Of 1906 and by majority OF 1923 votes
unseated as its member of parliament
Winston Spencer Churchill; Liberal,
who has just been made president of
the board Of trade in the new Asquith
cabinet and who last year so brilliant.
ly wrested the seat from w. Joynson.
Hicks, Unionist, his chief opponent Of
yesterday.
The defeat of Mr.. Churchill is \
crushing blow to the prestige OF the
government and the young and conf
dent minister which is bound to have
marked influence on several pend
ing bye elections. There win be no
difficulty in finding for Mr.. Churchill
a safe seat elsewhere.
Asquith ls Blamed.
Among the many influences and
cross currents at work in this extraor-
binary contest it is not wholly beyond
reason to suppose that Mr.. Asquith
himself was partly responsible for the
defeat of his young colleague. 1t is
customary for the leader of party
to send letter wishing success 10
any member of his party seeking cleo
ton to parliament
Mr.. Asquith for some as yet unex.
planned reason omitted to follow this
custom, though he sent a letter to
Walter Runciman, president of the
board of education. who on Thursday
contested and won the seat for Dews-
bury.

TO PLAY
FOR GOLF TITLE
Women Veterans of National
Reputation Will Compete
at Chevy Chase.

Owing to the fact that the entry list
for the Womens National Golf tourney
does not close until about a week be-
fore the date Of the qualifying rounds.
October 70, the names Of those who will
tee orr on the Chevy Chase links in
the title rounds are not definitely
known.
Assurance has been received that the
Misses Curtis, OF Boston, each OF whom
has held the women's championship
honors. will again try for the title over
the historic Chevy Chase course.
About the only Washington players
who are sure to compete are Mrs. Orms-
by MCCammOn anC Miss Marion oliver.
Mrs NcCammon is a veteran among
women players Of this city and has
captured a handsome string Of trophies
in local and open tournaments.
Miss Oliver has added TO her reputa-
ton steadily since she came 10 the front
ny surviving in the semi-fnals Of the
national open tournament at Philadel-
phia Country Club IN 1893. In the rounds
Of the semI-fnals she went up against
Mrs. Caleb Fox, who will play here next
month, and it was only by the hardest
kind of play that Mrs. Fox defeated her
on the nineteenth hole. by up.
Next 10 the Misses Curtis the most
prominent out-of-tOwn pls yers who eX-
pect to be here next month are Miss
Julia Mix, Englewood, y. Y; Miss Moi
lie Adams. Boston; Miss Elizabeth
Hurry, New York. and Mrs. Ronald
Barlow, OF Philadelphia
Each of these has played in national
events and should be well up among the
survivors next month.
Although both are out Of the city just
now and no word has been received re
garding the tournament, II is more than
probable that washington will also be
represented by Mrs Charles Frailey
and II. P. Mccain. both players who
rank high and should carry Chevy Chase
colors well through the second round.
