MiddIecoff, Amateur,
HumbIes Golf Pros
In Pinehurst Win
By WALTER McCALLUM,
Gtor SfaN Hnrraspnrdepf


PTNEHURST, N. c., Nov. 9.-Pro
golfers of the land can thank their
lucky stars that 1t. Cary Middle
coff, the dentist from Memphis by
way of the United States Army,
won't be around much longer to
plague them as they carry their tour
for fairway gold through the 5000
Durham tournament that started
today.
And the amateurs, who have been
like sheep before the touring pros
for years, have a shot in the arm.
They look on Middlecoff. the newest
simon-pure sensation, as hotshot
to win the amateur. title tourney
next fall at Baltusrol.
For the first time in the 44-year
history of the North-South open
championship, it has been won by
an amateur, Middlecoff, and now
on sick leave from the Army. He
totaled 280 for u holes.
Over the last two rounds Of the
championship they put Middlecof
with Ben Hogan and Gene Sarazen.
A lot of men might have wilted
under the pressure these two sea-
soned performers put on, but not
Middlecoff. .-. s.
Playing the last round with a q
stroke lead at the Saith hole, he kept
the pressure on and finished with
four 3s over a great golf test. Two
were pars, on the 18th and 18th. He
bagged an eagle on the 18th, holing
q big putt from the back of the
green, and before a tremendous
gallery he Clipped in for a on the
home hole.
Middlecoff led Pro Denny Shute,
who finished second by five strokes.
His total score was under par. Ben
Hogan finished third.
For time yesterday. 1t seemed
Middlecoff was on the skids, but he
put on the pressure with a great
chip at the 14th, which rescued his
par. Then finished with the quar-
tet of 38 to clinch the tournament.
He won the amateur prize at Rich
mond with 305, 25 strokes worse than
his winning score here.

Insofar as any real shooting is
concerned, the 1856 duck season
got off to rather quiet start. The
ducks and geese were all concen-
trated over on the Eastern Shore
as we advised last week, and the
gunners who were fortunate to have
blinds located in that area had
some real shooting, bag limits being
the rule for the two-day week end
Wildflowers in the Potomac and the
Patuxent had almost no shooting
whatever. Two of our friends put in
two days without firing a gun. Up
river, the great number of hunters
kept the ducks in circulation, so that
fair bag limits were obtained. Since
opening day, however, there has
been practically no shooting and few
ducks have been observed. Some few
blackheads have made their ap-
perance on the lower Patuxent, but
it will be several weeks, barring
some real ducking weather, before
the shooting becomes general.
AS a matter of encouragement,
Long Island Sound literally is
covered with vast f1ocks of black
heads, both the greater and lesser
scaup. Tom Main of Ducks Un-
limited of Canada reports that the
recent cold spell should clear all
the ducks out of Canada by this
week end. Great numbers of red
heads are making their way down
the Atlantic hyway, and Uncle Dick
Norris of Maryland estimates that
at least half of the opening days
bag on North East River was filled
with that species. Along the Great
Lakes mild weather has delayed
thousands Of ducks which a pre-
dicted cold spell should send sour
rying this way. Altogether a good
season looms. AS we write, one OF
our friends phones that gunners in
one set of blinds on the Eastern
Shore had filled their limit by II 100
am. and were homeward bound.
All we need now Is more and better
ducking weather.
Latest reports from bay fishermen
have not been so encouraging. The
rockf1sh are not surfacing regularly
and are for the most part not taking
lures even with deep trolling. The
trout have been little more active,
but the best of the boat captains all
agree that there won't be too much
doing until the weather turns much
colder and stays that way for a
while.
Small-mouth bass fishing up the
Potomac and Shenandoah has
waned as the water has cooled, and
unless we have continued warm
spell anglers for these gamesters
