try Club tournament a week ago. MAIN
tanned an untarnished record In golf con-
tests of the card and pencil order when
he defeated Percy w. Kendall, the far
driving Deal linksman, to-day in the play
off for the qualifying trophy in the spring
tournament of the Lakewood Country
Club. The playoff was conducted SIM
ultaneously with the second round Of
match play. and Dean. besides taking
the match by up, led the medal scoring
by two strokes, with round of SO.
Thanks to a fine second nine holes Of
So. Dean had tied Kendall yesterday at
S6. Naturally enough. it was considered
tidbit by the gallery when this pair of
long hitters dropped together in the sec
ond round bracket, and more than ever
so when they agreed to make 1t a double
header and settle both medal and match
play differences at the same time.
Hard hitting there was aplenty and in
teresting enough match play golf, hut

standpoint, for here Kendall squared tho
match and went three strokes ahead,

Deal man allowed Dean to square the
medal play at one fell swoop on the
seventeenth with against Z, and
to pick up his winning lead of two
strokes with a par against a on
the home hole. Dean on the last green
had six foot putt for 8, but a birdie
was not necessary.
Kendall's finish in this contest was
at odds with the display which he had
given in the morning against G. N.
Phillips Of Atlantic City, for he won
by and l after losing the first four
holes. In that same round Dean elimi-
