ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 1.-The
third round in the women's ma
tional golf tournament got under
way today with Mrs. Dorothy
Campbell Hurd, Of Philadelphia, the
title holder, only spectator.
The deluge of rain which served
as hazard to the players in the
second nine holes of yesterday
play turned the Country Club
course into a sea of mud and with
threatening clouds overhead it was
expected the players would be
slowed up considerably again today.
Mrs. r. c. Let's. of Chicago, who
put the champion out of the rum
ming yesterday, was matched with
Miss Louise Fordyce. of Youngstown,
Ohio, who ran away from Miss
Helen Tllotson, of Toledo, winning
handily, six and five. The medal

Ottawa, faced Miss Mary X.
Browne, who fought the rain, and
Mrs. Miriam Burns Horn, jr., of
Chicago, to the eighteenth hole and
a one up decision.
Miss Glenna Collett, Providence,
r. l., a former title holder, became
a real favorite when she came
from behind to eliminate one Of

NO SOFT SPOTS
IN HILLTOP
SCHEDULE
Both Mt. ST. Mary's and Leb-
anon Valley Tougher
Than Expected

Geergetown's hope of going
through the present football cam
paign with a clean slate has been
jeopardized from an unlooked.for
quarter. Tough arguments, OF
course, are expected from Center,
Lahigh, the, MariuesyI BuckneH and
Detroit. But, in taking on Mt. St.
Mary'ss and Lebanon Valley, the
football department figured on two
soft spots in the schedule.
However, these two teams have
already demonstrated that they
possessAplenty of power. Ste Mary's
walloped Catholic University in it's
big game last fall and then started
off this campaign by srnothering the
strong Camp Meade eleven, which
packs enough punch to worry any
eleven in college circles.
Next, Lebanon Valley succumbed
last Saturday to Hugo Bezdek' s
great Penn State machine by only
two touchdowns, and after holding
tho Nittany Lions to a sc0reless tie
in the first half. More than that,
many have been outspoken in ex-
pressing the opinion that Lebanon
played rings around Bezdek S
charges and, with any sort of luck,
should have come out on the long
end of the count.
Lebanon scored a touchdown
shortly after play opened with a
sixty-five-yard dash through the
State machine, but was called back
for an offside infraction. Next,
when a tumble gave the Lions the
ball on Lebanon's 2-yard line, the
small college held the smashing
State offensive for four downs,
then kicked out OF danger.

numbers, cost the clubs much
money, take up time, and in re-
turn can offer nothing.
The Washington times., 1925-10-01

Behind the taboo lies another
story and in it is the real reason
for the stoppage. Three or four
public links players have worn out
their welcome and in so doing have
ieopardized the others. Conduct
that might be termed unethical has
reacted with the usual force.
Loose talk, failure to fully follow
the etiquette of the game, and the
practise of shooting high score.
to get nj a low flight has soured
the club members. Frequent with
drawals without warning, failure TO
play in the consolation matches,
and unspOrtsmanlike conduct by a
small group has cast reflections
on all.

Clubs May Employ Handicap
Rule to Bar Most Public
Links Club WieIders
By ROSS CONKLIN

Public links golfers seem TO be
directly in the line of fire of an
other swift kick in the Stats. This
time it is the private golf clubs
that are aiming their shafts into
the municipal club wielders, and
the shaft is ever so singing.
Unfavorable sentiment in most
of the golf clubs has been so
crystallized by the action of three
or four of the municipal players
that. all public links golfers may
be barred from most of the club
invitation tournaments next yeaC.
Heretofore the unattached players
have been received with open
arms.
Chevy Chase started the fire
works with a ukase this spring.
Golfers from other than Chevy
Chase We're required to have a
handicap of twelve strokes or less
before their entries were received.
Since the public links players have
no official handicap they were au-
tomatically barred. Even members
of such clubs as Columbia, Indian;
Spring, Washington, and Burning
free were refused admittance be-
cause they had high handicaps.
Now two other clubs have
: given indication that they viii
adopt the Chevy Chase principle.

mind to catch certain train or
