down at the end Not a woman in Phila-
delphia could have stood up against her
game And a comparison of her card with
that Of Miss Caverly, who was only two
strokes over, shows that the national fnalist
would have been two down at the turn and
at the end Of the twelfth hole, where the
match ended with Miss Chandler, would
have been four down.
II was one of the finest exhibitions OF
golf ever seen in this city. particularly In
view OF the horrible weather, for not only
were the women fighting against the rain

Mrs Stetson and Mrs. Munson had
very interesting match, but the brand OF
golf that the Huntingdon Valley player put
up was too much for the Merton golfer and
while she made n brave effort to stem the
tide Il was futile and the match ended on
the fifteenth hole.
Mrs Billsten made Miss Caverly work
hard for her victory in spite of the splendid
forty.hve that Miss Caverly had for the
first nine holes Miss Caverly got n nice
lead on the first nine, but Mrs. Billstein

WILL AIM TO REDUCE THE
RAIL FREIGHT CONGESTION
Federal Committee Seeks Co-Opera-
ton of Shippers and Roads for
Motor and Horse Vehicles.

Efforts to reduce congestion about
railway freight terminals by greater
use of motor and horse vehicles for
distribution of certain classes of freight
in restricted areas will be made
through the new highway transport
committee of the Council of National
Defense. The committee announced
that il does not contemplate the opera
ticn of any truck lines itself, but has
begun careful study of the sItua-
ton, with a view to making recon-
mendations for the cooperation of ship
pers and railroads.
One roblem to which particular at
tention will be given is that of congest-
ed freight sheds and cars held to be
unloaded. The committee will seek
ways and means of keeping delivered
freight moving out of the sheds more
promptly, and also Of releasing load
ed cars with less delay.
