he found trouble in laying his short
approaches near the hole. Even after
reaching the green, his putter was not
the obedicnt servant It should have
been in his hands.
There were one or two startling eX-
captions, however. At the first hole IN
the morning. against kayser. Here
shof landed his drive in the bunker
that guards the fairway. His second
barely got out of trouble and on his
third he was still some thirty feet
from the edge Of the green.
Kayser. who had been Keeping down
tho centre. was within easy putting dis
tancc Of the cup on his third and the
hole looked like an easy win for the
Scarsdaic man.
Just then. however. lIerreshoff did

grouped around the green. The Garden
City player lifted the ball clearly
over the intervening stretch of stubble
with jigcor. Striking the green. II
ran straight and true Tor the hole and
dropped IN.
Kaysor after that did what every.
body expected he would and missed
the hole by inches, giving Herreshoh
first blood.

HerreshoG Drove Well.
Herrcshof held the lead against Kay
scr throughout almost the entire
morning round. and was always favored
to win. even though the Scarsdale
golfer held after his famous opponent
couragcously.
Rarely il ever has Herreshof been
seen to better advantage with his
wooden clubs than to-day. His average
distance from the tee must have been
easily gao yards. Frequently II oX-

Course Is Criticised.
The course has come in for a lot Of
criticism. the greens being the ocea-
