HAFFNER BEATS RISLEY AT GOLF
 IN ATLANTIC CITY
Corporal Springs Surprise By Defeating Home
 Champion.


 Atlantic City, N. J., Oct 19.---One of the favorites was eliminated in the second round of the fall golf tourna- ment at the Country club of Atlantic City yesterday when Maurice Risley' the home champion, lost to George Eoffner of Ba1a: The last named will meet w. c. Baldwin of North Hills III the lower. seni-final bracket today while on the upper side F. W. Knight of Aronfmink and Alex Coles of Shaw nee will clash.
 Considering that Hoffner now Corporal at Camp Meade, has played little or no golf for the last three months he did we'll to win yesterday. His match in the early hours against IC. H. Maxwell of Trenton remained l in doubt to the home green. Max well, who had been down practically all the way, got the match square at the sixteenth but lost the next and then halved the eighteenth after be- ing in a bunker. Hoffner had an 8l for the round, not bad considering the wind, all the more noticeable af- ter yesterdays summer-ike weather. | Although the scoring was not par2 ticularly low in the Hoffner-Risley match, it was always worth watching, the men never being more than a hole apart until Hoffner won the sixteenth and became dormie. A half at the I next left him a winner by 2 and L. He made the inward nine in 3S. i Coles went out in 39 against H w. | Wood in the morning, and as a re- suit won handily. but later on the Shawnee man was forced to the home green to defeat F. W. Harper of Tren- ton. Knight, who played steadily in !, defeating Thomas Conroy of Fox Hills in the morning, reversed the decision of their recent Shawnee match. The summary follows:
