THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK DOES ROUND IN SEVENTY I Professional Alec Ross Makes New Rec ord for Pinehurst Course. Perfect Oolf With Ion- Driving Deadly Approaching- and Itlar veloiin Putting- an Feature. A BRILLIANT golf feature of last week which will interest visiting golfers, was the lowering of the rec ord of the course from seventy-one to seventy by Professional Alec Ross in a four-ball scotch foursome with M. C. Parshall of Warren, Pa., against Dr. A. Carleton Potter of Boston, and Profes sional Donald Boss. Perfect golf in which there were no "ifs," was responsible for the score. Ross was driving over two hundred yards, his approaching was deadly and his putting little short of marvelous. The card is notable, principally owing to its utter absence from fluke shots, and the fact that four three's were made in succession. X .
