In addition TO the trophy, there
are a number of other prizes TO-
various things, which makes the
tournament one OF sustained inter-

The lowest 54-hole net total OF the

MeanweH. Ann Arbor. who won the
trophy with a score OF $50 in that
first year of play. Neither Mrs.
Miller nor Mrs. Meanwell are con-
testants this year: nor is Mrs. c.
P. Steimle. 1871 runner-up with 946.
The second-best net score, 244,
was made by Mrs. McLain in 1899.
Mrs. McLain was also low gross
that year with 265-a score she re.
pested last season-which stands as
the gross record.
In 1910 Mrs. O'Hara won the tro-
ply with a net 246: Mrs. Herbert
Beisiegel. Ann Arbor. was runner
up, 253. Mrs. Beisiegel is not com.
peting this season.

Neil said tensely. An engineer gave

Fifteen minutes later the second
charge was ready. The signal was
given and again there was the ter
rife roar.
The cracks gave way to criIm-

He led them to a small shed that

took out a key and went inside. He
