KEOKUK GOLFERS
PLAY AGAINST PAR
In Tom Morris Memorial Competition
They Found Themselves Up
Against Hard Propo-
sition.
MCFARLAND DOES BEST
After Being Nine Down First Round
He HaIved Four Holes the
Second Round-Not
Hole Was Won.

Keokuk golfers competing as a
team in the Tom Morris Memorial
Trophy competition yesterday, found
themselves UP against the most siren
uous proposition of their golfing ca
reers, when they attempted to play eff
fectively against par. To those not
familiar with the meaning of par for
hole in golf, it is easily explained.
Par is the number of strokes it would
take a player for each hole providing
he played perfect golf.
THE Keokuk team was 129 out of a
possible 144 holes down on par. The
best work of the day was done by c..
F. Mcfarland, who halted four of the
holes Following arc the results.
