To break 70 was the order of the da Gus Faulkner, having played indifferently in the morning, return- ed 63 in the afternoon giving him an aggregate of 149. Even then it was some time before he was assur ed of a place amongst the sixteen qualifiers...

The fun started when Henry Cot ton and Fred Robson, playing to- gether each did a 6 in the morn ing. They were both out in 37 and came home in 30!

Dead Heat,

With four holes to play Cotton was a stroke to the good but at the 13th, one of the longest holes, Robion put a spoon shot dead for a 3 and went ahead. He holed a long putt for a at the 17th to get two strokes ahead but got trouble at the 18th and took 3, Cotton holing a chip from a bunker for a 3, and so it was a dead heat.

Match Play Stages.

The veteran players proved supreme in the match play stages and Cotton was the only repre- sentative of the younger generation, to justify himself.

In the first round both record breakers, Gus Faulkner and R. A. Whitcombe were dismissed and in the afternoon both Abe Mitchell and Aurther Havers whose chances had been favoured met with defest.

Cotton played with confidence to win both his matches and in the

The Foursomes,

Miss Orcutt and Mrs. Martelle (America) beat Misses Pearson and Lobbett, 7 and 8.

Mrs. Watson and Miss McCulloch (Britain) halved with Misses Van Vie and Wattles

Miss Corlett and Mrs. Latham Hall (Britain) beat Mrs. Hill and Miss Stifel, one up

Mrs. Mida and Miss Hicks. (America) beat Misses Park' and Fishwick one up.

The foursomes result was thus two matches won by each side and one halved.

The Americans furnished a last. minute surprise with four team changes, but they were unable to golf honoury from America and prevent Britain regaining some lost

For example, Miss Gourlay was two down at the twelfth hole, but fought back like Miss Joyce Weathered did in last year's cham pionship. She did the thirteenth in two and obtained the lead at the

sixteenth.

Miss Orcutt (America) bent Mrs. Watson.(Britain), 4 and 3.

Miss Eaid Wilson (Britain) beat Miss-Van-Vie (America), 4 and 3.

Miss McCulloch (Britain) beat Miss Hicks (America), 2 and 1.

CLOSE OF THE SEASON TO-DAY.

UNCERTAIN FATE OF SOM? TEAMS.

Fort Vale did well in defeating Doncaster on Thursday to finish at the top of the Third Division (Northern, Section). Stockport coa- tinued to be very strong rivals for the hobour until this stage, having at one time held the lead. Port Vale, therefore, earn promotion to the Second Division, together with Plymouth from the Southern Section."

Sheffield Wednesday have secured the League championship for the second yes in succesaion. The issue in the Second Division is still an certain so far as the second team for promotion is concerned. Black. pool are marked down för promo- tion, while Chelsea and Oldham have to decide to-day which of them is to go up. The three teams are placed in the following position at the top of the League, table :-'-

P. W. D..L. F. A. Pts. Blackpool ...41 27 3 17 06 67 57 Chelsea 41 22 11 8 74 45 53 Oldham

.....41 1 11 9 50 49 63

To-day's matches will also decide the relegation problem. Two teams out of five at the bottom of the First Division will drop out at the ead of the day. Their position is as under :-

It will be seen that Notts County and Reading have completed their matches and are ahead of the other four teams as they 'how stand. As samning that all the four teams win to-day, Reading stand in danger of losing their place.
