Even with the customary activl

work at the movlo colony, I seem
uever to get very lar away from Rolf.
The other day I spent a morning
at tne ljatcesicie uountry ctuo, watch
ing Mrs. Leon a Pressler In the final
match of the Southern California
women s chainnionshlp, with - Mrs.
Uarry Grossman.
Mrs. Grossman, a capable and
courageous player, had supplied one
of the lead ins upsets in the tourna
ment by defeating Mrs. Gregg Lifur
miner conclusively.
The final proved on interesting
battle, and I camo away with the

He has scored only one wl n

must be confessed, was due mainly
to the excellent performance of his
partner in the match at Santa Bar

WILHELM MEETS
DOLP FOR TITLE
1930 Amateur Golf Cham
pion of State Has Chance
to Repeat Today.
PORTLAND, Ore., June 6
Prank Dolp, Oregon state golf cham
pion, today had one more hurdle to
clear to gain his second consecutive
state title.
That hurdle was R utile Wllhelm,
seven-times winner of the state
championship and Dolp's opponent
In the 30-hole final round on the
Woodland course of the Multnomah
country club.
Both players exhibited a stellar
brand of golf during qualifying round
and subsequent elimination rounds
but wuheturs spectacular work in
the pinches made him a slight favor
ite today.
Dolp downed Dr. O. P. Willing.
Walker cup player, 13 and 13, In one
of the semi-final matches yesterday
the severest beating Willing ban
submitted to in many years. Dolp
was ten up at the end of the first
IB holes, shooting two under par In
the morning round. He was one
under par on the second 18 when
the match ended. The defending
champion used only 30 putts on the
first 18 holes, whtlo Willing needed
37.
logon Nosed Out
Wllhelm had a battle all the way
Sesterday with Eddie Hogan. He won
y the narrow margin of 1 up but
only, through remarkable recoveries.
Hogan was only one down when
they teed off for the final hole and
his terrific drive was straight down
the fairway. Then Willing drove.
His ball sailed Into the woods and
the lie would have demoralized many ,
players. Wllhelm selected an Iron
and cleared the ball from the woods,
only to have It fall In the brush to
the right of the green. Again Wll
helm recovered, chipping, onto the
green. Hogan on in two, won away
and his putt rolled up alongnlde the
cup but two inches off line. Wll
helm. facing an uphill putt, stroked
boldly for the cup. The bull, straight
and true, dropped Into tho cup.
They halved the hole and Wllhelm
naa wan tne match.
MI KT WORK
She was three up after each had
women out a fine three on the 240
yard eighteenth: and Mrs. Grossman
at tho start of the afternoon round
cut that down by holing a short
pitch for a birdie three at the first
green. But the steady play of the
lour-umes southern California chnm
plon was too much, and Mrs, Press
ler went on to win handily.
It seems a pity that Mrs. Pressler.
