Sixteen Remaining Players Game Out
 For Second Round To-day
 Brookline, Mass, Oct 2.-Although the storm of yesterday had apparently de parted, the prospects for good golfing weather were not althogether bright when the sixteen players remaining in the national women's championship came out at the Country club to-day for the second round of match play. The sky was still overcast and the turf after almost ten days of wetting was like a sponge.
 The unfavorab1e weather, while par ticularly trying to the contestants, has caused great disappointment to hun dreds of followers of golf in this vicin- ity. Following the matches has been particularly disagreeable and at no time has there been large number of spectators on the course.
 The absence of gallery has been a great relief to many of the players and may have contributed in some degree to the excellent scores, and the few who have seen the play thus far have seen better golf than was ever played before by women in this country With few exceptions each player has shown unusual care in making her strokes. The women as a rule also nave used rare judgment in not daring drives or brilliant long shots for the green when surer but less spectacular way was opena
