OTLQQK VOL. XX, NO. .10 , SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 27, 1917 FIVE CENTS HAMILTON LANDS THE MEDAL Leads the Advertisers Home in Qualify ing Round of Golf Tournament ! Maxwell. Dvali Barnhlll, nice and nidgreway to Second Jlace. Mr. Moore Outdistance .Ladles T CONTRARY to the statute made and provided, and all sanction of custom, the chairman of the entertainment com mittee of the invad ing golfers, forgetful of his func tions, usurped the place of the athletes and the sportsmen, and took the medal from the whole congress of his entertainees. The occasion was the Annual Golf Tournament of the Advertising Interests, one hundred and thir- ty-three of whom drove into the offing with high hopes Monday morning last. All day long the returns rolled in from all three courses, and lower and lower ranged the score that could win the event.

Spotts of New York: made a home run and cleared the whole field for first place, with a shin ing 70, 90 strokes and 20 handi cap. 77 took the second and third places both, at which point M. J. Grammont and W. W. Arn heim arrived simultaneously, Grammont with 29 and Arnheim with 18 handicap. Fourth place was more bitterly contested than any position in this day's play. There were no less than three claimants for the posi tion, ready to defend a net of 78 to the last putt. These were J. Concluded on page eighteen) GALBRAITH WITH. 97 Wins the Midwinter Handicap.
