EVANSVILLE, Ind, Aug. TO-
There were hopes today that Indi-

would be known by tonight.
Halted by darkness before fifteen
of the field had reached the half
way mark of thirty-six holes yes
terday, the seventy-two-hole cham
pionship tournament entered its
final stages today.
First on the program today was
the windup of the first day program
by the fifteen players who were
halted-some with one, two or three
holes to play.
Ralph Stonehouse, wiry little Cof-
fin municipal course pro, of Indian
apolis, should be the thirty hole
leader. He battered the gutta
percha around the par 70 layout in
sub-par figures of 144 yesterday.
Chance to Tie
Stonehouse after going around
the course in "a, one over par, in
the morning round yesterday, came
back strong in the afternoon and
did 20, three under par, for his
total of two under par.
Heinlein, tied with Guy Paulsen,
Fl. Wayne, defending champion, at
the end of eighteen holes with 70,
did an even par 70 in the afternoon
for his las.
Paulsen slipped badly in the aft
ernoon round yesterday and took a
70, five over par, to finish well down
the list with $50.
The feature of yesterdays play
was the performance Of little Jack
Taulman, Columbus high school
star, who shot rs in the morning
round, but came back in the after
noon to pound out a sub-par 70 for
a lat total.
Little A1assie Miller, Noblesville
pro, put together a pair of consist
ent 74s yesterday, one over par, each
round, to finish in 14S and be in
striking distance of the leaders as
the final day of play opened.
Close Behind Miller came a young
amateur star, Bud Pettigrew of
Pendleton, Indiana high school
champion last year, who put to-
gether 70 and rs for a 149 total
Hambrick Receivers
A lanky New Albany pro was
tied with Pettigrew at 149, as was
Archie Hambrick, French Lick pro
Hambrick, after poor n in the
morning, redeemed himself with a
sub-par 70 in the afternoon to take
place among the leaders at 149.
Johnny watson, South Bend pro
and former champion, had $50. Phil
Talbot, Bloomington, with a chance
to step out in front of Jack Taul-
man for the amateur lead, faltered
on the last few holes and finished
with Isl.
Frank McCarty, Connersville, tied
with Ralph Stonehouse for medal
honors in the second round yester-
day afternoon. Franks 70 helped
him to a Isl total. Neal McIr-
tyre. indianapolis, ex-champion, and

dent of the association, also had
