Long Island Star Carries
Off Trophy by Winning
Final Match, 3 and 1
BY Ray Mccarthy


NEW LONDON, Conn, Aug. g.
Playing the same kind Of dazzling
golf she showed yesterday in defeat
ing Mrs. William A. Gavin, the long
driving Marion Hollins, of the South
Shore Club, of Long Island. triumphed
over Mrs. II. Arnold Jackson in the
final round for the Griswold trophy
on the Shenecossett links here to-day.
The score of the match was up and
l to play.
Miss Hollins's victory to-day was a
fitting climax to week of wonderful
golf performances, of which hers have
been by far the most brilliant and
most convincing of all. The former
metropolitan champion starting on the
of her opponents, displaying brand
of golf she never before had exhibited.
Miss Hollins, hig, strapping girl
with plenty of power in her arms to
get the punch into her game, will
drive as long as most men stars, and
it she had done any kind of putting
to-day she would have been around in
the low 70s. Her weakness on the
greens cost her several holes and
boosted her medal score to an approx
mate 80, a remarkable tally for a
woman to make on this course.
A Card of 40 Going Out
Miss Hollins, on the outgoing trip,
was travelling in high all the way, and
was out in the astounding tally of an
even 40. Better putting would have
given her 38 at least She was 8
up at the turn, and apparently on the
way to an easy win. But coming back
her swift pace slackened somewhat,
and Mrs. Jackson, who never let down
for one moment, finally managed to
at the thirteenth hole Bot here Miss
Hollins turned loose her cannon-like
shots again and spurted, leaving the
former national champion struggling
gallantly il. q rear.
Miss Holm, playing the first hole
as it should be played on-in and
2 putts-got par in for win
and began the match 1 up. She lost
her advantage, however, IN the second
hole, where she took puts, after
it had taken to get on. Mrs.
Jackson also consumed three strokes
in reaching the green, but holed out
in puts.
Then 1t was the Internationally star
began a terrific sprint, playing the
next five holes in par figures, and al
though Mrs Jackson valiantly strug-
gled to keep pace she found herself
2 down. At the seventh Miss Hollins
made a wonderful recovery from the
rough on her third shot to get half
in 5, and when Mrs: Jackson, after
playing two fine shots to the green,
took four puts. the Long Island wom-
an was three holes to the good AL
though both missed their second shots
at the ninth they played the hole to
get two 5s.
Miss Hollins was just off the green
in two shots at the tenth, yet she took
a beating past the hole on her
approach putt and requiring three
puts in all to get down Mrs. Jack
son won the hole with a good and
after halving the next in threes got
off a beautiful third shot to the green
and won that also. At the long thir-
teenth she was in on d, her fourth
being an exceptionally well-played ball
and squared matters there, Miss Hol-
Inns again taking three puts for a
7, the hole on which she got won
derful birdie four yesterday.
Mrs. Jackson in Ill Luck
Miss Hollins came to life at this
point and played two exquisitely fine
shots that left her within eight feet
of the pin putting for bird three.
Mrs. Jackson had bit of bad luck on
this hole, which changed the COM
plexion of the issue entirely. Her
second was we'll played but bit off
the line and it caught trap just in
front Of the green. In coming out she
played far over the green and conceded
the hole.
Both got good threes at the up hill
fifteenth and at the sixteenth. Miss
Hollins dropped a ten-foot putt which
left her dormie two, as Mrs. Jackson
after catching a trap on her second
needed 5 to hole out. At the seven.
, teenth Miss Hollins reeled off two
gorgeous blows that left her almost
hole high and got an easy four to wiz
the hole and match Thus had she
played the eighteen and got a 1
despite two 6s and she would have
had an even 30 for the incoming trip
Unbeatable golf for women.
Mrs. Hutchinson, of the Woodbury.
Club, sprang big surprise, when she
defeated the capable Miss Elizabetl
Gordon, of Providence, in the fina
round of the second sixteen by score
of up. Mrs. Hutchinson played Crane
golf all the way in obtaining her vic
tory.
