PLAY IN THE HANDICAP
Ideal Conditions on the Chevy
Chase Course.
TURNOUT WAS LARGE
SEMI-FINALs FOR THE THREE
CUPS WITNESSED.
Finals Will Be Decided This Afternoon
Mrs. McCammon May Be
a Winner.

Play In the handicap of the Chevy Chase
golf tournament began this morning under
ideal conditions. The greens were In even
better condition than yesterday, although
that is saying a good deal. There were 10
entries for the handicap, including Mr..
Finley A. Douglass, the former champion;
DR.. Lee Harbin, the Columbia crack and
number of other high-class players.
Good-sized galleries followed the play in
the handicap and in the semi-finals of the
cup matches, which were also played off
this morning. The finals will be decided
this afternoon.
Mr.. Douglass was practically the scratch
man in the handicap, having an allowance
of only two. DR.. Lee Hardin was next,
with four, and the handicaps ran from that
figure up to eighteen, the maximum. Mrs.
McCammon, the only woman entered In the
handicap. has an allowance of eighteen, and
If she makes the course in ninety-two, as
she did the other day, 1t will not be at all
surprising to see the cup go to her.
Allowing for her handicap her score would
then be seventy four, and it is doubtful
whether there will be any better than that
Handicap Entries.
