The Semi-Finals The semi-finals played on Friday brought the upper divisions back to Number Two where Armsrong and Styles both came very near to defeat in their respective matches. -Armstrong plaving against Lou Hamilton, found himself 1 down at the turn and still 1 down at the 12th, thanks largely to a couple of birdies gathered in by Ham ilton on the way out. The Oakmont golfer won the 14th, squaring the match and the fifteenth was halved in threes. At the 16th, Armstrong laid Hamilton a dead stymie and made himself 1 up for the first time in the round. Hamilton had a fine 3 on the 17th but it wasn't good enough, Armstrong running down a 20 footer for a 2 and taking the match by 2 up anl 1 to play. The winner 's round was 40-35, 75. Styles, playing against T. J. Moran, was 2 up at the turn and then lost four of the next five holes, which left him 2 down at the fourteenth. Styles then took the next two holes, which squared the match at the sixteenth. Driving for the 17th, both players went into a trap but Styles' ball kept right on going and rolled out again while Moran 's waited for assistance. Styles made the hole in 3 and started for the 18th, 1 up. Here again, both went into a trap, on their second shots, this time, and again Styles remarkable luck stood him in good stead and his ball rolled out again leaving him in a good position for an easy win oft he hole, Styles taking the match by 2 up. The longest match of the day and the tournament was staged in the 9th six teen, where H. H. Rackham of Detroit, won against W. J. Speers of Fall River at the 22nd hole. The Play-Off for the Medal The play-off for the medal took place on Fridy afternoon, after the semi-fin als were disposed of and proved a rath er disappointing affair, Styles winning with an 81, on Number Three, to an 87 for Armstrong. Each had gone over the course in 73, the day before. The play off was originally scheduled to go 36 holes but Armstrong conceded the medal' to Styles at the 18th. The summary of the senii-finaly is: Saturday 's Finals Saturday's Finals were played on the Number Two course, in all divisions. The contest for the president's trophy wag played more or less in the rain ar.j was remarkable chiefly for three li relies made by Armstrong, under difficult con ditions and for some brilliant recoveries on the part of Styles which allowed him to halve holes that had appeared to be hopelessly lost. Armstrong started out by taking the first hole, under par, and made himself 2 up at the second, but Styles came right back with wias at the third and fourth. These were, how ever, the only holes won by Styles dur ing the entire round. Armstrong won the fifth with a birdie and made himself 2 up at the turn by taking the ninth. He then won the tenth and thirteenth and brought the match to an untimely end with a 15 foot putt for a birdie 4 at the fourteenth. The bye holes were not played out. Armstrong took 40 for the outward journey and Styles, who was putting poorly all through the round, reached the turn in 43. Donald Parson won in the consolation section of the first sixteen, defeating AY. E. Truesdall, by 5 and 3. The Governor's trophy, in the .second sixteen, went to Major A. Elliot Ranney at the 19th hole of an uphill contest against N.. E. Sprague. S. O.
