RYE. y. Y, Sept. 23.-The second do
tachment of senior golfers-about 100
OF them. ranging in age from IS to "a
'ook possession OF the Apawamis links
to-day and began their assault upon the
array of prizes that d%ecorates a table
IN the main parlor OF the clubhouse.
Most OF the seniors were visitors, HI
when the day OF golf was over and
the scores all added up 1t was discov-
cred that two Apawamis golfers had
80 far forgotten their duties as hosts as
TO win both OF the prizes for the days
play.
FRANK IL. Presbrey, who not only is a
member OF the Apawamis Club. but
this year was made chairman OF the
seniors ourname committee and TO
whom was entrusted the task OF seeing
that every visitor enjoyed himself to
the uttermost. was one of the victors.
He played with Justice Mahlon Pitney
OF the United States Supreme Court,
and evidently decided that in such dis
tinguished company he ought to play his
hest golf. lie did play his best and,
going out In - and coming back In -.
compiled a total of SO, a gross score,
which nobody succeeded in beating.
Justice Pitney was not quite as good
as his partner and host and lois,
Sc. was the jurist's score when the
round was over Tucked away in that
f~orDidding lOl. however, was a .ittle 2
made on The eighth hole. which warmed
the Justices heart almost as much as
a low total for the entire round would
nave done. Then. too. Justice Pitney
won a prize last year and was per-
fectiy willing TO let some OF the others
have a chance.
Martin Carey was the other Apa-
wants golfer who helped TO make the
days prizewinning a home AFFAIR. He
too made the round In So. and as he
had a handicap OF II strokes, his net
scnr' was 10. good enough to lead the
Held ny a four stroke margin. Prob
ably he will decide to take the net prize
FOR to-day. for II he doesn't there will
he a three cornered tie for that prize OF
~. The three who tied at that figure
were Julian W. Curtiss. once of Yale
and now OF Greenwich. whose score
was e5-l6, 10, and a pair OF st. A.
drew's golfers, John II. Duny. 1912,
10. and John G. Wood. lO0-2l, 10.
As for the rest OF the 1870 a good
