PARTRIDGE WINS
And THEN LOSES
ON TUXEDO LINKS
Slump Comes After Extra
Hole Match Against
James r. Hyde.
POOR PUTTING MAKES
HIM PREY FOR MOORE
Victor Plays In Good Form
and OutcIaSses Rival on
the Greens.

Dwight Partridge, Of Bedford, played
/ the part Of the victor and yanqulshed
Yesterday in the course of the second
and semi-fnal rounds Of the tourna-
ment on the links Of the Tuxedo Golf
/ Club. Early in the day he defeated
James K. Hyde, Of South Shore, in a
gruelling twentv-hole match, but later
fell before the prowess Of Paul Moore
Of Morris County. Moore vii, meet
Gardiner W. White in the thirty-six
hole decisive test on Monday.
white first disposed Of Cornelius s
Lee, the Tuxedo champion, in match
that went 20 the home green. Although
White was usually the man 10 gain a
| lead. Lee never permitted him TO get
further away than one hole. Lee neGo-
tiated a spectacular stymie on the sew"
enteenth for a half. but he lost the
/ eighteenth through an overapproach.
Later in the day Whites opponent
was &. Tiffany Richardson, another OF
the home players. Richardson was on
his mettle, and the pair was all even at
the turn, but White was not to be de-
MED and won by a 2 and margin.
The match of the day was the Par
tridge-Hyde affair. II looked bad Tor
the Bedford man when he developed an
Indifferent putting streak on the first
two holes and lost them both. Although
Partridge never failed to take ad-
vantage of his opponents mistakes, ne
could not reduce the margin by the
time the turn was reached, and 1t was
not until the fifteenth green that Par
fridge could square the match. lie
had to get a 3 there to do it.
Each won one of the next two holes,
and failure to take advantage OF his
opportunities on the home green by
HYDE contributed more than anything
else to his loss Of the match
Partridge needed 3 TO get to the
green. while Hyde was safely on in z,
his ball lying within ten feet OF the
cup. Partridge was dead TO the pin
on his first putt, but Hyde, having for
the hole and the match, took 3, failing
on one Of eighteen inches. Playing
perfectly, the Bedford man won the
second extra hole.
Evidently the strain Of the early
match was too much for Partridge
for he seemed TO have lost his putting
touch completely against Moore.
Through Indifferent work on the greens
he found himself 2 down at the NTH,
and although he was able to draw
he proceeded to fritter away whatever
chances he had at the short game.
After driving the eleventh green he
had fairly long putt for :, and pro
ceeded TO take three tries. Again, at
the thirteenth. he performed similarly.
Meanwhile. Moore was on his game.
and when the match was finished on
the seventeenth he had a I coming to
him for 76.
