After tieing G. 1. Dodge, profess
sional from Dark Harbor, DR..
r. C. Tyson, amateur Of the Au-
gusta Country Club, won the Maine
State Open Golf Championship Fri
day afternoon by defeating Dodge
two strokes in an extra nine-hole
playoff.
DIR. Tyson's victory was a delight
full surprise to Augusta Country
Club members as he had been off
his game all season and was de-
feated in the first round of the club
championship last month. From
the start of this tournament, how
ever, Tyson showed he was back in
form and throughout the two days
play he shot consistent golf, Win
ming a well deserved victory. Iy-
sons win offset the disappointment
of the Augusta Club members in the
failure of Frank Gilman. Augusta
pro, to lead the field of profession
ais and maintain possession of the
championship medal which he has
won@or the past three years.
At the end of the morning round
of Fridays play Dodge led the field
with a 22S, closely pressed by DR..
Tyson and Ray Ouimet with 229
each and ~ E. L. Ryall with a
233. At the start of the last Is
holes in the afternoon Tyson con-
tinued his steady shooting and at the
end of the first six holes was two
strokes UP on Dodge, three strokes
up on Ouimet and six up on Ryall.
Elves on the seventh and eight how
ever left him one down to Dodge at
the end of the first nine.
Coming to the fifteenth the race
was clearly between Tyson and
Dodge, although the latter was then
three strokes up on Tyson. But on
the fifteenth green the local amateur
sank a 30 foot put for birdie two
while Dodge drove out of bounds,
dropped his second in the ditch at
the left of the green and wound up
with six for par three hole. Ty-
son was now one stroke ahead but
took a five on the 10th to a four for
Dodge, making it even again.
Tyson's pitch to the seventeenth
fell to the left of the green in the
rough but q beautiful short pitch to
the green enabled him to putt In
for a three and halve the hole with
Dodge. After long drive on the
18th Tyson pulled his iron shot to
the left on the edge of trap and
short of the green. His next was
short also and the best he could do
was a par five for the hole. Dodge
encountered trouble too, his drive
hitting a tree at the left of the fair ,

way and dropping in the edge Of the
rough. His second was short of the
green and his third left him about
an eight foot putt for a four and
victory, but he putted short of the
hole and took five to halve with
Tyson.
After halving the first hole of the
extra nine-hole playoff with five,
Tyson went into a one stroke lead
on the second with four to Dodge's
FIVE. On the third after his drive
found a shallow sand pit at the left
of the fairway, Dodge made re-
markable shot, pitching out of the
sand onto the green and halving the
hole with a four.
On the fourth Dodge went into a
one stroke lead by getting a birdie
four while Tyson after hooking his
second into the rough which left him
with a bad lie, had to take a SIX.
But on the next hole Tyson recovered
his one stroke lead by taking par
four after a drive out of bounds and
a missed putt had forced Dodge to
take six.
On the sixth a par three to a four,
put Tyson two UP. The seventh was
halved in par tours. On the eighth
Tyson f1ubbed his pitch shot into the
rough, giving Dodge an opening to
tie the score should he get a good
shot to the green for a possible two.
Dodge, however, pitched to the left
of the green. in the rough. Tyson
then made a beautiful running pitch
to the green which left him with a
good chance for a three. This SEEM
ed to un-nerve Dodge for his short
pitch was too strong running well
across the green. In an effort to
get a three he ran his putt by the
cup and failed to sink it coming
back, taking a five. Tyson just
missed his three but his fourth put
him three up, practically assuring
him of victory, which he won on
the next hole when he got a six to
Dodge's five.
In the amateur division III. Kicker,
Jr., was runner-up to DR.. Tyson for
low gross with a $40, to the Doctors
306. S. S. Webster had the low net
with a 2S3. J. P. Briscoe was rum
ner-up with 285. Cash prizes for

in the auditorium at the Library of
Congress last night, when Elizabeth
Sprague Coolidge, donor Of the charm
ing music auditorium, herself partici-
pated in the Colbert. BY doing this
Mrs. Coolidge demonstrated several
admirable and significant facts. First,
that in the true spirit Of the original
chamber music performances, 1t was
the custom for the intimate members
Of a. family circle and their friends to
actively perform as musicianly anna
teurs in the production Of beautiful
music for their. own enjoyment In the
informality Of chamber. That Is
what chamber music means. Second
ly, and equally important, was the
fact that by taking part in one OF the
many fascinating programs that she
has presented to the public in this
auditorium, Mrs. Coolidge literally
"rolled up her sleeves and went to II"
showing the true democracy not of
Lady Bountiful who gives and then
sits aloof, but Of a sincere musician
keenly interested in the development
American people, q development that
can only be achieved by actual work
with and in music, not by merely
hearing it performed by genius musi-
clans on concert stages. She set
fine example in this way. This con-
cert should be listed in the history
of American music as a definite cor
ner stone for the one way of estab-
fishing real Emusic in the home" not
canned" music, but the music that
comes from unprofessional but appre'
ciative fingers.
The work chosen for this debut of
Mrs. Coolidge in local circles as a
music performer was Johannes
Brahms Quartet in A, Opus rs"
Brahms Is essentially an example OF
the composers who wrote most elo-
quently for chamber production. Mrs.
Coolidge played the piano part. Wolfe
Wolfinsohn played the violin. Herman
Rorodkin played the viola and En-
meran Stoeber played the cello. To
one listener, at least, this earnest per-
formance of the quartet brought out
more clearly and with much more sig-
nif1cance the true values of the beauty
that is undying In Brahms and so
typical Of that composer than more
professional and "individuadized" pro-
OuCClOn. Inc SeCOHu IuOFcHcHI was
especially lovely.
The novelty Of the program was
Ernest Bloch's impressionistic sketch

these the North" seemed especially
vivid in description: the alpine"
caught the elf1n quality that seems to
be lurking on the edges Of toy like
villages perched high in those noun
tains, and "Tongataboo," with its
more obvious, Oriental strains, was
the most colorful Of the three. 1t Is
an intriguing piece Of music, this
suite.
The Bloch number and also Haydn's
gay. lifting Quartet in F, Opus II.

chamber-music presentation. The
concert this afternoon includes works
by Beethoven, Mozart and jacob.
