ton, Riverton. To-day in
Star Match Of Semi-F' 'iinal

ne threatening weather and the ves
grass from the previous nights rains
put damper on the Womcn's Metro-
politan Golf Association Red Cross
tournament yesterday at the Apawamis
Club links. and there were some few
defaults, at least one irN each of - i.
first divisions. '"S
The majority of the competitors
however, were true blue, and thev uers
on hand bright and early to play. 70.
gardless of the weather conditions
Fortunately, it did not rain. althonos
it looked as though it might start
any moment.
The chief interest was centred in
the result of the matches in the first
eight, and especially those in which
the three leaders in the qualifying
round took part, as they were all in the
same bracket, and the one that remains
the longest of the three will be pretty
generally regarded as the most likely
winner OF the tournament, or the com
ing new champion of the year.
Mrs. L. c. Stockton Wins
Mrs. L. c. Stockton, Riverton. the
medall1st of the tourney, played against
Mrs. c. 7. Russell, Ardsley. and as
she went out in AZ, with six each ON

much trouble in winning her match bv

the first hole in bogey, but Mrs. Stock

The fact is that this was really the
star attraction of the day, although
neither of them played as we'll as they
