Some rville Eliminated From Tourney

(By The Canadian Press)

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 26-0. Ross Somerville of London, Ont... Canadian amateur golf champion. today was eliminated from the United States amateur golf cham- pionship when Winfield Day of 10s Angeles defeated him one up in their third-round match.

After s, nee-saw battle in which the Canadian veteran usually had s. small lead, the Californian ev- ened the match at the 16th when Somervllle, Canadian a m a t c u r champion and 1932 winner of the United States amateur crown, hooked his tee shot and lock a bogey four.

On the 17th Somerville again hooked from the tee. reaching dccp rough, and could not get his par while Day was on in two and two-

putted. The 18th was a half in par fives. Sandy made the turn onc up

but the match was squared at the 10th when the Londoner missed the green with his approach. On the short 11th the American hoist- ed his tee shot to within three feet of the pin for a win and a one-hole lead. '

The 12th was halved but the determined Sandy rammed home, a 10-foot: putt on the neat i011’ for a birdie to again stand all even. The many-times Canadian champ also won tha 14th ivlicn Day fiuffed his approach. The 15th was halved. - ‘

(361116 Title Fig/it IsMPoTstjToneJX I Until Monday; Talk Of SchmelingMeeting Winner

BY ALAN GOULD Associated Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Aug. 26—WIth a bow of’ thanks lo the weather but ‘

Promoter Mike Jacobs today put off Farr heavyweight title match until next Monday ‘

possibility of matching the winner‘

of giving the German a title shot. until next June, when he hopes lo put. on the long-awaited return Schmcllng-Louis fight, talk of an Octo-

l ber fight was unexpectedly revived.

l Jacobs said he was willing to ‘llfliCh the Louis-Farr winner with

dig "if" was a condition that the Gtrman take the routine challen- gers end of 12 1-2 per cent of the net receipts. Schmeling has been holding out for a 30 per cent "cut" for a return bout with Louis, re- gardless of when or where it is staged.

Joe Jacobs, Schmelings Ameri- can manager, said: “Bchmellng ls ready to fight in October but not for 12 1-2 per cent."

The fistic spotlights shift to Schmeling developed from an in- cident at the session of the State Athletic Commission, which was advised of the postponement of to- night's bout while the principals were being weighed and stethe- scoped. Schmeling, asked officially if he was willingto meet the Farr- Iouis winner, replied:

"I am ready to fight for the title at any time and any place."

Mike Jacobs countered laterwith the proposition that most observ- ers accepted a.s another episode in the ballyhoo. With unfinished business still on his hands, the promoter is known to be reluctant to gamble on a third heavyweight title bout this year. v

ceipts no harm. Jacobs seized the i

excuse of a drizzling morning, plus doubtful weather pIOSPECLS for to- morrow, to make the first post- ponement of a heavyweight cham- pionship match in New York since pugilism was a fugitive sport. There was another down- pour late this afternoon.

All things considered, the delay may mean an additional $50,000 for the "gate" but experts will be

surprised if it goes much beyond ~

$250,000.

Farr gained a nine-pound edge over Louis on the scales Just be- fore the armistice was called. The British Empire champion weighed

207. Louis scaled 19B, only three- ,-

quartors of a pound more than he

weighed the night he knocked out ‘

Jim Braddock for the title two months ago. The rules require they must be weighed and exam- ined all over again next. Monday.

Joe went back into his training routine this afternoon at Pomp- ton Lakes, N. J, Tommy planned daily workouts to keep from tak- ing on any excess poundage.

Louis remained a. prohibitive fa- vorite in betting circles. Some wagers at l0 to 1 were reported. but there was little enthusiasm for the challengers chances, even at that fancy price and with the memory of fairly recent upsets tn mind
