won by Melvin Russell with a net
score OF 1856 during the tourna-

is the second trophy that the SUI

in as many months and so there
must be something in education
after all. Second place was taken
by Tom Cooper, another educator
but third place was tied by Bob
SpottsWOod and Sam Goldsmith,
which goes to prove that all rules
have exceptions and the educa-
ton or rather brains" rule does
not apply here. Low gross was
made by Spottswood with 152 but
the difference of Is strokes hand

subject. Mr. Russell was not able
to be at the dinner ION account
