MISS HOLLINS ERRATIC Plucky Game Is Played .by Amer ican Woman, Who Loses 2-TTp After Sharp Contest, With Both .Shining at Times. WILMINGTON. DeL, Oct. 18. For the third time in five years the women's National golf championship has been won by a player from the British Isles. On the course of the Wilmington Coun try Club today Miss Gladys Ravens croft, of the Bromborough Club (Eng land), ex-champion of Great Britain, defeated Miss Marion Holllns, of AVest brook, L. I., this year's metropolitan titleholder, two up, after a sharp con test, in which both played good and bad golf. The match was interesting from start to finish. Both players were nervous at times, but Miss Ravenscroft was the steadier. Miss Hollins, feeling the re sponsibility of trying to keep the American championship at home, played a plucky game. She got into frequent trouble by making bad drives, and would come up strongly and get into the game again with shots that won applause. She, however, could not take advantage of the bad breaks made by her English rival. " Her inability to do this helped her to lose the championship. Both Wenk In Putting. Both M.Iss Holllns and Miss Ravens- croft were good in their long game, but were uncertain and at times weak In their approaching and putting. Not withstanding the fact that Miss Ravenscroft at several periods was off her game, she covered the 18 holes in 86, the best score of the tournament. Miss Holllns' total score was 91. The American player opened the match badly. She had the first hole practically won, as Miss Ravenscroft got into a bunker and lost a stroke. Miss Hollins played her third stroke too strongly and overshot the cup. and the Desi sne coma io alter that was to halve the hole. Miss Ravenscroft won the second. three to four, and Miss Holllns squared the match on the thirdr 6 to 8. The next three holes were halved and on the seventh Miss Ravenscroft was one up. The eighth and ninth were halved coming in, Miss Holllns squared the match on the tenth, only to go one down again on the succeeding hole. The 12th and 13th holes were halved and Miss Ravenscroft took the 14th. which made her two up. Miss Holllns took the 15th, 3 to 4, making her one down and the next two were halved. Bull Fall In Ditch. With one chance left Miss Hollins drove into the brook ditch on her 18th and took two to get out. On her fourth she was upon the green and as her case appeared hopeless she did not play out the hole. Miss Ravenscroft was Just short of the brook on her drive and Itched over in her second so close ly that she had a chance for a par three, had she tried to hole out. 'Despite, showers falling Intermittent ly during the play, the largest gallery of the week followed the two players. After Miss Ravenscroft had been felici tated by Miss Holllns, the gallery rushed forward and showered congrat ulations upon the sterling British player. She had to do much handshak ing on her way to the clubhouse and for a long time after s-he reached there. Miss Muriel Dodd, the present British and Canadian champion, who was defeated by Miss Ravenscroft In the semi-final round on Friday was one of the most enthusiastic of those who greeted the new title holder. The prise, which now goes to England was held by Miss Margaret Curtis, of Boston, who won the National title in 1911 and 1912. Miss Curtis entered the 1913 championship, but was defeated in the first round last Tuesday by Miss Caroline Painter, of Chicago. Prior to Miss Curtis' possession, the American championship was held by Miss Dor othy Campbell, the former British champion, who won it In 1909 and 1910.

Cushions O'Donnell and Ileffron Are Trundling Leaders Clan B League to Be Put on Feet. The first two weeks of the Class A Bowling League, of the rortland Bowl ing Association, have resulted in some high averages. Should the season see an Improvement in any of them, or should they be maintained, they will probably set a new mark for bowling on Portland alleys. Tom O'Donnell, captain of the J. E. Kelly team, and Heffron hold the high mark for six games, with an average of 200 1-3. Franklin Is next with an average of 199 1-2. There are several others well in keeping with the high marks set by these leaders. All the way down tne columns it appears that the teams havo been well selected, for the averages are well above tha limit which ciusscs the City League men from the Com mercial League. The averages follow: Heffron. 200: O'Donnell, 200; Frank lin, 109 1-3; CMlroy. 19; Raymond, 107; Gus Ahrens, 16;-Case. 193; Melster, 192: Hauser, 186; Hanson, 1S2; Bechtel, 181: Tint. 181; Abies, ISO; Schacht- meyer 180: Christian, 179; Edgar, 179: Naper, 176; Major, lis; unpen, lia; Slater, 172; Tonslng, 171; Al Arens, 169; Myers, 162; Dittmar, lbh; Maker, 166: Leap. 165: Chitry. 165: Melvln, 164; Osterhaudt, 166; I'rotmt, 163; Biibcock, 161; Martin. 159: Kelly. 108: Ekleman. 155; Durston, 154; Jones, 14S; Birrell, 115, and Shepperd, 140.

A definite acceptance of the invitation sent them by the club was received yesterday. The opponents who will meet them In the local exhibition matches havu not been selected. 'The golfers would like to see H. B. Davis and Chandler Egan, the latter several times cham pion of the United States, oppose them. Jlr. Egan is living on his farm near Medford and if conditions permit hu will come here probably. He has not played much during the Summer and is somewhat out of form. Mr. Davis has been playing wonder fully consistent golf during the past Summer. Both men are admittedly star golfers and an exhibition match against the cracks from England would give the Portland followers a, chance to see Just how great they are. The Oregon golfers will have every opportunity to make a good Bhowing against the cross-pond stars. The Waverly Links are not too sporty and give the average player a better chance to make good against a star. They are in excellent condition. Both men have been playing almost every day on the Brooklyne links and are said to be in the best of form. Kay's drive is a treat for golfing eyes. Throwing all the power of arms, body and legs Into his tee shot, he seems to have wonderful control over the ball. The drive is not the only wonderful shot in the Ray bag. He uses his nlbllc where the average man uses his mashle. A 150-yard niblic shot is not unusual for him. His play delights spectators. Vardon and Ray Win. HOUSTON, Tex., Oct. 18.

THE latest reason for the dethrone ment of George Stovall as manager of the St. Louis Browns is his antag onism to coll?ge players. La van and Rodgers. whom he released, were rrom the University of Michigan. This is the rock on whicli lie and Owner Hedges split. Troy and Albany, of the New York State League, started a double-header recently which carried Into the nlglit so far that the hall could not be fol lowed. One of the players was hit In the head and a fatality was expected for. some-time as the played remained unconscious several hours. ' Anthony F. Wilding, the British con queror of Maurice McLouglilln, will give the United States star another chance as he announced recently that ho would appear In the Newport cham pionship matches next Summer. New York and Brooklyn fans who were unable to see the world's series games last week had the next best thing to It. Soino enterprising "movie" men went to work and took th pic tures, which were shown on the screens In Brooklyn and New York three-hours after the last ball went out. Walter J. Travis, the "grand old man of golf," is through with the game. This year was to be the tell-tale year but he was one of those who watched the semi-finals instead of playing In them.
