QUINTET AND EVANS TO PLAY
 FOR AMATEUR GOLF TITLE

Roslyn. N. Y, Sept. 1o.-Charles Evans, Jr., of Chicago, and Francis Ouimet of Boston, each of whom has previously been amateur and open golf champions of the United States will play tomorrow at the Engineers Coun- try club for this years amateur title as result of their victories in the semi finals today.
 Ouimet defeated Robert T. Jones 2nd, the youthful star from Atlanta, Ga, s and 5, while Evans eliminated Edward P. Allis of Milwaukee, former Harvard captain, 10 and 8.
 Ouimet and Evans have met but once before in match play. Last year in the amateur tournament for the nationa! ti- tie at Oakmont, Pennsylvania, Ouimet eliminated Evans in the second round by 1 up at the home green. Evans held both the amateur and open title in 1916 and IS the only man to have wonboth championships in the same year. Ouimet won the open title when 20 years old in 1913 and was victorious in the aIpateu1 championship in 1914.
 Both finalists outclassed their oppon- ents today but the result of Evans match was considerably more in doubt until Allis began to go to pieces on the way out in the afternoon round. Ouimet displayed all round superiority over hi syouthful opponent. He was up at the IS hole and had impro"e1 thi I to five up at the turn in the afternoon round. Jones missed a short putt at tn, home green in the morning without eX cuse and failed to make another shor putt at his first afternoon hole whicl would have squared the match. A third putt which would have prob ably won a hole for Bobby was lost be cause of a humble bee It was buzzn around the ball when Bobby took hi butter cut of his bag. An official cease his arducus duties of pressing back tn grea. gallery and ordering them 70 kee quiet long enough to chase the bee ali put his megaphone over it. The dam.,e
 to Bobby, was apparently not a Dhysics sting but a psycholical depression. H had two butts for par four. The frE
 one went eight feet beyond the cup ap
 the second he missed Ned Allis, who's
 progress into the semi-fnals surprised q
 the prognosticators Fave every evidenc
 in his early playing today of continuir
 the excellent work which had marked h
 golf hitherto. After playing 16 holes ! was all square with Evans largely as
 result of two sensational butts. one 50 feet and one of 35 feet, each of whlc
 gave him a birdie 3.
 Evans consistently outdrove Allis IT
 17th hole was the beginning of the CT , for the Milwaukee star. Here he msst
 a three foot putt that would have pr
 him one up, and he never won anoth
 hole.
 Allis did not win one of the ten ilol
 played in the afternoon and halved on
 two of them.
