LOCAL GOLFERS ANXIOUS TO SEE
TRAVERS AND OUINIET MEET HERE
Disappointed That Two Stars Did Not Clash at Merton
Fownes Great Stymie Shot Sensation of
Leslie Cup Meeting

Local golf fans had everything In the
way of matches between the stars last
week at Merton that they have been
pining for, except the one big one which
the whole country is hoping for before
the season ends, and that is a little go be-
tween Jerry Travers and Francis Ouimet
These two famous players both performed
before large galleries, but did not come
together. Local promoters have not yet
given up hope of staging the big match
in this city. and a sincere effort will be
made to get the two stars together be-
fore the month is over.
Neither would make any definite prom
ises as to an exact date, but were fairly
willing to meet
Poor Captain Bill Fownes, Of the Penn
sylvania team had TO do all the heavy
work for his delegation. but to say he
responded nobly is putting 1t mildly On
FrifHY he sent Francis Oumet a-tum-
bling after 10 holes, and Saturday he
climbed out Of bed to buck Jerry Travers
and then he carried the match to the nth
green after being four down at one time.
Both Fownes and Travers pulled shot
that brought prolonged yipping and claps
from the gallery On the nth Fownes
poked down a pitch shot which stood up
not three feet from the pin. Travers
dropped his cigarette. and in a cloud OF
smoke pleasantly dropped his ball be-
tween the other ball and the hole for a
near-stymie. This is not being done ex-
cept in the best circles.

shouts when he faced a dead stymie on
the 18th. rravers' ball was on the lip of
