NO REVERSALSIN IN
WOMEN'S TOURNEY
Favorites Come Through to
Second Round in Golf Event
on ShennecOssett Links.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD
came through easily to-day in the first
match round OF the Shennecossett Coun-
try Club championship. The players
were paired according to the scores they
made yesterday In the qualifying round
which meant that none of the favorites
came together and will not until the
semi-finals.
A heavy course made scoring rather
difficult and steady rain that fell dur
ing the morning did not help the players
in their shots. Despite this fact there
was not a single default in the cham
pionship division. Strange to relate, a
home hole was absolutely unnecessary,
as not a single match got this far
Miss Glenna Collett. the medal winner.
played steady game against Mrs. Myra
d. Patterson. Knollwood. and defeated
her by and L. Miss Collett's long
driving was the deciding factor. as she
heavy fairways.
The rain was also a help to Miss
Marion Hollins. who drives ball that
IS nearly all carry. She played as we'll
as usual on the outward Journey and
covered this half in AZ strokes, despite
lost ball on the third hole. Her OPP
ponent was Mrs. c. B. Parsons of Shut
