U. S. GOLFERS RETAIN
POSSESSION OF The.
FAMOUS WALKER CUP.
CBy Dispatch A. p. wire)

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, June a.
America retained possession of the
walker cup, emblematic of interna-
tional team supremacy in amateur
golf, by a fine cut victory on the links
on the Royal and Ancient Golf club to-.
day In the two days tourney in
which four two-ball foursomes and
eight individual matches We're played,
the Americans scored IL noints to
1-2 by the hard fighting British riv-
ais. The United States won three
foursomes yesterday and three singles
today. Victory came when George Won
Elm added half point TO the Amer
ican total by concluding his S6-hole
match all square with Maj. c. o. Hez-
let.
1t was the fourth consecutive Amer
lean victory in the Walker cup series
and their fifth in the international golf
contest, which began in 1921. Bobby
Jones led off by handling Cyril Tolley
a crushing defeat, IL and Il. Jess
Sweetser followed by defeating the
British player Holderness, 4 and 81,
while Little Watts Gum handed
Brownlow an artistic trimming, to g.
Then the tide began to turn and it
was Britain all the way through
Roger Wethered defeated Francis Oui-
met. and a; Harris defeated Jess
Guilford, and 1; Jameson trimmed
Captain Gardner, and 4, and Story
won from Roland Mackenzie, 2 and !.
With the score then to 5, George
Won Elm, Pacific Coast star, came
through with half point for the Uni
ted States team by halving the So
hole match with Major Hezlet and Civ
ing the American team a lead of IL
40 IL. The continued possession OF
the cup for the net two years was
really assured the Americans when
Watts Gum turned in his crashing
victory. over Brownlow not long past
mid-afternoon.
This gave the Americans six points
and insured the least tie for the
trophy. AS thaa rules provide that the
cup must be won, not merely tied 10:
by teams not holding the cup, the
Americans would have retained it and
taken it back to American shores the
same as they are preparing to do now
the match isgover with definite VIC
tory But none of Captain Gardner :
men nor the Officials of the United
states Golf association wanted that to
happen. and an actual win, if only by
a narrow margin, is the cause of great
satisfaction tonight in the American
