BY DAVIS ]. WALSH

KENWOOD COUNTRY CLUB,
Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. IL.
Ernie Caldwell, a comparatively
obscure juvenile from Baltimore,
this morning gave the field
something to shoot at when he
scored a 72 in the second half
Of the National Amateur golf
championships qualifying round.
The performance staked Caldwell
to a two-day total of 146 for the
medal, the youth having a 36
going out and coming home with
the same score.
Here he had only two bad
holes, one being the fifteenth,
where he took buzzard 5. The
other eight holes were played in
conventional pars.
Caldwell's card:
in....... Ill.,: 5 1 5 4-S6-72-14S
The completed 36-hole scores at
this juncture made Caldwell look
great by comparison, H. L.
Weatherwax having another 30,
for total of 160; Don Armstrong,
Aurora, ILL.,, a 78, for 1856; Reyn-
olds Smith, Dallas, a 73, for 153,
and R. M. Grant, Hartford, Conn.,,
a rs, for $50.

At this juncture Denmar Miller,
Des Moines, Iowa, came in with
a 70, which added to his "a OF
yesterday put him in second place
with lat. He was followed i'm
mediately by Eugene Homans,
Englewood. N. j., with q rs, which
with his 73 yesterday placed him
third with 148.
At the end of nine holes
Charles Seaver, by consistently
outdriving Johnny Goodman, had
81, one over the perfect figure,
while Goodman came to the turn
with 38.
Seaver was in the rough sew
eral times, but was able to blast
out and then get down.
At the same point, Lawson Lit
tie, San Francisco, had a 38 to
add to his "a of yesterday and
was going along easily, well
within his best speed. George
Dunlap, jr., New York, whose II
yesterday placed him third be-
hind the two leaders, Ross Som
erville and Jack Munger, was Al
to the turn today, playing indif-
ferently throughout. He three
five-putted two greens and was
trapped four times on the first
nine holes.
