FINAL ROUND IN
MUM TOURNEY ON
HIGHLAND LINKS
Caddies Shoot Good Games and
Are Among First Four
Leaders.

Sixty-three players were to fight it
out today in the last eighteen holes
of play at the old Highland course in
the Times municipal golf tourney.
With thirty-six holes of the meet com
pleted the probable winner seems to
be among the first four or five golfers
as the leading players have played
consistent golf and hold a margin rel
the others almost insurmountable in
eighteen holes play unless something
extraordinary happens.
Youth seems to be having it's day
tn S season in the golf world and the
Times tourney is running true to form
in this respect. Three young players
are among the first four for thirty-six
holes. P. Sparks, a sharpshooting
caddy, leads the field with a score of
161. He has a one stroke advantage
over L. B. Schmutte, another fine
caddy player, and Butler. a South
Grove star. NJ. D. Miller. another
youth, is in fourth place with 167.
A Tough Course
The Riverside course which was ex-
pected to be more difficult for the
competitors to negotiate proved Mil
Ier's downfall. After shooting a 70 at
South Grove he took So on the more
difficult course and is six strokes away
from the best core.
The caddies are pulling for Sparks
and Schmutte, who have shown very
good golf. Both players turned in 79

most feared player in the meet. hot
at 81 each day and is in a position to
step out and win.
L. VI. Gasser is fifth with III, D..
Sullivan sixth with 172 and Johnny
Ferree seventh with IFS. Ferree went
10 pieces on the last nine at River

running.
