PROFESSIONAL GOLFERS

His Score Would Have Been
Remarkable One.

LAKE FOREST, Ill, June 2S.-At the
end of the first days play Alex Smith,
the Nassau professional, who won the
Western golf championship last week,
has a lead of two strokes in the

Onwentsia Smith made the first
eighteen in 73 and the second in "A,
total OF 147 strokes. He took a seven
on the twelfth hole IN the afternoon
play, a drive spliced deep in the high
grass costing him two strokes. With
any luck on his putting in the after
noon journey his score would have
been so far below the other contest
ants that the championship would
probably have been settled by the first
days play.
Willie Anderson. the present open
champion, is second with Jag. Ander-
sons morning card was the same as
Smiths, but seven on the eleventh hole
in the afternoon play as result of a
brassy shot in the grass plainly af-
fected him. He took six for the round.
James Maiden of Toledo finished
third on the days play with 153
but a 73 in the afternoon made him a
decided possibility. Willie Smith,
Mexican champion, who, with Anderson
and Alex Smith, made 73 during the
morning. practically destroyed his
chances for the championship by TAX
ing 81 strokes for the afternoon round.
