The Haights Putt Badly

The Haights Putt Badly
One OF the strongest teams, DR..
Haight and son, failed to get going
properly, as both are fine golfers, the
son only recently going TO the last
hole of the final round in the Inter-
scholastic championship at Nassau.
They were not putting well, and THIS
broke up any chance they might have
had. Another strong team, w. Fellowes
Morgan, sr. and jr., also mad one or
two bad holes that counted badly
against them.
Martin Littletcn and son should nave
had the first three holes in par for a
fine start, but three puts TO the green
set them back At the first hole, after
a straight drive by his father. young
Littleton raped fine iron shot 10
within twelve feet of the cup, but three
puts followed.
rho battle for third place was a
classic. FIRST James and Edward Bar
her. of Englewood, g veteran entry,
renorted with a net 70. Some time
afterward Thomas and Gustavus hlr-
BIZ. as the Kirby team, came IN with
1870. for another 10. Both teams
decided the atmosphere was trlhe
TOO steamy for further battle or con-

winning. D. c. Macy and his young
SON George. orly thirteen years old,
wore more thun pleased 10 cut 10

other cases where the sons were oovl-

poorer showing.
But there was one feature which car
ried far. In putting, you could Always
figure upon the older generation taxing
time and care, we'll knowing that puts
could be missed, even from two tee
ar less. Whereas, the youngsters mere
lv stepped up and raped away at the
hall with the apparent idea IN view
that il was impossible to miss putt.
Wide Variety of Ages
Another interesting feature was the
wide variety of ages. mere were sew
o,aI teams entered whose combined
ages were we'll under those of senior
mariners n other teams. Two OF the
youngsters were only twelve, while
Young Macy was but thirteen; whereas
the Kirbys' combined age was above
100. and the Treadwell and Barber
teams were fairly close alongside.
