+ TO visit in Bristol on last Thursday,
arriving in time to witness the win

qualifying score Of ai-y Grecneville
representative getting into the cham
pionship fight; says he will know bet
ter next time. Tom was matched
against Claud Taylor, the Bristol boy
who gave the Whittle pool such jolt
last year at the State tournament.

the first fight consolation, where he
made game but losing fight to come
through, but went down before Mr..
Whaley, the man who won the medal
for low score in the qualifying round.
Judge Harmon had his opponent,
Sandy Osborne, four down at the

snappy come-backs and beat the
Judge on the 18th green, after which
these two genial gentlemen repaired
to the 10Th and proceeded to play it
aar, which they both openly admit is
40 mea nperformance for either one
Of them.
G. G. Smith played a consistent
game right down the fair-way at all
times, when he wasn't off in the
rough, and lasted through until the
finals of the third fight consolation,
when he went down before the Prov
ess of Mr.. Brown, who was laying
them dead down the course, having
abandoned his wood club and stick
ing to the iron. Mr.. Smith says that
he was thoroughly satisfied in his
premier showing in this golf classic,
as we'll as the lev ether games he
came in contact with EN- route.
w. H. Doughty says, yes, Mr.. Stull
was there, Courses on his fatal
crutch) and that he knew that as
soon as he laid eyes on this menace
to any golfers ambitions, that it was
all off with him. Mr.. Doughty did
not have the pleasure (?) Of meet
ing Mr.. Stull in match as they quail
fled in different fights, but says that
If he had, that he would probably not |
have lasted as long as Claud Taylor
did against this three-legged phenom
who put Claud out g up and 5 to go. |
Mr.. Doughty says that the only sup
he got from the cup Of sweets was in (
his decisive defeat Of Cocky Aber-
erombie, who, although he was play /
ing in top form, was put out down I
and 6 to go. This Abercronhie fell
