Miss HOllu1S Makes
NeW Record at Golf

rs 20 who will triumph. although Miss
Hollins, because Of her record break
ing round. is slightly favored. But the
little EnClishwoman's deadly short
game may turn the tide in her favor,
and II il does the danger Of another
American championship going to the
fair visitor will be greatly increased.
IL was before crowd that stood
about the first tee five and six deep
that Miss Hollns and Mrs. Fraser
drove off in their match. Miss Hollins
got beautiful tee shot straight down
the line and followed this with a bras
sic that left only a mashie pitch to the
green. The Westbrook girl caused
thrill when she laid her third within
two feet of the pin and then sank the
putt for four. The distance from tee
TO hole is 446 yards. and when a man
gets in in n par 8 he has something TO
talk about at the nineteenth hole"
The next two were made in 8 and 4
by Miss Hollins, and on the long four
over the pond she had to take a after
being confronted by n dead Stymie. At
the third hole the Westbrook girls sec
ond shot landed her on the side of a
bunker. but she recovered brilliantly
with her mashie, laying her ball dead
TO the hole.
The next FIVE holes were reeled off in
two over par, giving the former cham,
pion 40 to the turn. Coming home she
wasted precious strokes by taking three
puts on the tenth, fifteenth and six.
teenth, else her medal score might well
have been two or three strokes better
than 10 was.
Although ut a number Of holes the
short tees are in use for the women,
George Low, the club professional, de-
clared Miss Hollins's score yesterday
was a remarkable performance for a
woman.
Here is the card;
n n . ...........:: tstsi: SG..ss-s,
Mrs. Gavin Not Extended.
Not being extended at any time, Mrs
Gavin did not have to put forth extra
efforts, especially after the match end
ed on the twelfth green. Nevertheless,
she created a decided impression by
the all around excellence Of her play.
particularly when anywhere within l25
yards Of the green. In spite of the
fact that she started poorly, having no
less than five IS on the first nine holes,
the former Shirley Park golfer reached
the turn in 10 and then had the match
we'll in hand.
The first five holes coming in were
taken in two over 4 by the little visitor,
but on the fifteenth she got into diff
eulties with one of the steep bunkers
and needed for the hole. At the next,
however Burn Hole, $50 yards in
length-Mrs. Gavin made ample amends
by registering a sensational 4, as
against the par Of 3.
After a faultless drive, the Eastern
champion sent a brassie shot whistling
down the fairway, with Just sufficient
height to clear the dangerous bunker
that lays in wait fer the unwary or
the short hitter. When Mrs. Gavin
the clump Of woods, il looked as though
the best She could do was a 6, but Just
there she showed her courage and the
skill Of Travers with mashie-nib
lick.
With the ball nesting far down in
the long grass, the little English wom-
an whipped il out clearly and sent it
sailing on its way to the green, thirty
feet away. The backspin she impaired
to the stroke was sufficient 10 bring the
rubber core to a stop dead to the hole,
and it was no trick at all then to sink
the putt for 4, the best figure re-
corded at this hole during the tourna-
ment.
Mrs Gsvin's card follows:
o. Out . ............ss tE -
Mrs. Stockton played evenly in her
match with Miss Pickhardt, except for
her putting which was perverse
enough to vex one blessed with even
an ordinarily equable temperament.
She was 4 up at the turn, which she
reached in az, and ended the struggle
on the thirteenth.
