SURE MEDAL PLAY IS BEST.
TraVers Thinks Match Game Unfair
For National Title.

Jerome Travers, national open golf
champion and probably Americas lead
ing amateur, is emphatically in favor
of deciding the national amateur golf
championship the same as the open
championship-by seventy-two holes
medal play.
Il have been advocating the adoption
of a seventy-two hole medal play round
as the amateur championship test for
over two years. said Jerry, land 1 am
convinced that it is the only fair test.
To begin with, it eliminates two ele-
ments of luck, the luck Of the draw
and the Stymie, which / think should
be abolished, except possibly when
man stymies himself. Then, too. a
man is playing not against one oppo-
nent, but against every man in the
field, and, as you hold the championship
to pick the best man, why not make
him play against every one of his Op-
ponents?
Il have played in both the amateur
and open championships" continued
Trayers Che didn't add that he had won
both of them, ''and l know that the
medal play test is the best. I should

NOTABLE VICTORY
FOR WILDER & WHITE
Architectural Magazine Devotes Much
Space to Plans for State Building
in Olympia, Wash.

In a recent issue of The American
Architect, published in New York

'cription of the proposed temple of

Under her original charter certain
government lands lying within the
tate of Washington were set aside
or specific purposes, and among them
we're those to be devoted to the pur
ose of erecting public buildings at
he state capitol. These lands, most of
hem covered with fine timber, became
more accessible through the develop
nent of railways, and in 1913 a con
sentative survey fixed the value of
ands and timber at nearly $6,0000 900,
efficient to provide for the erection
If capitol buildings and for their
maintenance. In 1909 the legislature
appointed a state capitol commission
With power to sell lands at their dis
.retiOn and to use the funds in the
erection of capitol building. It was
inally decided to have a capitol group,
and the Washington chapter of the
