CALLING ALL PEIS!> BRING ’EM TO SHOW AT GYMKHANA TODAY! Annual Exhibit of Kiddies* Treasured Livestock Will Fea ture Equestrian Program at Carolina Ring; Snappy Cara Planned. It's the kiddies' day to shine this afternoon when the third annual Pinehurst Pet Show and equestrian gymkhana is held in the riding ring at the Carolina Hotel. Lloyd Tate, whose cap able management of the .gym khanas has been , demonstrated on so many occasions, is calling all pets, and wants everyone to bring his favorite pet, be it an imal, fish or fowl, to vie for hon ors in the show. Over 60 pets were exhibited at last year’s show, including everything from an ox to a cat amount, which (we learned from Mr. Tate) is a type of wild cat and was brought over from Java. Winner of last year’s show was Joseph Murphy’s St. Bernard, Hurcuveen Buddy, who recently won further glories at the Pinehurst dog show, being voted best of breed. Mr. Tate reports that billy goats, cats, chickens, rabbits, dof^s and other beasties have been entered so far, including a goldfinch, a rare type owned by Miss Paola de Janze, and which is found only in Germany and France. The ' goldfinch was brought to this country by Miss ide Janze. There will be five prizes awarded from first to fifth place. Mr. Tate tells us confidentially that there will also be an extra supply of ribbons on hand for those indignant little chaps who disagree too heartily with the judge’s decision! Mrs. Harry Norris will be judge. The pet show will be the sec ond event on the program, pre ceded by the musical stalls. Third event will be the potato race, fourth, the ‘overalls, fifth the open jumping, and sixth a basketball game on horseback. The program will cover two hours, and there will be a rib bon race if time allows. Mr. Tate predicts that the basketball game will be a hotly contested match, *.

Sam Snead Made Gallant Last Round Effort, But His 67 Fell Short by Three v Strokes of Catching up with Indomitable Leader. BYRON NELSON THIRD By ROBERT E. HARLOW • Ben Hogan was ready. This was clearly indicated, not in a crystal ball, but in the figures he has amassed since the first of the year in thirty three rounds of competitive golf Ben had' been plastering rub ral America from California to* Pinehurst with sub-par golf, and arrived here with a stroke average of 71.63 for the 33 rounds. He had one stretch of golf reading 71-68-71-66-69-66/ 73-66. No golfer is a sure thing in the "fast fields which partici pate today, but when a golfer has been averaging better than aji -his . companions,. save ope* ... over a long stretch, he is ready to win at any moment. This was the position Hogan was in when he checked in at the Pine hurst Country Club for the North and South. Then he boxed the ears of our championship course with a 66, arid went into a three stroke lead. Then he came right back with a 67, and took a firmer hold on the 38th North and South title, with a seven-stroke lead, j Ben faltered ip the third round, when he had a mild case of the jitters, but his 74 cost him only one stroke to the field*. This brought Hogan into the final round with a total 6f 20T and a six stroke lead over Sara Snead and Gene Sarazen, his nearest opponents. -Six strokes in the capable hands of a player such as Hogan should be suffi cient, and it was, although Snead played a great 67 in "his final effort, and Ben needed all he had to hold ton. He won, finally, ' by three strokes, with his new tournament record of 277. It was Snead’s 67 which put the zip into the concluding chapter of the fine old golfing ) classic. This score was so low that it prevented Hogan from . “breezing” through his final round t;<f a sure-thing victory. He had to play for it all the way to the 72nd tee, when with a six to win, he could relax, confident that only the prover bial “broken leg** could rob him, of a well earned title and $1,000 in cash. The most dramatic scenes in the final round were acted out on the thirteenth and subsequent holes. Hogan learned after a crushing drive at 13 that Snead was in with a 67, and a 280 total and that he needed to finish in even par to win. That 67 hit Hogan a' terrific blow. He had a very simple second shot to the 13th green, but he faltered. The stroke was not firm enough pnd the ball, with no punch behind it, fell on the embankment short of the (Continued on page twb)
