CADDIED FOR WATRoUs

Reinsma. who started as a
caddie for WatrouS when the
latter was professional at High
lands, Grand Rapids. has been
playing his best golf the last two
years. He won the Northern State
Open both years. An eight-foot
putt for a birdie 4 on the eight
zenith in the afternoon gave him
a II and put him in the playoff.
Chuck Kocsis, in giving up the
title he won a year ago. finished
one stroke back of the three lead
ers. He tied at lat with Denny
Champagne of Grand Rapids and
Chick Harbert of Battle Creek.
Chuck barely missed a 35-foot putt
on the last green for A birdie
which would have given him tie
for the lead.
Further proof that the tourna-
ment picture as it concerns Mich
igan's professionals is changing is
shown by the fact that two new

performances. Fiebig closed with

The tournament developed into
free-for-all in the afternoon
when Stahl and Sawyer. the first
round leaders, ran into trouble on
the first nine. Stahl took 40 and
Sawyer 80. That put about a
dozen players back in the running.
But while Stahl came in with 81
for II. Sawyer rallied for IS
on the final nine.
Van Liere got in his best ticks
by scoring a sensational 32-four
under par-going out in the after
noon with eight one-putt greens.
Ernie Shave of Meadowbrook also
crowded into the running with a
81 on the first nine but spoiled it
all by taking AZ on the final nine.

-WHIRLAWAY - Best two

wit by his own connections be-
cause of his fondneSS for running
into the outside fence only to make
them eat their words by winning
the Kentucky Derby and Freak
ness. this unpredictable colt has
established an odd sort of consist
ency record in his last 10 starts.
Beginning on Nov. ID, 1910. he won
two races, then lost two. then won
two, then lost two and finally won
two again to complete the cycle.
But now the expert riding of Eddie
ArCaro seems to have lifted him
out of the Screwball class def
nitely.

3-TRUCKIN - Best candidate
for the glue factory. You couldn't
say this well-bred mare was al
ways a bridesmaid but never a
bride. because she never even gets
within hailing distance of the
bride. Six years old and never has
graced the winners circle. Rarely
