of Wisconsin golfing circles won the
state championship at La Crosse on Sat
urday afternoon when playing fault
less golf he defeated H. S. Hadfeld OF
the Blue Mound club in Milwaukee by
score of eight up and six to play. It
was one Of the biggest victories ever
won in the state meet and one of the
most popular ones. Hadfeld had shown
no bursts of speed during the morning
play and it was foregone conclusion
at the end Of the first eighteen holes
that Fose would be a. winner by a large
margin. Voso never hesitated in his
game on Saturday and he played in
form worthy of champion. His score
Tor the three rounds was 40, Al, 40 and
he outclassed iLadfeld So far that the
Blue Nounder looked like second
rater. Yose won the first state cham
pionship match at GAINESVILLE ten years
ago and with the Kenosha players he
was the most popular candidate for the
honor outside the members Of the To-
cal club

pionship race they brought home with
them the lion s share of the trophies
taking a larger number of trophies than
any other club in the state.
James Anderson won the president s
cup, the second flight trophy, defeating
J. j. Hosch of the Blue Mound club in
the final match by score of three up
two to play. At that Anderson had a
hard fight for his victory and Hosch
put up the match of his career in the

tracted as much attention as the final
match for the championship.

One aftermath of the tournament is
the determination of the members Of
the Kenosha club to put their strong
est men in the field for the Yule trophy
next year. This year the Kenosha club
sent a second team to La Crosse to CON
test for the Yule trophy and this gave
the La Crosse club a chance to win the
medals offered in this event. Next year
it is certain that Kenosha will send to
Sheboygan the strongest possible team
to contest for this honor.

connection with the state tourney Bob
Simpson the professional of the Ken
osha club outdistanced his opposition
and won with ease.
