bar unnatural pace. White stuck TO his
grs and bv coins out in 50 himself. turned
iahonc only ono down. Graham won the
M hole. thereby becoming two up, but
Mne won the eleventh and fifteenth.
ss~7ing tho match A line 4 at the sew
nieentn made the oakland player dormie.
AZ that point he made a mistake I'm judg-
zsni which probably cost him the match.
ne wind was at his back. and for fear of
irving into the bunker. which guards the
gsen White used spoon from the tee.
8s sliced the bali to an almost unplayable
3 in the rough. and the stroke wasted
here cost him the hole. az Graham, max
x no mistakes. won 10 in 4 TO o.
Both made tho round in a. which gives
a idea Of tho quality Of the golf PLAYED
