DOPE OF GOLF
1t Looks as If Low Medal.
ist Will Carry Off the
Honors.


golf that the low medalist should
not win out In the first sixteen at
match play. This is generally fol-
lowed, but 1t looks very much as IL
Edward Styles is going to "spill
the beans" In the Washington Golf
and Country Clubs annual spring
event, as, by yesterdays victories
over Walter r. McCallum, winner
Rof the Columbia tournament last
year. and George T. Cunningham. he
went. into the. semi-finals. and Is
slated to meet Hugh Mackenzie in
this mornings play. George z. Tru-
EFT and Allan Lard are the semi
finalists in the lower half II Styles
game of the last two days may be
taken as a criterion. his chances for
ultimate honors appear exceptionally
bright. as, aside from the fact that
he Is playing on his home course,
he has been turning in cards in the
low 7Os with great regularity.
Yesterdays play brought out some
keen competition, and a number OF
matches called for extra holes. In
the first flight, John Brawner carried
John Clapp an extra hole before sue
cumbing, while 1t took an Jackson
nineteen to beat John A. Kratz I'm
the second. A. L. Thurman and J..
H. Graves. also in the second six
teen. went an extra hole. while three
pairs in the third had to travel this
distance before winners could be de-
clared.
John Davidson's defeat at the hands
Of George e. Truett. in the second
round d; the first fight, came as
quite a surprise. This match was
a nip and tuck" affair, the former
being uo at one time. At the four
teenth Truett had him down, but
he caught him on the seventeenth,
but lost out on the home hole. The
