TRAVIS BEATS DOUGLAS
History Repeated in Golf Match.
Which Nets 5000 for War
Work Fund.

NEW YORK, November 1.-THE
golf match between Walter J. Travis
and Findlay S. Douglas. in the united
war work campaign exhibition. ever
the links of the Garden City Golf Club
yesterday afternoon. in a way found
history repeating itself. Travis won
on the home green. even as he did
eighteen years ago in the final of the
national championship. The winners
margin was 1 up
Approximately $4,000 was raised for
the cause. That phase of the pro-
gram began just prior to the start of
the players. when Frank M. Bacon,
president of the club, asked for bids
on the scoring privilege. and also for
caid,c rights. Martin w. Littleton
paid 500 to be the official scorer. and
he also bid $3.50 to be Travis caddie.
Howard Maxwell bid similar amount
for the privilege of caddying for
Douglas, and he suited the action to
the word by carrying the clubs. In
stead of Littleton carrying for Trav-
is. the job was turned over to a small
boy.
After the match the auctioneering
was renewed. the object being to dis
pose OF the mucn-pr1Zeo putter Win
which Travis won the British title at
Sandwich in 1904. The bidding quick
ly mounted up. until L. H. Lapham of
the home club topped the list with a
bid of $1,700. Lapham then did thing
which was appreciated by every one,
making a present Of the putter to the
Garden City Golf Club.
AS was expected, when Douglas kept
straight he had the greater distance
with his wooden clubs. but lack Of
control landed him into much trouble.
