Instance of changed conditions od im the second round yester- L, Wintringer, Princeton had been selected as one ho’ surely go well into the tourna- hent. The Orange and Black leader d for his opponent Dan Williams all that was known about this Tan was that he came from i d's classical hills. (BW Williams fooled every one. He dy showed how golf clubs should mdied and, furthermore, how i could be picked on some of the host dificult holes at Gurden City. | FAimost before Wintringer knew what i happened he was four holes to he bad and with only nine played. Princeton star even slipped back at the eleventh, but BUT HAS HARD ROW 10 HOE lait by a single hole. Boyd Is second choice to win the title. He nearly met his Waterloo at the hands of Bowles, who showed unexpected strength controlling his shots, ‘This match was all square going to the 148-yard eighteenth over a large ly pond. It was here that Boyd, who is red-headed, showed the stuff of champions. After Bowles put his tee shot nicely on the Dartmouth star, taking d@iberate aim, made a beau- titul drive to within two feet of the cup and in such a way that Bowles was partially blocked when he started t™ putt Boyd naturally won this hole and the match, Boyd ia State cham- pion back home in Tennessee and ought to go clear through to the finals to tackle Knepper, Knepper, by the way, played some of the most brilliant golf of the day. In his first match against W. H. Taft, Dartmouth, the Princeton star nego- tiated the first nine holes in 35 strokes, two under par, This is a feat that few professionals could equal as these holes are severely trapped and ire seldom played in par. There was no need for Knepper to maintain this gait as his opposition Was not threatening, Knepper, bar- ring upsets, should come in possession of the title won last year by J. Simp- son Dean, another Princetonian who is now out of college. Jimmy Ward of Williams, runner- up to Jess Sweetser in 1920 for the intercollegiate, is another with claims on the cup. Ward put off a danger- ous contender in Laddie MoMahon of Yale in the second round. McMahon, when steady, fs one of the best young golfers in the New York district, but he was helpless before Ward. ‘The chief trouble with McMahon was a misbehaving driver. After the seventh tee McMahon never had a good drive. Weakness off the tee is fatal on such a heavily-trapped course as Garden City. McMahon went from bad to worse, Ward winning 5 up and 4 to go ‘The summaries follow: FIRST, ROUND—R.

Ten- nis Title To-Morrow. By Joseph Gordon. HAT may easily be considered the most interesting match of the current tournament for the women’s singles tennis champlon- ship of the State of Connecticut will be played to-day over the courts of the Country Club of New Canaan. Miss Helen Gilleaudeau of Mamaro- . playing through champion, will mebt, in the semi-final round, Miss Marion Chapman of Nyack, the young girl who recently took the tennis world by surprise by winning the New Jersey State championship from a field which represented the best tennis talent in the East. The winner of to-day’s natch will play Miss Lillian Scharman of Brook- lyn to-morrow in the final round of the match. Miss Scharman won her way into the final yesterday by ellm- inating one of the strongest contend- ‘d}ers in the tourney, Mrs, Robert Le Roy. Her victory over the more ex- pertenced player caused more or less of @ sensation, It was an accepted fact that she would give Mrs, Le Roy 9] @ stiff fight before being vanquished, but that she would triumph over her, and that with comparative ease was a complete surprise to everyone. The score was 6-3, 6-2. Miss Scharman, the metropolitan doubles champions, played the greatest game of her career yesterday. Her net work and back court play was of a very high order and by cunning returns she managed to keep her opponent on the offensive nearly all the way. She scored on beautiful passing shots and very often caught Mrs, Le Roy out of position. It was a fine game and Miss Schar- man is now looked up to with a great deal of apprehension on the part of the other contenders, Miss Gilleaudean is steadily climb- Chick Evans and Fred Wright Meet In Western Golf Semi-Finals George Von Elm and Clarence Wolff Clash in Other Match To-Day. KANSAS CITY, Mo. June 30.