UAWKE'S BAY CHAMPIONSHIP. A WIN FOR WOOD. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Napier, Last Night. There was a large crowd to witness Hie final .day's play of the Hawke's Bay tournament. The last round of the championship between B. B. Wood (Christchurch) and Kurnpo Tarcha (Napier) provided good sport for the onlookers. It was supposed that Wood would hold his opponent all through, but this forecast proved incorrect. He secured a lead at first, chiefly owing to his excellent putting, but the local champion caught him at the eighth hole and finished the first round with a lead of two. In the afternoon round KUrupo again started badly," but picked up, and at the ninth hole and also at the eleventh and fourteenth the players were all square. Wood then got away, j and in the end won by two up and one I to play. The play was very even,' though the wind interfered to 3ome I extent.
