Vfie PINBHURST OUTIaOOK; VOL. XXIV. NO. 10 FEBRUARY 17, 1921 10 CENTS WOMEN'S ST. VALENTINE'S TOURNAMENT Won by Mrs. J. V. Hurd Mrs. J. V. Hurd, medalist, kept up the splendid form that marked her play in the qualifying round, and worked her way through to the finals of the Six teenth Annual St. Valentine's Tourna ment for Women, where she met and defeated Mrs. Joseph Bydolek by the comfortable margin of 6 and 5. Mrs. Hurd went out in 41 against Mrs. John D. Chapman in the semi final round and won the match 5 up and 4 to play, finishing with a total of 64 strokes for the fourteen holes where the match ended. Mrs. Chapman saved her best golf until it wras too late to be of much use. She took the eleventh with a remarkably fine 2 and won the thirteenth with an equally good 3, but lost the fourteenth and the match when Mrs. Hurd took that hole in 4. Mrs. Bydolek who qualified in second place, defeated Mrs. George M. Howard in the semi-final round and advanced to meet Mrs. Hurd in the final. While Mrs. Bydolek played an exceptionally good game, she was not equal to the task of defeating the title holder and lost to Mrs. Hurd by 6 and 5. Pinehurst is fortunate in having as a member of the cottage colony such a fine golfer as Mrs. Hurd. She has won more important competitions throughout the United States than any other woman golfer and is the only one who has won the British, Canadian and United States titles. She appears to be at the best of her form now, and if she starts in the National event this year she is certain to give the present title holder, Miss Alexa Sterling, a close race for the cham pionship. Mrs. Harriet Waters won the trophy in the second division by defeating Mrs. Myron Marr, 1 up, in the final round. The prize in the third division was won by Mrs. George A. Magoon, and Mrs. M. B. Sparks led her field in the last divi sion. The summary: First Eight First round match play. Mrs. J. V. Hurd, Westmoreland, beat Miss Dorothy Richards, Mayfield, 8 and 7; Mrs. John D.
