With Middle States Champion
From This City.

BALTIMORE. Nd. June 1o.-with the
ending of the second round in the first
sixteen OF the open amateur golf tour
nament at the Baltimore Country Club
yesterday. Baltimore's chances of win
ming the Maryland cup looked decidedly
rosy.
This condition is due to the remark
ably consistent work OF IL. Lennox Bond,
Sd. who disposed OF Lee l.. Harlan %
the Columbia Country Club OF Wash
ington. ID. c., in clever fashion. Tie
score was up and to play. but Boad
was at his best and the middle states
champion found it very hard to put up
even q good appearance. Harlan always
plays well. but 1t was Bonds magnificent
work which made the champion bite the
dust Of defeat.
BY this victory Bond will have an ex.
cellent chance Of getting into the final
fray. which starts at 80 o'clock this
afternoon In the semi finals he will have
to defeat j. c. Davidson of the Columbia
Country Club. but IL is thought that he
will not have as much trouble with him
as he had with Harlan.
In that event. Bond will have to play
either b. T. Allen of the Fox Hills Golf
Club, Staten Island or w. Fellows Nor.
gan Of the Baltusro' Golf Club, Short

battle royal in the semi-finaie. but II 10
more than likely, in view OF Aliens phe-
nomenal work against s. d. Bowers.
whom he defeated yesterday. 8 up and
TO play. that Morgan will be defeated.
Allen simply had Bowers. the winner OF
the qualifying medal at his mercy. ana
at one stage OF the game he was slp.
Everybody at the club il counting on
Bond to play the game OF his life today.
and II he succeeds in getting into the
finals It is believed that his steady nerve
will land him the final victory. Bond was
the middle states champion until Har-
bans victory three weeks ago. and his
game is generally filled with the kind OK
strokes which spell victory.
One OF the disappointments OF the play
yesterday was Davidson's defeat OF b.
Warren Cochran OF Baltimore. Cochran
was nearly as good as Bowers In the
pected that he would win out from his
opponent Davidson won, / up in 10
holes. and Cochran was pushing him hard
all the way.
