had lengthy correspondence with John

seldom has seen it in action.

Jim stood near the seventeenth

Peacock and Billy Dettweiler play a
match in the championship and
there. right before his eyes, he saw
all the drama and involved situations
which the stymie can cause. Dett-
weller twice laid Peacock a stymie
on the same green.
CurOusly enough the stymie never
figured in the final match in the title
tourney between Billy Shea, the win.

was a partial stymie on the fifteenth

did. That was the only near -stymis
