The Course at Fanling was in excellent condition on Sunday when the final of the Championship was played between R. L. D. Wodehouse and W. D. Kraft. The rain which fell during the week softened to go ing and the greens especially were much improved as they were all able to be rolled and were remarkably

true.

It was a contest been age and youth; between a hard hitter who though erratic off the tee had wonderful powers of recovery, and a steady straight player who hits

Kratt booked his drive but it was lying well and with his cleek he got it well up the fairway. It took him

4 to reach the green however and he was lying alost the same distance from the hole as his opponent. | However he managed to get his putt down and won in 56 making him 2 up again.

At the 8th Wodehouse playing for safety took his driving iron and got a long straight ball. Kraft also had a good drive and then both were short with their mashie shots. Kraft ran up to within 4 feet
