 When the time came for the two players who had succeeded in dispos- ing of their previous opponents and re- maining in the race, to play the bill Hard room was so crowded that many had to sit out in the lobby of the hotel. The general sentiment seemed to be that Kirk would have no trouble in beating Dunlop. but in this instance as in his game with Tupper, Dunlop up- set all predictions. From the first ball Dunlop seemed to be at all times con fident, while Kirk on the other hand seemed to weaken as the game pro gressed. The playing of the former was characterized by the same care fitness which was such a factor in his winning from previous opponents. When his opponent turned the fifty mark Kirk was twenty points behind. At various times the newspaper man endeavored to get himself out of a | tight place by brilliant shot, but did not display the precision which form erfy marked his play Throughout the entire game Dunlop outclassed his op- ponent. and finally finished the game and the tournament by the score of ! 100 to 6S.
