NEW YORK, oct. 16.-The 1914 COM
petitive season has practically closed for
Francis Oulmet. and Il may be said that
this season has been one of solid and
gratifying achievement for the amateur
champion. Starting out as the most
talked OF golfer OF the year, he went to
England and Scotland TO compete IN the
British amateur and open Championships.

at Sandwich, oumet qualified at Troon
in front OF all the British and visiting
amateurs for the open championship. but
IT, the open proper at Prestwick itself he
fell far behind, and was distinctly out OF
the running with an over eighty card in
the first round.
Not dismayed, he crossed the channel
to France and there won the French
amateur title at La BoulIe. Returning to
the United States with that prize to take
off the stigma OF the two Britsh defeats.
he entered the Massachusetts amateur
championship. which he had won the
previous year. He defended his title
brilliantly. never going above eighty In
any round. and living up to the reputa-
ton Of champion In every match except
that with W. c. Chick. where he let that
golfer win five straight holes from him.
Ouinaet Close Follower.
However, Ouimet came through with
flying oolors and then went out to Mid
lothian. In the Chicago district TO defend
his title of open champion, which he had
won In 1913 at BroOkline In the famous
playoff with Ray and Vardon. Al the
