green and taking out his mashle he PLAYED
perfect chip shot that ran across the
green and into the cup. A par on the
eshtn and another on the ninth gave him
total of 30 strokes for the outgoing
Journey. and as Tom Anderson had man
aged TO get down putt for at the
eighth the best ball total was 20
Coming in Dyer failed to keep the fas,
pace that he had set himself. but hi.
start was 30 good that he could hardly
help cutting down the amateur record for
the course and he all but equalled the
profess nal record.
ON couple OF green's coming in his
putting was poor and cost him strokes
and on the home hole across the pond he
played his tee shot weakly and failed TO
get up the hill to the green. He man
aged TO get a 4 and finished with a 80
for the second nine. on the incoming
holes Anderson was OF assistance twice. at
the fifteenth and on the home green where
he made his 3. The best ball srore for
