Machamer, with a good drive, dubbed his second just over a bunker and chipped on eight feet shy of the can. Roche pitched up two feet past the cup, but after Jeff had missed his first putt the novelist failed to sink his short one for a victory. Both missed No. 2 green with the tee shots.

Machamer pulled his to the left, while Roche hit a "Palm Beach Special," a high ball, which fell short of the green. Jeff'F ap-pioach just made the edge of the green. Roche's was again short and when ho pitched again lie was four feet past the flag, Machamer's putt was dead for an easy four and when Roche bore down on his for a half it hung on the Itp and failed to drop. "Now I can take a swim with a clear conscience and not have to worry about my Thursday match," concluded Roche, as he shook handi with Machamer. Shot for shot, the two had been on about even terms all the way around the layout from the first tee.

Roche turned in a card of 82 for the round and Machamer was one stroke over, with an 83. Hex Bench, runner-up to Rice in last year's finals, pulled in Tuesday night, and was out shooting his daily round Wednesday, but not in any tournament match. Today, however, the stocky fiction writer will get his first competitive opportunity of the present season with his writing mates, as a special event for the afternoon is planned, including a two- ball foursome with handicaps 'n'ever thing. Likewise, a special match featuring Rube Goldberg and S. L.

Hyde- nian, is scheduled for 10:35 o'clock Rube and Hydenian were losers in their first matches in the third flight. They both claim the "booby" prize for high shooting in the present tournament, and will struggle through the sandtraps for a verdict this morning. Several of the players let their Tuesday nibt activities get the better of their golfing dates for Wednesday morning, ami did not show- up at the first tee until rather late in the afternoon for their matches. John Golden again proved his claims ot: bravery. 1 here are no more rules in the tournament to break," commented Joe Fuller, starter; "Golden just broke the last one." Scheduled for an lS-hole match with Maurice Collette, Golden desired to pla" but nine holes, and quit.

"It can't be done," said Fuller. "Watch me." came back Golden. At the con clusion of the ninth hole. Mons (, olden marched over to the scoreboard. "Default Golden to Collette," he growled in his most "tigerish" manner.

So there went the last rule. "Paid" Kelland took the most strenuous workout of the day and, somehow or other, his grouch had been left at the hotel. The novelist participated in an 18-hole bit of play in the morning, ate a hurried luncheon, and rushed out to the practice tee for a half-hour's workout, then started out with Goldberg -and Rice for another IS holes.

By HENRI BENDEL New York, Jan. 22. The development of the distinct type of costume called the afternoon gown is one of the winter's most important phases of fashion. It is customary to think of the afternoon gown as a European type of costume. It used to be.

Before the war, the Parisian had her wardrobe well supplied with those late hours of the daylight that lend themselves so well to entertainment. But with the war and its succeeding change in finances and customs, the afternoon gown all but disappeared. In the past few years, the European woman, quite like the American woran, was given to donning simple sports things that carried them successfully through the day until formal dinner and evening things were appropriate. New Day Costumes Now, with more leisure and more luxury, American women demand fitting costumes for their teas, matinees, bridge, art exhibitions and other afternoon social affairs. These costumes are extremely individual.

Most of them favor quite long skirts. A note of decorativeness is stressed. Lace, fine lingerie touch es and lovely color come in. There are, perhaps, more plain colored chiffons and crepes and laces tised for them, than there are figured ma terials. But when spring comes, I Many Gay Parties Given at Afternoon Tea On Poin-ciana Grounds The combination of music, tea, dancing and a tropically lovely set ting proved a magnet again on Wed nesday afternoon to attract many of the winter residents and hotel colony to C'ocoanut Grove.

Jeff Machamer, who is famed as one -of the best dressed men in the group, appeared Wednes day with blue shirt and sweater In harmonizing tones of blue, worn with white knickers, while the socks matched the sweater and the dark blue tie repeated the color of the tiny beret. Rube Goldberg's blue Shirts Jiave been a conspicuous bit on the landscape, up until- Wednesday when he did not appear.

Others preferring this color in shirts, sweater and socks Wednesday were J. V. Connolly, Dr. L. A.

Newman, Maurice Collette, H. T. Webster. Though just a visitor, the noted "Ducky" Yates appeared in the early afternoon in a bright blue shirt, Clarence Buddington Kelland pulled a fair imitation of Flo Ziegfeld appearing in a violet purple shirt with tie to match.

For on that clay there will be determined who will be the winner of the low net score prize, a first-class, round-trip ticket to Paris.

