Ten-Foot Put Helps.

The sixteenth hole is short, scarcely
$50 yards and Ouimet pitched 10 the far
edge Of the green. His approach put
fell some ten feet shy of the hole and il
looked almost an even thing that he would
miss. There was never any doubt, how
ever. from the moment he touched the
ball about its ultimate destination. II
kept going as straight as the flight of an
arrow until it dropped into the cup.
wild cheer encouraged the Woodland
golfer. and as he went TO the tee to make
his drive for the seventeenth green the
gallery extended almost the entire length
OF the hole some go yards.
'He can't do H." remarked a man who
was addressing himself to Ray.
I'm not so sure about that It's on
the map, you know" observed the big
Briton. Hes really a fine golfer and
shouldn't be surprised at anything he
might bring off"
George Sargent, who was Ouimets
partner. got away a long ball, and the
amateur did almost as well. Ouimet
played the odd, full mashie beautifully
executed, straight for the pin. II struck
about fifteen feet short, and in the sodden
turf the rubber core barely managed TO
take one little bound. coming TO rest not
more than three inches from where it
struck. The ball was below the hole and
Ouimet knew that on the heavy green he
would have to give plenty Of force to the
stroke. Apparently oblivious to the thous-
ands of eyes directed on him, Ouimet ran
ha 60 loE h.,
back Of the cup with satisfying cnud.
The shout that went up as the ball dis
appeared could have been heard half a
mile away. Men cheered and waved their
hats; men who a few years before had
had this same lad carry their clubs, for
Ouimet learned the game as a caddie at
the Country Club.
Brilliant Play to Home Hole.
To the home hole he drove fine ball,
fully 30 yards. This still left him with
a long iron to get home. as the green
rises abruptly beyond the racetrack and
only three strokes for tie. His shot
was straight and true, but not quite far
enough. and the ball barely managed TO
carry the embankment 10 the edge of the
green.
Instead of putting Ouimet elected to
use his mashie for the third shot, shot
which meant the championship If he
. could pitch UP and run down.
The ball. however, fell short of the CUP
fully four feet and there was chance OF
his falling on the soggy green. one
could have heard a pin drop, the thou
sands holding their breath. as ouime'
took his stance for the put that meant a
tie or third place. Again displaying won
derful control Of his nerves. Ouimet stood
up boldly and ran the put down.
AS the ball disappeared in the cup the
crowd could not be restrained and rushed
on the green with roar. Before the
flushed golfer realized what was going on
they had him on their shoulders and were
CARRYING him 10 the clubhouse.

however. have tentatively arranged the

Ouimet Game to the Core.

With IS for ten holes. it was necessary
tfor him TO finish the last eight in two
|under As. and the task looked well nigh
impossible over the sOdden turf His
heart was big, however. his courage
istrong and his skill wonderful.
Pulling himself together, and without
thought apparently, OF what the loss of a
single stroke would mean. Ouimet made
the eleventh hole in a par 4. and followed
this up with a creditable at the twelfth.
To get back in sc. however, something
unusual had to be accomplished. and he
started to bring off the seemingly i'm
possible by hong a mashie shot from
off the thirteenth green for 8. He had
5 at the long fourteenth and good
at the fifteenth.
Every one in the gallery then realized
that TO tie the Briton Ouimet would have
70 make the last three holes in 10 strokes
possible. but not probable. Three years
ago when W. 6. Fownes, jr., defeated
Chick Evans in ;he semi-iinal round
of the national amateur championship
over this course. the Pittsburgh man
made that finish. and II was TO come

Boston. Sept BY one of the most
sensational finishes ever seen on a golf
course in this or any other country. Fran
els Ouimet. the Woodland amateur, who
is barely out Of his teens sprang into un-
dying golf fame here to-day by playing
TO a triple tie with Harry Vardon and Ed
ward Ray Englands greatest profession
ais in the national open golf champion

Country Club at Brookline.
Each returned a score of 304 for seven

lock the three will meet in an eighteen
hole play-off tomorrow morning at 10

II was the first time in the history OF
the game in the United States that an
amateur has risen to such heights, and il
matters not, in the minds of the thou
sands who saw Ouimets game finish this
afternoon. what the morrow may bring
forth. The end was easily the most thrill
ing and spectacular ever seen on golf
course in this country.
Toward the end of day of kaleido-
scopic changes during which first one and
then another looked like winner, the sit
Uation narrowed down TO a tie between
Nardon and Ray, with Ouimet only a pos.
sibility.
One Of the last to start, the young Mas.
