somewhat to the right. On approaching
Lafferty got within two feet of the hole.

out in three, while the latter took two. On
the second hole the same conditions pre-
vailed. with the exception that Laherty
missed his put and it was halved.
Both men got good drives on the third
hole and approached well. but in putting
I-afferty Il little too strong. his ball
striking the opposite rim and bounding out.
Jenkins putted true. going out i'll three,
making the match even. On the fourth ball.
good drives ruled again. but Lafferty missed
a short putt, while Jenkins covered beau
tiful long and the latter assumed the
lead On the fifth Jenkins won by another
fine putt. The sixth was halved, while the
seventh and ninth also went to the Mary
lander, giving him four up at the turn. Mr..
