RANKINGS
RUSHING IN from all parts of Britain, and LATEST rankings are:
snatching brief holidays from their war-work, over 130 women golfors, including the champions (past, prosent and future) took part in a grand tournament at the Royal Mid-Surrey course or- ganised by the "Daily Sketch" in aid of the British War Fund just over a month ago.
Included were Miss Pam Barton (the champion), Miss Wanda Morgan (1935 British champion and inter- national), Miss Molly Gourlay (1926 and 1929 English champion and international), Mrs. A. C. Critchley, for- merly Miss Diana Fishwick (1930 British champion, 1932 English champion and international), Miss Doris Cham- bers (1923 British champion and international) and Miss Beatrice Perry (nine times winner of Tasmanian title).
But Miss Maureen Ruttle, 17-year-old schoolgirl at Parkstone, overcame this formidable field with a very fine 75 (two over Par).

COTTON turned up just
after his wife had finished.
Said Mrs. Cotton: "I have walked 27,329 kilometres watching you play golf, and you can't turn up in time to watch me.
Said Mr. Cotton when asked why he did not carry his wife's clubs:

THE thirty-seventh-hole vic-
tory of Henry Cotton over Alfred Padgham in the "News of the World" £1,250 tourna ment appears to have raised an argument at Home whether 18 or 36 holes provides the fairer test.
Colton was one up after the first 13, and the match was all square at the 28th. Some seem to think that to have the match, decided on the extra hole was unsatisfactory
