BT ROSCOE FAWCETT.
As a result of second-round matches
yesterday at Waverley the race for the
1917 Pacific Northwest golf title Is
narrowed down to eight men Jack
Neville and Arthur Vincent, of the San
Francisco Golf and Country Club: Ru
dolph Wilhelm and William Gotelli, of;
the Portland Golf Club: Ellis "Bragg
and R. C. F. Astbury, of Waverley. and
"Dixie" Fleager and Paul Ford, of the
Seattle Golf Club.
Aside from the victory of the Port
land Golf Club team over the Seattle
Golf Club in the C. II. Davis. Jr., cup
competition, the feature of the ex
tremely hot day was the elimination of
Clyde Graves, of Spokane, by R. C. F.
Astbury, of Waverley, 1 up on the 18th.
Graves put Russel Smith out the day
before.
The 16th. proved Mr. Graves' Water
loo. With the match all square and
both playing sensational golf, Mr. Ast
bury sunk a two from off the green on
the 16th and this lead he maintained
through the next two holes.
KinlKhea Are Exciting.
Several other exciting finishes were
served tip to the galleries.
J. R. Straight took "Dixie" Fleager
to the 19th hole and then lost to the
Seattle champion by a stymie. Flea
ger was down or square all the way
to the 18th. He holed a tricky ten
foot sidehlll putt on the 17th when a
miss would have put him into the dis
card. They halved the 18th with 6s
and Fleager won on the 18th with a 4,
Straight running into a dead stymie.
Both shot 75 medal.
William Gotelli. the 20-year-old Port
land Club phenom, also negotiated a
75, eliminating J. H. Ballinger, of
Seattle. ,
Wilhelm Get Thrllla.
Charles Maud, the veteran Califor
nian, who held the Coast champion
ship in the old bicycle days, gave Ru
dolph Wilhelm a few thrills, but the
Northwest open champion eventually
nosed out a win, 2 up and 1.
Ellis Bragg, of Waverley, shot a
76 and defeated Charles Miller, a fel
low member, 1 up.
J. J. Dempsey, of Tacoma. played
sensationally, but had to bow Defore
the superior prowess of Arthur Vin
cent, a California expert. Vincent, by
the way. won the Michigan State
championship last year.
Jack Neville defeated W. J.Noonan,
of Tacoma, 4 up and 3, and Paul Ford,
of Seattle, won from Roscoe Fawcett
on the 17th green, 3 up and 1.
Neville Mar Meet AVllhelm.
With the race down to' the semi
semis. It begins to look like Jack
Neville versus Rudolph Wilhelm in the
finals.
Neville meets Paul Ford today, and
if successful his next opponent will be
the winner of the Fleager-Astbury
bout.
In the lower bracket Rudolph Wil
helm meets Gotelli and Ellis Bragg
will get the acid test against Arthur
Vincent, of the San Francisco Golf and
Country Club. Gotelli and Bragg both
have been playing great golf all week
and unless the strain proves too great
down the home stretch it will take no
miracle to put one of them in the
finals.
Rudy Wilhelm turned some brilliant
golf in the Davis cup match. Natur
ally, the dope figures him strongly in
the finals against the winner in the
upper half. Neville is playing rather
more consistent golf than some of the
others in this bracket. Good-sized gal
leries follow him in every match.
Women's Play Interests.
First-round matches in all the flights
and the first round of the women's
championship rounded put a busy day
yesterday.
Women champions and ex's met with
a multitude of vicissitudes during the
day. In the championship first-round
matches Mrs. Feter Kerr and Mrs. J.
A. Dougherty, two Oregon title-holders,
were eliminated, while Mrs. Elizabeth
Curran, of Tacoma, former Northwest
champion, met her Waterloo in Miss
Anita Thome, of Tacoma. Miss Thome
won on the 19th hole with a brilliant
four.
Mrs. Oskar Huber's death cast a pall
over the tourney yesterday- and sev
oral of her close friends defaulted
their matches.
Mrs. George H. Mayes won her match
by default and Miss Agnes Ford. North
west chamoion, also won by default.
The choicest feat of the day was
beautiful 85 by Mrs. C. F. Ford, of the
Claremont Club, Oakland, when she
eliminated Mrs. Peter Kerr, 5 up and 3.

