The Fitting Tribute to Skill
A SILVER cup to have and to hold through all
the years an everlasting reminder of great
triumphs won.
In athletic sports, as in other forms of competition,
silver is the accepted standard for ackowledgement
of deeds well done.
Whether in the trophy room of a club, or in the
dining room or den of a well'appointed home, it is
the treasured symbol of permanency, good taste,
and refinement.

The figures of the two leaders represent a best-ball of 65 as against a
best-ball of 68 for all the rest of the field. Mesdames Hurd and Chapman have
not been outplayed on any hole and their birdies on the difficult 3rd, 6th and
16th holes have not even been tied.
The question now agitating Pine'iurst is: will Mrs. Hurd achieve a win
ning 67 next week by getting a 4 on the 420-yard fifth hole, the only hole she
has not so far played in par; or will Mrs. Chapman win by making a 4 on the
fifteenth; or will both ladies have to s;ay here all summer to settle the matter?
FANS EAGER TO SEE BIG
BOUT SAYS TEX RICKARD
The Dempsey-Carpentier contest is
going to be the greatest sporting event
in history, Tex Rickard believes.
The world's greatest boxing promoter
talks of his pet match with all the pride
of a father in a prodigy son.
It is quite apparent that he rated it
as a first-class attraction from the start
when he was willing to put a Half -million
collar around his neck to mjnke the
match .
Rickard smiles in the fact of prob
lems that would drive the ordinary man
to a brain expert.
He is supremely confident that he
will make enough money off the "bat
tle of the age" to pay him for his time
and trouble.
"I had this match in mind the night
that Jack Dempsey knocked out Jess
Willard in Toledo," he said today.
"I've kept my hand on the public pulse
since that day and I was so sure that it
would be a winner that I was willing
to stake a fortune on it.
' ' Sport followers worship idols in their
own modern way. The turnstiles of the
baseball parks and the track when Babe
Ruth and Man o' War perform indicate)
just as much tribute to the modern gods
as the burning of incense in the olden
days .
"Everyone admires the perfect man,
the perfect fighter. The same thrill of
combat that used to pack the amphithea
tre in Rome when the gladiators fought,
fills the modern stadium for football and
boxing, the modern form of showing
physical superiority.
"Dempsey and Carpentier are perfect
types of manhood in two widely differ
ent forms, Dempsey, the rushing tiger
with a fierce attack; Carpentier, the
crafty, wise, fast moving panther.
"The confidence I had that a meeting
between these two would be the greatest
contest of history has been justified by
the interest that has been shown from
the time the match was made.
"We have a pile of applications two
feet high from fans who .have written
in for seats. We must have returned
checks to the amount of $50,000 that ac
companied applications. Among the
first was a letter from the Argentine am
bassador in Washington asking for four
seats for friends from Buenos Ayres
who want to have seats right next to the
ring. Hundreds of applications have
come from Canadians and one of the
best known society women in New York
asked for a ring side box.
It's not entirely from a monetary
standpoint that I believe it will be the
greatest event of history. I'm just as
anxious to see the bout as the most rabid
fan and I'm going to see every rouna
of it."
A NEW RECORD AT RIFLE
RANGE
A new record was hung up at the rifle
range on Tuesday of this week when
Miss Marie Leisy of Cleveland, placed
14 of her last string of 15 shots squarely
in the bull's eye and registered a total
of 149 out of a possible 150 points.
The previous mark was 148 and was
held jointly by Mrs. T. T. Berdan of
Roselle, N. J., and Miss Ann Corlett of
Cleveland, Miss Corlett making her rec
ord last week and Mrs. Berdan last season.
FRENCH'S HARD LUCK
Emmet French, the Youngstown pro
fessional, was beaten in a match this
week but it took three good men to do it.
French lost by 2 down to W. E. Wells
and Harry Croft of Oakmont, and J. M.
Thompson of Springhaven. Incidental
ly, Emmet lost a hundred real spendable
dollars which was to have become his
personal and exclusive property if he had
broken 73. He went out in 35 but took
40 coming in.
