OMAHA. Aug 30.-A great eagle
on the fourth hole and a birdie on
the 622-yard 17th helped Marvin
(Bud) Ward Of Spokane, Wash, to
a 4-up lead over Pat Abbott of Los
Angeles at the end of the first l8
holes of their 36-hole match for the
national amateur golf championship
today.
Ward, who never has been down
to any opponent in this quest for
the title he won two years ago, gave
Abbott the same treatment. After
the first three holes had been halved
in pars. the Spokane slugger bagged
his eagle by smacking a three-iron
shot out of the rough 240 yards
across an out-of- bounds corner and
to within 4 feet of the cup on the
fourth hole.
The putt was conceded for his 3,
to put him l up, and he stayed in
front from there on.
Goes 2 Up.
Bud went up at the eighth hole
when Abbott three-putted. lost the
ninth on an out-of-bounds drive
and bad pitch, then came home in a
l-under-par 35 with two brides on
the way to win four holes and drop
one.
He went back to 2 up on a 24-foot
putt for a birdie at the 18th. took
the 14th with a par 4 when Abbott
dubbed a chip shot into a trap, lost
the 18th on three puts, and won
the 18th and 18th. On the former
he Clipped up 8 feet from the hole
after a fine four-wood shot out of
trouble and sank the putt for his
birdie 4. and knocked in 20-footer
for winning par on the 18th. Alb
bott, on this hole, was trapped back
of the ninth green in two to take
as.
Ward Worried by Wind.

under par for Ward and rs for
Abbott.
Ward said that, but for the wind
which whipped over the course and
at least made the heat bearable, he
would have been three under par.
Il kicked away that ninth hole"
he declared, and as for that two
footer I missed on No. l5-I don't
think could have sunk that if I'd
studied the line all day. My courage
just seemed to give out on me
there"
Abbott. who went to the 1898 finals
against Willie Turnesa, walked off
the 18th green over to one of the
refreshment tents, bought a sand
wich and a bottle of milk. and went
off to the practice area to do some
pitching and putting.

R,.-Jockey Eddie Arcaro,
who returned to action only
recently after a 30-day SuS-

late today by the Saratoga
stewards for unfair tactics"

in the Hopeful Stakes. They
referred the case to the Jockey
club, which meets in New oYrk

that Shut Out bumped Walter
