Play is to begin at once in the Shanghai Ladies Golf Championship as the first round is to be played by November 18. The second round is to be completed by November 25 and the final will be played about December 4. The draw is as follows.
Second Round.—Mrs, Davis v. Mrs. Harrison; First Round.—Mrs Barter v. Mrs: Gordon; Mrs, Innes v. Mme. Laffond; Mrs. Howell v. Mrs. Omand: Mrs. Burton v. Mrs. Rigden; Mrs. Germ v. Mrs. Gubb; Mrs. Maitland v. MIS: Watson.
The first-named player in the match is to arrange the play-off with her opponent In the event of a match not being completed by the Biven date, the second-named player in the match automatie: lly enters the next round. out today. He was lamed just before the National in the Spring and therefore did not start, but, at the moment is as good as ever over the sticks and cannot be reckoned with lightly. The chase should fall to one of the three White starters, Major, Scamp or Wine. White Major and White Scamp have both performed successfully over the sticks this year and took premier honours at the expense of Mightylight each time. The former has already annexed three Nationals two in the same year, While White Scamp and White Wine are also National winners. Sparke will ride White Major and will have to go out 158 pounds, six pounds over weight for inches. White Scamp will have Striker on his back with four pounds extra and White Wine will have the able assistance of A.A. White.
After summing up the advantages and disadvantages of each pony I think the first two places should be filled by the White ponies and I choose White Wine to win from White Major while for the remaining place, Sammy.
