There nre four sections on thoso cards, as follows: Winner of round. Aggrenivenei and clean hit- ting. Clever sparring and good de- fence. Diioreditlng for olinchlng and holding whsnf ordered to break. How many points they nllot under each of these sections ut the end of each round it seems impossible to leurn. These cards aro Mipposed to be turned, In to tho commission the day after tho fight. For somo reason tho sport writers are not permitted to ex amine them, so the public Is not tho only ono that Is mystified. ?- - V.. Now York: Charlpii Hahn.

WORLD MOBOPY some: kw aaaaaaaaMsaaaaaaar Sarazen May Not PrVFEP.' As He Plans to Compete Abroad Gene Sarazen may not defend the national open golf championship title at Inwood next June, as he intends to go abroad to compete in the British open event carded the ame month. Gene seems to have decided to regard this matter of.,the change of dates something, bordering on a personal Issue. From time to time lately there have been dropped odd remark and such that have had strangely personal application for the little champion. It is not to be wondered at. Gene is sensitive. Sarazen is on hi way North, not to decorate anybody with niblick or anything like that. In fact, hi mission is said to be quite friendly. But this question of date ha found tender spot. He Is wondering why, just when he is champion, the P. G. A. makes recommendation that quite possibly may prevent his playing, as Hagen and Hutchison and Barnos have the last few years, first In the British open and then In the American event. By the time he reached Jacksonville from Miami Gene seemed to have had his mind all made up. What at first looked like joke on the Brit- ish championship may turn out to be boomerang that will hit the United State golf open square between the eye. The P. G. A. has recommended to the U. S. G. A. that the month always elected for the, British championship, be chosen for the American play. As the profes- sional have backed their request with argument that cannot be con- troverted, there leemi every likelihood that the national open will be moved up from July to June.
