some tournaments which have been taking
place at the Staten Island Cricket Club this sea-
son occurred yesterday on tho Livingston links.
Though only seven cards were returned. tho
scores made were exceedingly creditsble. Rob
ert Bonner and Miss Edith Edwards won the
contest with 81 net. their handicap being 10.
Miss Edwards has figured in a number Of these
monthly f~oursomes, and her game has developed
an almost masculine strength OF form. Testcr-
day her driving was strong and fast and her
work on the putting greens excellent. George
Armstrong played with Miss Van Rensselaer,.
and though thoir gross score was the best OF tho
day, the fact that they played from scratch re-
suited In giving them fourth place In the handi-
cap. The full scores follow:
