FELIX is CITY CHAMPION
Country Club Golfer Won in Finals
From Harlow Hurley.

Ilif Felix is Topeka's best golfer in
the 1921 season. He was crowned city
champion after his victory from Har-
low Hurley Sunday on the Shawnee
course. The final count was taken
when Felix was five up and four to
play in the last round of the scheduled
thirty-six holes. s.aEss.-
Felix seemed to have things cinched
from the start. He led by a. hole at
eighteen, and six up on the twenty
seventh hole.
The large gallery that followed the
match most of the play, was treated
to thrills from time to time, as one of
the players would show an exception
ally flashy burst. Both men were
playing good golf, altho Hurley seemed
to have lost his usual control of the
ball.
After the first nine holes. Felix and
Hurley settled down to steady con-
sistent playing. Words were few, and
most of the spectators were too en-
crossed in the play to pass the fat"
Felix had a comfortable lead. Hurley
was trying to overcome, and at times
he clouded up but never was able to
square the match.
On the twenty eighth hole Hurley
gave the gallery another thrill when
he made a sensational shot from the
bad rough on to the green. He made
a par four on this hole. The twenty
ninth was halved. and Felix took the
thirtieth when Hurley slumped and
missed a. two-foot putt.
Tension was high on the thirty-first
hole. Hurley was nearing defeat I'M
less he could show a brilliant burst
that would carry over. But ne
couldn't. Harlow took the thirty-first
but was dornie; then Felix ended
things by halving the thirty-second.
A loving cup was the prize offered
by the Shawnee club.
Felix has been shooting t'hot" golf
turnout the summer. Close observers
of his game have doped him as the city
champion since the beginning of the
hot spell. He recently shot No. 8, a
par four hole, in two and topped off
that feat by lowering the course rec
