all players try for. but which few sue
coed In accomplishing.
Brooke was plainly off his game and
this. coupled with his opponents brill
liancy. accounts for the te. rife drubbing
he received. He won but single hole
| the ninth-and in doing this, a miss of
one foot on Eynon's part is responsible.
Brooke pulled off a pretty play at this
hole. for which he was roundly appiauded.
He laid himself a stynie In putting for a
.. Eynon's ball being dead to the hole.
Few thought he could hole his next. but
he mashed over Eynon's ball for a beau
tiful 4. 1t was here that the Columbia
player, because of overconfidence, missed
an easy putt, or he would have had the
hole.
Brooke Had Poor Start.
Brooke went bad at the very start when
he failed to run down q three-foot putt
for a halve. allowing his opponent to
take the hole. A long putt gave Eynon
the second. after both players had reach
ed the green on even terms. The third
was halved, and luck favored Eynon in
the fourth. his approach hitting two diff
ferent obstacles and finally landing on
the green. almost dead to the hole. he
going out on his next shot for 4. Brooke
overran the fifth hole, and although he
made a good putt out from clump Of
bushes. he was unable to equal his OPP
ponent's 4.
1t looked as If Brooke would certainly
take the sixth. as Eynon topped his ball
the green on his second. A good out
placed Eynon on the green. and he count
ed this hole when he ran down a fifteen
foot putt. This was one of the best shots
Of the match. The seventh was halved.
Brooke following a pretty putt to the
hole for a L. Another good recovery on
Eynon's part gave him the eighth hole
His drive placed him in the bunker. but
he took his niblick and shot from the
bunker to the green. Luck, which was
big figure here. as 1t is hardly likely
that Eynon could make the same shot
again in ten trials. The ninth, which was
described above, was the only one which
Eynon up at the turn.
Brooke had hard luck on the next two
holes. He putted for at the tenth.
and his ball trimmed the cup. making a
the eleventh his drive was out Of bounds
which cost him a stroke and the distance
AS fitting ending Eynon pulled of what
was easily the feature play Of the tourna-
ment on the twelfth. His drive carried
him In the road for bad lie. but his out
had perfect direction. and stopped about
four inches from the hole. At this stage
Brooke conceded Eynon the hole and
picked up his ball. The card for this
match was:

H. c. Chamberlain of Columbia was
the winner of the second sixteen. John
w. BraWner being his victim in the final
round. Chamberlain continued in the
form which he showed at Columbia last
week and put up a very strong game.
His medal score was 75-but three strokes
above par. he having gone out in 8S and
come In in 81. Brawner was credited
with a 10 and 80 for Is, which is also
very creditabl~ score. Chamberlain
was up at the turn and he retained this
advantage to the end. He did a very
pretty piece of work on the fifteenth

for 2. The card for this match was:

The tournament WAS 4 very successful
