his nearest rival, Franklin Gates, of were repeatedly in the woods and in the N. A, Rose, Longwood
Moore County, captured the Medal in bunkers. The issue of the match, how- R. L. Baggs, New York
the Qualifying Round of the Mid-April ever, was never in doubt; it was Web- Jas. Plummer, Ardsley
Tournament; but it was left for Harold er's game all the way and the gallery A. C. Judd, Waterbury
Weber, the Toledo golfer, who gave was relieved when it was settled in F. Baggs, New York
Ouimet his best match in the semi-finals Weber's favor on the 14th green. C. Meek Norfolk
of the JNortn ana outn, to run away The summary follows:
with the President's Trophy by a score QUALIFYING ROUND
of 4 and 6 over Albert J. Mendes of Si- .
wanoy. Gates, however, has the Au- F. H. Gates, Moore County
tunin Tournament to his credit, and it C. B. Fownes, Oakmont
would be too much for one man to win J. D. Chapman, Greenwich
both. II. Weber, Sylvania
The field that started out on the G. P. Elkins, Oakmont
morning of the 13th Was large and W. T. Stall, Brockton
classy. There were over ninety players T. Morrison, Oakmont
on hand, and when the opening struggle Donald Parson, Youngstown,
was over and the strokes were all A. J. Mendes, Siwanoy
counted, it was found that eighty men C. A. Taylor, La Porte
had qualified for match play in five-'di- J. D. Armstrong, Buffalo
visions of sixteen. The lowest score, was F. S. Danforth, North Fork
that of the aforesaid Gates, who made C. L. Becker, Ekwanok
the outward trip in 36 and came home R. C. Shannon, Brockport
in 38, with a total of 74. This was E. L. Scofield, Woodway
four less thafi the 'record of C. B. A. T. Roberts, Royal St. George's
Fownes, of Oakmont, who went out in H. C. Fownes, Oakmont
39 and came home in 39, for a total B. Preston, Westbrook
of 78. No one else broke under 80. N. S. Hurd, Pittsburgh
The medalist's card included one eagle, G. T. Dunlap, Pinehurst
one birdie, eleven pars, four 1 over par, W. R. Peters, Santiago
and one 2 over par. E. M. Prencil, Oak Park,
The first match round in the first six- J. F. Holland, Indian Hill
teen brought together Gates and Don- G. A. Magoon, Oakmont -aid
Parson, of Youngstown, and the 0. B. Garrott, Greenwich
medalist barely escaped a beating. His T. A. Cheatham, Pittsburgh
opponent held him on even terms up to II. C. Keith, Brockton
the 18th, and took him two extra holes H. C. Philbrook, Brae Burn
for a decision. Parson missed an eight H. A. Wilson, Knowlwood
foot putt for a win at the nineteenth; R. Lounsbery, Sleepy Hollow
Gates clinched the match on the 20th E. H. Wiswell, Montclair
with a par four. Both had cards of B. F. Briggs, Ardsley
79. J. E. Mariner, Milwaukee
In the second round Gates and J. D. John Clinger, Baltusrol
Chapman locked horns, and the medalist P. S. MacLaughlin, Ardsley
succumbed in what proved to be the best M. B. Johnson, Cleveland
match of the day. Gates came to the J. V. Hurd, Pittsburgh
18th with a 4 for a 74, but was one C. R. Corwin, Brae Burn
down at that stage and lost the match G. A. Fuller, Runaway Brook
in halving the last hole.' Weber, who Jas. Barber, Englewood
had disposed of C. B. Fownes, Oakmont, C Duncan, Fox Hills
in the first round, eliminated F. S. Dan- I. Hellman, Fairview
forth in the second round. Danforth J. H. Turner, Fox Hills
hastened his own defeat by knocking P. B. O'Brien, Detroit
Weber's ball into the cup at the six- J. D. Rumsey, Pinehurst
teenth hole. Surviving for the semi- H. A. Wrenn, Exmoor
finals, together with Chapman and J. C. Bowen, Buffalo
Weber, were Albert Mendes, who de- B. V. Covert, Lockport
feated R. C. Shannon, 2 up, and E. L. A. M.' Morris, Ardsley
Scofield, who beat C. A. Taylor, of La Fred Cody, Dunwoodie
Porte, Ind., 2 and 1. P. w- Thomson, Riverside
The semi-finals produced two very A. S. Higgins, St. Andrews
good matches, especially the one between W. B. Merrill, Brookline ,
Chapman and Mendes. Mendes was the C F. Conn, Merion
victor, one up, and owed his victory Henry Patton, Runaway Brook
to a stymie on one hole and two good H. E. Porter, Siwanoy
putts on other holes, which he ran down Fred Hawthorne, New York
from off the green. Chapman played T. H. Hogsett, Mayfield
his last four holes in par figures and H. B. Swoope, Overbrook
was denied the satisfaction of winning F. W. Filoon, Thorny Lea
a single one of them. G. H. Lay, Wanango
Weber played brilliantly against Sco- F. B. Howland, Titusville
field, going out in 33. J. D- Arnold, Wollaston
The match between Mendes and L. R. Gimbel, Philmont
Weber in the finals was not very in- E. W. Bush, Southern Pines,
testing. Mendes demonstrated that he H. W. Ormsbee, Pinehurst
will never make a successful match J. T. Newton, Pinehurst
Player. He is too nervous and im- W. B. Stewart, Deleware
Patient. Weber allowed him only two F. F. Sivyer, Milwaukee
