It was the tightest kind of match from beginning to end. with both men playing golf of high caliber. Beautiful tee shots, long irons. per feet approaches and deadly putting featured the play. At the fourth hole Dave was two up. That was the only time during the match when more than q hole separated the brothers. Seven holes were halved,
 Hole by Hole Play
 Both were short of the 200 yard mark at the first hole with Dave's ball in the rough. He played out with a brassie but did not reach the green. Clarence played long shot with number one iron but the strong northeast wind which blew throughout the match held the ball back from reacing the green. He clipped ftNe feet past the cup. Dave took three puts and the hole was halvcd when his brother failed to get his first putt, 5-5.
 Two good drives and Clarence was just short of the green. Dave was three feet from the pin on his ap- proach. Clarence oycrran the cup and Dave won the hole with birdie three. 3-4
 On the 54s yard third hole both h3d long straight tee shots. Dave played a good brassie shot while his brother shot long iron.
 Each was short on his approach but both clipped close to the hole and sank their butts for half. 5-5.
 Doth were short of the brook at the third on their tee shots and in the middle of the fairway rlar- ence was on 20 feet above the hole in the midst of the top soil dress ing which covered part of the green. Dave was four feet from the cup on his second. Clarence had little chance to sink his putt but ran it close enough to the hole to get par four. Dave sank his putt for a birdie. 3-4 Dave was 2 up.
 The 'break of the game" came on the water hole. Dave got a good tee shot but Clarence's drive was topped and struck in the water. It bounced out and ran straight up the fairway to the 200 yard mark. If it had stayed in. it would have cost a stroke and distance. q penalty that would have lost the hole and made Clarence three down. As it was he won the hole with a par when Dave went over the green on his approach. As it was, Dave laid his brother a partial stymie but Clarence holed his putt. 4-5.
