TITLE WILL Be
TAKEN OVER SEA
Miss Campbell of Scotland
Wins the Women's National
Golf Championship.

PHILADELPHIA, October 9.-Miss
Dorothy Campbell Of Scotland defeated
Mrs. r. II. Barlow Of Philadelphia today
in the final match Of the women's ma
tional golf tournament on the Merton
links at Haverford by 3 up and to play,
after one Of the most thrilling struggles
ever seen in the vicinity of Philadelphia.
BY her victory today Miss Campbell adds
the national title Of America to her al
ready long list OF championships she still
being the women's open champion of Eng
land, and having been three times the
champion of Scotland.
Miss Campbell Congratulated.
With the result once settled the true
craftsmanship of an American crowd
showed itself and Miss Campbell was as
heartily congratulated as If she had been
representing this country. Speaking OF
this reception afterward, she said:
Never have 1 been more sincerely
praised for a victory, even when
brought the women's championship title
back to Scotland
In presenting the medals to the winner
and rrnner-up. Herbert Jacques. the prest-
dent of the National Association. made
two felicitous little speeches, saying to
Il want to congratulate you on the fine,
consistent game you have played all week.
You are q credit to the land of your birth,
home of the great game Of golf. and /
must add that we hope to see you on this
side again before another year has
passed
Mrs. Barlow's Play Praised.
Mr.. Jacques also congratulated Mrs.
Barlow on the plucky fight she put up
and, with a pleasant reference to the for
tunes of war;" anjured her to try. try
again until she had brought a national
championship to Merton.
Miss Campbell gave one Of the best ex-
hibitions Of the game ever shown by q
woman in an American tournament. But
a careful analysis Of tho match as whole
shows that Mrs. Barlow defeated herself
by failing to take advantage Of the many
opportunities given her during the con-
test. At the start the Goddess OF For
tune showed a disposition to smile on the
local player, but invariably she fell down
when it came to the crisis.

Robertson's face was glued to the course
ahead as he passed the grandstand on
each round, but his mechanician waved
his hand as they passed. The crowd
gave them a cheer when they stopped for
tires, oil and fuel on the fifteenth lap,
and were off again with little loss of
time
When the twentieth lap had been COM
pleted 1t was realized that only an acct
dent could prevent Robertson from win
ming. He steadily increased his lead UNI
til the last three laps, when he slowed
up slightly.
When the race ended with Robertson
winner he was congratulated by the
mayor and cheered by the crowd.
After the fifth car had finished the
race was declared off and the great crowd
swarmed over the track.
