Several Stars Hard Pressed.
For several OF the favorites the
first round played yesterday was lit
tie more than good workout; for
those who found it slightly more seri-
Gus than the relaxation of daily
dozen done to the music of a victrola
one might mention Mrs. Hurd, Miss
Burns, and Mrs. Vanderbeck.
All three were in closest compan-
ship, winners of hard contests by the
slightest margin of victory, and this
in the case. of Mrs. Hurd only after
an extra hole of play.
Miss Collett. Miss Stirling and Miss
Cummings, who somehow seem to
stand out as the first line of attack
in this championship, played hne
golf yesterday.
hOutHiui IascE Shihes'
A wonderful stand against Mrs.
Vanderbeck was made by sixteen
year-old Maureen Orcutt of White
Beeches 1t was recalled that in her
second championship at Onwentsia
In 1915 Miss Stirling in the semi-fina!
carried Mrs. Fanderbeck to the
twenty second hole. The Atlanta
cnt age of Miss Orcutt. II was real
lied then that Miss Stirling in time
was bound to prevail.
Although each year the competition
IS becoming keener and stars more
numerous, the same prophecy would
almost be justified in the case of
Miss Orc who is so delightfully."-
rhythmical N her swing, so full of
golf and golf iction that she reminds
one of nothing - much as feminine
Bobby Jones.
Mrs. Vanderbeck probably was
thinking of that day in 1915 when
Miss Stirling gave her such a battle.
for Miss Orcutt carried her all of the
eighteen and only yielded to the
slimmest of margins with the hol-
ing of the last putt. There was
surprise for those who did not know
the sterling qualities of the little
New York miss when Mrs. Wander
beck arrived at the turn reporting
only l up. That surprise was in
tensifed when at the twelfth Miss
Orcutt proceeded to square the match
and then at the thirteenth to take
the lead. Mrs. Eanderbeck shot into
the lead again finally, but probably
never was she more pleased to see
a match end than this one.
