Who Won

P: Golfer Ralph Guldahl, winner of the U. S. Open fortnight ago: the Western Open championship, second ranking open tournament in the country; for the third year in a row; with a score of 279, including a six-under-par 65 on the last round; at the Westwood Country Club, St. Louis. Runner-up was Sam Snead with 286. Champion Guldahl is the first golfer in the 38-year history of the event to win the title three times in succession.

P: Flares, five-year-old son of famed Gallant Fox (1930 Kentucky Derby winner), owned by U. S. Banker William Woodward: the Ascot Gold Cup, No. i race of the world's richest and most fashionable meeting of thoroughbreds; coming from behind at the two-mile mark and defeating Lord Glanely's Buckleigh by a nose after a breathless zigzag spurt in the stretch; at Ascot Heath, an hour from London. A 100-to-7 shot, Flares avenged the defeat of his full brother Omaha, who lost by a nose two years ago. Only one other U. S.-bred horse had ever succeeded in winning the Gold Cup; the late U. S. Speculator James R. Keene's Foxhall in 1882.
