by JACK KELLER.


in the invitation golf tournament Of the
Washington Country Club was certainly
filled with sharp competition
One of the interesting matches of the
morning play was that between ID. X
Jones and John C. Davidson, both of the
Columbia Country Club, twenty holes be-
ing played before winner could be de-
ington Country Club, took a well-played
match from G. T. worthington. Bannock-
burn, one up in twenty holes.
In the second round of the first sixteen
played in the afternoon, DR.. Freeman,
Chevy Chase Club, defeated Jackson,
three up and two to play. Although the
match was ended with the sixteenth hole,
Freeman continued play to the home hole
and returned an excellent card, making
the course in &c, one more than his quail
flying score of Thursday.
Hard-fousht Match.
Jackson gave Freeman more of a bat
tie than the final score would indicate
The Chevy Chase player was one up at
the turn, and he took the tenth and
eleventh holes, but Jackson recovered
and was only one down at the fourteenth.
The fifteenth, however. went to Freeman,
he making it in one less than par, and
he then gained the sixteenth ana the
match.
In the second sixteen Otto Leubkert.
Washington Country Club representative,
won both his matches on the home green.
Another Washington Country Club player
in this sixteen, "Lonnie" Green. also
came through a winner in both the
morning and afternoon. He had rather
easy time in the first affair. defeating
A NJ. Chesley five up and three to play,
but in the afternoon H. p. Cobey car
ried him to the nineteenth hole before
losing.
The third sixteen was productive of n
number of close matches. A. A. Birney
eliminated Rudolph Kaufman and L.
b. T. johnson defeated John Tyssowsk
in nineteen-hole matches. Rankin and
Collins, Bannockburn golfers, also played
the extra hole.
Truett Plays Well. |
In this sixteen George Truett, of the
home club. took two matches, defeating
H. F. Clark in the morning and }. I. |
Hendrick in the afternoon play. Truett S
play in the second match was an excel |
lent piece OF work, and 1t is highly prob
able that had he been forced to playl
he course he would have returned the
Dwest score yet made
Both Browning. of the Washington
sDuntry Club, and Watts, of the Column
h4 Country Club. were forced to the
End by their opponents. Watts gained
his match on the eighteenth green, while
]. l. Writ and Browning fought out an
extra hole.
Play was completed yesterday in the i
first round of the consultations, ana to- |
day the tournament ends witf=the play
ing of of the semi-fnals and finals in /
all classes. The semi-hnais will start
