Jerome d. Travers. the national anna

to 80 to the twentieth hole before he
could eliminate Charles II. Brown, or

the bracket Gilman p. Tiffany, of the
home club, disposed of 7. III. Crane. OF
Saegkill, to the tune of up and to
play, 80 that Tiffany will clash with
Travers in the 36-hole final match to-
day.
Earlier in the day the Upper Montclair
wizard took the measure Of r. d. Camp
bell, of Dorset Field. by up and / to
play. 1t was evident then that Travers
was not going his usual gait, for at
times he lapsed on the green's. The
Powelton greens are somewhat different
from the fine grown swards usually seen
in the immediate vicinity of New York,
and anything which affects his putting
is more likely to trouble him than al
most anything else. Still, his tee shots
were faulty at times. In the first circuit
of the nine-hole course Travers required
at the eighth. where he topped his
drive into some long grass, and after
two more tries 10 get clear picked up. He
was out in 10. He struck his stride re-
turning. however, and covered the dis
lance i'm 3d.
Against Brown the champion found
himself in much the same situation.
Trayers was up by the time the fifth
was reached the second time, and he lost
the hole through overapproachng the
green so as to get his ball in the long
grass close by the fence on the edge OF
the tennis courts. He wasted several
strokes before he picked up. Three
halved holes followed, and then Brown, a
former Hudson River champion, re-
minded the gallery Of other days by get
ting down a ten-foot put on the home
green. winning the hole and bringing tbs
match level. Each man had a good
at the first extra hole. and a fsultess
at the second settled the match for Tray.
