Atlantic City, N J.. May 5.-F Odon Horst
man. representing the Philadelphia Country
Club won the chief cup IN the final round to-
day of the open golf tournament Of the Country
Club of Atlantic City. He defeated Howard W.
Perrin, also OF Philadelphia, by up and 70
play. New YorlSs slight claim on the winner
lies in the fact that ne has for several years
been member of the St Andrews Golf Club
and he intends TO play from there in the annual
championship Of the Metropolitan Golf Assoeia-
tion the latter part Of this month.
Arden NJ. Robbins Of the Garden City Golf
Club, got some consolation by winning the
beaten eight prize in the Governors Cup divi-
sion. There were several low net totals In the
eighteen hole medal play handicap. but under
the ruling made by the committee prohibiting a
contestant from winning more than one prize
the actual winners appeared several notches
further down the list.
]. E. Porter, Of the Allegheny Country Club.
won, with a 79 net while George Crump' OF
Philadelphia. got the gross score prize with an
even 80.
The semi-fnal round in the first division was
productive Of keen matches. Perrin met fell
low townsman, George A. Crump, and. oddly
enough, the contest was carried TO the nine
teenth green making the third consecutive extra
hole match for Perrin in the tournament. In
the other half Of the semi-final round Horstman
had A. w. Tilinghast for an opponent. The
latter is on his game this spring, and Is hard
proposition. Horstmans direction was slightly
better. and this enabled him TO win by up and
to play Wild driving was directly responsible
for Tillinghast losing the third and fourth holes,
and while he played we'll thereafter. his mistakes
proved costly, as Horstman gave him few OPP
portunities to recover. making the round in a
capital 70.
A oil @Ra HDal1afG and the
general sentiment was that Horstman would
win. He played better golf than when he lost
to Walter J. Travis In the final round OF the open
tournament here last fall Of the tees Horst
man had slightly the longer ball. and he was
Steadier on the greens.
