PINEHURST, n. c.. Jan. 2.-Walter
]. Travis. national champion of the
United States. and w. c. Fownes. Jr..
of Pittsburg. meet today in the final
thirty-six- round for the chief trO-
ply in the Pinehurst Club tournament
which has inaugurated the golf season
here In the regular tournament events
for the match play cups the semi-hnals
only were played. being thirty-six holes
each. so that the greater part of the
day was occupied in finishing those
matches. Thavis had nc difficulty in de-
feating William c. Freeman. of the Mont
clair Golf Club, by 6 up and 4 to play.
The victory of Fownes was more of a
surprise, for he defeated John Moller,
jr.. Of Lakewood. by the narrow score of
uD in a closely played contest.
The Washington times., 1904-01-02

The wonderful reductions in the pac-
ing and trotting records and interna-
tional contests gave the sporting year
of 1908 its special distinction Cresceus,
Lou Dillon. and Major Delmar all clipped

Alert and Dan Patch were equally sue
cessful in their assaults on the pacing
mark.

hands. frankie Neil won the feather
weight title from Harry Forbes. and
Robert Fitzsimmons plucked George
Gardner's laurels as light heavyweight

by yesterdays buyers who again disap-
poi lted by the failure of bad weather to

light frosts but temperatures over the rest
of the belt were reassuring and rain of
importance was noted. The early liquidation
was Offset to some extent by covering and
buying from scattering southern sources, but
trading was very quiet and the market gradually
sagged off. being barely steady at decline of
