The Americans had little trouble
in disposing Of the most formid-

matches.
Before the matches the chances
Of the Americans in the singles
were considered excellent, but lit
tie hope was extended for them in
the foursomes.
Chick Evans and Bobby Jones
put the American colors on top in
the first match when they beat
Simpson and jenkins OF thesBritish
team in a foursome five up and
three to go.
Ouimet and Guilford repeated the
victory in the second match by
beating Cyril Tolley, the British
champion, and Holderness, 3 up
and 2 to go.
The third match also went to the
Americans when Hunter and Rlatt
defeated Montmorency and Weth-
cred, l up.
The last match, making q clean
sweep, was taken by the Ameri-
cans when Wright and Fownes beat
Aylmer and Armour, 4 up and 2

The Americans showed great
form and we're literally applauded
