The second game of the series will be played October [ and total goals will decide the victory.
 Although they were slower and more inclined to respect their op- ponents' shins than masculine play CTS, the women staged fast enough Their principal faults were seen in stroking and in a tendency to over ride the ball.
 The Westehester women had u great advantage over their Canadian opponents in their mounts. The Canadian horses after a long rail journey were not in good playing condition. The Americans also dis played a slight superiority in strok- ing and team work.
 Outstanding among the eight play CTS was Mrs. Violet May. No 5 on the Calgary team. On the defense s..e was tower of strength. and in the closing periods she got the Canadian attack working smoothly around her and scored both of their goals.
 Mrs. James Hewlett, Westchester No. 3. was the high scorer for the Americans with four of the five goals. The other came from the mallet of Mary Leary. captain and back.
 The lineup for the winners was No. l, Becky Lanier; No. 7, Sally Lanier; No. ,, Mrs. James Hewlett: back, Mary Leary. The Calgary team lined up with Dorothy Hunt Hogan. No. 1: Bunn Dedney, No. 2; Violet May, No. 3 and Mary Atkins, back.

QUARTER FINALS
 IN WOMEN'S PLAY.
Hopeful Young Golfers Oppose
 Former Champions Today

Hot Springs, Va, Sept. 27.-R- A hopeful young golfer was opposed by a former champion today in each of the quarter final matches Of the Woman's National Golf tournament.
 Heading the top bracket. Miss Maureen Orcutt. Englewood. N. J.. links queen, was matched against Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Philadelphia. a three times Amer ican champion as we'll as a former holder of the British and Canadian titles. Miss Orcutt's brilliant game found worthy competition in the de- termined style Of play that makes Mrs. Hurd dangerous contender until the last hole.
 Miss Marion Rollins, New York. found her way to second cham- pionship blocked by a smiling young girl in white. Miss Virginia Van Vie. of Chicago. steady player as we'll as great shot maker. Battling against heavy odds in her second round match yesterday with Edith Quier of Reading. Pa, Miss Van Vie squared the match at the 18th and called on her reserve strength for an eagle three at the 18th hole to overcome her opponents birdie and win. one up.
 Canada. represented by vivacious little blonde. Miss Roa Virtue, of Montreal. was considered far from 1,,A Al %h, tn,,ruo n ,,o Anf oIthnnUh Miss Virtue was paired with a for mer champion In Mrs. George H. Stetson, of Philadelphia.
 Shots indicative of fine golfer have characterized the play of the little Canadian girl, while Mrs. stetson's play is similar to that Of Mrs. Hurd. extremely accurate and steady. although not of sensational character.
 The final match to leave the tee brought Miss Glenna Coilett, one of the longest hitters in, the game. against Miss Virginia Wilson. Of Chicago. holder of the Canadian championship The Providence girl overwhelmed Mrs. ]. s. Disston Of Philadelphia in the second round without giving her hole. while Miss Wilson was turning back the Cali fornta champion, Mrs. c. H. Lifur. Of Culver City.
 The gallery. in many respects like the baseball fan who calls for home runs on all occasions, found players  Vie andA1iss CoAett, who can match distance with most men and skill with far greater percentage. Three putt greens, bad approaches and off directions shots. however. had ai- ready eliminated several of the long shot-makers and the accurate deter mined style of the less powerful players gave 10 the quarter finals a nerve tingling tenseness.

BASEBALL TEAMS
 READY FOR GAME
kensin9ton Looking Forward to
 Another Win Over Falcons

kensington, by virtue of it's win over the Falcon baseball team in the first game Of the city title series last Sunday. is being granted an edge over the Falcons in the second game which will be played in kenslngton this coming Sunday. However, it is an edge because of the victory more than of the rela- tive strength of both teams.
 The interest of the fans centers, not in the teams as orga lizat,ons. but in the work of the pitchers. Last Sunday with Coke" Woodman serving them up for kensington and Nichols working for the Falcons. one of the best pitchers battles in ages was seen.
 Woodman. without much doubt, will be used by kcrsington again this coming Sunday. Whether the Falcons will use Nichols or will turn to their "lucky starr. Atwood. is question that will be decided only when the teams are on the field. Whichever pair does the work. assures the fans of another battle like that of last Sunday. if such q thing is possible.
 The rest of the teams measure up evenly. man for man. There was little difference, either in the field ing or the hitting last Sunday. TO the nonpartisan spectator. only q break" when McCleary dropped a ball thrown to catch a runner at second gave Kensington it's one chance to score. The same two teams will be at it again. It is doubtful which will win.
 Managers Cabay and Moore both express confidence. The former claims premature victory for his team while the latter says that kensington will take three straight. Neither is paying any attention to the "Indian Sign" story that is be- ing banded about.
 will be played at the Percival avenue grounds in kensington on the Cat-hole road past the Ameri- can Paper Goods plant. This is the home field of the Kensineton team and bus service will be fur nished from Pratt's Corner to the field for visiting fans The game will start promptly at 3 o'clock.

NU1MEGS DISPLAY PEP IN PRACTICE
Football Team Getting in Shape
 for Bridgeport Attack

Following a stiff workout at Will low Brook park last night, the Nut meg A. c. football team is rounding into excellent shape for a hard bat tle with the All-Bridgeport team next Sunday afternoon. This will be the second game of the season for the locals.
 The Bridgeport team is reported to be stronger hy great margin than the Stonewalls eof Holyoke, whom the locals defeated ' to 0 last Sunday. Composed of some of the best gridiron talent in Bridgeport, the team is coming to this city con- tident that it can hand the locals their first defeat.
 On the squad is one player who will be well remembered by the fans who attended the All-New Britain Bridgeport game in the Park City last year. Then about 800 football rooters from this city at tended the game there and they were impressed with the work of Eross. halfback. Eross, time after time made appreciable gains through New Britain's defense and he proved to be the best threat the Bridgeport team had.
 The Bridgeport line will probably be augmented by the addition of Ed Ticky, one of the best football play CTS in Bridgeport. Ticky has an out fit of his own in the Park City, but he has signified his intention of playing here with the Bridgeport team Sunday. He will be greeted profusely by New Britain fans for more reasons than one.
 The contest Sunday afternoon will start promptly at e:15 o'clock, and Harry Ginsburg. Dave Mahoney and Nickerson will be the officials.

(By Jtgger)

It took Clarence Manning 20 holes of golf to conquer his brother Dave yesterday afternoon for the honor of playing in the finala of the Shut tie Meadow championship. Tied at the 18th and 18th holes. Clarence won the goth with his butter when Dave failed to sink a five foot putt to halve the hole.
 This was the second time that the Manning sbrothers have met in the championship rounds. Three years ago they were pitted against each other in the finals and then 1t took an extra hole for Clarence to win the decision. Yesterday Dave palyed the best match of his career making eight pars and three birdies. It took his brother II pars and a birdie on the 20 holes to beat him.
 In the club rating Clarence is six handicap man and Dave plays with an allowance of l ? strokes This being a scratch affair the handicaps did not figure in the results but 1t is a go1fing achievement for d twelve" man to play a six man even for 19 holes, especially when that player scores 75 for the regula- ton round.
 That is what Dave did yesterday and he was applpuded by the gal lery for his skill and gameness. No one was more pleased at Dave's game than Clarence. It wes tough match for either to lose. But fate and putt made Clarence and not the finals.
