tional championship tournament on the links of the
Midlothian Country Club to-day or the sixteen
players who survived the eighteen hole test less
than eight represent the Boston district while
Philadelphia and Pittsburg have each. The
West claims the other six.
The luck of the draw brought several favorites
together and the home contingent received n de-
cided setback when Miss Lillian French. the
Windsor player. who recently the champion
shin Of the Women's Western Golf Association.
finished . down to Miss Harriet Curtis. of Essex
County. the national titleholder. Miss Margaret
Curtis also or Essex County. put out Mrs Charles
L. DerinG. of Midlothian, former Western cham
pion Miss Curtis got going in one of her irresistible
streaks with the result that the final outcome was
never in doubt. The match was hers by : up and
s to play.
Miss Mary f. Adams. of Woaston. champion Of
the Womcn's Eastern Golf Association, won handily
at tho expense of Mrs w. A. Alexander, of Exmoor.
q former Western titleholder This match ended on
tho fourteenth green where Miss Adams stood up.
The only Philadelphia 10 survive was Mrs r. IL
Barlow. of the Merton Cricket Club who displayed
something like her true form against MISS r
Phepoe. of the strongest of the Canadian play
ers. Mrs. Barlow won by mp and to play Miss
Z. Harvey, the other snadian to qualify FOUND u
impossible to withstand the dashing game put up By
Miss Anita phipps of Springfield. The latter sprang
into prominence years ago. and II was said then
that all she needed little more experience TO
put her right line for chief honors- Miss Phpps
however. refuses to devote the necessary time for
practice. that her game has not shown the eN-
pected Improvement.
1t proved unfortunate for Mrs. Caleb F. Fox. the
Huntingdon Valley woman, that her first opponent
should he Miss Pauline Mackay. of Oakley. winner
Of the national title at Morris County in 1909 Al
though the long Midlothian course Is hardly suited
to Miss NIaCkay's game. the Boston woman atoned
for lack of distance Off by better direction.
As it was she managed TO defeat the Philadelphia
veteran by M aud I 20 play.
The only extra hole match of the day resulted
from the meeting botwoeu Miss r. NJ. Huseltou.
OF Allegheny. and Miss y. LdeweIyn. Of La Grange
