The rough was lush with heavy grass and full- blossomed dandelions. Forty players made the rounds. Their posted handicaps ranged from six to .7. Some were optimistic enough 10 choose lower handicaps than their regular ones. Others al- lowed for the wind and selected fair-sized number to help them out. The rush to start at o'clock was so great that half the players began or the upper nine first. There on tho ridges, the wind blew gale from the southwest. From the tenth tee, the drive had to be made into tho wind. Only two par fours were made on this hole. At the other extreme they were matched by couple of eights. Scores ranged up to 53 on this side of the links.
 On the lower nine no one got par four on the first hole and sevens were quite frequent. On the long Fthird hole, a few par lives and one birdie were scored. The seventh proved to be sore trial to all the golfers but on the longer eighth par Was equalled by several players. with one scoring birdie four. A 6l top- ped the high scoring going out.
 In the welter of high scores two players pushed through from first tee to eighteenth green with accur- ate strokes that made them out standing in the days play.
