EVANS’ DEFEAT
IS I
C HICAGO. July 25—In the semi
finals for the championship of
the Western Golf Tournament
to-day Edward P. Allis, of Milwaukee,
will be matched with Robert A. Gard
ner and Warren K. Wood will oppose
Joseph C. Leduc.
Two surprises were furnished thf
gallery at yesterday's games, when
“Ned” Allis, the Harvard star, defeat,
ed Charles Evans, Jr., the champion,
and Warren K. Wood, who missed be
ing champion twice, each time by 1
point, nap compelled to play 3ft holes
to defeat Frazer Hale, of Omaha
The pill of defeat so often admin
istered by Champion Evans was
swallowed by him when Allis defeated
him. 4 and 3, in the third round.
Allis Stood Pace Well.
At one time in the afternoon, after
Evans had won the sixth and seventh
holes. It looked as if the champion
might at least produce a tight finish,
but Allis never cracked under the
strain and kept on the even tenor of
his way.
A stiff wind from the northeast was
sweeping the course when the cham
pion and )>4s opponent teed off. Evans
had the honor and hooked his drive
close to a trap Allis pitched his sec
ond 20 feet from the cup and holed
hia put Evans, whose second was to
the right of the pin, took one more.
Allis sliced nis drive for the second
hole into a bush and chopped out
short, but to offset this mistake
Evans, who had driven 260 yards,
pitched his second into the hunker
guarding the green, and the result was
a half in five.
Both were on the third green in
two. Allis being 30 feet short and
Evans 15 feet to the right of the pin
They halved in 4. Allis hooked ills
next drive to the rough, but his sec
ond Jumped the bunker guarding the
green and ran to 20 feet from the
hole Evans took three to reach the
green and ran his approach close to
the hole.
Allis Makes Great Shot.
Allis stymied himself on his third
nnd then made one of the most re
markable shots of the match. Evans'
ball was too close to permit of a Jump
phot, and the hoy played a .follow bil
liard shot, hie ball knocking Evans'
ball a little to the side of the cup and
following in. giving him the hole 4-5
and putting him 2 up.
The home hole was won by Allis,
5-6. Allis, after hooking his drive,
made a fine second, short of the creek.
Allis was 3 up at the interval.
A good start In the afternoon meant
a lot to Evans, but his chances went
tobogganing when Allis won the first
3 holes, and from that point on It was
only a question If the chunky little
Milwaukeean could keep himself at
concert pitch, as with a lead of six
holes he could claim membership in
the "I should worry” class.
JOHNNY C0UL0N STARTS
WORK TO GET IN SHAPE
CHICAGO, July 25.—Physicians
who have been handling Johnny Cou
Ion, bantamweight champion of the
world, have released him and John
will start on to-morrow to get him
self back Into shape for some title
contests. He Is packing his trunks
to-day and on to-morrow will start

Then he will return, go westward and
close his match with Kid Williams
The Logan Square battler believes he
will be ready to don the gloves about
the middle of September.
"I'm going to camp out and live
as close to nature as I can. Rough
it will be my style for a month or
six weeks, and then I'll be ready to
enter the training grind. My physi
cian has released me and says after a
trip into the country I will be ready to
box again. I am eager to get back in
to the game, principally to show that
I am not all in. I have been censured
Tor my delay in the Williams fight,
but I knew I wasn't right, and 1
wasn't going to disappoint a hungry
fight crowd by a poor showing," said
John to-day.

and Brandon and Others
By O. B. Keeler.
B Y way of giving our heroes a
lift on every possible turn of
fortune's wheel during the
present hectic little road trip, It
rained yesterday In Montgomery.
Diagnosis of this seemingly simple
weather note Informs us (1) thut two
games will be played this, afternoon,
unless (2) It ratns some more; which
means (3) that the two-ply grapple
probably w ill end in a dog-fall, so that
(4) the series will have to be decided
to-morrow.
Assuming it doesn't keep on raining.
Most double-headers are split. It is
haul for a good club to w in two games
in one afternoon. It Is nearly as hard
for a decently poor club to lose two.
So it is rather unlikely that the pres
ent series will be as decisive as it
looked before the bottom fell out.

L AMPING the station of the Nash

League standing doesn’t offer much
enlightenment concerning the stal
wart efforts now making by the man
agement to cheer up that club.
For the present season, that is.
1 The Vols are rnorV than a dozen
games behind the leaders, and the day
of miracles is popularly reported to
be past.
And yet the wires buzz with ru
mors and well-grounded reports of
deals by which one William Schwartz
is adding to the power of his pay
roll, and. incidentally, to the tax upon
the exchequer.
The latent noise sounds like Mel
ville Brannon, of the spectacular col-
| lege brand of slab-worker, and the
I idea Is that Schwartz has snared him

It Is known thut other clubs are

he may be destined to travel with

N EW ORLEANS ig now safely es
tablished on the boxing map
as a safe and sane center in
which twenty-round contests may be
held At least this Is the statement of
Dominick J. Tortorich, the Jimmy
Coffroth of the South, w'ho has firm
ly put the game back on a standing
akin to the conditions that prevailed
there in the good old long ago. New
Orleans, be It remembered, had some
of the most famous battles of ring
history decided in its environs, and
threatens now to take just as promi
nent a place as It got when John L.
Sullivan and Jim Corbett, Bob Fitz-
simmons and Jack Dempsey. Jack
McAuliffe and Billy Myer, Fitzsim
mons and Jim Hall and Dan Creedon
and others of that class were bat
tling for real titles.
* * *
TJY sheer force of character and
through demonstration that the
boxing game can be kept free from
scandal, and that it does not verge
into the old class of “prize fighting,"
Tortorich has carried matters along
until he has won over almost every
executive in Louisiana to his way
of thinking, and it is not believed
that there will be any further oppo
sition to Dorn's plan of holding
twenty-round contests from now until
next Spring. And Dom believes he
will be able to show all of the box
ers that it will be strictly to their
interests to pay some attention to the
nice offers that he is going to make
to them.

terweight championship that he pro
poses running during the present
summer and coming fall. These boys
battled ten rounds there July 4, and
Ferns was awarded a verdict that
started a near-riot among the spec
tators, many believing that Denny,
the home boy. should have been
awarded the victory. They are some
partisans down that way. To settle
the question, Tortorich nailed them at
once for a contest over the long route
