Cotton's Failure

With a nɔtworthy round of 88, a score equalling the record of the course, Abe Mitchell led the field in the first" of the four rounds in the Dunlop, Southport, £1,600 tournament at Ainsdale •

Two strokes behind are A. H. Padgham, of Sundridge Park; J. H. Rudd, of Houghton-le-Spring, Dur- ham; and W. J. Branch, assistant to his father at Henbury, Glouces- tershire; each of whom returned a 70.

Next on the list are S. F. Brews, the South African champion, and" J. McDowall. Turnbury, each' with 71. Those on the 72 mark include Archie Compston, C. A. Whitcombe and A. J. Lacey, none of whom is by any means "out of the hunt.

The most conspicuous failure is Henry Cotton, who, with a score' of 78, finds himself in a very hum- ble place. In view of his achieve- ments in the qualifying test, R. A Whitcombe, with 75. cannot be said to have lived up to his re- putation as one of the world's greatest card and pencil players. It is impossible "to resist the in- pression that Mitchell owed a good deal of his success to a wonderful start

Out in 35, he came back in the same figure with a notable. 3 at the 17th hole, of 452 yards, where he sent his drive to within a foot of the boundary fence. With pre-

The two long holes, the ninth and tenth, against the wind were reached with a drive and a spoon shot, and at each he got the eastest of 4's.

It is an important item because, apart from the fact that it more or less guarantees that, the colt

It should not be overlooked that the colt might not have been at his best so soon after his journey and, at any rate, he will certainly not lose anything in the way of form through being at Beckhamp-

It was only natural, touowing Wednesday's race, that there should be a host of stories about Colombo and the trouble he is supposed to give every time attempt is made to put a bridle on him.
