HELPED TO BEAT HOLLINS.
| Indications Point to n Record List OF En-
| tries for the Open Championship OF the
! U. s. q. A.. Including n Few Amateurs
| Montelair Clubs Busy Fall Programme.
Honors In plenty have fallen to Quincy A.
| Shaw At Newport. for. after putting out Her
! bert NJ Hartman, the amateur champion. In
! the semi finals. he won In the nnal from Harry
| Hoins. Ir., but only on the thirty-seventh
green. Tho last few holes Of the match re-
called the finish between Hollins. Jr., and @.
G. Clark Jr.. at shinnecock Hills. in 1898.
when. after being 2 down at the thirty-fourth
hole. the wostbrook player tied the match and
won on the extra hole At Newport he was
down at the twenty seventh hole and up at
the thirty third. But Shaw halved tho match
on the home green and won out on tho first
extra hole. Both at Shinnecock Hills and New
port Hollins proved himself logged uphill
player but his very good work while down
demonstrates his weakness as match player.
This is the lack OF the rugged fighting spirit
that from the nrst toe urges the player on as
though each hole was the winning one. Shaw
has this spirit to the full and he Is always
keyed up to concert pitch. A shrewd. match
making head. however. cannot be placed on
young shoulders. and young Hollins has years
ahead OF him In which to study the subtle
intricacies OF this part OF the game
