RECEPTION TO TRAvERS.
Champion Will Be Honored by Club
mates Tomorrow.

Walter ]. Travis. of Garden City. and
Archie Graham, of the North Jersey Coun-
try Club, have agreed to team up in a
fonr-ball match against Jerome ID.
Travers, the national champion, and Mar
shall Whitlatch at the Montclair Colt
Club tomorrow. This match is a prelude
to n testimonial the club has planned to
give Trnvers tomorrow night in appre-
citation of his unusual achievement of win
ming theMetropolitan, New Jersey and
national championships all in one season.
The golf match will be an all-day affair,
at thirty-six holes.
Il Is likely that both sides will return a
low best ball, as all have on different occa-
sions shown ability to negotiate the Mont
clair links. This is especially true Of
Travers and Whitlatch, who claim Mont
clair for their home green. Last year
Trnvers lowered the record to Il, but
scarcely two weeks ago Whitlatch cut this
a stroke. As for Travis, 1t may be said
that he can be counted on at all times,
while report has it that Graham is con-
tlnuing the same sterling golf which
earned him a place in the final round Of
the recent national tournament at Cleve-
land

pooling she ranked $50 to ss5 over the field.
When the ten horses in the field scored
the first time Sonoma Girl was on the
run. jumping and fighting as though mad
and sour. Time and again she acted badly.
and there was a wild scramble among the
bettors. Springer, who drove her, changed
sulkles. and she acted a little better. but
when the word was given on the ninth
score she was ten lengths behind the rest,
though on a trot.
Hignball, from the outside. shot to the
pole. and. trotting the first quarter In

been seen, and when Sonoma Girl was