Swanson, John La-Gat ta allowed his match to go by default and returned to his slumbers. He appeared later1 in the day, his debonair self in the traditionally immaculate while linens. The banquet Friday night at the Poinciana Hotel, at which time the gorgeous array of trophies will be presented, will be altogether informal. Kay McCarthy said Wednesday. There will be no toastmaster or set speeches or entertainment.

And the old rule of a two-minute limit to all speeches will be strictly followed. But there is a well-substantiated rumor that Rube Goldberg, the inimitable, will be on hand with the annual collection of wise cracks. Arthur Somcrs Roche, a perma-1 nent Palm Beacher, who is a member of the association, is reported to have developed a wicked tee shot, apparently acquired playing on tho notoriously difficult West Palm Beach Country Club course.

The same colors, in small design, were repeated in the coat of horizontal stripes and the hat was white felt, the oxfords of black and white. White moire shorts with tuck in top and knee length coat formed one of the most striking bein-h ensembles: another being of tangerine and vanilla tones, the shorts of the former and the top of the latter, laced at the back which was cut to the waist.

The Chinese influence predominated in an arresting pyjama ensemble of lemon color, the square cut jacket outlined in deep, oriental blue and a belt of the same shade at the waist. Also of blue were the trotiscr cuffs. In lettuce green, capu-cin and urple-blue was a beach ensemble of figured trousers and coat and plain top another was white jersey with long trousers, the top sunback ami green flat bands forming the finishing touch.

115 Worth Ave. Palm Reach women turn naturally to prints and it is likely that figured fabrics will be more plentiful then. Each woman sho'jid suit her type in the afternoon gowns she dons. For the woman who wears tailored things extremely' well, there are crepes with molded body lines that give the effect of charming simplicity. These make much of collar and cuff effects and often through the body of the gown have rows of fagot-ting, hemstitching 01 some other hand work enriching the effect without any fussiness.

For the leisurely, languid type, there are afternoon gowns of flowing lines, with ti'rapes; scarf effects, dipping hemlines. For the woman who demands a touch of glamor in her gowns for her leisure moments, there are gowns arresting in their richness. Augustabernard makes a royal blue chiffon, relying on its cut and color for its chic. It features the new cap sleeve and the new square neck. There is a scarf effect across the back of this square neck which sends a drape do.vn below hipline on one side.

Two circular drapes on either sio'e give uneven hemline. To top this elegant afternoon dress, a hat of royal blue neora straw is trimmed with a two-toned feather banding across the front of the crown. pointed folds falling to the floor. Diagonal, narrow panels were stitched fla.t at the hip line, the fullness falling from them in circular effect. An accompanying cape showed the back almost entirely made of lame in a figured design of the loveliest tones contrasting with the frock, the same lame forming a pointed bateau arrangement at the front of the neck.

From below the lame at the back, was a circular flare of chiffon, the hole tied at the front with narrow bands. Worn with this model were moire slippers of Yale blue. Another striking dress for evening wearing was of white chiffon, with a diagonally placed narrow draped girdle, the full, circular godcled skirt falling to the floor In points. Orchid satin slippers completed the costume. Brocade displaying wisteria and rose flower clusters on a white background, the entire effect stately and of extreme distinction, formed a formal evening gown.

The back was cut very low and smartness was achieved by means of the long skirt and deep godets. The slippers were of wisteria satin. Harking back to the early eighties were touches on the evening frock of blue moire, which showed a bow low at the back of the skirt and clever clusters of shirtings at the waist back. Very full with scalloped edge was the skirt and the bodice entirely simple. A crystal bracelet and necklace by Napier completed the frock.

To bp worn for either afternoon or evening was a frock of blond lace, falling to the ankles, the skirt made with three full flounces. A narrow bertha fell to cover the upper arms. A horsehair 'hat, folding back from the face with wide brim, and satin slippers were of pale orchid tone. Another frock silk lace had pointed skirt flounces arranged diagonally and was accompanied by Machamer Out535 416 355- 10 In T4 555 436 13 S3 Out 51 Roche Out 1 15 45fi 33fl lit In 473 155 136 12 -S2 Out 55 Rice- Out -557 166 135-15 In 161 4 1 1 31 137 f. 2 Wcbb-Um -616 155 516 -15 In lit 556 III 12 S7 Emails Out 511 14 li 4 15 Ill III -15 1 555 545- 12 S2 New man Out 435 155 117-41 111 15 1 566 1 15 I6-S7 Fox Out 615 116 11512 In 4SI 556 4354 1 86 McAdums Out 557 3 17 -111 III 584 555 1 16 161)5 Black chiffon and black lace combine, in one afternoon gown I made, to give real distinction.