— “Chick” Evans of Chicago, George Von Elm of Salt Lake City, Clarence Wolff of St. Louls and Fred Wright of Los Angeles, will fight It out to-day in the semi-final rounds of the Western Ama- teur Golf Tournament on the Hillcrest 8 @ result of their victories Von Elm, the trans-Mississippi cham- pion and Pacific Northwest title holder, will meet Clarence Wolff to-day, while Evans and Wright will fight it out to decide who the other finalist will be. Play will be at 36 holes, Evana and Von Him had walk-aways in their matches, but Wolff and Wright were victorious only after nerve-break- ing struggles which produced beautiful golf. “Chick's victory was by @ score of 6 up and 6 to play over young Ted Payseur of Des Moines, while Von Elm had a 9 and 7 victory over Francis Gaines of Omaha, who yesterday elimi- nated Harrison Johnston of St. Paul. Wolff got Into the semi-finals through defeating 8. Davison Herd of Chicago, former national amateur champion, 4 Up and 8 to play, in a great match, and Wright was forced to show everything he had to win from Young Jess Stuttle of Kansas City, 8 up and 1 te play. Wolff played @ perfect game, his card showing figures about par. He did everything just right, his long drives landing just behind the powerful pokes of Herron and his approaching and putting excelling that of the Chicagoan, although the latter's work was good On al- most every hole he managed to keep even with his opponent and whenever the latter presented an opening Wolff was able to take advantage. Herron at times rose to super-golf, twice getting birdie twos on the 157- yard seventh. His defeat became cer- tain when he gliced his drive into the rough on the thirty-third, and though Wolff also played it poorly, a half in six gave the St. Louis man the match. Stuttle played a splendid game in carrying Wright to the thirty-ffth green, but the nerve and experience of the Pacific Coast shooter proved too much for Stuttle and he finally broke under the strain, At the twenty- seventh Stuttle sank a fifteen foot putt to keep in the match, but from then on Wright had things ‘pretty much his own way, Wright took the long, hard twenty-eighth in a perfect five against Stuttle’s eix, halved the next three and then won the thirty-third. On the thirty-fifth Stuttle blew up completely He dubbed his drive, hooked his bras- ste, sliced his third, ‘and Wright easlly clinched the match, 3 up and 1 to play. Payseur played a nervy game. He fought hard and tried everything, but was outclassed, Von Elm played the best golf of the day, He shot a 71, two under par, in the morning and had. every club work- ing perfectly all the time. On the sixth hole he rimmed the cup with a 150-yard approach, just missing an eagle 2; on the tenth’ he sank a 35-foot putt and all of his shots were close to perfect first nine in the afternoon was three strokes under par, and his showed a large percentage of “birdie: Von Elm, the trans-Mississipp! chain- pion and Pacific Northwest titleholder, will meet Clarence Wolff to-day, while Evans and Wright will fight it out to decide who the other finalist will be. Play will be at thirty-six holes. ‘The Summaries: c(hind Round—George Von, Elm, Balt, Lawe His 34, a st Clarence Wolff, vison Herron, ‘Chicago, 4 TAXI At Lowest Rates Main Office 41 Park Row Tel.Cortlandt 7371 and 0171 Day or Evening The John F.

In_ yesterday's match with Miss Agnes Sherwood of Rye she scored an easy 6-0, 6-3 victory by putting up as brilliant an exhibition as has been seen at New Canaan since the beginnin of the championships. Her control was perfect and her stroke as deadly as it had been throughout the tournament. Her aggressive play and severity of stroke kept Miss Sher- wood on a constant go. In the first set the Rye girl was hard pressed by the champion, with the result that she was unable to get even as much as one game. As the match pro- greased, however, Miss Sherwood steadied and began to do some scoring on her own account, She made sev- eral 6 railies and scored some weil executed shots. Miss Chapman defeated Mrs. J. R. Hall after the latter put up a stub- born resistance. In the first set the New Jersey champion had to show the best tennis she had in her before Mrs. Hall could be beaten, but in the second set Miss Chapman had every- thing her own way and won easily. The score was 6-4, 6-2. The brilliant work done by Miss Scharman against Mrs, LeRoy puts the Brooklyn girl to the fore of chief contenders for the championship. Miss Gilleaudeau will have to play at her very best to retain her title if the two meét in the final round on Saturday. ‘The summaries: WOMEN'S CONNECTICUT STATE CHAM- PIONSHIP SINGLE!
