COLUMBIA WINS
THE TEAM MATCH
Chevy Chase Golfers Defeated
on Their Own Course by II
to 9-Some High Scores
by the Leaders.

Columbia golfers are satisfied. Yester-
day afternoon at Chevy Chase the braves
! of Capt. Sandy Britton-Sam Dalzell
/ Ormshy McCamrnon. Morven Thompson
| +. Fl. Ellis, r. D. Dalzell ct al-for the
| second time this season bowed in defeat
| before the better golf played by the men
| from Columbia. To be sure. at the start
at 80 o'clock, after DIR. Lee l.. Harlan
! had gone over the course in the morning
with Sam Dalzel and defeated him by 5
up and 4 to go. the Chevy Chase men
were to some extent disheartened. Things
were not going their way and as the
gentle wind blew southeasterly across the
links it seemed to say that the day was
for Columbia to shine. Anyhow the feel
ing was in the air that Columbia was
going to win. Possibly the impression was
gained to some extent because of the
fact that Ode Horstman. who has been
recently playing at Atlantic ~ had
hoped to come and at the last minLc e
had to go in another direction. Then
George Lafferty was i'll, and that made
matters still worse 1t looked for while
as if the Chevy Chase men would have
more than little difficulty in getting
halfway strong team upon the course.
| But then Capt. Britton got to work with
the result that Chevy Chase put up SOL
!
. tory of Columbia last week was sofns-
thing that nettled the Chevy Chase folk,
and when they went into win they played
the game for all it was worth-but in
vain.
Some High Scores.
But such high scores as some of the
golfers made! Columbia men did their
part in this line as we'll as Chevy Chase
and some one took occasion to remark
that he believed that Eugene Carusi of
Colu1nbi took 143 strokes to cover the
course in his match with DR.. L. 3. T.
Johnson. The Columbia man was stand
ing near. He heard the remarks and with
a grin rubbed the Columbia victory in.
But the work of the leaders in the lists
caused more than one surprise. Mccain
mon, Thompson and DalZell Of Chevy
Chase We're certainly off their usual good
game yesterday They were the leaders
upon the Chevy Chase list and succumbed
TO DR.. Lee Harlan, Louis Weaver and
Hillyer. But Capt. Britton came home
from the eighteenth tee and won from
his opponent from ColumDia--A. b. Leet.
That seemed to help some. Then the
Chevy Chase captain began to inspect
the Columbia list. James Douglas, the
Chevy Chase professional, had also been
quite busy heretofore inspecting the ust.
of Columbia had done some good Joe Key
ing with his players. 1t was suggested
that Louis Weaver was hardly entitled
to second place upon the team: The sug
gestion was made in Capt. Britton's pres
ence and then Eugene Carusi came in
with He looks all right to me. He did
the job all right today, seems like, eh."
1t was also suggested tRat Baird, who
was far down upon the Columbia list,
should have been nearer the top. but this
bat ba has
not been golting for some time. But then
the victory was cinched and the final
scores of both battles showed a total for
Columbia OF twenty-three victories, for
Chevy Chase seventeen.
In the closing battles William w Fin
ley won from McNally of Columbia Gray
of Chevy Chase from Fristoe, and Capt.
J. J. Morrow, the hero of the Columbia
fall tournament, lost to'A. Parker.
The Harban-Dalzel1 Match.
In the opening contest DR.. Lee Harlan
and Sam Dalzell, as stated, went over
the course shortly before noon. Harlan
was playing the game strong and cover
ing the course in par golf. Both did the
first hole in par golf or four. Harlan
clung to par. and took the second in four
Dalzell took one additional stroke. They
| halved the third in four, and in the race
for the fourth hole, which is but 145
yards distant. DR.. Harlan took four
strokes to enter Dalzell took it In par, or
three. They halved the If h in five, and
DR.. Harlan, by strong drives, managed
to reach the close vicinity of the sixth
hole in three. He entered upon the put
and Dalzell took five, Harlan still hung
| to par golf and took the seventh hole in
four. DalZell did as well. Then Harlan
won the eighth in five and the ninth
, in three. DalZell took six at the first
and five at the latter Thus, at the turn
the Columbia golfer was three up on his
opponent having held to par golf, while
his opponent was five over Harlan ap-
preached No. 10 in good shape but in
the play took four strokes to enter, as did
Dalzell Both negotiated the eleventh in
five, or one over par; the twelfth in four
or par AT the thirteenth Dr. Harlan
did some pretty approaching, and took it
in four beating Dalzell by one stroke
He took the fourteenth in Four. DalZell
took another. The match s. Jpped at this
