MICHIGAN RULES
IN TEAM BATTLE
Two Wolverines in Triple
Tie for Medal Honors.
Lynch Survives.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.
1@HIRTY-TwO golfng lads from
1e different colleges scattered

Il breadth of the United States
started twin l8-hole match play
rounds today over the same course at
the Congressional Country Club which
thwarted their best efforts to match
par through two hectic days of medal
play warfare At the close Of play
today only eight of them will be left
to contest in a 36-hole quarter final
round tomorrow for the national inter-
collegiate crown, which Charlie Yates
of Georgia Tech wore jauntily today
as he unleashed his heavy artillery in
the opening round.
Michigan, home of great foot ball
teams, had four men in the tourna-
ment today, the largest numerical rep
resentation in the group, as BETTING
the institution which grabbed the
team championship for the second
consecutive year and the alma mater
of two of the three co-medalists.
Oklahoma, Princeton and Georgia
Tech had three each, while Penn State,
Texas and Pitt had two apiece.
GEORGETOWN had one man in the
match play rounds, but that man is
one Of the major threats to win. Joe
Lynch from Boston, captain of the
Hoya team. is no push-over in any
league where they hit ball with
club.
You can bank on these college kids
pulling some funny stuff. of brand
you won't see in any other major golf
tournament. Late yesterday ruddy-
faced, chubby little gent from Ann
Arbor. who lives in the shadow of
the towers of the University of Mich
igan, came up to the eighteenth tee,
where a green stretch of fairway
showed him the path to the hole 300
yards away. He was woodrow Malloy,
21-year -old junior at Michigan. one
of the two lads of the same name who
tied for the lead over the first day.
Thought He Needed Birdie.
LIE WAS the one who didn't fade
over the final day of medal play.
Jack Malloy faded back to 70. but
Woodrow. a wisp of a lad weighing
about 135 pounds, hung on. He blew
shots at the thirteenth, fourteenth
and sixteenth, and stood on the final
tee with a to tie Charlie Kocsis, his
tean1mate, and Lewis johnson of
Charleston, S. C. They had finished
long before with identical totals of
l4s, which happens to be four above
par for a course which the boys said
they would burn up.
But he didn't know it. And if any
thing funnier has happened in a
major tournament in a long time we
haven't heard of it. Here was guy
who had a bird to tie and he thought
a bird would win. He smote that ball
dead on line for the pin. 1t nit in
front of the green, took left hop
and rolled Is feet to the left of the
pin. His putt for the eagle deuce
was 10 inches short, and he tapped in
the putt to tie.
Did you know you had that putt to
VIM" we asked him. mo, didn't"
he said. Il thought had birdie to
win" And he explained that he
thought he had 6 on the thirteenth,
where his second shot caught a bum
ker and he got really good 7.
Yates had an armful of work cut
out for him today as the present
champion clashed in the opening
round with Walter Emery, logged
little SHOEMAKER who won the title in
1888. The first seven men and Yates
we're seeoed in the draw, placing such
stalwarts as Yates, Emery, Harry
Candy and Kocsis in the top half,
while the lower half had Woodrow
Malloy, Bobby Riegel, John Fischer,
Freddie Haas and Joe Lynch. That
lower half looks the stronger part OF
the draw, but you never can tell in
such a tournament as this college af-
fair when the boys take off the wraps
in match play.
Riegel Makes Grade.
OUTSTANDING among the last
~ minute stands to qualify were
those Of Riegel the lad who won the
Southern championship last week.
Bobby did a final round OF 70, even
par, to make the grade with strokes
to spare. Candy. the slugger from
Oklahoma, out in Al over the final
round, breeZed home in 33 for the low
est nine of the tourney and a "A.
Shed no tears over that gallant
Stanford bunch who came 5000 miles
to take a licking. Their coach says
that If they played as well with their
heads as they play with their clubs
they could qualify in any tournament.
AS it was only one out of six made the
grade. This was gigantic Jack Hoerner,
the boy who would make a great full
back and may make great, golfer.
Stewart, Dwyer and Edwards, the
high1y-touted boys from Palo Alto,
couldn't make it. The first two were
q shot outside the play-off, and Ed
wards, winding up with 76, was two
shots back.
Robert Mclaughlin of Buffalo trun-
died in 30-foot putt across the first
green for bird to win one of the
places in the play-off at 80. r. B
Parker of Princeton won the other
with a par on the third hole after a
duel with H Eshelman of Yale.
Pairings Are Listed.
