The honors Of the second day easily be-
longed to Kirkby. the state champion
breaking the course record. with H. In

r. b. Schley. OF the home club, and had
It not been for q weak finish klrkby
would have broken the professional mark
Of Il
Fine length from the tee. combined with
excellent direction. kept the Englewood
man out OF trouble most OF the time. and
had Il not been for missed puts on the
sixth and ninth green's he might have
gone out in SO. As It was. his "a to the
turn represented exceptional golf. and
when ne reeed of the next six holes IN
two under IS II looked as II he might
get q SO.
on the seventeenth green the state
champion missed a put OF less than
yard. and he then proceeded to make
hash OF the home hole, overpiaying the
green, hitting a tree coming back ana
missing a put so that the hole cost MIN
6 lie had a 3 there in the qualifying
round. Even so. his p was stroke bet
ter than the mark made by Travers the
day before.
The new record card was as follows:
