unmindful Of his plight. He smashed
q beautiful tee shot to the green on
the eighth hole. Hutchison's ball
caught trap here. But, using his re-
| liable old spade, the colorful Jock
| pitched his second high into the air
and watched it drop dead ten feet be-
yond the pin.
"oh!" exclaimed the crowd in cho-
rus as Sarazen's long approach putt
lpped the tin. However, Jock missed
his putt and Gene was right back in
the running again.
Great Iron Shot Draws Applause
Both pulled their drives to the rough
from the ninth tee. But Sarazen's
landed in pit. He was squarely q
picture as he took his stance with his
head and shoulders just showing above
the surface Of the fairway. His size,
though, didn't in any way cramp his
style. He banged an iron shot out Of
that trap that landed short Of the
green and brought scream from the
gallery,
His approach ran eight feet past the
hole and he missed the putt for a win.
However, Sarazen was able to square
the match at the tenth hole, where
| Hutchison pulled long iron shot to
the rough at the left of the green.
The kid pitched his mashie shot to
within eight feet of the pin at the
eleventh hole, but missed the putt.
The twelfth was the hole that showed
the stuff Sarazen is made of. Both had
perfect drives on this hole, which
measures COL yards. The approach to
the green is fast and narrow, traps
guarding the gateway on both sides
Hutchiscn, using his brassie, sent a
long, high, curling shot straight to the
green, the ball stopping short of the
velvet. That particular shot on such a
difficult hole at this stage would have
zen smashed low brassie straight for
the pin and went up to the green to
find the bail ten feet below the hole
and directly on the line. His putt for
an eagle 3 stopped on the brink of the
tin.
The thirteenth, short hole, practi-'
cally decided the issue. Sarazen's tee
shot fell into trap on the left. Hutch
ison's ball skidded into the trap on the
right. Sarazen pitched over the green
and Hutchison failed to get out on his
first attempt. The champion finally
won the hole with a a.
At the fourteenth Hutchison dropped
his second dead, ten feet from the hole.
Sarazen's was fully as good, and from
the fairway 1t looked as if his ball was
inside Hutchison's. The cagy Scot
didn't think so, and Bill Fownes
stepped out from the gallery and meas
ured the distance. It was found that
Sarazen was away.
One Fine Putt After Another
The boy Immediately walked up
and sank his putt to the roar of the
a. oh
ball into the cup and the Allegheny
hills shook with the cheer that greeted
that bit of play.
Hutchison caught trap on his Sec
ond at the next hole, but made beau
ti1ul recovery. "Great shot, jock said
Gene as he bent over his putt. The
hole was balved in As. Still the most
spectacular shots were yet to come.
On the l6th hole Sarazen, using an
IRON, smashed n perfect shot to the
green. The ball rolled to within six
inches Of the cup. Hutchison's spoon
shot rolled to the lower edge Of the
green. From there Jock made grand
attempt to sink his approach. If YOU
don't think the Hutch was working un-
der strain you should have seen him
jump about four feet into the air as the
ball rolled over the edge of the cup.
AT the next hole Sarazen pulled his
tee shot into the rough and Hutchison
caught trap. Sarazen laid his ap-
proach absolutely stone dead and az
Hutchison slid down into the nit, hs
exclaimed "Well, Gene, we'll have one
last try anyway" He blasted his shot
onto the green, then scrambled out and
warmly shook the hand of his game,
little conqueror.
