STEVENSON picked up stroke at the
fourteenth. and Pitts GROWING blow
came at the short sixteenth, where he
underplayed his pitch and the ball

the championship, for both STEVENSON
and Pitt finished with a brace of As,
giving STEVENSON the title by three
strokes.

John G. Shorey of Bannockburn and
j. M. Hunter of Indian Spring. who
were tied with STEVENSON, at 149. for
first place at the conclusion Of the first

shanked iron shots, took 81 for. his
third round, while Hunter went up to

Stevinson's winning total Is the low

one stroke over even 75s for four rounds

no reason why the scores should not be
good. The weather was perfect, and the
golf course was carefully groomed and
in the pink Of condition. The second
place tie between Pitt and Roesch was
won by Roesch, for Pitt could not play
today because of business reasons, and
the rules regarding ties of the District
Golf Association provide that ties must
be played off on the next succeeding
day after the tie.
