Ea-NutionaI Champion Played
Brilliantly to Win Two Titles
and Several Journeys
By SANDY McNIBLICK

A Ny attempt to rank the fair sex of
"A the Philadelphia golt district for
the season Of 1921 rcvolves mostly
around Mrs. Clarence II. Vandcrbect
She Is so far ahead OF the parade
that it's hard to form the rest in
line.
If there we're any question about the
Cricket Club stars right to be ranked
No. I. her winning the Philadelphia
championship would virtually settle
the question.
Mrs. vanderbeck went right down TO
the national championship at Holly
wood before she was beaten in match
play, and there not till the semi final
round IF she had been able to come
through the intricacies Of an eighteenth
hole finish with Alcxa Stirling there
Mrs. Eanderbeck. quien sabe. might
lave been the American champion for
the second time. In the final she
would have played Marion Hollins, and
Mrs. Nandcrbeck had beaten Miss Hol-
Inns only short time before at
Shawnee. But this is not a tale Of
"ifs."
Miss Caverly Runner Up
Miss Mildred Caverly vas easily sec
ond to Mrs. Vanderbeck OIL the season $
records. Miss Caverly was runncr-up for
the championship and on both the Geist
and Mary Thayer Farnum cup tourna-
mcnts.
Mrs. Caleb +. Fox and Mrs. G..
Henry Stetson, both Of Huntington
Valley, come next, with Mrs. Alex
Smith. North Hills, disputing the posi-
tions there. All three played their usual
steady game, and the leading quintet was
good enough to beat individually most
Of tho others in the district who would
be ranked below them.
Mrs. f. II. Ware. Whitemarsh Mrs.
f. G.. Betz, Country Club Miss Kath-
arine Hutchinson, Woodbury.; Miss
Margaret Doyle. Torresdale; Mics Helen
Meehan, Cednrbrook; Mrs. g. s. Nun
son. Mrs. ]. Turnbull. Miss Marsaretta
Dixon, Miss Charlotte Cheston,' Mrs.
Raymond Slotter and Miss +. G.. Hood
all had happy days on the links during
the year and deserve places somewhere.
Attempts to rank them would be too
complicated.
Cricket Club Shines
The season opened ms usual with the
team competition in the three leagues
The Cricket Club varsity on the first
division as expected. and its second
team quite daz2led the suburban divi-
sion by romping through unbcaten. 1t
also fought its way into the Philadel-
phia League so that for the first time
