PITT HAS 90 In WINNING
CHEVY CHASE GOLF TITLE
Defeats Stevinson, and 2, After Beating Mccarthy
in Semi-Final, With Card That Ties Mark-Only
Two Over Par for "a Holes.

STEVENSON made an indifferent pitch to
the green. Pitt won the sixth with a
par by laying chip shot dead from
below the green after Stevinson had
failed to hit his iron second.
Up to this point Pitt had not missed
a shot and was exactly par. He made
his first error at the seventh. where he
took thre puts and enabled Stevin-
son, who had put his second shot over
the green, to get half. STEVENSON holed
a 10-footer for half in at the long
eighth and lost good chance to win
the ninth by putting his second shot
in bunker at the right corner OF the
green after Pitt had hooked into the
woods. They halved In 4s leaving Pitt
4 up. Pitt put his tee shot in the trap
behind the green at the tenth, and
Stevinson won the hole. after missing
his tee shot, by holing l5-foot putt FOR
as.
Match Ends in Rain.
But Pitt came right back to win the
eleventh, holding 20-footer for birdie
3, with Stevinson's bid for the lying
close to the hole. Pitt should also have
won the twelfth. but he missed a 4
footer for a 3 after great niblick shot
to the hole. On the thirteenth tee a
rainstorm broke, and they halved the
hole in Is, neither reaching the green
from the tee. STEVENSON won the four
teenth, when Pitt put his second shot In
the ditch in front Of the green. That
left Pitt 3 UP and to go. and they
halved the fifteenth In SIS, leaving the
Manorite dormie 3 up. He settled the
issue in decisive fashion by holing a
downhill putt for birdie on the six
teenth.
Pitts victory marked the third sue
cessive year that a graduate of the pub
lie links has won the Chevy Chase tour
ney. Voigt won in 1926 and 1927.
