TRAVERS AND bEHR
RIVALS ON LINKS
For Third Time They Will Play
in Final Match for New.
Jersey Title.

NEW YORK, June 4.-Those old rivals,
Jerome D. Travers of AMontclair and Max
Behr of Morris county will meet for the
third time as principals Elm the final
round of the New Jersey State Golf AS
ISOLATION championship tournament. Both
won their matches yesterday at the Es-
sex County Country Club, Travers at the
expense of G. W. OConnor, one of the
best of the home club brigade. and w. D.
Bremner Of Montclair while Behr, in his
onward march to the final bracket, elimi-
mated A. D. Swords of Morris county
and Howard Giffen, the Baltusrol man.
who formerly was regarded as the leader
of the East Jersey Golf League.
1t is a matter of record that Travers
and Behr have met in tournament no less
than five times during the last three
years, and on every occasion the first
named has won decisively. He had easy
matches yesterday. but Behr found
Swords a worthy antagonist. the match
being carried to the home green.
Something of a surprise resulted from
the defeat of Oswald Kirkby, the Engle-
wood record holder, at the hand of Brem-
ner. Kirkby's fault appeared to be ten
dency to pull his drives. which got him
into frequent trouble. Although he plays
in good FORM Bremner is rarely seen
away from Montclair. He is handicapped
at Z on the Metropolitan list
In addition to the final round matches
in the various divisions, there will be an
eighteen-hole handicap today, for which
more than 100 entries have been received
