The little fighter, seconded by white-robed doctors and nurses, took on the grim specter of death itself for' an unlimited go In a little hospital room and lost, askiner no quar-er. Today the requiem gong tolled the end of the round. One plan is to have the body of the little fighter lie in state in a big hall for a few days tn permit his thousands of admirers Here to gaze upon him for the last time. His manager, Frank Churchill, who arrived from Los Angeles-today, Said that no plan had been completed.

It is tentatively proposed to place his body on a boat leaving for Manila Saturday. State Commission I Adopts Resolution On Villa's Death PHlLAntJLPHIA, Jaly IS. (A. I'.)

Newcomers Maintain Form. While probably all these favorites would have won in 34-hole matches, it was not purely- by accident that their victors came out on top, for they not only shot close to par golf in their matches to triumph, but they repented In the afternoon matches, although they had less famous opponents.
