After hours of intermittent she'll
ling on Surveys Rolling Terrain,
America and England finished
In a bloodless draw at the end
Of the mornings play in the
international women's golf
matches today. The foursomes
ending with two victories each
and a tie in the fifth match.
The British scored first at the
expense of Americas queen OF the
links, Glenna Collett. Glenna.
paired with Marion Bennett, New
Britain, Conn.,, went down to de-
feat before the No. British team
of Molly Gourlay and Enid Will
son, and 8, in the first OF the
foursomes, but Maureen Orcutt,
Englewood, N. j., and Mrs. H. A:
Martelle, Hartford, Conn, defeated
the Misses D. Pearson and Phyllis
Lobbett impressively by a score OF
Z and s.
The defeat of the Collett- Ben
nett team, stunning blow at the
outset, thus was more than bal
anced by the later returns. Miss
Collett clearly was off her usual
pace and she received little as
sistance from Miss Bennett, who
was wild and found many of the
traps with which this course is
literally pock-marked. The Amer
leans were able to win only the
eighth hole during the outgoing
journey and reached the turn 2
down. They had scored a COM
bined AZ here against the Al Of
the British pair.
The latter we're off at the
tenth, which they lost with
6 against a buZZard 5, but
won the next two when the
Americans took a respective
and 7. This just about ended
the match.
The Americans. only com
paratively few hours off the boat,
were remarkably steady consider
ing their lack of practice. This
latter was evidenced only in their
inability to putt on the fast,
tricky greens. The cards:

The series remained in status
quo when the foursome involving
Virginia Van VIE, Chicago, and
Peggy Wattles, Buffalo. against
Mrs. j. B. Watson and Miss Jean
McCulloch ended all square. The
former were dormie going to the
eighteenth but the British won
) the home hole to square the
match.
} The Van Wie-Wattles and Wat
eon-McCulloch match was by far
the best played of the day. the
Americans reaching the turn in
a par of 36 against a 38 for the
British. At that, the Americans
had to win the seventh to bring
the match to the turn all square.
The feature of this nine was the
birdie 2 of the Americans at the
fourth hole, Miss Van VIE sink
! ing 25-foot putt.
J She needed it, too, to
square the match at this
point, the British having won
the third with a birdie 3,
after the first two holes had
been halved in par SIS.
Both teams went rapidly to the
bad after the turn. the Americans
taking an 3 on the para twelfth.
They regained the lead at the
| thirteenth, however, with a par 3
but the match was squared again
when they took buzzard at
:. the fourteenth. Then they got a
birdie 3 to win the seventeenth
and become dormie, only to lose
the eighteenth with a 6 against
. q buzZard 5, the match ending all
square. The cards:

ion by l up in hot finish with

aggregate of 88 for the full lS
holes, having one stroke more
than its rival team. The long hit
ting of Miss Hicks. brought gaSpS
