Waterbury Club Golf Play Ends TO-mOrrOw-GOss
 vs Lavigne

Two former club champions will oppose strong opponents to-day in semi-final match play at Water bury Country Club for places in the 36 hole finals for the club golf championship scheduled for to- morrow morning and afternoon. W. M. Bill" Goss, 1892 title-hold- CT met up with J. R. Lavigne this afternoon in one match while George B. oran, who copped the 1881 title had H. Merriman, Jr, as his opponent. Three of the four rivals had plenty of backing among club members as to the finals, Horan being the name that sold for most money in the club "pool' among the members.
 Looks Good
 Junior Merriman's 3 and 2 win over young Chan Goss, defending champion yesterday, brought him plenty of favor to win over Horan to-day, though the consistency of the later's game coupled with his 3 and 2 victory over capable Percy Warner was figured to bring him another shot at the title particular ly if Merriman's hard-hitting game is not holding the ball on a line.
 Bill Goss was generally favored to win from "Romey' Lavigne, though the latter has "hot'' days when he is unbeatable, turning in a neat 2 and victory over young T. P. Kellogg yesterday. Goss won from Goodrich T. Smith, by 8 and ? edge though the latter had a 79 to his credit.
