Mrs. Jackson, Miss Bishop,
Former National Cham
pions, Among the Victors
BY Ray Mccarthy

Miss Georgiana Bishop, star golfer Of
the Brooklawn Country Club, who won
the national championship back in the
good old days Of 1904; Mrs. William A.
Gavin the BeIleclaire Country Club
playec who has figured prominently in
all the important tournaments for the
past few years, and Mrs. H. Arnold
Jackson, of Greenwich, national cham
pion in 1914, are the favorites in the
Metropolitan women's championship at
Nassau this week.
This trio came through in good man
ner in the qualifying round, and yes
terday did all that was expected of
them by winning their matches de-
cisively. AS yet there is nc reason to
believe that one Of this triumvirate
won't win the title, vacated by Mrs
Quentin F. Feitner.
Mrs. Jackson, who led the field on
Monday, played fully as we'll on the
first round yesterday in eliminating
Mrs ]. II. Lapham, of the Apawamis
Club. The score Of the contest was
8 up and 2 to play. Although Mrs
Jackson played grand golf, going out
in 40, she found Mrs. Lapham worthy
opponent, one who made real issue Of
the meeting.
Mrs. Lapham In Form
Mrs. Lapham was going well herself
and keeping right on the heels OF the
medallist all the way. She was out II
48 and was only s down at the turn
Both continued to play we'll coming in,
but Mrs. Jackson was very steady and
hole, where Mrs. LaphaTn got into con-
siderable difficulty.
Going out, the only hole she lost
was the fourth, where she caught
trap on her second. The Greenwich
Club player was bunkered at the sew
enth also. but got a wonderful out,
dead t. the pin on her third. The
only hole she played badly was the
| twelfth, where she put two balls out OF
bounds and conceded the hole. That
left her but 1 up, but she sank an
eight-footeer on the next green for a
win and clinched the Issue at the six
| teenth.
The cards Of Mrs. Jackson and Mrs.
L7apham were as follows:
