Anderson and Kirkby Win
With Sensational Golf

3. That made the match all square, and
the next two holes were halved. though
for moment Ii seemed as II kirkby and
Anderson would win the seventeenth.
Travers topped his drive there. and
only getting half way to the green on
his second shot. was out OF II. Marston
sliced trif,e, his ball bringing up at the
edge of the brook. He was half stymied
by tree, but an excellent recovery en-
abled him to get to the far edge OF the
green. Both Anderson and Kirkby were
nicely home on their second shots, and
Kirkby had putt for a 8. which he
missed. Marston on his long try laid
the ball dead and halved in 4.
Travers Has n Bit of Luck.
To the home hole Travers after an
Indifferent drive went for the green on
his second shot. He failed to carry the
bunker. but the ball luckily bounded
over. coming to rest on the high ground
beyond. few yards short OF the green.
Many expected to see Jerry pitch UP
close to the pin from there. but he under
played this shot, the ball only going half
way.
The other three golfers were practi-
cally hole high on their seconds, but
Marston apparently took his eye OF the
WALL and failed 10 get anywhere on his
third shot, Anderson overran the flag
about eight feet and then Kirkby laid
his bah scarcely two feet from the cup.
He didn't have to get his 4, as Ander-
son rolled his putt In in good shape
Although he took AZ TO go out. Kirkby
came back like a wild horse. In 35. two
strokes better than par. He had II for

After trailing for fourteen holes John
G. Anderson and Oswald Kirkby drew
level with their opponents in four ball
golf match at the Arcola Country Club
yesterday and then won on the home
green. They defeated Jerome y. Travers
and Max Marston by the narrow margin
OF l up. This match was for the benefit
OF the homecoming wounded soldiers and
makes the fourth of its kind since the
latter part OF August.
Before the contestants left the first tee
the entertaining club had guaranteed
800. but 1t was said last night that the
total amount would exceed that, the es-
innate being at least $1,000.
Marston began well by winning the
first hole. a 420 yarder, His second shot
landed the ball within fifteen feet Of the
flag and then the Baltusrol man rolled
In the putt for 3. Incidentally that
was the only putt OF any length that
Marston holed during the round. At the
second hole Travers did the honors. The
length Ia 400 yards. and jerry reached
the green's edge on his second shot His
chip was 80 deadly that the ball came
within an ace OF sinking for a 8. but he
won in 4. Both OF the opposing players
got into trouble.
That made Travers and Marston up
and nothing happened to change that
lead during the remainder OF the out
ward journey. At the sixth hole TraVers
got a half in with the others, after
being in trouble, In fact, he needed four
shots to reach the green, and then sank
the putt Both Kirkby and Anderson
had got home on their seconds, but
neither could get better than 8.
The eighth hole Is 5l5 yards. and
Marston should have won that as his
third shot left him hole high about
twenty feet to the left OF the flag. His
I approach putt, trlfe down hill. over
ran tho cup, and then he missed the
short one coming back, although the dis
lance was less than yard, All got Ss
at the short ninth hole, so that Travers
and Marston stu found themselves up
going down the hill TO No. 10.
| After As there the sequence OF halves
was broken by Kirkby, who won the 1856
yard eleventh In 2. His tee shot left
him only a trihe more than clubs
