At Broadstone
When a girl starts to learn golf in England the professional who gives her her first lesson usually begins by showing her some photographs of Joyce Wethered. Putting, chipping, driving. Miss Wethered's supple shadow has thus come to dominate women's golf abroad and, to a large extent, in the U. S. Since Miss Wethered seldom bothers to play in tournaments any more, the British Women's National played without her last week at Broadstone was little more than a series of illustrations of how well or badly England's golfstresses had mastered their copybook. Mrs. Herbert Guedalla, who as Edith Leitch sometimes used to give Miss Wethered a close match, seemed formidable until a red-cheeked girl named Diana Fishwick put her out in the semifinal. In the final Miss Fishwick played Miss Molly Gourley of Camberley Heath whose game, like her name, moved with the jolly confident rhythm of a country jingle. Inexperienced. Miss Fishwick's efforts to surpass herself kept a niblick in her hand a good deal of the time. Consistently down the middle. Miss Molly Gourley of Camberley Heath took the match, the title, 6 & 5.
