Their Hopes Dashed

Bulla and Heafner had just won
the eleventh TO cut their rivals
lead to up. Their hope that this
would start a rally was dashed
on the very next hole when Picard
.holed a 45-foot chip shot after
Metz second had stopped foot
short of the green. Picard and
Metz again were 3 up.
The next four holes were
halved. among them the four
'teenth where both pairs got
birdie fourS
The days most sensational
scoring in the alternate stroke
competition was furnished by
Wood. the present National Open
champion, and Little. last years
winner.
Turning on the heat in their
tuSsle with the formidable team
of Snead and Guldahl. the win
ners were six under par for the
30 holes their match went.
After a morning 20 had given
them a three up lead. Wood and
Little covered the first nine in
the afternoon in 80, three under,
and were five up.
The match ended sensationally.
On the one-shot eleventh, Little
dropped 35 foot putt for a birdie
deuce, and then on the 432-yard
twelfth. after a mighty drive by
Little, Wood hit the flag with his
seven iron second. the ball stopping
less than two feet from the pin
for birdie which ended il.

Would Aid Farmers

If legislation could be enacted,
Miller says it would not only pro-
tect owners from stolen dogs, but
would protect farmers. Dogs, he
said. often kill farmers poultry.
sheep and other animals.
Nothing much can be done TO
the owner, unless positive identi-
fication. such as tattooed regis
tration number, is on the dog.
At the meeting Miller appointed
a special committee consisting Of
Tom Linn. vice president of the
organization; George c. Burger.
secretary and treasurer; Robert
Bridges and Howard Noling to
contact hunting dog clubs
throughout the country to start
action Immediately in forming a
