that OF John Farrell, Gene Sarazen and
William Creavy. all of them Westchester
born and bred. For instance, there was
George Kcrrigan, the young professional
of White Beeches, who led the morning
play with 10 and qualified nicely with
14S. Then j. Turnesa, the Fairview as
sistant. made 70 and 7S for $50 and +.
r. Decker of Knollwood carded 70, 73-
1852, which was the deadline OF the quail
tying.
After the soaking the course had re-
ceived 1t was felt this morning that the
scoring would be higher. The leading
total was two strokes above that made
by Hagen on Tuesday. while Hagens
aggregate again was a few strokes over
that OF Hutchison, who blazed the trail
at the opening Of the party on Monday.
The average Of playy. however. remained
about the same all the way through and
this notwithstanding the changes that
have been wrung on the course by the
variations in the weather.
Hagen's TOwnsman Gets lag.
Macdonald led his field by two
strokes. the next best being the las
totals of Willie Melhorn of Shreveport.
La. Eddie Town Of Channopin. Pa. :
Ned NJ. Kenna of Rochester, who doubt
less was playing under the inspiration
derived from coming from Walter

Emmett French, who captained the
American professional team of st. An

Staten Islander, Tom Boyd of Fox Hills.
Boyd and O'Hara had decided to let the
open championship of Staten Island
| hinge on the result. 1t was a dour
f-struggle between the Orange and the
Green. Belfast led Dublin at the out
set, when Boyd carded II in the morn
ing against O'Hara's 76; but the posi-
tions were reversed later in the day
and the two friendly enemies have now
agreed to play It of In the champion

1t is something of coincidence that
when O'Hara scored his 2. 8, in the
afternoon he was duplicating Poyd's
morning play for the same holes y
was really remarkable round. that u
turned in by the Fox Hills man. Boyd
sank puts of from ten to twelve feet
on each Of the sixth. seventh and ninth
and got out IN "a. Coming back he began
to reel off a wonderful string OF fours
eight of them altogether, and single
five at the seventeenth. The point OF
all this is that Tom was bunkered al
the twelfth. thirteenth, fourteenth and
fifteenth. Only one Of these. the thir-
teenth, is a par 9. But then verythins

In the afternoon Boyd scored another
birdie g. this time at the thirteenth.

first two days. Toward the end Of tine
day there was quite rush to get In out

charges in this direction was made by
y. O. Hart Of Marietta. Ohio. who
smashed his morning record by twelve
strokes with 10 and made II with not

Hunter Registers Afternoon 10.
Another afternoon 20 was registered
by Willie Hunter. the British amateur
star, who thus led all the amateurs in
the qualifying play with his total OF

around in rs. When Evans qualified on
Monday he had 151. Then on Tuesday
GuIlford Wright and Jones each totaled
145, Eddie Held 147 and John q. Ander-
son $50.
