GOLF CHAMPION
Veteran Three Times Winner
Whitney, and Veteran Geor
gia Stripling Contending For
Title.
Memphis.—Of the sixty-four who
qualified as contenners in the cham
pionship tournament of the Southern
Golf Association here, Perry Adair,
of Atlanta, 15 yearn old, and Neelson
Whitney, of New Orleans, title holder
and the only man who has won three
Southern championships remained to
battle in the finals today for the pre
mier honors of the 1914 tournament.
That the New Orleans veteran
would survive for the final play was
not unexpected, hut those who picked
tile Georgia, stripling as his opponent
were few Adair's play has beon the
surprise of the tournament. Starting
with a qualifying score of 82, nine
strokes above the lowest In medal
play, Adair first disposed of J. H.
Davis, of Birmingham, Ala.,, one up
in 19 holes. Next lie defeated bis
father, Geo. WT Adair, In an extra
hole match. Whitney Bowden, of
New Orleans, was the third to he
eliminated by the boy who won the
match two up, and then S. L. Probaa
co, of Chattanooga., two up, bringing
Adair to the semi-finals yesterday
pitted against Geo. V. Rotan, of Waco,
champion of Texas. Rotan fell be
fore the youth, lour up and three to
play in the 36 hole match.
Whitney who qualified In 80, won
all his matches with comparative
e3se, first defeating C. W. Jones oT
Macon, Ga., three and two, and later
disposing of H. Tutweiler of Bir
mingham, Ala., four and three; J. A.
Evans, Jr., of Memphis, five and four-,
R. G. Bush of New Orleans, two and
one. and in the semi-finals yesterday
Louis Jacoby of Dallas, Texas, four
and three to go.
Throughout, the tournament Whit
ney has played steady rather than
brilliant golf,, seldom finding It nec
essary to extend himself and in each
of his matches wearing his oppo
nents down by his consistent playing.
Only once was Jacoby leading the
New Orleans player yesterday and
Whitney squared the match after
having two holes, regaining the lead
on the next.
The match between Adair and Ro
tan was nip and tuck in the first
round with the Georgian holding an
advantage oT one hole at the end of
the morning play. In the afternoon
Rotan was completely off his game
and at the turn he was four down.
The match ended on the 15th green.
Whitney is playing as a member of
the AuduboiF Country Club, Adair of
the Country Club, of Atlanta.