r
T'S a fine thing to sit around the
"nineteenth" and talk about "our
best little golfer," the champion of
the Pacific Northwest, to-wit; but
there's a whole lot more fun sitting
about this same No. 19 and butting in
with a few remarks, en passant, about
"our team."
There's a whole lot more drinks fol
low the gossip about four men than
there is about one man. At least, four
to one. At the "nineteenth" this aver
age is highly appreciated especially
as the other fellow is buying while
you are talking about the team. Every
body buys while listening.
That's why the Portland Golf Club
should find the "extra hole" a real
cozy corner sort of a place for the
next twelfthmonth; for it is the bunch
from Raleigh Station that has proved
to the satisfaction of everybody that
they have the best four-man team In
the whole Pacific Northwest, embrac
ing no less a contiguous territory than
British Columbia, Oregon. Washington,
Idaho and Montana.
Portland C.olf Team Wlna.
The Portland Golf Club team of four
Wilhelm, Fawcett, Straight and Got
telli proved up at the Waverley course
yesterday on this considerably-contended
point. First in the qualifica
tion test for a right to play for the
Davis trophy a very beautiful bit of
silverplate that Bet back Charles Henry
Davis, Jr., 250 iron men the Portland
Golf Club team met the second qualify
ing team, that from the Seattle Golf
Club, and defeated them yesterday by a
margin of one hole.
To recapitulate, briefly, the Davis
Trophy was put on the map last year
at the Spokane tournament. Harry
Davis, impresario of the present 17th
annual tournament of the association.
had the big piece of silverware serving
as a window display at a Chicago
silversmith's for eight months and
gathering dust when he conceived the
happy idea of putting the plate to some
utilitarian use.
He didn't know Just when or why
he had made the buy: anyhow, it had
been made, probably during an uniucid
moment. With some prayers and some
conferences with friends, of whom the
writer happened to toe one. he finally
hit upon the team match, to be held in
conjunction with the Pacific Northwest
championships. The terms. Drieny,
called for the nomination of a team
from each club represented vat the
tournament, with their qualifying
rounds in the amateur title event to
decide the issue of eligibility.
Contest la Closed.
At the tournament now in progress
at the Waverley Country Club the
Portland Golf Club team .qualified low
with a total of 643 strokes as against
the 48 of the Seattle Golf Club quartet.
Waverley was seven points away from
Seattle and Tacoma. Spokane and Van
couver finished in order.

PEONY NURSERY TO BE VISITED
Hunt Club Members to Be Guests
of II. E. Weed Saturday.
Members of the Portland Hunt Club
have been invited to visit the Howard
Evarts Weed peony nursery, near
Beaverton,. next Saturday. The nursery
has many thousands of beautiful
peonies in 'bloom at present. It is lo
cated one mile east of Beaverton, on
the Canyon road.
The start will be made from the Port
land Riding Academy at 2 o'clock P. M.
Harry M. Kerron, master of foxhonnds,
is desirous of a large turnout, and he
requests that all who desire to make
the Journey notify him at Main 873,
or Claude V. Bowman, secretary, at
Main 8449, not later than tomorrow
night at 8 o'clock. The visit to the
nursery is taking on an aspect of an
annual affair among the members of
the Hunt Club.
Anglers Visit Waslioagal River.
William E. Block and Harry Moun

