WOMEN GOLFERS
IN SEMEF|N
Misses HOIIins and Curtis Only
American Survivors in Ii
tie Tourney.
MISS HARRISON ELIMINATED

WILMINGTON. Del. Oct. 17.--one
Of the largest galleries of the tourney
followed the semi-fnalists today in
the competition for the women's
national golf championship over the
course of the Wilmington Country
Club. Patriotism drew many TO fol-
low the match between Miss Marion
Hollins, of New York, the 1913 metro
politan champion, and Miss Harriet
Curtis, Of Boston, former national
title-holder, the only Americans left
in the struggle for the national prize.
Others watched the contest between
Miss Muriel Dodd and Miss Gladys
Ravenscroft, of Great Britain.
For the third time in succession
Miss Muriel Dodd the British title
holder, ended her match on the fff
teenth green yesterday. On this &C
casion she won at the expense Of Mrs.
Z. II. Vanderbeck, of Philadelphia
The other successful foreign visitor
was Miss Gladys Ravenscroft. The
only foreign reverse came in the elm
ination of Miss Mabel Harrison. Of
Ireland at the hands of Miss Curtis.
There were times when both Miss
down, but when they got fairly under
way they soon produced too many
shots for their American opponents.
When Mrs. Nanderbeck brought off a
useful putt on the seventh green the
British champion found herself ?
! down. That seemed to rouse Miss
Dodd, who from that point played the
! kind of golf that wins in almost any
company. She started home like the
champion she is, making four holes
in fourteen strokes. Against that
Mrs. Vanderbeck could do nothing,
and at the next two holes left Miss
Dodd a winner by up and to play.
Getting away to better start, Miss
Curtis generally held the upper hand
throughout her tilt with Miss Harri-
son. The Irish girl made a poor ap-
proach at the first. and never had a
chance at the second, where the Es-
sex county player drove the green
and trimmed the cup for a 2. Miss
Curtis made q hash of the long third.
but turned for home 2 up. Both went
out in 49, AT the fifteenth the foreign
visitor was trapped so that Miss Cur
tbs, winning in to 6. had the match
by UP and 8 to play.
The only match carried to the home
green resulted from the meeting of
Miss Hollins and Mrs. E. H. Filter. of
Philadelphia. Longer off the tee,
Miss HoIlins should have gained a
comfortable lead. but she threw away
her opportunity until she finally
found herself down with 4 holes to
play. Mrs. Filter weakened badly,
losing all four To the hole Miss Hol-
Inns got fine s.
The driving competition in the
afternoon was won by Miss Dodd.
with a total of 534 yards for three
drives. Miss Lillian B. Hyde was Sec
ond with All.
In the approaching and putting
Miss Margaret Curtis won. At the
outset several tied at 3, but on the
play-off Miss Curtis won with 8.