This is a combination afternoon and dinner gown, since the lace-sleeved jacket that ties at the waisUine is detachable and when removed, reveals a sleeveless dinner gown. A deep flounce of black lace and decorative bishop sleeves of lace are outstanding style points on this gow and illustrate the return to elegance this winter shows. An I'liique Straw A black neora straw, with an uneven brim, is trimmed with clusters of black ostrich pompons and banded by a very narrow black velvet ribbon. Tho black afternoon gown with a touch of white or pale pink is one of the correct new modes. 1 combine black faille and white tulle in a gown essentially simple yet intricately cut and embellished with This gown has a normal waistline and both the bolero effect and the deep hipyoke are achieved through lines of ham' work.

A circular collar and spiral cuffs are made of fluted white tulle, of rather medieval inspiration, which gives an effect of demureness and charm, An excellent choice for a hat to top this gown is a chic little turban made of black grosgrain ribbon, trimmed with a tiny cockade. a cape with blond fox collar. Clever dressmaking touches, such as flatly stitched, cunningly arranged panels distinguished an evening gown of lobster red. the neck square and the stitched girdle tied at the back. A short train completed the skirt and with the dress wen-worn gold slippers.

White chiffon organdy, with full skirt falling from a fitted hip yoke and its lower edg" embroidered with blue flowers, fashioned one of the loveliest of afternoon dresses worn with blue slippers and wide blue sash. Fine, imported net in hydrangea shade, alternating with shirred, horizontal bands, of self material formed another evening frock of satisfying loveliness, the whole accented by crystal and slippers dyed to match. That yellow is playing a lead in daytime ensembles was demonstrated by the several examples of that eolol shown at the promenade. One model in lemon shade was sprigged in small figures and made with bell sleeves to the elbows, the flaring skirt falling from a fitted yoke. With it were worn cream hose and black satin slippers.

A black baku hat and black atin shoes united to complete a frock of an off shade of yellow made with sun tan, tuck in blouse, and printed coat and skirt. Butter yellow printed with black and white flowers, widely spaced, made another creation which showed the very long skirt depending from fitted yoke. The accompanying hat was of black horsehair. Sprig green, one of the newest shades and resembling chartreuse, made a daytime costume accenting the new silhouette. The flaring skirt and short coat were worn with a white silk bodice, green and amber crystal necklace and black and white slices.

A sunback dress of white silk had a pleated skirt from tile hip yoke, with motifs in high shades bound for Palm Beach to meet her father, Walter A. Hughes, of New-York. The difficult lew of Whitehead became public property last winter when Miss Porter, his guest on a cruise in the Malvern to Havana, declared she beat him with shoes and pricked him with pins while the yacht lay at anchorage in the harbor of the Cuban capital. Miss Porter left the yacht when it touched Key West and asserted herself home-ward bound for Washington and her attorney.

NO RTH and WEST Excellent Through Service Dally on THAT individuality is the keynote of the new fashions and that Palm Beach, world famous resort, is the most important place in this country in which to view their best interpretations, were two of the main points stressed in a short talk given by Miss Lucy Park of the Fashion Coordination Bureau of New York and Paris, at the formal opening and prom-e a of Hatch's, Wednesday afternoon. "In Palm Beach fashions are both originated and checked and this year, especial interest attends their development because of the recent radical changes," Miss Park said.

"For the last ten years, until these important changes were introduced, styles kept more or less evenly to the same general monotone and their minor alterations were of less interest but this year, when even accessories are novel and different, their exemplification becomes a thing of world wide significance." Touching upon the importance of color, Miss Park drew attention to the fact that here, against the natural background of exotic brilliance and beauty, bright, highly-keyed tones were displayed to the gretacst advantage and became a natural product of the surroundings. She also stressed the fact that not by the frock alone is individuality and distinction achieved, but by the correct combining of all details of the ensemble; shoes, hat, jewelry, hose and even makeup. Beach ensembles, sports frocks, afternoon and evening costumes in all their delicate perfections, were displayed at the promenade following Miss Park's talk. Mannequins included Miss Mildred Kaveny and Miss Kalherine Clarke of Philadelphia, Mrs. Julian Sheen, Mrs.

The most notable features were that skirts were eight inches or more below the knee for afternoon and touching the floor for evening; that hose were In pale tan for daytime and a faint for sports frocks, and for evening in delicate tones related to the costume color shoes in brown and white for sports and pastel kids for afternoon with silk dyed to match the frock for evening. Jewelry, multi-colored for beach wearing, became short strands of more conventional design for sports with crystal used in various shades for both afternoon and evening- gowns. One particularly stunning evening ensemble, was of gilt-gold chiffon, the dress a graceful creation displaying a deep shoulder cape and the skirt an accented swirl of soft, dQlamingo Leaves Leaves Leaves Miami (F.
