SECOND R0UNDENDS
Several Matches Take Place
in Columbia Golf Tourney.
BUM DEFEATS De M0LL
But Wins Only After Loser Has
Made Brilliant Squirt From
Behind.

The second round of the July golf
tournament of the Columbia Country
Club was completed yesterday after
noon, several semi-final round matches
were played, and the first round of the
various sixtsens in the consultations
were gotten out of the way. The event
is a handicap one in which the lower
handicap player is compelled to start
his opponent a number of holes up
equal to half the difference in their
ratings with the fraction "one-half'
to count.
The rains during the early part of
the week were responsible for several
defaults, especially in the consultations,
but many of the matches played were
close and brought out some good golf.
De Mol in Close Match.
Probably the most interesting match
was furnished by Otto J. DE Moll and
A. NJ. Bum in the semi-finals of the
third sixteen, the latter winning by 1
up. De Moll was 5 down going to the
twelfth, but he suddenly rallied and took
the twelfth. thirteenth. fourteenth, fif-
teentn and sixteenth. halving the match

and gained the decision by halving the
home hole.
S. A. Reeves and Guy Saffold also

winning. l up, by taking the last hole
after nip and tuck" battle.
The semi-fnals will be played this
week, and should bring out some bril-,
liant golf. especially in the first six
teen. in which George James. c. V. Van
Leer, Eddie" Eynon and Donald
woodward are the survivors.
