Miss Stirling Satisfied

or much.
Miss Stirling Satisfied
As for Miss Stirling, she was quite
satisfied to simply qualify. She said /,
so after her round, which totaled 80
strokes.
4 was quite satisfied with my game
e-day and am we'll content to qualify
for the championship
Match play, of course, is Miss
Leitchs long suit. At this. as she has
proved for the last four or five years.
she bows to none. She is not noted
as medal player and does not aim
aim 10 win medals in this respect.
While she did not play up to her
usual standard, according to those who
know her game, she did show enough
to impress everybody and to indicate
she will go long way in this meeting.
Miss Leitch is noted for her long game,
but from what she showed to-day she
has nothing on either Miss Hollins or
the trim Providence star. 1t was her
short game that impressed everybody
here to-day. The manner in which this
athletic English girl goes after an iron
shot shows she means business. There
is nothing resembling feebleness in
that respect.
Undoubtedly Miss Leitch was taking
things rather easy in qualifying. She
must have known q fairly good score
OF ninety or thereabouts would qualify
and it is seldom indeed she ranges
above that mark.
AS matter of fact the double figures
Of ninety-nine were good enough to ad-
NIT one to the championship proper,
which starts tomorrow. Practically
every noted PLAYER in the field, il Miss
Edith Cummings. of Chicago, is ex
cepted. qualified for the first round Of
match play. Thirty-two is the number
that will tee Off tomorrow in the strife
Tor the coveted prize.
Miss Leitch an Attraction
Everybody will of course. be watch
inr Miss Leitch, meantime keeping an
of eve on our own champion, Miss
Sterling. But there are several others
in the field who will have to be
watched. There is besides Miss Coll
eft. the hard-hitting Marion Hollins for
Instance.
Miss Hollins had the same score as
Miss Sterling SO. That represents
sound golf on the part Of each Of these
stars and proved that both arc playing
well. Mrs. Thomas Hocknail, who
SHOT an IS. is we'll worth consideration,
50 is the star Philadelphian, Mrs. Clar-
ence Nandcrbeck, who he'd an even so.
Mrs. william A. Gavin, metropolitan
t+le-bolder, PLAYED with Miss Cecil
Jeitch. The Belleclaire Club repre-
sentative was not playing as well as
she can on this round, but managed to
qualify.
Miss Collett was in fine fettle and
going strong most OF the way Sne
encountered rough spots, quite nat
ufally. On the eighth hole, for instance,
she was bunkered and took TOR the
hole She took d on the tenth also,
out there are not many who Will better
on this hole. On the eleventh the
Providence lass was stymled BY the
trees and took another 6, and at the
eighteenth hole she went out Of bounds.

Tie best match scheduled for the

game is apt 70 eliminate the metro

is IN exceptionally fine match player.
