Defending Champion
Continues as Favorite
In Trans-Miss Golf
BY The Associated Press

PHOENIX, Ariz., April IT,
Gallery interest was split in foul
directions today as eight young
women from six States headed
into the quarterf1nals of match
play in the Trans-Mississippi
golf tournament.
Taking them as they appear
on the pairing sheet, the pro-
gram read:
Mary Lena Faulk, Thomasville,
Ca, versus Arlene Brooks, Pasa-
dena, Calf.
Mrs. Lyle Bowman, Richmond
Calf, versus Lesbia Lobo, Sar
Antonio, Tex.
Edean Anderson, Helena
Mont, versus Mrs. Marjorie
Lindsay McMillen, Milwaukee
Wis.
Mary Ann Downey, Baltimore
versus Pat Garner, Midland
Tex.
Mrs. Bowman, the defending
champion. who advanced yes
terday with a 2-and-1 victory
over Gloria Armstrong, Oakland,
Calf, remains the tournament
favorite.
Miss Faux was the victor in
the big match yesterday. She
sank a 15-foot putt for birdie
to end a duel with the Trans
Mississippi medalist and Cali
fornia champion, Barbara Ro-
mack of Sacramento. 1t was
the Georgian's finesse on the
greens-she had IL one-putt
greens-that earned the decision
over a girl who otherwise outshot
her.
Miss Downey, the 1851 cham
pion, overcame stubborn resist
ence from Mrs. Frank Donald
son, Anaheim, Calf, winning 2
up on the 18th hole. She faced
even tougher competition today
The tournament Board of Di-
rectors held a meeting yesterday
at which they elected officers and
decided that next years tourney
will be held at Thomasville, Ga,
Among those elected to the
Board of Directors were Mrs.

If we ask the name OF the f1rSt
successful English settlement in
North America, the answer is
jamestown in Virginia. John
Smith, and more than 100 other
English folk, started a colony and
it became successful.
We should remember. however,
that jamestown failed to live.
It suffered from Indian attacks
and from fires, and the residents
left the place 81 years after the
village was started. Most of them
moved to Williamsburg, Va,
which still exists, and which is
now a kind of Showplace. Some
of the buildings in Williams
burg are like those Of colonial
times.
At Jamestown I saw some Of
the tools and other objects which
are believed to date back to the
time of the early settlers. I also
saw a reconstructed church,
which is very much like one
which was built at jamestown.

The bidding:

! diam'd Dble. 2hearts Pass
{ hearts All Pass
She decided to bid two hearts,
which in this situation (after a
takeout double) was forcing for
one round and one round only.
There was danger of the op-
ponents finding a good playing
spot in spades and the jump to
two hearts would probably keep
Mr.. Champion out of the bid
ding.
Mrs. Keen planned to pass if
Mr.. Dale bid three diamonds. If
he bid two no-trump, two spades
1unlikely) or three clubs, she
would bid three diamonds and
leave it up to him.
AS it happened, Mr.. Dale liked
hearts. His jump to four with
Just two hearts looks a little odd,
but he knew his partners hand
was distributional, else she prob
ably would have redoubled.
{ Her heart bid might even be
psychic, but if so she would
probably have a magnificent
diamond fit. She could then go
to five diamonds over the four
heart bid. In any case, Mr.. Dale,
too, feared the enemy had a good
spade fit and he was determined
to make it as hard as possible
for them to get into the auction.
His plan was successful as Mr..
Abel was unwilling to come in at
the four level.
D The only lead to defeat the
contract was a club but Mr..
Champion had no way to know
that. He led the four of spades
and all the defenders could get
was two spades and one club.
One of Mrs. Keen'S clubs went
off on dummy's fourth diamond.
It's impossible to say whether
Mr.. Abel would have found the
four-spade spot on less-aggres-
sive bidding by his opponents.
Certainly he would have been
much more likely to find it. He
would have been down only one
trick at that bid, losing three
diamonds and heart. He could
have entered Mr.. Champions
hand on a third round of spades
and successfully f1nessed clubs.
