WON BY SHOT IN DARK
A tee shot played in the darkness, | and which fiuisned 18in from the hole, was responsible for the defeat of the holders, E> H. Chambers and K. V. Braddon, of Beaconsfield, in the second round of the Golf Balls of Stoko TourBall Tournament at Stoke Poges. The decisive shot was played by W. H. Bermingham, an old Cambridge Blue, at the twenty-first; to -which the match |had been 'prolonged:/ The third is a one-shotter of'lßo yards—and owing to the darkness the pin was invisible. Indeed, it was difficult-to decide on the precise direction at which to aim. It was a testimony to tho accurate hitting of the. four- players concerned that each found the green, though none could tell the .fate of any of thel shots as they left the tee. ■ Arriving on the green, the players saw one ball near the stick, which turned put to be Bermingham's, who holed the putt for a 2 to win tho match!
