A horde Of golfers streamed over the
Field Club course Saturday afternoon in
the weekly competition for the Field Club
cup. Ideal weather brought out a large
field of entries, twenty-six in all. and v.
o. Strickler came out high man for the
day, chalking up a net score OF eighty-two
strokes, and clearing his nearest rival,
Herb Howell, by Ave.
The Field Club cup Is being played for
every week during the season, and the man
winning such a tourney three times will get
the trophy as his permanent property at
the end Of the year. This makes the fourth
contest for the cup, and a different man has
won each time. The four are w. e. Palma

Play Saturday was of every variety.
Gross scores ran from H.. II. Morrill's 103
to F. L. Joys 1877. Handicaps ranged from
nine strokes to thirty-hve. Net scores ran
all the way from the winners eighty-two
to Joys 142. No one could tell anything
about how the thing was coming out till
the last man was in. so great was the di-
verslty Of handicaps and Of players.
Strickler himself won by lettering his
game Of gold. He, with nine others. carried
the biggest gift OF strokes, a handicap Of
thirty-hve. None Of the other nine, how
ever, got within the eighties in net score.
On actual gross scores H. p. Morrill, was
the star of the day with 1903. He was handi-

TIE FOR THE cARTAN CUP
e. O. Lewis and H. 7. Mccormick Share

The Cartan cup was the coveted goal for
which fourteen golfers strove at the Coun-
try club Saturday afternoon, and when the
eighteen holes had been covered II devel-
oped thai E. v. Lewis and H. T.. McCor-
mick were a tie for first place in the COM
petition. Their net score was Is strokes.
Meanwhile the rest of the held-twelve
entries-traiIed along at random, none get
ting anywhere near the winning mark save
w. j. Foye, who scored n from scratch.
This was a phenomenal piece of playing,
as IS is the DOGGY score for the course.
and Foye ~equalled his own best record over
it with his n. He was the only man started
from scratch. 7. R. Kimball and W. D.
Rancker being given six strokes each, the
lowest handicaps out. But one other player
came below so on a net score. This was
Euclid Martin, who made 70 from a gross
of 80 and a handicap of 10.
Handicap medal play is the game where
the Cartan cup Is involved, and the two
men who stand tied for first place In the
tourney of yesterday played a peculiar
game throughout. In the first place each
was started with the same handicap-l6
strokes. Both played even to a hair all
the way around the course, the scores by
holes being very nearly Identical. When II
came to the last putt for the eighteenth
hole each man had a gross score OF -
strokes, and both made their puts good.
1t was practically a tie all the way around.
The links were in good condition and
there was every advantage in favor OF the
play, the wind not being a damaging one:
Despite all this scores were on the general
rim a little high. They read:

LOwers the Record.

A week ago today Professional Sherwood
Of the Field club pulled the course record
down with a run, playing ia 81 strokes.
Eighty mine was the best that had been
done. Sherwood himself having made that.
This latest score is a truly remarkable
one, considering the rawness of the links.
Sherwood Bays he had a mighty good show
to come in under eighty. but he grew care
less on No. 9, and the hole cost him six
strokes. 1t is a short one, being only $50
yards. and the professional had everything
framed UP to make it in three. He figures
that he lost heavily right there.
Some keen professional matches are ar
ranged for the week, during which the
grand tournament of the Transmississippi
Golf association will be held at the Coun-
try club Sherwood Of the Field club, Wat
son of the Des Moines Country club and
Bartsch Of the Omaha Country club will
be the principals.
Sherwood and Watson are hrst matched
for eighteen holes, match play, at 500 q

affair. same play, with Sherwood, Watson
and Bartsch in at $3.50 g corner. These
should prove out amazing good golf, and
will attract much attention.
