BALTIMORE, September 14-With
a record-smashing exhibition of golf, in
which he shot the outgoing nine in 80
and covered Is holes in six under par,
Francis Ouimet Of Boston, the defend
ing champion. today administered a
spectacular drubbing to George j. Voigt,
New York favorite, and 5, in the first
round Of the United States amateur
championship.
Ouimet buried Voigt under an
avalanche of brides in one Of the
greatest shot-making exhibitions in his
tory. The champion holed puts rang
ing from few inches to 20 feet on five
holes, the first, third. fourth, sixth and
seventh. He got down a difilcult flve-
putter on the ninth.
Ouimet's 80, the lowest scoring splurge
in the history of the national cham
pionship, surpassed the best previous
ninehole mark of 81, registered by
Bobby Jones in the finals against
Chick Evans in 1927.
The Bostonian had six brides and
narrowly missed three others as he
welded a magic putter and iron.
Voigt. only one over par himself for
the l3 holes, was overwhelmed.
Major Upsets Lacking.
There were no major upsets in the 16
first-round matches as the field squared
of for the second 18-hole round.
Next to Ouimet's dazzling exhibition,
Charley Seayer, Stanford foot ball star,
gave the most impressive performance
BY negotiating the first nine in 80, three
under par. and eliminating Johnny
Robins Of Portland, Greg. and 4.

Republicans turned today from
disappointment over Democratic
victories in Maine to renewed ef-
forts to win the national elections
on November 8.
In view of the disaster which
met the Maine Republican candi-
dates supporting the eighteenth
amendment, it does not appear
that the G. o. P. is likely to stress
the dry cause. President Hoover,
who in his acceptance speech de-
clared himself for revision of the
eighteenth amendment so wet
States might again become wet,
has set the pace for the national
campaign anyhow, despite the
adherence to the eighteenth
amendment proclaimed by his
running mate, Vice President
Charles Curtis.
Wires Chairman Sanders.
The need for an intensive Republican
drive in the next eight weeks, culmi-
mating in the presidential and congress
sional elections, was emphasized in a
telegram sent by President Hoover to
Chairman Everett Sanders Of the Re-
publican National Committee. The
President said that the result of the
Maine election imposes need for re-
newed and stronger effort that the peo-
pie may fully understand the issues at
stake"
Mr.. Sanders in telegram to the
President minimized the results in
Maine and declared that the State un-
doubtedly would vote for Hoover presi-
dental electors in November.

in New York took Immediately after 1t

carried Maine and their victory had

ness recovery If the Democrats are
