his overwhelming victory of yes terday. He missed holeable puts of three or four feet on a dozen greens, while Jamieson never failed to get down in two. Jamieson play ed fifteen holes in even fours.
 Jamieson's deadly putting sealed Jones fate on the 18th green, where the Scotch lad made 8 long putt from the edge of the green dead to the lip of the cup for a four. Jones' putt of equal length from the other side ran yard past the hole.
 '"Thatll do," said Bobby and Jamieson picked up his ball, giving Jones half in fours.
 The American was the first to congratulate the victor. The crowd stampeded onto the green with rous- ing cheers, men hoisting Jamieson to their shoulders and he was carried away toward the clubhouse.
 Jamieson was as steady as a rock. Although it was his first champion ship tournament, he played like a veteran, and fortune favored him, once, at the short thirteenth, where Jones had the last chance to cut his opponents lead but got only a half in threes, Jamieson's tee shot landed high on the steep hillside above the ledge on which the green is placed
 He clipped out, and the shot headed straight for Q deep trap, but rolled along 8 narrow ridge Of turf between the two bunkers onto the green and stopped dead to the pin. Jones missed his first putt and sank the next.
 There was not the slightest at tempt to establish an alibi for Jones, but in explanation of his slump from the supreme heights of yesterday, other members of the Walker cup team say he caught cold last night and suffered Q stiff neck this morn- ing. He spent an hour with mas seur before going to the first tee.
