have been the winning putt. Miss
FishWick's mashie to the short
ninth was pin-high, and she took
a winning 3, becoming l up
again. Glenna was trapped from
the tee and her out was too
strong, a being the result.
Glenna promptly lost the tenth
and twelfth to become 3 down.
They we're long and straight off
the tenth tee, and both hit fine
second shots from the fairway.
However, Glenna'S approach went
we'll to the back of the green and
she three -putted to take losing 6.
She also sliced her drive at the
eleventh and missed the green
with her approach, but Diana was
in a trap with her second shot
and they halved the hole in SIS.
Gallery Cheers Pair
Another pair OF great shots
from the fairway had the gallery
cheering at the twelfth, although
most of the acclaim was for
Diana, who played her shot from
a bad lie. The latter got her
chip shot we'll up to the pin for
a 4, while Glenna'S stopped 10
feet away and she missed the
putt, losing with a 5. At the
thirteenth, Glenna's approach
stopped just in back of the green
and she took a putter for a run
up shot which just failed to sink.
Diana also trimmed the cup with
her approach putt and they took
half in As.
The BritOn was off the
fairway for the first time at
the fourteenth, but her reply
was to play q remarkable
spoon out of the rough to
the green to get a half in As.
Glenna'S braSSie second just
reached the near edge of the
green and her putt for win
failed to go down by a split
inch.
Three up playing the fifteenth

Glenna but sliced her brassie to
the rough. However. Glenna was
short with her wood shot and
ultimately they took a half in
! SIS.
Both hit the sixteenth green
with their tee shots but again
Glenna's putter betrayed her
She took three puts for a losing
4 and became 4 down. The
American smote long, straight
tee shot at the seventeenth, well
out beyond Diana's, but the lat

to the green and got another
half.
At the home hole. they followed
communicable drives with good
mashie pitches to the green
Diana'S being feet from the
flag. Glenna was 80 feet away
and again she three-putted for a

Easily Eliminated;
Here's a Tip

Here's a tip for winter
drivers.
If snow and sleet freeze on
your windshield, unfasten the
rear hook of your engine hood
and raise the hood slightly.
This will allow the heat from
the motor to be blown back
over the windshield and will
melt the frozen sleet.
Or, if you have an inside
heater in your car, a tube
from this heater to the wind
shield will work even better
and afford greater driving
