GLENEAGLES COMPETITIONS. Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. LONDON, June 21. For the first round of match play at Gleneagles there was brilliant weather. Kirkwood beat Oke, 4 up and 3; Havers beat Butchart, the Scottish champion, 1 up; Barnes beat Holland, 4 up and 2; and Braid beat W. Ball, 4 up and 3. Other winners were Williamson, Seymour, Ockenden, F. Ball, Ritchie, Delatourre (who is a Spaniard), Twine, Johns, Lockhart, Gray and McNeill. Kirkwood played magnificently, going out in 35 and home (six holes) in 23.
Havers had a fortunate win after a ding-dong fight. He cut his drive at the 17th into broom, but had a good lie where the ball might have been unplayable. Duncan failed to qualify.
