Gregson took a 6 on that first hole after venturing into the rough, but only twice after that did he allow himself to stray from the straight and narrow path of driving and midiron virtue. On the long fourth and seventeenth holes he allowed himself a 7 and,a 6, but on all the other greens his ball was down in 5 or better. Although it 1s Impossible to make any predictions guaranteed to stand wp against the attacks of the long sea Rrass and the deep, loose sand that borders the Lido course, it doesn't seem like a foolish mind bet to wager that Gregson will make somebody play a lot of golf to beat him for the first Long Island amateur title. He lost strokes yesterday on the putting green, but hie me through the fairway was accurate and powerful, Because of the severe penalties im- posed by the Lido course on the erratle golfer, any one capable of consistent sharpshooting has better than an even chance. In the first round of match play yesterday afternoon Gregson beat E, W. Nash, 5 and 4, almost entirely because of his ability to escape the devastating rough stretches from which no golfer returns without adding some soul-searing strokes to his score, The second and third rounds of the tournament will be played to-day an@ » the final to-morrow afternoon.

Last night was another big night in The Evening World Head-pin Tourna- ment at the White Elephant Academy, thirty-two five-men teams competing. Many good scores well over the 400 mark were registered, ut at no time was the high team score in danger. Out of the 160 bowlers who came from far and near to try their luck at win- ning one of the coveted silver medals, seven succeeded, The medal winners were: Schlosses, Banner B. C., N. Y.; 112; Jaeger, Bay Ridge No. 2, Brook- lyn, 110; Parson, St. Mary's, Newark, 106; Vandekar Higgins and James Co., 105; W. Lutz, Banner B. C., N. Y., 105; Stevens, Knapp Co., 102. Up to the present writing 860 teams have bowled in the tournament and there are still a hundred or more teams scheduled to bow! In the affair between now and next Tuesday night, when the contest will come to a close. This means that 60 or 60 more teams mast enter and bow! If the ambition of the tournament committee, Mr. Jos. Thum and his able assistants, to have 4 1000 teams compete iri the tourna- ment Is to be realized. ‘Uncle’ Joe has sent notices to all the teams that have been scheduled to bow! earlier in the tournament, but for some reason or other found it Impossible to keep their scheduled obligations, telling them that an ynight between now and Tuesday they may put in an appear- ance at the White Elephant alleys be- tween 7 and 12 o'clock and they will be allowed to compete.
