THE OUTLOOK PUBLISHING CO., Pinehurst, North Carolina AN INFALLIBLE MASHIE (Concluded from page one) tance; a bare failure. Clapp 's exhibi tion of star gazing on 14th magnificent, but was it golf? Clapp still two up, which he almost immediately made three on the 14th hole, by a paralyzing putt of fif teen feet or more, for another three. loth. The last stand of Baltusrol. The more creditable last stand in that it was made from the abysmal pit. From the pit to the cup in four shots was good going, and called for the ap proval of the multitude. This made Allen 5, and Clapp, by a thunderous spoon shot out of the wilderness nearing the green in two. But five was good. It has been demonstrated that with very little effort a man can take almost any number of putts. And so Chevy Chase returned once more to the historic 17th, this time driv ing dormie two. And the tale is soon told. It is told in three moves. One a line drive as true as a transit could have made it, rolling gently right by the pin. Two laying it dead. Three easing it in . Four, three rousing cheers . J. .11. Clapp wins the President's Trophy in the Annual Autumn tournament, three and one.

It was in the first round, in which Frank Gates was leading R. R. Sharman, of Youngstown, down a hot 38 pace to the turn. They had come to the fifth hole, which, as everyone knows, is a long par five. 'carry. Sharman 's third shot found him a long mashie from the green a hundred and fifty yards or more. Gates, in two. was iust a triflo in front of him. Well, sir; I wish to state that it is officially recorded that Shar man took a full swing at that ball and drove it straight as a die into the cup for a birdie four. Cheers and laughter. But what will you say when I tell you that Gates stepped up as confident as a Japanese juggler and lifted his own red honor, and put it right in on top of the other, for a three, a win and an Eagle. What these two want carry putters for is hard to understand. Meanwhile Howard Phillips had come out of his trance. A 47 on the first nine had eliminated him from the big game. He took it out on the Consolatoin. Prin cipally on John M. Scott, of Charlotte. Scott is no easy meat. He ran only one shot behind for the medal, and plays well down in the eighties. But Phillips changed a 47 to a 37 without notice, and came in on the crest of the wave, six up. In the semi-final round Sharman fared no better, while Jock Bowker, the bunkershot artist who had come off victorious in his bout with Georgfc Watts of Durham, was fortunate to reach the 14th in the finals. The story of the Second division is the story of the victorious progress of Lee Steinfeld, of Fairview. In the final round he discovered Harry Waring, fly ing the local colors, who had already put one Fairview champion into the discard, and ascended to the dizzy heights over the remains of J. D. Armstrong, of Buffalo, and A. E. Adams, the Youngs town expert. Steinfeld 's progress had well nigh been delayed by C. B. Hud son, whose spectacular career on the links last year still lingers in memory, and by W. B. Merrill, of the Country Club, Brookline, who lost on the 17th. Waring was shooting about four points over his ambition, and so had to be con tent to see the porringer go to alien fields on the 16th hole. Hudson at tached the Consolation without serious discussion . R. J. Breed, of Swampscott, had a hard time with the old timers in the third. James Barber held him down on the first round to an even game all the way to the seventeenth, and only reluct antly relinquished visions of the trophy on the final green. I. F. Hill, of Dur ham, fresh from a close victory over II . T. McClearn, Jr., of Norfolk, was un able to withstand the onset in the sec ond round and P. B. O'Brien gave up the ghost in the semi-final. This left Breed to face J. D. C. Rumsey in the last ditch, and he took the number of our old friend 2 up. Ferrin frightened all other aspirants out of the Consolation prize in this sec tion.
