TRAVIS AND BYERS
ARE PITIED TODAY
Will Meet on Nassau Links for the
Championship.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Travis and
Byers are the men who will meet today
at Nassau for the golf championship Of
the United States. There we're nc de
cided upsets yesterday, and predictions
made early in the day were generally
fulfilled. 1t was rather an anticlimax TO
Thursdays succession OF shocks when
half dozen local champions went down
and out for good The sitting yesterday
was done in two rounds, each OF eighteen
holes, but the finals today will be at
thirty-six
Travis is, of course, the favoritc.
Though beaten last year at Chicago. he
had always been regarded as the real
champion OF the country, and the vindi-
cation of those who SO consider him
seems likely TO come today
Byers is a Pittsburg golfer who has
figured rather well in open tournaments.
though not regarded as Travis equal in
a hard match. Last year he was run
ner-up TO Louis James, who won the
cup, 50 that. figured on that basis, his
chances against Travis would seem
good. A comparison or the work which
each has done this week, however, puts
the odds in favor OF Travis. Byers.
when at his best, is a gamy opponent.
The match should be a close one. but
the general feeling o. those who have
watched the two closely is that Travis
should win.
Travis gained his place in the semi
finals through the defeat OF Reinhart.
who was beaten ) up and 4 20 play. II
was an unexpected result as far as
scoring is concerned, for Reinhart was
backed 10 make Il better showing He
has beaten Travis once this season.
