cup.
"Well, my ball lay a full 220 yards
from the flag, and after l had looked
over the tree that stymied me real
lied there was no possible chance for
me to play my second within speak
ing distance of the green. The tree
was tall and wide, with branches that
swept the ground. I could neither
hook nor slice around it, nor shoot
over or under. To play into the fair
way to its left would net almost no
distance.
Noticed Low Shed.
"At this point 1 took note of a low
+, shed extending a bit beyond the tree
and Is yards to the right. Per-
haps it was because 1 was playing
with q trick-shot artist like Joe Kirk
wood. Anyhow the thought came to
me that if l could shoot my ball off
the side Of that shed l might be able
to billiard it past the tree and get
into a good position well up the fair
way.
1T was my only chance and 1 took
it. Using an iron, 1 played low
shot that glanced off the wall per
fectly and came back to the fairway.
My ball was still 125 yards from
the flag. but / was filed with conf
dence after my successful billiarding
Using a full mashie l laid my ball
stone dead to the cup. In fact,
nearly holed 1t. 1t graZed the cup as
it passed to stop two feet beyond.

not to have lost that hole. Instead
of being 3 down We were only
down. Filled with new pep, we
sailed in and won two of the next
three holes with a birdie and an
eagle, halving the other one. That
squared the match. After that there
was no stopping us. We finally won
out. and 4. Making the proper lay
at a crucial moment was largely re.
sponsible."

is DRIVERS TO RACE

months, a motor race classic Of ma
tional importance, in which America s
leading speed demons will participate,
will be staged next Saturday at the
Baltimore Washington speedway. near
Laurel. Sixteen daredevil drivers will
vie for points toward the 1925 cham
pionship and for a $4,000 purse.

quired to circle the giant bowl four
consecutive times at 110 miles an

following prizes: First, IS, 900; second,
$500: third. $4,000; fourth, $4,000

tenth. $3.50. Every driver who enters
the race, whether he qualities or not,
will receive a guarantee of $500.
Preparations are being made by the
speedway officials to handle q crowd
of 60 900 spectators. The arena within
the track has been leveled and graded
since the last race to accommodate
approximately 10000 automobiles
from which their occupants may view
the race. A new roadway is being
constructed from the speedway prop.

Leading Woman Golfers.

Leading Woman Golfers.
The 10 leading women golfers for
1925. as selected by this writer. are
as follows.
Glenna Collett, Providence.
Mrs. Alexa Stirling Fraser. Toronto.
Edith Cummings. Chicago.
Louise Fordyce, Youngstown.
Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, Phil
adelphia.
Mary Browne, Los Angeles
Mrs. III. d. Sterrett, Hutchinson,
Kans.
Dorothy Klotz, Chicago.
Bernice Wall, Oshkosh, Wis.
Mrs. F. c. Let's, Chicago.
There is little difficulty in deter
mining the first four in this group,
as they are the outstanding woman
golfers of America, but those selected
in the next cluster are nearly on a
par, and the order of their ranking
is not so important as the fact that
they are in the first TO-"
Four Newcomers.
Six of these players found their
places in the writer's ranking last
year, the newcomers being Mrs.
Fraser, Mrs. Sterrett, Miss KlotZ and
Mrs. Let's. Those who dropped out
to make way for them were Marion
Hollins, Miriam Burns NOW Mrs.
George Horn, Mrs. Clarence Wander
beck and Audrey Faust.
There is no dispute of the award
of first place to Miss Collett. She
again proved herself the premier
woman golfer in America. Her per
formance in Florida, in England, in
France and in America during the
year were remarkable, and her amaz
| ing display in the final of the national
championship placed her even with
Joyce Wethered for the right to be
called the greatest woman golfer in
the world.
In that final match against Mrs
Fraser, Glenna shot a game that

leading professionals.
Miss Collett fairly cleaned up in the
Southern tournaments, went into the
final for the British title, and carried
back to the United States the French
championship. On her return she re.

the entire year.
Mrs. Fraser's Merit.
Mrs. fraser is entitled to second
place on her showing in the national
championship. She was the medal
winner, and came through several
hard matches to reach. the final. Con.

ing to fourth position this year. She
was one Of the few of her sex to score
in the low 70s during the year.
Mrs. Hurd is awarded fifth place
because of her exceptional work in the
early tournaments of the year in the
South, and in the minor tournaments
during the rest of the season.
Miss Brown. peculiarly, is again
placed sixth. Her game is still good
but shows little improvement. The
remaining four play almost an even
game and during the year returned
star performances on occasion.

In order to stimulate interest in a
membership drive the Members ALI

him in line for competition on the

The women's prize, a hardhead

with 100 yards of linen line for her
efforts. Mrs. Dickerson carried off
