NEW ZEALAND CHAMPIONSHIP MEETING.
By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, September 14. The second day's play of the New Zealand Golf Championship was held in perfect weather to-day, the green playing too fast for most of the competitors. One hundred golfers took pare in to-day's events, which included the third and fourth rounds of the Open Championship, the first and second qualifying round of the Amateur Championship, the Medal Handicap and the Inter-club Match. The number on the links was too great, and ths consequence was that many players were unable to complete the second round owing, to darkness come ing on. J. Clements, the Wanganui pro r fessional, retains the title of Open Champion with a four round stroke score of 324. His play was remarkably consistent, his rounds being 80, 82, 81, 81. 3. C. Bidwill, of Wairarapa, was second with a score of 330, G. F. Hood (Auckland prbfes • sional) third with 333, and A. Duncan, Wellington, fourth with 335. The morning Medal Handicap round was won by H. Stringer (Auckland), and the afternoon round by A. Howden, Waitemata. The Club Match was won by Wellington A team, composed of A. Duncan, J. C. Bidwill, K. /Duncan and A. J. Abbott.
