Aberdeen THE Country Club 's tournament sea son opened on Nov. 10th, with the playing of the qualifying round in the annual Carolina Tournament. Instituted five years ago as a local affair, the Caro lina event has now attained the propor tions and importance of a regulation tournament and attracted this year a lield of fifty contestants hailing from all parts of the United. States, Canada and Youngstown. E. L. Scofield, late of Stamford, Conn., and now a member of the rapidly in creasing all-the-year-round group of Pine hurst cottage residents, won the qualify ing medal easily enough with a round of 82 which would have been better if he had not elected to indulge in a lament able 8 in the course of the journey over the championship course. Wimberly Bowman, the young Aber deen expert, also had some hard luck on the trip but finished comfortably in second place with an 85, three strokes behind the medallist. Howard G. Phillips, the eventual win ner of the tournament, tied for thirl place, at 87, with H. Bradford Lewis, George M. Howard and Charton L. Beck er, and these four were followed by young Joe Hotchkiss, who went out in 40 but took 48 to come home for an 88. H. J. Blue of Aberdeen, who finished in 89, completed the First Eight. Five Eights qualified for match play. The only surprise of the first match round was the defeat of young Bowman at the hands of C. L. Becker by the wide margin of 4 up and 3 to play. Scofield, the medal... st, disposed of G. M. Howard, 7 and 6. Hotchkiss and Phillips camo through to the semi-finals at the re spective expense of H. J. Blue and Brad ford Lewis. Scofield was a strong favorite for the final honors but was overtaken in the semi-finals by the jinx that is popularly supposed to dog the steps of medallists. He succumbed to the machinations of C. L. Becker, who made a thorough job of it and won by 4 and 3. Scofield played a ragged game, for Scofield, and some of his shots described parabolas that could best be plotted in terms of the fourth dimension, but Beck er's habit of going straight down the middle and his consistent exhibition of uncanny putting had a great deal to do with the entirely unexpected result of the match. Becker got away to a good start at the beginning of the round and found himself 3 up when he took the sixth hole with a putt from off the green for a 2. Scofield cut down his disadvantage to 1 down at the turn but never suc ceeded in getting on even terms and finally lost the match by 4 down at the fifteenth where Becker sank one of his long putts for a win. Young Hotchkiss was plainly nervous throughout his semi-final contest with Phillips and the latter won without any great difficulty by 5 up and 4 to play. In the final match, staged between Becker and Phillips, Becker adhered to the sterling game that had carried him through to victory against Bowman and Scofield but eventually succumbed to Phillips' greater length on the wooden club shots. The duel was a close and exciting one from start to finish and the opponents were never more than a hole apart until the fifteenth was reached, where Phillips made himself 2 up with a winning 3.. He handed Becker the sixteenth on a platter and Becker reciprocated by driv ing into the trap at the left of the green at the seventeenth. This compelled Beck er to take a 4 on the hole and Phillips won the match, the tournament and the President 's Trophy by negotiating the hole in a perfect 3 and finishing 2 up and 1 to play.
