jJpAGE THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK 7 1 SILVEH FOILS III Ell SCOIIK Sir. Ilnrd Makes Bet Score for the Sea oh Mrs. J. V. Hurd of Pittsburgh, who as Miss Dorothy Campbell, held all the championships in sight, has been awarded the Silver Foils trophy for the best il ringer ' score made during the present season. The Number One Course was selected as the test round and scores made in regular 18 hole match play were alone eligible for the record. Here is Mrs. Hurd's ringer card, show ing her best ball score on each hole of the course. It should be noted that some of Mr3. Hurd's best playing has been done in tournaments and matches played on the other courses at Pinehurst and that credit for low figures achieved on such other courses is of course not reprsented in the following card: ball tied or excelled the best ball score of each of her 17 competitors. In other words, her card represents in itself the best ball score of all 18 players! twelve holes were made by Mrs. Hurd in par; five under par; and there was only one, the loth, for which one over par was required. Of the five holes negotiated under par, Mrs. Hurd was the only player to make the 6th in two, or the 14th in three, or the 16th in 3. Mrs. Palmer joined Mrs. Hurd in making the 3rd in four, and Miss Helen Andrews of Akron shared the 11th with Mrs. Hurd in 2. The 505 yard 17th was made in five by three of the 18 players Miss Elinor Gates of the Nassau Country Club, Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Hurd. No (layer, man or woman, ama teur or professional, has been able to improve on Mrs. Hurd's two for the 6th and 11th. The only hole made in one at Pinehurst this season is the 9th on the NUMBER ONE COURSE Hole No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Yards 353 380 437 357 420 201 172 ' 334 410 Women's Bogey 5 6 6 6 6 5 4 5 6 49 out Bogey 4 5 5 5 5 4 ' 3 4 5 40 out Par 4 4 5 4 4 3 3 4 4 35 out Mrs. Hurd's Best Ball 4 4 4 4 4 2 3 4 4 33 out Hole No. 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 IS Yards 325 153 353 192 375 403 360 505 1S9 Women's Bogey 5 4 5 5 6 6 5 7 4 47 in Bogey 4344.55 4 6 338 in Par 4 3 4 3 4 4 ' 4 5 3 34 in Mrs. Hurd's Best Ball 4 2 4 3 3 5 3 5 3 32 in SUMMARY Women's Bogey Bogey 494796 403878 The record on the Number One Course is 68 and is held by Alec Boss, the well known professional, who won the North and South Open Championship last year. Phil Carter has done it in 70, and in practice play in 69. Mrs. Hurd has been playing at Pine hurst through the greater part of the season and comparisons of her record with those made by other well known women players would be unprofitable, as some players who might have 'worked down their score to something like Mrs. Hurd's figures by playing throughout a number of weeks, did not enter the com petition; others started too late to arrive at low scores, and others abandoned the contest when it was seen that there was no earthly chance of overtaking Mrs. Hurd's figures. It may however be men tioned that of the 17 other players whose best ball figures were placed on record in this competition, none came nearer than 14 strokes to Mrs. Hurd's 65. The fol lowing tied at 79 for second place: Mrs. Guy Metcalf, of the Agawam Hunt, Providence; Mrs. Spencer Waters, New York, Apawamis; and Mrs. Theron R. Palmer, Erie Golf Club. Miss Priscilla Beall, Uniontown C. C, sister of Ned Beall, winner of the April Tournament, was third in 80. The first three named are first divsion players, and Miss Beall also arrived at first division honors in the recent North and South. The most remarkable feature in Mrs. Hurd's card is the fact that at each and every one of the 18 holes her best Par 353469 Mrs. Hurd 's Best Ball 333265 Number Two Course, achieved in one by Philip Carter and by James Wilson, the professional. Mrs. Hurd's threes on the 14th and 16th, unique so far as this contest is concerned, represent still more remark aide playing than the more spectacular twos on the short holes. The cup is about 1100 feet distant from the tee in oach case, and to arrive on the green in two is a feat which few women players can hope to equal.
