ZANE of the most interesting coin
~ petitions that has ever been
played in the tri-city serial of
matches for the Griscom cup was h
played at the Huntingdon Valley Coun-
try Club on Monday, and yesterday Of
this week, even though h Boston team
did prove the victors.
The Philadelphia women gave them
a hard fight on Monday, and were only
beaten by a single match, which was
carried to the twentieth hole, while the
New York women ave them fully as
hard a match yesterday, one of the in
dividual matches being carried to the
twentieth hole. while another went to
the twenty-first hole before the New
York woman was beaten. Boston won
both matches by s to Z, and incidentally
the Griscom cup outright. 1t has to be
won three times to become the per-
sonal property of the winning team,
and the Boston team now have two
most beautiful cups, the gift of Mrs.
Clement A. Griscom. Originally the
cup was presented by Mrs. Griscom
for an annual match between The
Women's Philadelphia Golf Association
and the Women's Metropolitan Golf
Association, but after the New York
women winning it in 1900 n 1901. the
Boston Women's Golf Association were
permitted to enter a team in 1902, n
they showed their appreciation by three
straight wins, which gave them the
original cup outright. Mrs. Griscom
then presented another cup under the
same conditions.
The New York women won it in 1905
and 1909, the Philadelphia women in
1906, and the Boston women in 1907,
1908. and for the third and last time
in 1910. Mrs. Griscom, however, will
present another cup. and the team
matches will continue as before. The
New York team was short the services
Of three of their best players. Mrs.
Charles I. Stout. three times the met
ropolitan champion. and the national
champion of 1901 and 1902; Miss Georgi-
anna Bishop, twice the metropolitan
champion and the national champion of
1904, and Mrs. E.. A. Manice, several
times the metropolitan champion.
Despite their crippled condition, how
ever, they turned out a very good team,
and gave the Boston women the hard
est kind of a battle.
The keenest disappointment was the
defeat of Miss Lillian b. Hyde, South
Shore Field Club, the present cham
pion, who was defeated by Mrs. E. c.
Wheeler, jr., Wollaston, formerly Miss
Mollie b.. Adams, the present champion
of the Eastern Women's Golf Assoeia-
ton, one of Boston's most expert play
,ers, who beat her by 5 up and 4 to
play. The defeat was reconciled, how
ever, by the victory of Miss Julia r.
Mix, Englewood, last years Metropoli-
tan champion, who defeated Miss
Fanny c. Osgood, the present cham
pion of the Boston Women's Golf AS
ISOLATION, by 5 up and 4 to play. Miss
