Entry List

The great annual gathering of grand
Old gentlemen from many parts Of the
country brought their yearly test of
skill to close yesterday at the Apaw-
amis Club links. 1t was thirty six
hol~ test for supremacy among the
seniors, but the fact Of $40 entries hav-
lHg been received made it necessary to
string the event out into four days
play.
About half the field competed on the
first two days and the remainder on the
last two days, with the annual dinner
and meeting Of the Seniors Golf Asso-
clation being held during the progress
OF the tournament.
The two chief prizes are the best
gross and net scores, but the minor
lrzcs are almost innumerablc, and as
no player can win more tnan one prize
1T is difficult matter to tell who all
the winners are until all the scores
nave been thoroughly sifted.
The gross score winner is w. Il.
Truesdcll, Garden City, who was the
gross score winner on the first 1S holes
and the gross score winner on the first
SO holes, but his score held good for
the tournaments as he beat Edward j
iiasse, Philadelphia Club, by single
stroke. Hasse was the low score man
of the second section
he net score winner was Colonel +. L.
smith, Wilmington Country Club, who,
ike lrucsdell, had to surrender some
oil ms other winnings. OF the minor
prizes for those who competed on the
last two days, George S. O'Flyn. of the
Crescent Athletic Club. carried off the
highest honors for long driving, as his
drive from the first tee Yesterday
registered 232 yards. The best gross
score of the day was 50. made by f. A.
right. Baltusrol. previous tourna-
mcnt winner. The best net was 76.
made by 6. W. Statzell, Aronomink.
who had 76 to his credit. There was a

tween Martin Cary and J. j. Gushing.

be done in the gross and net score win
