PHELPS WILL MEET
EVANS FOR TITLE
Midlothian Golfer Wins Way to
.':.'\u25a0: '\u25a0\u25a0 Finals Against the Western
; / ; Champion
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.. July 28.—
Charles Evans Jr. of Edgewater will
defend his title as western champion
against Mason E. Phelps of Midlothian
Jn the finals of the Western golf asso
ciation at the Minikahda club tomor
row. It will be a meeting of cham
pions, as Phelps won the western hon
ors at the Rock Island tournament in
3908. *
. Evans won his way into the final
round by defeating Robert E. Hunter
of Midlothian in a 39 hole match in
ihe semifinals today, while Phelps de
feated Warren K. Wood of Homewood
by 5 up and 4 to play. The western
champion gave .one of the most re
markable evidences of nerve ever seen
on a western course. Hunter was dor
mie one playing the eighteenth in the
afternoon round, but Evans made a
•remarkable three in the face of golfing
difficulties that would have over
whelmed any one other than of cham
pionship caliber.
• With the match even they started
the thirty-seventh hole, playing - that
hole, it appeared, as if the fates had
. doomed Evans to defeat. His drive
. went Into the first bunker and he lost
;a. stroke getting out. Hard luck still
• 'followed him and he overapproached
Into the sand trap on the far side of
,Xhe green. Another stroke was lost
there and he was on the edge of the
' 3?reen in f«ur. He missed a long pi}tt
for a five and was ready to giv« up the
hole, but his friends advised him not
to give up until Hunter had putted.
Hunter's second was short and he
overapproached on his third. He, took
three putts for a six and Evans holed
• .put in six and the match was still on.
Hunter was hole high on the second."
but on the <?dge of the green. Evans*
second was 60 yards short, Ijut he laid
bla approach almost dead to the hole '
and it was halved in four.
• Hunter wobbled badly going to the
third. The third hole. 130 yards, is lo
cated at the top of a hill. Hunter's
pitch was short and rolled back down
the hill. He put his second too far
.over and his third too far back toward
"the tee. He finally laid on the green
in four and missed a putt for a five.
Evans had better luck and holed for a
four, giving him the hole and a victory
in' the hardest fought match of the
tournament.
The Wood -Phelps match was one
• : sided and Wood never had a chance
•sifter the match was well under way.
• 'Pheips was 3 up at the end of the
; rnorning round and Wood was unable
; to improve his game in 'the afternoon.
\u25a0 Wood played into the woods several
• tiroes and always got a bad lie. while
, P-helps went in once, hit a tree and
I hounded out into the course. On the
.second hole in the afternoon Wood
. :laid himself a half stymie, but pitched
the ball In with his niblick for a half
• in. five.
\u25a0 Wood held Phelps fairly even for the
first six holes of the afterrioon. but
Phelps won the seventh, eighth and
ninth and was six up at the turn.. The,
match ended on the fourteenth green.

FAST PACERS OUT
FOR PARK HONORS
Driving Club Arranges Free for
All Pace Tomorrow to Dem
cide Supremacy
The feature event of" the San Fran
cisco driving club's card should bring
a record breaking crowd to the three
quarter mile track at the Golden Gate
park stadium tomorrow. It is the free
for all pace, the third event on the pro
gram, and it will bring together the
three fastest pacers hereabouts The
starters will be George Giannini's
George Perry, Luke Little
Dick and J. Kramer's Celia K. \u25a0
In a match race on Wednesday, which
proved rather unsatisfactory, Celia X
! took the measure of Little Dick." After
being beaten in the first heat the latter
broke his check early in the second
heat, and withdrew. Although Celia's
victory in the first heat was. clean cut.
the admirers of Little Dick still con
tend that he can beat Celia X' at a
mile. The latter is a green. pacer that
has started here only twice and won
each time. While b,oth will he out to
beat George Perry, the record holder,
the keenest rivalry exists between the
i other two entries. Perry has set a mark
! for the track that has never even been
approached. His time of 2:07% will
stand for mariy_a d?y. . Little Dick for
merly held the "record at a little over
2:12. If Becker can keep Perry on the
ground he figures to beat the\>ther two.
Nobody knows just how fast Celia X
is, but on past performances she hardly
looks to figure with Perry with the
latter at his best. Little Dick is in
grand form and they will both have to
go some to beat him. Little Dick will
b« driven by Verilhac, while Burton
will be behind Celia K.
.There is also a special match on. the
card between -Charles James' Reina
Directum and A. Ottinger/s Charley T.
They will be paced by a runner.