glers, returned Sunday night from a
fishing trip on the Washougal River.
set of best-ball matches, total points
to count in the final figuring. And,
when all was said and done, this same
Portland Golf Club team finished i
front by one hole up. That is, to make
it clear, one hole up out of 36. If the
reader gets this he gets an idea of how
close it all was.
He also must grasp the idea that it
has taken many words to convey that
the Portland Golf Club has the best
four-man team in the Pacific North
west.
At Spokane last year Waverley beat
Seattle by three holes. The Waverley
team was composed of Russ Smith, C.
H. Davis, Guy Standifer and Forest
Watson. The Seattle team embraced O.
W. Potter, Paul Ford, Jack Ballinger
and George H. Tilden. In place of
Potter who is a member of the reserve
officers' corps, the Presidio Seattle
mis year naa ii. a. i"Dixie ) Fleager.
Fswcett's I'layina; Saves Day.
In yesterday's pairings Fleager and
Ballinger met Rudy Wilhelm and Ros
coe Fawcett, and Paul Ford and George
Tilden were pitted against Jack
Straight and, Billy Gotellt. As things
eventuated, golflcally, the former team
lost by two holes and the other team
won by one hole. One from two leaves
one; hence, and consequently, Portland
won. by one.
Fawcett, who was too modest to
write this story, saddling it onto
stranger in the town, saved his team
from a poor showing in the first nine
holes of play. His partner, Wilhelm
was all over the lot, at the outstart, and
almost in the next township several
times. On the second nine Wilhelm
played most brilliantly, and Roscoe
simply sat back on his haunches, lost
in admiration of what Rudy was doing.
In the other match Gotelli and
Straight were playing a good in-and
out game, taking their turns at doing
something for the good of the cause,
They were fighting all the time. They
made mistakes at the finishing hole,
where Cotelli used a new driver foi
the second time this season being
kicked on the shins for this faux pas
by Professional Harry Pratt when h
drove the first out of bounds an
where Straight missed a swell chance
for a half by overplaying his approach
putt and missing coming back.
Seattle Players' M intakes Costly.
But. at that, the god of Luck was
with them, when Ford missed a three
foot putt for a win at the 17th an
when Tilden took three putts inside
the lD-foot mark at the 16th; only to
get a half. . So, as golf goes, they won
on the mistakes, but by two to one.
Had they lost on the breaks the whole
match would have gone to the extra
hole. v
But, Inasmuch as they didn't, tb
match ended, just as has been told in
the fourth, 12th and 15th paragraph
in favor of Portland, by one hole up,
At the turn the Wilhelra-Fawcett
team was one down. Just ahead of
them, the Straight-Gotelll team was
turning all even. It was on the secon
nine, then, that the match hinged
and Willielm delivered the goods.

crossed first base and thinking him
self out under the infield fly rule he
walks toward the bench. He discovers
his error and again starts to first base.

Another Portland Club player. Dr.
John H. Tuttle, turned in a star card
yesterday, defeating C. M. Weatherwax
in the first flight, up ana s. xney
played the lower line first, and Dr.
Tuttle shot a so.
Miss Anita Thome displayed unusual
sangfroid on the 19th tee. Playing the
extra hole against the former North
west champion, Mrs. Elizabeth Curran,
of Tacoma, Miss Thome hit a beautiful
180-yard drive straight down the
course. Mrs. Curran hooked and was
short on her second. Miss Thorne won
with a four.
Russel Smith "won his first flight
match from A- C Stewart, of Vancou
ver, B. C. with ease. 5 and 4.
A night's rain would help some. Hot
weather of several days back has
baked the fairways until they are a
trifle too hard.
Hugh Gearin pulled a mean trick on
a fellow member of the Portland Golf
Club. Mr. Gearin and Dr. W. L North
up had to go to the 19th hole and the
former sunk a three for a win In the
fifth flight, initial round.

Miss Anita Thome drove a beautiful
ball off the 19th tee in her extra hole
match with the former Northwest
champion, Elizabeth Curran. Both are
Tacoma entries.
Had the Western Golf Association's
non-stymie rule been adopted by the
Northwest officials there might hare
been a different story in the Fleger
Straight match. "Dixie" laid Straight
a stymie on the 19th green and won
the match.
Dr. K. E. Moore, of Waverley, quali

his mettle yesterday by negotiating
the 18 holes in 87 and trimming Egbert

For mettle the match between J. R.

the best of the day. Their card read
as follows:
