MISS HECKER'S CLOSE CALM wO>IEv.s
CHAMPIONSHIP SEMI FINALS
TODAY
TO-DAY.

Another turn OF the wheel In. the womens golf
championship at Batusrol yesterday dropped four
more players from the field and brought to the top
for the semi-fnals Miss Margaret Curtis. of the
Essex County Country Club. of Manchester Mass :
Miss Lucy Heron, of Cincinnati: Mrs F. A
Manice. Of Lenox and Miss Genevieve Hecker. of
the Essex County Country Club, of Orange, n. J.
To-day Miss Curtis will meet Miss Heron and
Mrs Manice will play Miss Hecker. The little
coterfe OF Western women who attending the
tournament jubilant at Miss Herrons success
and seem confident of her victory to day 1t is the
hrst time that a representative of any Western
club has reached the sem-fnals and should Miss
Heron win to-day it will add keen sectional IN
terest TO the finals, for East and West will be
pitted for the cup
The most uncertain factor in the tournament is
APPARENTLY Miss Iecker. whose title of metropoli-
tan champion has given her greater prominence
than her game thus far would warrant. Miss
Hecker escaped defeat at the hands of Miss Geor
gianna Bishop yesterday only by the indomi-
table pluck. From being down. with holes to
play, Miss Hecker rallied and checked her oppo-
nent. running the decisive holes in bogie figures
and forcing tie at the home green. On the extra
hole she made the impetus of the squirt carry her
to the green victor. Mrs. Manice the only
winner of the day who not compelled TO fight
her way TO the home green
The players were late In starting yesterday. Miss
curtis and Miss Anthony the first off, and
Miss Curtis had the honor. With Miss Curtis
caddie was Miss Frances Griscom, the defeated
champion Neither played up the standard
shown in previous matches. though both x
ceedingly good at times Miss Curtis. whose
strongest point is her lone game. particularly
