BIRDIE FINISH GIVES DIINLAP EDGE OH BOBBY them all, Bobby Jones, at his own cracking game Unheralded and unsung, Gibson Dun lap, a smooth hitting Junior In the Uni verslty of California at Los Angeles, stepped out boldly over the hazardous, seaside Pebble Beach links and took the lead for the first eighteen holes of the two-day, thirty-six hole qualifying t-st with a sensational 69, three under par, and new competitive record for the course. To make it all the more spectacular, the curly-haired youth, who learned his game In Chicago before transplanting it to southern California, followed on the heels of Jones all the way and beat the great Georgian by a single stroke with a dramatic birdie on the treacherous 540-yard home hole. Jones, followed throughout by a tremendous gallery that numbered cloe to 10,000 by the time he finished, came back in 34, two under par, for a total of 70, sinking a good ten-foot putt himself on the eighteenth for his "bird." The ovation for the Cham plon had hardly died down, however, when young Dunlap came striding up, pitching in an eighteen-foot putt that gave him the lead. This stroke was the climax of an exhibition of putting skill worthy of Jones himself at bis best. 1 1 LOUGHRAN SURRENDERS BOXING CROWN TODAY PHILADELPHIA, Sept.

2 (JP). Tommie Loughran, light-heavyweight champion of the world, announced tonight through his manager, Joe Smith, that he would make official surrender of his title tomorrow to the New York state boxing commission. Loughran will request the New York boxing solons to recognize the winner of the Loughran-Sharkey fight in New York this month as the heavyweight champion and successor to the title vacated by Gene Tunney. Loughran announced several months ago he found it difficult to make the weight of the light-heayy weight class and' that he considered he had met and defeated all logical contenders. threat.

Only one stroke behind him, however, was his countryman, Eustace F. Storey, blond little favorite of the galleries, who cracked on the homeward nine, taking a 41 after going out sensationally in 34. T. A. Bourn, of England, needed 80.

Bracketed at 75 with Tolley were George von Elm, of Detroit, the 1926 champion, and two surprising contenders, Vincent of Portland, and William K. Lanman, of Columbus, O. Francis Ouimet, of Boston, an other1 former titleholder, complied a comfortable 76. Two other favorites who found the goings so rough that they are in danger of not qualifying Were Phillips Finlay, of Redlands, CaL, the long-driving youth who was a semifinalist last year, and the veteran Chick Evans, of Chicago. Evans took an 81 and Finlay, who had broken par in practice and been considered one of Californias main hopes, required 82.

Jess Sweetser, of New York, another former champion, finished with 78, but he will need to do as well, if not a stroke better to be sure of a qualifying place. Less than forty players broke 80, but the prospect is that it will take at least a brace of 78s, otherwise 156, to make the qualifying grade, limited to thirty-two performers.

2 (). Lou Meyer, 24-year-old ace of the speedways, today drove to his, second National A. A. A. racing championship by winning the 3fl0-mile Labor day event here.

Meyer led the eight survivors of the original field of thirteen to win by a margin of ten miles over Fred Frame, of Los Angeles. To make the victory an all-California affair, Myron Stevens, Los Angeles newest graduate from the dirt tracks, drove Meyer's second car into third place, finishing some thirteen miles back of the leader. Todays victory carried with it a cash award of $4,500 and 500 points which gave Meyer the national championship by a margin of 130 points. Ray Keech. of Philadelphia, had compiled 1,000 points before he lost his life in the June event here.

Second place paid Frame $2,000 and KOERFEL, MANAGER We take this opportunity of publicly thanking you for your elegant co-operation in handling the enormous crowd that attended the midnight matinee of The Dance of Life at the State theatre Sunday night.

STATE HIGHWAY SLUGS TO BEAT TRACY CITY The State Highway hit Martin, the Tracy pitcher, all over the lot In their game played yesterday at Tracy City, and collected seventeen hits to win the game, 12 to 4. Cummings and Carter each hit four out of five times up, and English and Dunlap Unnoticed Through First Nine. Jones Is monarch of golf, hailed as the one and only as enthusiastically by Californians as he ever has been ac claimed by his Georgians. He gave the big gallery today all or most of the stuff It anticipated, but Dunlap furnished the main thrill, not only because It was so unexpected, but because a comparative novice and a California entry to boot had displayed the cour age as well as shot-making ability to outdazzle the chief dazzler.

The scoreboard watchers began to take notice when Dunlap went out in 34, two under par, and they realized a chase was on when the youngster started back at the same fast clip. Jones, out In 36, warmed up as he bagged birdies on the ninth and tenth, to get a good start on the homeward trip. From there on, the champion was never In trouble. Hejl had three putted the eight for his only mistake on any green, but he was keeping consistently out of trouble. The only "break he got came at the 218-yard seventeenth, nestling out on the ocean's edge, where his spoon shot from the tee hit a spectators back and bounded to the green.

This saved a par three for the Georgian, whose a allop appeared headed for the ocean and a two-stroke penalty. Dunlap began putting extraordinarily on the second green, where after getting home on this 480-yard layout over a screen of tar ps with two fine wood shots, he ramm-d a forty-footer for an eagle 3. Ha ank a twelve-footer on the tenth and a thirty-footer on the thirteenth for another birdie, then another of fifteen feet on the seventeenth to get his par three after being off the line from the tee.

President Cliff Green- announced today the post-season series between Montgomery and Tampa to decide the Southeastern league championship would open in Tampa-Wednesday afternoon. The pennant will be awarded to the team winning the first four games out of seven. i Weather permitting, the first three games will be played in Tampa, the league president said, the clubs entraining for Montgomery Friday night.

In the -event one club wins the first three, games, the fourth game will riot be played until Sunday. The series will close in Montgomery, regardless of the number of games required, Mr. Green said. The Smokers assured themselves of the second half championship with their victory in the first game of todays double-header with Pensacola. Montgomerys Lions, defending champions, captured the" first half with ease, but struck snags in the windup that sent them to the bottom of the stray hook.

And heres how Dunlap himself tells the story. Dunlap Tells Story of Finish. I was going on the eighteenth tee when I heard Jones had finished with a 70, so I belted one down past the trees, trying so hard for distance that I pushed the ball into the rough. It was not a good lie, but I caught the spoon shot well and stuck it up close to the green. I sure got a kick out of that shot and was confident then I would at least tie Bobby.

I was lucky enough to get down the long putt for a birdie. Tomorrow? Well, Ill just hit em around again. Tomorrow the final eighteen holes of the qualifying competition may see another tussle between Jones and his youthful rival, who learned his game in Chicago, went for a time to Wisconsin university, transplanted it to Los Angeles and won the southern California intercollegiate honors-Dunlap and Jones were the only players to crack par, but five others equaled the "perfect 72 to demonstrate that the terrors of Pebble Beach can be conquered, the chasms hurdled and the ocean avoided, even though these hazards provea the undoing of a good share of the starting field of 141 players. Most of the stars, with the single and surprising exception of George Voigt. New Yorks favorite, came through the opening test comfortably "enough to indicate they will have little, if any difficulty gaining the bracket of thirty-two qualifiers tomorrow night.

Voigt, his usually brilliant iron play missing, needed 40-40 80 for his round. This was far from the form expected of the 1928 medalist, who must stage a comeback tomorrow to avoid elimination. The group' at 72 comprised the two principal threats from Portland, Ore. Dr. Oscar F.

Hermans, of Englewood, N. the Princeton ace. Johnston experienced the sensation of holding a brief lead early in the day, but was quickly supplanted by Jones.
