Those who think so will' pofüt.[ to the match between the Scottish Indies and men which was played at St. Andrews the other day. As a rule the concession of a half is not sufficient to give the woman golfer victory Nor was it on this but the ladies will derive justifi- occasion, ablo pride from the singles, of which they won seven and the men thris. Only in the fourzou did the male gulfers manage redress the balance, and there
