..Dope" for Second Round.
While there Is no telling what sur
prises will be sprung in the second
round this afternoon there Is plenty OF
interesting dope relative to the posi-
BILE outcome. It Is conceded. of course.
that q. g. Wallace will go down before
Warren Dickinson, Mr.. Wallace has
played wonderful golf for SO young a
player but Mr.. Dickinson is far too
experienced for Wallace to hope to win.
The match OF the day will doubtless be
the one between Guinand and Board
man. The latter has advantage OF be-
ing more familiar with the course, and
If he plays up to the pace he is capa-
BILE of he should give the Des Moines
lad an exciting match. II. RI. Fer
guson will doubtless defeat Decker
French, altho the latter plays an excel
lent game. H. G. villepigue has slight
advantage over Elton Ellis, and Give
Martin should win from A. j. Verran.
The Bever- Hale match is about q
stand-off with the chances faVor1ng
the latter 1t would seem as tho j. ).
Gilbert and B. Mckee are about evenly
matched Givin Chase may win from
Maxwell, but the latter is capable OF
playing great game, and IL he does,
Chase will have to look to his laurels

did not qualify for either the state
championship or Marshalltown prize.

were late in getting away, and it was
long after dinner before the eighteen
holes were played. Four Of the seven
will qualify. The first round OF this
match was played this afternoon. The
second round of the championship
match, also the second round for the
Marshalltown prize, started short

Business Meeting Tonight.
The business meeting of the state
association will be held at the club
house this evening, probably about 8
O'Clock. Officers are to be elected and
the place of holding the next tourna-
ment will be selected. While Des
tNdloines men say they are not after the
tournament, but would be glad to take
it, yet there was what amounted to an
agreement entered into last year that
the Des Moines and Golf and Country
club should have the 1908 tournament.
1t will doubtless go to this club, altho
both Ottumwa and Cedar Rapids are
anxious to secure it, Some of the
players, however, object to holding the
tournament on any other than an eigh-
teen hole course, which gives the Des
Moines Country club an advantage, as
it has the only eighteen-hole course in
the state.
Many Attend Dance.
The dancing party given in honor Of
the guests at the club house Wednes-
day night was thoroughly delightful
but very simple affair. The large room
of the club, house which was used for
dancing, was decorated with flowers.
Visitors Compliment Country Club.
The visiting golfers are loud in their
praise at the treatment and entertain
ment afforded them, and many have
said that never in the history of the
state association have they had bet
ter time Especially are they pleased
with the meals furnished by the club
ladies'. which they declare to be the best
furnished by any club that has ever
entertained the state association.
