Of the Championship Golf Tournament in Pinehurst Given to Charlotte Observer by Dr. Walter Paul, Champion of the Carolinas MR. Walter M. Paul is just back from Pine hurst where he carried the colors of the Meck lenburg Country Club into the semi-finals of the North and South championship, the ban ner event of the year on the Western Hemisphere. Mr. Paul, who is open champion of the Carolinas, was put out of the running by W. F. Dyer of Montclair, as the result of a sensational 25-foot . putt on the eighteenth hole, the Two years ago Mr. Paul was in the semi finals and he has duplicated the play this year. His game this Spring however was much better than that two years ago and likewise the field was much faster. Some idea of the degree of skill ex hibited by the Carolina champion is indi cated by the fact that he put out of the running two of the foremost golfers of the country before he reached the semi finals. These were Rodney Brown of Brookline and J. H. Schoolfield of Wee Burn, Stanford, Conn. In the Dyer match, Paul encountered a run of hard W i H WIJPAl Kir "11 (.3 .

There were proba bly 1,000 people standing about the home green and when the putt was made it created such a profound impression that the golfing enthusiasts gathered about could hardly believe their own eyes. It was such a shot as this that put the Mecklenburg man out of the game. He lost the match but made the round of 18 holes with a lower medal score than his oponent, therelative scoring being 78 for Paul and 79 for Dyer.

There were 178 of the foremost golfers of the country entered and for the Charlotte man to be one of the four in the semi-finals was a distinction indeed.
