introduced into America from
Europe is a valuable food fish.
