San Remo, Feb. 24. English golf prestige received another uplift to-day when Percy Alliss (Beaconsfield); the English professional won the Italian Open Golf Championship with a record aggregate of 262.

This game was, without question, the worst served up by first division teams this season. It was painfully ridiculous that two teams, both in the top half of the league table, could give such an exhibition. If points had been allotted for re- spective performances both teams would have left the field empty handed.
