AMERICAN GOLFER LOSES TITLE ON HOLE PLAY.
IRepublican A. p. Leased WireI

MUIRFTELD. Scotland, June H. After having had the British amateur golf championship laurels all but with in his grasp, Robert 4. Gardner of Chicago today went down to defeat when he lost in the finals to Cyril Tolley of the Oxford university team after a hard fought, sensational match which was all square at the thirty sixth hole and necessitated the play ing of an extra hole.
 The match was a battle royal from the start, but at the end of the first round Gardner was up and bade fair to fulfill the predictions of ex- perts that he would capture the cham pionship. In the second round. how ever, Tolley forged ahead and was three up on his opponent with only four to play.
 Gardner fought doggedly and amidst intense excitement on the part of the spectators made it all square at the thlrty-sixth only to lose the extra hole
 Public interest in the match was at the highest pitch. This was the sec ond time in the history of the cham pionships that an American had reached the finals. Not since Walter J. Travis beat Edward Blackwell for the championship in 1904 had a Yankee got so far as Gardner. despite repeated invasions from across the water
 Big Gallery Follows Play
 Fully 5000 persons witnessed the match. Walter Hagan and Jim Barnes the American professionals. who yes terday defeated two English profes- sionals in a golf match at Croydon. England, travelled all night to be present Tolley is only q years old and this was the first time he had reached a championship final
 He is powerfully built, hits a very long ball and played throughout the series with the greatest care.
 Gardner was very accurate with his long approach butts today, but failed sadly with some of the short ones. He led at the end of the first round, but the turning point came at the fifth and sixth holes of the second half, both of which he threw away on the green. He thereby lost the lead and for a few holes seemed to lose his nerve But when the card became three down with four to go he played with re- newed determination.
 Having a temporary relapse in his putting, Tolley was brought back to dormfe one and lost the home hole where he-was first in the rushes and then in a bunker. Gardner put his tee shot to the thirty on the green nine yards to the left of the pin, but TolIey played a beauty only four yards short Of the hole and got the putt after Gardner had laid his second a yard from the pin. Gardner thus had par three, but Tolley won the hole in two and took the match.
 The loser received almost as great an ovation as the winner. The cards read:

TEMPE, June Hold time rivals on the baseball diamond, Tempe and Mesa, will clash in the third game of the Central Arizona league series on the local field Sunday afternoon. Capt. Harry Stewart. who has been elected to the lead of the Tempe club this week, will likely be pitted against the visitors, while Mesas old stand by Lefty Lush, is expected to work against him. Both of these pitchers have been defeated once this season by opposing clubs and speculation is rife as to who the top notcher will be Sunday.
 No change in the lineup of either the Tempe or Mesa club is expected for the Sunday game Both teams have been doing good for the past two weeks and their coaches are working on the theory that only hard practice will tend to any betterment-witht the result that hard work outs are the vogue in both Tempe and Mesa.
 The Sunday game will be played on the fast Tempe high school field and hundreds of fans from all the southside are expected to attend.
