Back When Herman Kel.ur. the almost un known who won tho Master's golf tourney at Augusta, Ga., Sunday, is on old neighbor of mine, back about 10 years ago or more when we both lived Just across tho rond from Glenstone munlclnnl golf course In Snring field, Mo., and both spent a lot of time toting sticks around the IB-hole course. At that time Leonard Dodson, a golfer-gnmblcr of some fame, wns a sort of unattached pro of tho club, as well as being the towns best golfer, and Horton Smith was Glonstonc's best known graduate. He had moved on up to Oak Park, 111. As far as I remember Herman Kclser generally won the caddy tournaments but whenever the city or district tourney came along, with a little prize money up, Dodson always won, Kclsor wasn't so hot under money prcssuro then. He'd -shoot some mlgWy good scores there on Glenstone, but would also turn In some bad ones.

SCPCDOBTO ItKRAI.D A NKWH, KUmih Fslll, Or. TUESDAY, April 9, 1048, T ! Armory Main Event Tussle Slated To Be Alley Brawl The coming glove mutch be tween Big Bob Koncston and Tough Tony Ross, the pair of grapplcm who used their fists to such an extent last Thursday that both needed medical atten tion after tho buttle was over, should bo about the same kind of bruwl. Tholr fight last week was neither rassling nor boxing but pure alley brawling and the switch from bare knuckles to gloves und from mat rules to ring rules iBn't expected to make a whole lot of difference to Kon cston and Ross, Tony is probably the better boxer, in that he occasionally makes a professional ring ap pearance In addition to his regu lar mat llvlihood, but if the box ing advantage of reach means anything, Kcncstqn Is ahead In that department. Bob, however, realizes that over tho route he Isn't tho boxer that Ross Is and therefore re fused to sign for anything long er than four rounds.
