PINEHURST GOLFERS.
McCammon and Horstman Winners in
Consolation Events,

/ Walter ]. Travis of Garden City and w.
! c. Fownes of Pittsburg are the sole surviv-
ors in the competition for the main trophy
( of the New Year tournament of the Pine
hurst On. CO Golf Club, and they will settle
| the question of supremacy today. Fownes
| has displayed remarkably good form to
| date, but it is not seriously questioned that
| the champion will not add another victory
| to his overwhelmed string.
Travis had as his opponent W. c. Free
man of Montclair. Both played splendid golf
/ from the outset, but the champion gradual
ly forged ahead. and in the first half of the
/ match stood up. His long game in the
afternoon was superb. and but for erratic
work upon the putting greens his medal
scoring would have been record-breaker.
The DOGGY of the course is 70. and he played
! the bye for the score, finishing under bo-
! gey for the long distance. Freeman was
| only beaten up and to play, the fast go
Ing notwithstanding.
Z. On the other end Fownes was opposed by
John Moller, jr., of Lakewood. This was a
heart-breaking match. Fownes assumed a
! commanding lead on the first outward jour-
| ney, and the Lakewood player had an up
hill fight Of it to the finish. On the first
half the promising Pittsburg golfer was only
| loading by single hole and matters were
| all square at the third hole on the second
! round. This was as near to the lead as
Moller was doomed to get Both played
Il
| steady. He was dormy 8, and after losing
the next two, owing to his opponents dead
ly putting, he won the last and the match
| by 2 UP.
In the Pinehurst Consolation McCammon
OF this city played a fine game and defeated
tJohn Ward of New York by up.
Two other members of the Fownes family
found their way into the final rounds of
fminor events and a fourth was only defeat
Ted In an added contest after a twenty-hole
tstruggle with I. W. Kemble of the Philadel-
Ephia Country Club.
} This added affair is practically the only
tSrumb OF comfort remaining for the
tQuaker city golfers, although B. w. Hentz
,of Mt Airy has splendid chance of captur-
Hing the Holly Inn cup. 1t was offered under
1.-THE usual medal and match play conditions
flor those put out of the other contest.
