The rest of the fourth round matches resulted as follows: Hatton beat Edwards; Piper won a close one from Lyons; Richards had a “walkover” from Brown; “Colonel” Vaden, who has been living on the links all summer, found another victim in Seott; Al Schofield and Harry Griffith ran true to their Vancouver form, and Al won; he was steadier, Reynolds lost to Metzger and Horner won from that sterling one-armed wonder, Harry Calohan, Next week's play will determine who are the semifinalists, The remaining eight are drawn as follows: Power vs, Hatton and Piper vs. Kichards in the upper half and Vaden vs, Schofield and Metzger vs. Horner in the lower half, The latter player, like tis namesake, “Little Jack,” “sat in his corner” when he put Metzger out of the running a few days ago. Whether his “pie” will be Vaden or Schofield and whether he will “eat it,” remains to be seen, The ears of the handicappers of the Elke’ golfers must be tingling these days for many of the Brother Bills are squawking loud and long at the marks given them. Being on a handicap committee is one of those thankless jobs, but, nevertheless, when the list and figures are given the once over, it is not surprising that some of the “2” herd are baying.
