ALEXA AND MARION
HOLLINS TO PLAY FOR
GOLF TITLE TODAY

Deal, n. J., Oct S.-Niss Alexa Stir
ling of Atlanta and Miss Marion Hol-
Inns of New York will play tomorrow
for the women's national golf cham
pionship, which Miss Stirling already
has won three times.
In the semi-inals today Miss Stir
ling defeated Mrs. c. II. Vanderbeck
of Philadelphia, l up, at the home
green. Miss Helms defeated Miss
Elaine Rosenthal of Chicago, UP,
on the nineteenth hole.
Miss Strings victory over Mrs.
Vanderbeck was the third time that
she put out the Philadelphia woman
in the semi-fnals of a national tour,
nament. The Georgia girl won be-
cause her occasional brilliance OIL
set otherwise erratic golf Never was
there more than a difference of one
hole between them.
Miss Stirling in addition had most
of the luck, her approach at the home
green just skipping trap and stop
ping at the edge of the green. Mrs
Vanderbeck dubbed her second shot
in playing this critical hole, but was
on the green in s. After Mrs. Wander
beck missed twenty foot putt that
might have squared the match, Miss
Stirling conceded her 5 and pro-
ceeded to play the hole for a safe
herself, giving her the match and
the right to defend her title in the
final tomorrow.
Miss Stirling was one up at the
turn, partly because of twenty-five
| foot putt that she holed on the short
third for par 3.
The match was squared at the tenth
/ when she drove out Of bounds They
were square again in the fourteenth
| when she won this hole because Mrs
| Vanderbeck got into a ditch. The
champion then lost the fifteenth by
driving out of bounds. They Went
to the sixteenth all square, and Miss
Stirling won it by being on the greer
with her third shot while Mrs, Van
derbeck was short.
AT the seventeenth Miss Stirling
had all the luck for half, her bal
kicking onto the green from bunk

opposite thing, rolling off into Il bat
lie.
