New-York tribune., 1921-09-21


With every favorite safely through,
lnefuding Willie Hunter, British cham
pisn, the most sensational golf of the
day fell to the lot of Bobby Jones, who
Rsuld have slaughtered any man in the
asld. In the forenoon round against
Clarence Wolff, st. Louis star, Jones
lad II, after missing twelve-inch
putt on the home green, where he was
then up and apparently in no mood
TO increase his advantage In the after
noon round he laid his approaches SO
close to the pin that he might have
easily played the seven remaining holes
IN even 3s. As it was, ne started
93-3, and then missed two-foot
putt for his at the 400-ysrd fourth.
He got his on the 4S0-yard fifth.
Had another two-foot putt for 8 ut
he sixth and closed out the battle
With ct the seventh, where Wolff
found himself II down with II to play.
Is It was, Jones played the twenty-five
Ssles in 7 under AS, murderous
pace when it is considered that in this
Mrade he missed at least four puts Of
tso feet OF under where his lead was
'a great that he had no particular de-
slrs to pile up heavier margin.
Those who followed the Jones-Wolf
contest were bewildered by the un-
amy accuracy Of the young Geor-
gan's approaches, mashie shots and
ieng irons Topping with deadly con-
siatency anywhere from 2 TO feet
away from the cup.
Gardner Had Hard Time
Bob Gardner had hard struggle to
sm by one hole from Clark Spiers, Of
seattie, the Pacific Coast star Offering
s'im opposition the entire route. He
sss IN no way dismayed when he found
amseif 3 down at the twentv-seventh
sfeen. His 8-foot putt for a on the
mas hole left Gardner with . 2-foot
put to hold his lead, and so move in
s2ainst Tommy Armour in the feature
Match on Wednesday.
Both Armour and Hunter, British
saasr'es, got by safely. Hunter stopped
oooser Bankard, veteran campaign
y py and s. full proof that he is
Iris ~ MS game and out to go some where,
s. sails Armour dropped Lee Steil. an
ssael seattle golfer, by 8 and 4. So
