The Brooke-Jenkins Match.

The match of the day was that between
Messrs- Brooke and Jenkins. the playing
being OF the sensational order and so close
that the deciding stroke was not made un-
til the round had been completed and the
work went on over the 10th or first hole
Neither player had at any time more than
one up on the other and most Of the holes
were halved after a sure victory appeared
to be shifting toward one Of the players
Mr.. Brooke belongs to that aggressive group
recently developed In the Columbia Golf
Club and his advancement has been SO rapid
that by next season he should class with
the best in the District. Mr.. Jenkins be-
longs to the Baltimore Country Club, being
one Of the stars Of that organization. Last
spring he secured the record for the home
course and yesterday morning was at the
top Of his game. He had the same expert
ence last fall. getting off in good shape In
the Chevy Chase tourney but on the second
day was paired with a frst-class man and
defeated. A remarkable point in Mr.. Jen-
hns' play yesterday was the frequency
with which he sliced the ball in driving
sending the ball into bad lies and then get
ting out with the most skiIlful use of the
iron.
Mr.. Brooke got away well. winning the
first, and when the pair was picked up on
the fourth hole by The Star reporter he had
one up on Mr.. Jenkins. On this latter hole
Brooke sliced his ball into the grass at the
right of the hole and Jenkins won it, max
Ing all even.

Business Defeats Western - Important
Contests This Afternoon
Morris Park Racing.

The second round Of match play yester-
day afternoon Of the Chevy Chase fall
golf tourney was unusually interesting on
account OF the close scores obtained by the
different pairs. The surprises were few,
as the players picked to win their matches
generally finished to the fore. The filtra-
ton process was going on. the capable,
steady golfers pushing through the crowd
up to the front, and today the best players
OF the tournament will contest Here and
there good golfer will be bowled over
during the match play, but as a general
thing the gentlemen Of known quantity
will work down into the semi-flnals
By coincidence the players paired in
the afternoon were from the same club,
and in this way two Chevy Chase players
would struggle to survive and two Column
bia golfers would meet. The results Of the
mornings play for the Presidents cup
brought the two Harbans together TN the
afternoon: Horstman and Compton Of
Chevy Chase, while Mr.. Brooke faced Mr.
Jenkins and Mr.. Lafferty struggled with
Mr. Hayden. All these matches were
crowded with interest. DR.. Lee Harlan
triumphing over his brother Walter; Laf-
ferty. Horstman and Brooke being the
other winners.
The cloudy weather Of the morning con-
tinued throughout the afternoon, and It
was noticed that the spirits Of the crowd
around the home hole were kept down by
the depressing atmosphere. OF course, q
golfer will play in any sort of weather.
but there Is no denying the fact that
bright sunshine puts great deal of life
into the contests
Before the afternoon round started Dr.
Lee Harlan was picked to win out; Horst
man was thought to be several strokes
stronger than DR.. Compton and on form
George Lafferty was thought to have an
easy match with Mr.. Hayden. The contest
between Messrs. Brooke and Jenkins was
placed in the close class, as both these
young players were at the top of the game
Mr.. Lafferty had a narrow escape from
defeat at the hands OF Mr. Hayden These
players were all in the Presidents cup
class, and everybody played exceptionally
good golf.

Both In Hard Luck.

On the fifth hole both players had hard
luck, Brooke topping his ball on the drive,
while jenkins sliced into the high grass
Of right Of course. Brooke's second shot
was good. but Jenkins iron shot sent the
ball into the grass on the opposite side Of
the track. The lie was directly back of a
tall tree, but Jenkins with extreme dizziness
lifted the Haskell completely over the OBJ
struction and into good position. Here
were two bad Hes for Jenkins, yet his good
recovery shots enabled ham to win the hole,
making him one up.
The sixth hole was halved through the
medium OF fine putt by Brooke. On the
seventh hole Jenkins once more sliced the
ball into the tall grass, but his recovery
was such that he got good a lie as
were again even. Both played good golf on
the eighth hole, going over it In good form.
but good putting enabled Jenkins to win,
and he was now UP.
The ninth hole is a short one, and on the
drive Brooke dropped the ball close to the
hole and went out In two. pulling Jenkins
back to UP.
Jenkins sliced of into the bushes on the
tenth hole, and for the first time made a
ming which made the contest all even. The
slicing process was continued by Jenkins On
the eleventh hole, but his recovery stroke
was good. and he managed to halve 1t with
Brooke. On the twelfth hole there Is q hill

Laid Brooke q Stymie.

On the fifteenth hole Jenkins sent his
Haskell over to the right the green OF
the seventh hole and had to drop back into
q poor lie. Once more he recovered beauti-
fully. and with clever putt laid Brooke
a stymie Nothing daunted. the Columbia
player put the twist on the ball and cleverly
wrapped 1t around the other ball, getting
into the hole from an almost impossible po-
sition This work was discouraging to the
Baltimore player, but he was to see more
of it on the sixteenth hole which was
halved. Jenkins had sent his ball to wit hin
an inch or two Of the hole, and Brooke was
forty-five feet away on even strokes. With
a steady eye Brooke sent the Haskell roll
ing, and It dropped into the hole with q
"cluck" that was music to the ears Of the
local player.
Both players sliced their drives on the
seventeenth hole, but recovered well, and
It was halved. On the home hole Jenkins
sliced over Into the trees on the left of
the course, while Brooke's got good lie.
On his iron shot Jenkins laid Brooke a
stymie, and this alone saved him, the hole
being halved. Being all even the two con-
testants had to go an extra hole, and both
Jenkins topped his ball, driving 1t into a
bad position on top Of the bunker He took
the third shot and got within fifteen feet of
the hole, but Brooke, who had been going
we'll. laid him a stymie and he gave up the
contest. The Anal score was one up for
Brooke
Both players were pretty well tagged out
by the exciting play, and 1t was a good
thing that nights rest was before Brooke
or his work would have been affected. The
gallery around the home~h hole rushed out
and congratulations were showered upon
both players.
In the play for the consolation cup the
defeat Of Mattingiy by Lewis. / up. was
the only surprise OF that group. MattinRly
