The final round of the ladies’ champion- ship of the Sausalito Golf Club was played on Saturday afternoon between Miss Winifred Mason and Miss Mabel Mason, and was won by the former, who | is regarded as the strongest lady golfer | on the Fort Baker links. The winning | couple in the semi-final round of the, mixed foursomes played yesterdiy morn- ing were Miss Grace Martin and W. F. | Horn, who defeated Miss Winifred Mason and R. W. Mason, 1 up. The winning | coupie played in the afternoon against Miss Mabel Mason and J. M. Kilgarif, the match ending in a tie. Shortly after 2 o'clock in the afternoon Horace and Harry Rawlins, the two pro- fessfonals of the Oakland Gglf Club, ar- rived at the Fort Baker links and at once began play. They were followed by an admiring crowd of spectators, who were especially struck with the length of the experts’ drives and the accuracy of their approach shots. The clay ‘‘greens,” how ever, bothered the visitors considerably, as they vary greatly in speed, while all the greens on the Oakland links are tuft- ed. In many cases brilliant n?roaches, which would have laid the ball dead near the hole on a tufted green, rolled off on | the farther side. Harry Rawlins played brother, Horace, making his two rounds in 46, 46, while Horace's scores were 52 and 48. Two or three balls were lost in the matted | grass, others being dropped as near as po: le to the spots where they were sup- posed to be. The spectators were delight- ed with the exhibition, and greeted the experts with a hearty round of applause at the conclusion of the second round. Upon consultation with the brothers, a bogey of 44 was established for the course. e et JOENSON WINS THE » HANDICAP SINGLES Defeats F. J. Lane in the Finals After Allowing One-Half Thirty 0dds.
