MISS WETHERED QUITd
GOLF TO GO FISHING.

NEWCASTLE, County Down. Ire
land, April 29.--Joyce Wethered has
become so keen on salmon fishing
that she is paying little attention To
golf, and there seems to be little like
lihood that she can be persuaded to
take part in the women's open cham
pionship to he held here in May.
Miss Wethered's game has been
altered slightly since she was active
in competitive golf. She now swings
slightly outside the ball to make il
run. Most players make a quick
hook when they do this. but Miss
Wethered manages to keep in the cen
ter of the fairway.
Cecil Leitch. who now holds the
open championship, is now in excel

%HE vagaries of golf were never

close to the hole at the eighteenth. he
pulled his iron shot. leaving him, as
he thought, but one shot to tie for
the medal. His chip over the bank

believing he had lost his chance to
tie, he carelessly putted the stroke
that might have tied him with Nc
Aleer and with the IS made later by
Maurice J. Mccarthy. After he had
finished and walked off the green, he
