INITIATIVE INVOKED TO
LEGALIZE BOXING BOUTS
LOS ANGELES, July 11. —Sportsmen
here are preparing initiative petitions
for legislation to establish the legality
of limited round boxing contests
throughout the state. The ballot in
the general election next November is
likely to bear tw-o proposals relating
to boxing, one fathered by the church
interests to prohibit absolutely all pro
fessional ring epntests, the other not
only to preserve the present status of
the pugilists, but to extend the range of
their activities within the state.

Invitation Golf Tournament
At East Lake Will Be Bearcat
Invitations are out and final plans are
being made for the second annual invita
tion golf tournament of the Atlanta Ath
letic club; which is set for July 18. 19
and 20.
The first tournament of the local club,
held last fall at East Lake, was a big
success, but not a circumstance to what
is promised by the coming event. Os
course it labors under the handicap of
being the last invitation tournament of
the year and of coming at the end of a
long string of good events.
On the other hand it has the advantage
of offering to golfers a chance to perform
in a tournament over the best golf course
in the United States—a real golf course,
suited to the needs of real players. Any
players who want a real test of skill over
a tough course are certain to take in the
local event.
The affair will be run along conven
tional lines. Four sixteens will be quali
fied and there will be cups for the de
feated eights in each flight. This means
that every player who beats 160 strokes
in the qualifying round will get in at least
three rounds in the tournament, even if
he loses every match
The first day of the tournament, will be
given over to the qualifying round.’ This
will be at eighteen holes. On the morning
and afternoon of the second day match
play rounds will be in order. On the last
day the semi-finals will be played In the
morning in all flights and in the after
noon the finals.
Here is the announcement:
