OF Corkram's was featured by sew
eral shots that were truly sensa-

McGeorge was four down playing

for he was on the green in two, while
Corkram was bunkered, with his ball
partly buried in the sand. Corkram
not only cot out on his niblick shot,
but placed the ball 15 feet from the
rim. and then gently urged it into
