Harding trophy. Although McGuire was down all the way in the match with Houghton, he came from behind at the fifteenth, winning that hole and the seventeenth to carry the match to the eighteenth green. He lost the eighteenth, Hough- ton winning by 2 up. The latter was the steadier, McGuire saving himself on two occasions by good putts. Stage 23-Hole Battle. Although the final was interesting because it was so close, the semi-final match between McGuire and H. G. Pitt was the stellar contest. Pitt and McGuire played 23 holes before the latter won. Spectacular shots, deadly accurate putts and a splendid display of nerve on the part of the contestants featured one of the best matches played in any tournament about Washington this year. Pitt became only 1 down at the ninth when he holed a good putt for & birdie 3. He went into a one-hole lead at the fourteenth, only to lose the fifteenth. They halved the six- teenth and Pitt holed a 20-foot putt for a half in 3 at the seventeenth after a bad second shot. It appeared certain the match was over at the eighteenth, for McGuire ran 20 feet past the pin, while Pitt, on the like, laid his bally within two feet. However McGuire ran down the putt for a half. Then came the most spectacular shot of all. Pitt sliced his tee shot far to the rough at the right and plaved a niblick that was perfect. Eight* inches more and the ball would have gone In for a 2. Just such a shot was required, for he had a bunker to carry at the end from a bad lie. McGuire nearly holed a chip shot, and the hole was halved in 3. He halved the short second in 3 and the third in 4s. McGuire missed a four-foot putt to win at the twenty-second hole, and finally won the match at the twenty-third, where he sank a 10- footer for a 3, while Pitt missed one of 6 feet for a half. Both men played the regulation 18-hole distance in 76, and McGuire was one under par for the five extra holes played, while Pitt was even. In the meantime, Houghton, play- ing better than par golf, getting around in 71, had won by 4 and 3 from J. J. Lynch. Owing to the late start- ing, time the contestants agreed to play an 18-hole final instead of the scheduled 36. Houghton broke into an early lead, winning the first two holes. He came to the ninth only 1 up, McGuire run- ning down a 15-foot putt for a birdie 3. Houghton won the tenth to again establish a two-hole lead, only to lose the long eleventh. Houghton won the twelfth and they halved the thirteenth, Houghton winning the fourteenth when McGuire topped his tee shot. McGuire annexed the fifteenth, the sixteenth was halved. McGuire, dormie 2 down, drove the green at the seventeenth to win with a par 3. At the eighteenth McGuire pitched over the green. His return chip shot again over and he picked up his ball.

Barnes and_Hagen have been close rivals ever since they tied for fourth place at 307 in the national open championship back in 1913. Both | were just starting their careers at that time. Barnes had come to this country eight years previously at the age of 19, had served an apprentice- ship at the club in Oakland, Calif., an: d, after going to Tacoma, Wash., had worked like a Trojan in developing his game. He made his debut in major compe- titions in 1912 at Buffalo. The follow- ing year saw him, stepping out as a prospective champ, and from that time until the past three years he and Hagen have dominated the game in this country. With the great number of star young professionals coming along so rapldly, both of these vets have been finding the going rather difficult of late. Like Hagen, Barnes has now won every title of fiote. His one ambition since he won the national open tourna- ment in Washington in 1921 has been to capture the British crown. Greens to His Liking. Barnes was fortunate on this trip to find the greens at Prestwick light- ning fast. The big fellow is a wizard in negotiating slippery greens. At the Columbia Club in Washington in 1921 the greens were very slippery, and while the others were struggling fiercely trying to get down in two putts, Barnes was having a picnic with his delicate touch. Of course, Barnes didn’t win on his putting alone. He is a great player in the wind. Probably he has no supe- riors in this respect. Again he is a master of the pitch-and-run shot, which was practically essential during the tournament this week. The greens were 8o fast it was almost impossible to pitch to them, and the pitch-and- run shot fitted into the scheme of things very nicely for Barnes espe- clally. What is more, Barnes is a wonder in playing a chip shot, and this proved very useful to him in this meet. The big fellow plays all shots with an open stance. He has a tendency to hook with his wooden clubs, but on the whole his driving during this tourna- ment was excellent. His long iron game, which is really Barnes' forte, was superb and was responsible for his fine scoring more than any other club in his bag. Wil Visit Old Home. By the Associated Press. LONDON, June Long Jim Barnes, American professional golfer, was bound for his old home in Corn- wall today to receive the congratu- lations of his mother as newly crowned open champfon of Great Britain. He finished the grueling competition at Prestwick, Scotland, yesterday with two rounds of 79—74, which, added to Thursday's 70—77, gave him an even 800, or one stroke below the two Brit- ishers on his heels, the veteran Ted Ray and the rising star, Archié Comp- ston. Smith, MacDonald the American, who had been favored for the title after his record 69 of Thursday after- noon, broke wide open in the last 18 holes and took a bad 82, to finish third with 303. Abe Mitchell, long- driving Britisher, was fourth with 305, and fifth place was divided among five Britons, including the veteran J. H. Taylor. Joe Kirkwood, the third of the in- vading American pros, managed to land among the first 10 with 314 by dolng two 76s after his poor start of 162 for the first two rounds Thursday. The British golf experts seemingly are impressed more by the fact that Smith lost than that Barnes won. Be- fore vesterday's play began it was evident, experts agreed, that nothing short of a miracle could bring back the champlonship, won last year by American free lance, Walter Hagen, but Smith was the favorite, and his collapse vesterday is termed as one of the most astonishing ever seen in any open championship. He was worrled by the dense crowd that followed. Bothered by Gallery. Some critics declared he had to fight rather than play his way through. A number of writers even contend that Prestwick should never again he the scene of the champion- ship because of the difficulty of pre- venting interference by the gallery Barnes' victory, nevertheless, is cor- dially commented upon. The experts concede that he is one of the greatest golfers ever, and laud his personality. Consolation is found in that he is not vet a fully naturalized American citizen and still nominally an Eng- lishman. There {s natural disappointment among the British at the fallure to return the title to these shores, but the defeat is taken philosophically with such salvings as the Daily Mail's comment: “Great Britain still is able to produce, if not always able to re- tain, the greatest golfers.” Barnes plans to stay at Cornwall a while before returning to America, at a date not vet definitely fixed. He does not intend to participate in the Gleneagles tournament. Jim Barnes now has captured all the major titles open to a professional golfer. His feat in lifting the British open crown after several attempts puts him on an even footing with ‘Walter Hagen and Jock Hutchison, the only other Americans to capture this highly ‘honored title. Yesterday's victory was his first important one since 1921, when he ‘won the American open at Washing- ton. He has held the American pro- fessional -open champlonship twice and the Western open three times. He was the North and South open champion in 1916 and 1919, Like Hagen, he is virtually a free- lance professional. He has a small daughter whom he is training in the rudiments of the game with the object, his friends jokingly remark, of developing another Joyce Weth- ered. He makes his home in New York.
