THE MATCH ROUNDS Hid April Tournament Brought Down to the Semi Finals Hckl Odd Mow Offered on a Tin Whistler Winning- the Tournament The qualifying round of the Mid April tournament, reported elsewhere in this issue, -was played on Tuesday, and Wed nesday saw the playing of the first match round, in all divisions, on Number Two. The chief surprise of the day was the defeat of F. C. Newton, runner up in the North and South, who fell before the onslaught of Tom Morrison and lost by 1 down. Morrison was 1 down at the turn but squared the match at the tenth and, playing .better and better all the time, walked off with the victory at the home green. Another unexpected result was II. V. Seggerman 's 2 and 1 defeat, at the hands of C. F. Watson, Jr., the medal list. Most of us, I think, had a sort of hazy impression that in winning the medal Watson had gathered in about all the glory that was coming to him for the first two days. Seggerman has his ups and downs in the course of a round, as a rule, but it calls for darn good golf, at any time, to beat him 2 and 1. Ned Beall and E. L. Scofield provid ed the chief fireworks of the day. Both went out in 40 and, came home within the same limit. The North and South champion was 1 down at the turn, and after squaring the match fell back again and was still 1 down, going to the eigh teenth. Both were in the immediate vi cinity of the green in 3 but. Scofield took three more and Beall didn't and there we all were, on our way to the nineteenth tee. The first extra hole was halved in fine style, both going down under par, and then Beall appar ently threw the match away by hooking his drive for the twentieth into a rye field out Carthage way. He came mighty near taking the count, on that ball, but found it in 4.59 flat and caused it to emerge from the jungle in a math ematically perfect trajectory. In other words, he got out fine. And then he got on with his next shot, went down in 4, and took the hole and the match. Becker and Phillips had an extra hole match of their own. Becker was 3 down, going to the fifteenth, but by dint of playing the last four holes in 2, 5, 3, 5 for a 40, in, he squared the match where it counts most only to lose it at the nineteenth, by way of an anti-clmax. The other survivors in the first six teen were T. W. D. Turner, of Wana kah, F. S. Danforth, L. D. Pierce, who came into line to play Beall the next day, and Pop Fownes, Avho lumbered around to the fourteenth and then quit, 6 up, on Nat Hurd. An extra hole match was played in the second sixteen, where M. B. John- i 1 1 LUnA.mnn Sr of fVlfi son. was srymieu uy otcim", - nineteenth, and another one was played in the fourth sixteen between Paul Blatchford, of Oak Park, and E. W.

THE SECOND ROUND played on Number Two, on Thursday, produced another surprise, L. D. Pierce eliminating Ned Beall by 2 up and 1 to play. Both went out in 39 and were even at the turn but, coming in, Pierce had the better of things and was 2 up at the sixteenth, the match ending with the halving of the seventeenth. Frank S. Danforth went out in 37, against C. F. Watson, Jr, playing tha last three in 2, 3, 3, and reaching the turn 4 up. Danforth then took the next two, and was 6 up at the twelfth. Af ter that, the medallist got busy, in h;s turn, and reduced his disadvantage to 2 down at the sixteenth. Watson missed a putt for a 3 on the seventeenth and Danforth, who had driven into a trap, sank a long one for a halve and the match was over. Tom Morrison defeated T. W. D.
