contests with significant ability
Saturday morning Pyne met A. w.
Tilliughast of the PHILADELPHIA Crick-

i. e. Mitchell, the local player, who
gained national notoriety at last years
tournament through his defeat of r.
c. Watson. Jr., Of WestbroolS, carried
off the second trophy with the aid OF
really promising golf. His opponents
were well worthy OF the best going, but
his final match was won with compara-
tive ease.
J. Richardson. another home player,
won the third cup. but there was plen-
ty of interest In the disposition of the
added trophies for those who fell by
the wayside IN the preliminary match
play rounds. The generosity of the
Wilmington Country Club is unique IN
the respect that trophies were 10 be
won in every direction. and the failure
OF golfers Of any ability in securing a
mug was certainly not to be attribu-
table to any lack of opportunity. The
