Locals Play Well

Nineteen members of the Willis
ton Golf Club visited the Wolf
Point club for a return meet last
Sunday and thoroughly enjoyed
day was spent on the local links.
Never before had such a throng of
club swingers and interested specta-
tors been seen on the Wolf Greek
hills. Forty-four players in all were
strung along the nine fairways at
one time.
Most Of the on-lookers remained
at tne Rome green to watch the start
and finish of the rounds. Quite a
few women and children were in
cluded in the visiting party and a
few of the women players from each
town played the course.
Nineteen players from each club
made up nine foursomes and a two
some and played nine holes in the
morning, as preliminary to give
the visitors opportunity to become
acquainted with the peculiarities of
the course, and 18 holes in the af
ternoon as a real test of skill, in the
second inter-city competition. There
were more local than visiting play
ers on the ground and few of the
locals who played in the morning
gave place to others in the afternoon.
A few of Wolf Points best players,
]. L. Davey, Joe Wigtil
and F. H. Livingston, were detained
and unable to enter the lists.
Close Result
The result, considered on a total
score basis, was remarkably close. As |
it appeared from the totals arrived |
at soon after play was finished the
locals had slight margin in their
favor, both morning and afternoon,
and the result was so announced.
But afterward errors were discover
ed, caused partly from confused
of the names on the
Dig score card and partly by an er
,or in addition. This is very much
,egretted by the local club and as
soon as the errors were discovered
he revised figures were wired to
Williston. The result as shown by
he scores below give the honors of
he day to Williston by "a single
troke in the afternoon rounds and
a strokes in the morning round The
Nilliston team included quite num-
,er of players Of more than ordinary
kill, some with the advantage of
everal years experience. The
,rOken contour of Wolf Point links,
decided contrast to Williston links,
,othered them very little. Quite
ddly they made a slightly better
verage in their first round than in
he two played in the afternoon.
Kruckeberg and Covell Lead
Frank Covell of the Havre club
Of Wolf Point, came down
o try Wolf Points new course. He
layed with the locals and gave an
xcellent account of himself. Ben
of Williston was the star
f the day turning in the lowest to-
al for the 27 holes, 1913. Frank
,ovell made the best 9-hole score,
9, and the second best total for the

rand 9-hole average for all players t
