Tourney on Deal Links.
COURSE HARD FOR WOMEN
Miss Hyde Unable to Play on
Account of an Injury to
Her Foot.

OnIv one player succeeded in getting
around under a hundred in the women's IN
vitation tournament, which began yester-
day at the Deal Golf and Country club.
That was Mrs. r. Fl Barlow, OF Phila-
delphia. who a few months ago won the
championship Of the Women's Eastern
Golf Association. She returned s5.
There was nothing between that and
fO5. score placed 10 the credit Of Miss
f. r. Rosenheim one OF the Deal favor
ties. who on one bright occasion not long
since made an IS. a new womens record
for the course. According 10 the condi-
tfons. the players qualified in three Fights.
Miss Dorothy Campbell, who, like Harold
Hilton. holds the championship titles or
Great Britain and the United States, had
been invited, but was unable 10 attend
Miss Campbell would have come from
Canada II IT had t interfered with
team match at home.
Miss Lillian B. Hyde, the metropolitan
title holder, also had been counted on by
the committee. but she is suffering from
an injury to her foot which may prove
Of such 4 serious nature as to keep her
out Of the national meeting at Baltusrol
next month.
While the scores had A decided leaning
toward the high side, II only required a
glance az the card TO find reason. The
outward Journey totals 1878 yards, three
Of the holes being more than 500 yards
II is much shorter coming in, so that the
total for the round foots up about $500
Yards, but Il is a recognized fact that
Deal is longer than the card indicates.
Furthermore, the turf al present is heavy
permitting OF little or no run after the
carry.
Mrs Barlow PLAYED round with Miss f.
l.. Chandler, Of the Huntington Valley
Country Club Although Miss Chandler has
only been playing the game for three years
she has improved rapidly and now has a
place on the Huntington Valley team. Both

Strokes, Mrs. Barlow coming to grief
at the seventh, eighth and ninth holes
whore she threw away all told about six
strokes.
Except for more trouble AT the tenth
where she got into a bunker and had tc
rlav back so that hole cost her a :, the
Merton woman played sound golf Her
third shot to the twelfth a full brassie, left
her with fifteen foot put for 4, but in
stead. she took three puts. Her short game
also wavered at the fifteenth, but the East
ern champion played the last three holes
z, rfectly. making the sixteenth green with
;wo fine shots and getting 4.
