major event in either country—
they have been outlawed by re
cent international ruling taking
effect January 1.
Friday, the first day of the
matches, was about the worst that
nature could have pulled out of
her pocket. After weeks of pretty
weather, the temperature dropped
and the skies opened. Despite the
rain and cold, the matches went
forward, trailed by a hardy gal
lery of some 3,000 fans with rain
coats and umbrellas.
Crowds and More Crowds
Saturday, a cold grey day, the
players rested or went to the Caf-
olina-Tennessee game at Chapel
Hill, where all had been invited.
Sunday dawned cool but bril
liantly fair, and the people start
ed coming. Their cars lined ev
ery lane and roadway in Pine-
hurst, filled the Country Club
parking area and were directed
into acres of nearby woods.
By tee-off time—1:15—^for the
second 18 holes, the gallery had
reached massive proportions. As
each pair moved from the first tee
it was followed by what looked
like the entire crowd—only just
as many were left behind, to fol
low the next. ■
OVily two pairs reached the
18th hole in the final play. As the
last players came in the "crowd
surged behind from all over the
course, thickening in minutes to
the density of a 5 o’clock subway
rush at Times Square.
Presentation of the Ryder Cup,
with informed speeches by PGA
officials and players, followed on
the putting green.
Total Cove;;age
The matches were probably the
[most thoroughly and -brilliantly
covered of any sporting event in
history. Stories and photos went
out daily by wire services and
wirephoto to newspapers all over
tl\e world. Radio (MBS network
vik WEEB) and television publi
cized every move of the players.
It was a happy and good-natur
ed event. Though the matches
occasionally became extremely
tense, the players never lost their
power to smile as they swung
down the fairways. Their friend
liness communicated itself to the
crowds, and all over the course
strangers smiled, spoke and com
pared notes on the matches and
their favorites.
Most popular spot as the chill
afternoon waned was the big tent
near the clubhouse where hot cof
fee and sandwiches were sold at a
rapid clip.
Victory Dinner
Sunday evening Pinehurst, Inc.,
was host to players, officials and
members of the press at a dinner
at the Pinehurst Country club.
