u. 5. Champion Adds
1.-Two More Victims
In Victory Streak
by the As.oeiatsd Press

GULLANE, Scotland, June Ii
Babe Didrikson Zaharias of Denver,
Americas leading woman golfer,
clubbed her way into the final OF
| the British Women's Amateur
championship today by defeating
the British favorite, Jean Donald OF
Scotland, 7 and S.
Earlier today Mrs. Zaharias had
eliminated Frances Stephens, 8 and
2, in the quarterfinal round.
Mrs. Zaharias' opponent in to-
morrow's 36-hole final will be Miss
Jacqueline Gordon of London, the
Middlesex champion, who beat Mrs.
Jessie Valentine, former British
amateur champion, and 2, in the
other semifinai match.
| Babe Increases Lead.
Leading four up at the turn after
going out In "a, one under the un-
Official mems par for the course,
Mrs. Zaharias closed out her match
with Miss Donald on the 18th green
when she sank her putt for par 3
and Miss Donald, the Scottish cham
fpion, picked UP her ball.
It was the third hole in a row
Babe had won. She shot pair
of fours on the 18th and 18th holes,
getting a birdie on the latter, to
go 6 up. ..
Mrs. Zaharias has not had to go
beyond the 18th hole in five matches
since the tournament began Mon
day.
| A crowd estimated by British golf
writer's as being the largest for a
British tournament this year turned
out to watch the semifnal match.
Spectators surrounded the entire
fatrway and the green on the first
hole when the American women's
champion and her opponent drove
of. Mrs. zaharias' morning match
against Miss Stephens attracted
about 1900 spectators. Admission
was free, which appealed to the
Scots.
Holes 35-Foot Putt.
The Babe started rather slowly
| in her battle with Miss Donald
but once she got started there was
no stopping her. After halving the
first two holes, she shot a birdie 4
on the third hole for a win. She
then proceeded to roll a 35-foot
approach putt / foot from the pin
and sank the putt to increase her
margin 2 up.
The American hoIed a 35-foot
putt for the birdie on the sixth
that put her 3 up. Miss Donald
after playing 3, still was 10 feet
away and picked up.
The seventh hole was halved In
S. when Mrs. Zaharias required ;
puts, but she increased her lea6
to four holes on the eighth with the
help of a nice chip to within 6 feet
of the pin.
Mrs. Zaharias' match with Miss
Stephens was a thriller all the way
Pours on Pressure.
Finishing the first nine all even
Mrs. Zaharias poured on the pres
sure on the incoming nine, taking
the 18th, with a 4 to her opponents
5. On the 14th she went up, when
Miss Stephens two-putted.
| The Babe got q birdie 4 on the
18th to win that one and then halveo
the 10th to clinch the match.
Subpar Golf on First Nine.
Mrs. Zaharias and Miss Stephens
both played subpar women's golt
for the first nine, the Babe in 2
under IS and Miss Stephens IN l.
under SO. This compares to mems
par OF IS for the same nine.
