Archie Reid Makes . Fine Score. and

Meadow--MetrOpolitan Ent ries to Close

Under the white cross OF ST. Andrews, the
golfers began the match play rounds OF the
open tournament yesterday under new
system that scored success and will probably
be initiated at many other tournaments.
The idea was that instead Of separating the
first and second sets of sixteen on their scores
in the qualifying round. the entire thirty-t wo
should play in one round yesterday morning,
the winners continuing for the first cup in
the afternoon and the losers for the second
cup. The division into acts was on match play,
not entirely on the score game.
A feature Of the day was a -. made in a
morning match by Archie Reid in defeating
Kceler. The score was within two strokes
Of the amateur record for the green, made
Reid, Jr but the course IL somewhat more
difficult now through new hazards. The card
in full was;

noon Archie" Reid could not beat 30 and only
eNtra-hole match there was sensat ional
finish. which enabled Downey to beat W. e.

The charges against Patrolman John
Davids brought by B. Mcdonald. an in
surance man. were dismissed by the
Police Commissioners last evening.
Davids was accused of having permitted
chairs 10 remain in the aisle Of a theater.
The defense proved the excellent charac-
ter Of the officer and his innocence in
the matter and il required but a short
deliberation on the part Of the commits
sioners TO eX0nerate him. The case Of
Patrolman Archie Hamill. charged with
reporting late for duty and visiting i'm
proper places was continued one week,
as was the case of Patrolman Paul (.

ated on charge Of making an illegal
