A member Of the United States
Walker Cup team In 1922. 1928.
1924 and 1884. Marston was an
unorthodox golfer when he was
younger. but later adopted the
more standard grips and swings.
Marston was q member Of the
Merton Cricket Club Of Philadel-
phia and won many minor titles
in the East while seeking the
elusive National Amateur.
One Of his main nemeses was
Bob Gardner Of Chicago. who put
him out almost every time they
tangled. In 1918. Marston
reached the semifinal at Detroit
where he again had the misfor-
tune to draw Gardner as his op-
ponent.
The inevitable happened.
Gardner eliminated him.

23-year-old Marston. and SEEM

the next six years. Going onto

one of the best performances OF
his career today as he pitched the
New York Giants to a 3-hit 81
triumph over the st. Louis Cardi-
mails.
Hartung, q converted outfield-
ser, held the Cards to one hit 60
ing into the ninth. With one
down, Marty Marion singled

The run was the first scored by
the Cards against Giant pitching

get the half, and Gardner was
ready TO concede. But for some
inexplicible reason, the ball
eluded the cup and Gardner went
on to take the match.
After that and until 1928
Marston never got past the first
round. and in ls22-the year be-
fore he won the title--he failed
even to qualify.
EMarston was not q sensational
golfer In any sense. He had nc
extra strong department. He was
merely q good all-around COM
petitive player who never gave ur
