Misses Randall,
Mrs. Brant Is Fourth Victor in Title Flight; Favorites Have It Easy
Mrs. Lentz Defeats Miss Trimble in Championship Consolation Match; Warm Sun Makes Meridian Hills Course Steamy.
By TOM OCHILTREE Playing not quite so well in the sunshine as they did in the rain, Miss Dorothy Ellis and Miss Carolyn Varin, both of the Meridian Hills Country Club, and Miss Harriett Randall, defending titleholder from Hillcrest Country Club, today easily won their second-round matches to advance to the semifinals of the Women's City Golf Tournament. Their long games over the Meridian Hills Country Club course were
up to yesterday's standards when all three shot 41, but they weren't as
accurate around the greens. rs. W. L. Brant of Meridian Hills defeated Mrs. J. L. Mueller,
Broadmoor, 2 and 1, in the other|
match in the championship flight. Following are other championship flight scores: Miss Ellis defeated Mrs. Peggy Stonehouse, Pleasant Run, 7 and 6. Miss Randall defeated Mrs. Frank Grovenberry, Pleasant Run, 7 and 5. Miss Varin defaeted Mrs. W. H. Simmons, Meridian Hills, 5 and 4.
Mrs. Lentz Wins
In the championship consolation fiight, made up of players defeated vesterday in the championship flight, Mrs. Dale Lentz of Hillcrest defeated Miss Louellen Trimble, Highland, 8 and 6. Apparently Miss Varin had the most troublesome time of the three favorites. After having Mrs. Simmons five down at the turn she was forced to go five more holes before winning. Weather conditions were close to ideal for today's round, although the warm sun made the course a little steamy. It was a relief for the entire field which played yesterday through a hard downpour. The match between Mrs. Mueller and Mrs. Brant was see-saw all the way, with the players almost matching stroke for stroke on the outgoing nine. After a shaky start Miss Ellis, ranked as one of the favorites, finally defeated Mrs. Stonehouse, Pleasant Run, 7 and 8. In trouble on the first when her drive went into a bunker, Miss Ellis took a six to Mrs. Stonehouse’s five. It was the only hole Mrs. Stonehouse won, although they halved the fourth with sixes, the fifth with fives and the 1lith with fives. Miss Ellis had pars on the second, third, sixth, seventh, ninth, 10th and 12th holes and her par three on the 12th ended the match. Not hitting her shots as well as she did yesterday, Miss Ellis was out in 43.

a good 175-yard drive, while Mrs. Grovenberry was down the middle about 20 yards short of that mark. Mrs. Grovenberry hooked her second into the rough, while Miss Randall had a good second shot. On her third Mrs. Grovenberry recovered nicely and pitched on in four. Miss Fandall, meantime, approached the green in three and two-putted for a five, while Miss Grovenberry took three putss for a seven . Pitches on in Three
On the second hole Miss Randall again hit a good drive, and pitched on in three, while Mrs. Grovenberry, after driving adequately, flubbed her second shot. Her fourth was a nice pitch which hit about 10 yards from the cup. She sank her putt for five but Miss Randall dropped an eight-footer for a four to go two up. It was on the third hole that Miss Randall did her only poor shooting of the outgoing nine. This is a 151vard par-three hole, and while Miss Randall's tee shot was hole-high, it was way to the left of the green. Her pitch rolled over and her runback was long. She took two putts for a double-bogie five. This was Miss Grovenberry’'s best hole of the outgoing nine. She had an excellent tee shot about seven feet to the left of the cup which Miss Randall conceded. Both Drive Well Both drove well on the fourth hole, which is particularly difficult because it contains a fairway trap. Miss Randall hit this trap and
bounced out while Mrs. Grovenberry was to the right of it. Mrs. Grovenberry then diced out to the road. She took a penalty stroke, and finally was down in seven. Miss Randall's second shot was just short of the carpet and her pitch was about 12 feet from the cup. She putted for a five. On the fifth hole Miss Randall had a good drive with a good second shot just off the green but her third was long. She took two putts to get down for a five. Mrs. Grovenberry’s drive was good, her second was in the rough to the right, but she recovered nicely and got down in six. Sending her tee shot dead to the green on the short par-three sixth, Miss Randall missed an eight-foot putt by a whisker to take a three.

On No. T Miss Randall outdrove Mrs. Grovenberry by about 30 yards, hit a fair second shot and an excellent third shot, but went over the green on her fourth. She barely missed tipping her fifth shot, but had to take two putts for a seven. Mrs. Grovenberry flubbed her second shot, had a good third and fourth, trapped her fifth recovered nicely and two-putted for an eight. Slamming out a 200-yard drive on the eighth, Miss Randall sent an iron shot hole high and 16 feet from the cup and two-putted for a four.

PREPPING FOR PAR
By ART KRENZ NEA Service Golf Writer A stymie is negotiated by using the simple chip and run stroke or the putting stroke with a well-lofted club. As in putting, the backswing depends on the distance desired. Hit the shot a little stronger than the putt for the same distance. Loft and slight backspin will stop the roll. Give the left hand a chance to guide the club by keeping the hands in line with the stroke. Execute the swing smoothly. Avoid jabbing at the ball by keeping the clubhead low and close to the ground. Care must be taken so that the clubhead does not bite into the green. The shot need not be made with a sharp, downward blow. Minimum backspin is wanted. What little loft is necessary is taken care of by the clubhead.
NEXT-—The intentional slice.
