without leaving. They brought
his lunch to him.
Harry, the 1916 Maryland
Open champion. in q stretch
finish with Lew Worsham, has
been "a notoriously poor putter,
but he developed a new con-
fidence recently and thought he
could win again.
GrieSmer shot 72 in the first
round Monday without a three
putt green. He added a 72
yesterday morning with a two
under par finish on the last
three holes and was only two
shots. out Of the lead with IA.
Griesmer was playing with
Charley Bassler, the eventual
winner and the man he figured
he had to beat. When Bassler
started the last round 4-4-5-8
against Griesmer's par golf,
Harry was leading him by two
strokes with IA holes to go.
Bassler birdied the fifth hole
but Griesmer pared it and
Harry still was a stroke ahead.
On the sixth, short par four,
BasSler was over in two and
Griesmer's second shot was 10
feet from the stick. Harry en-
visioned picking up two more
strokes. He still hadn't three
putted, incidentally.
But Bassler played fine ap-
proach shot and pared the hole.
Griesmer's birdie putt was short
and he missed a short putt for
a par.
All Of a sudden Harry stopped
thinking clearly. He suddenly
realized his legs ached and that
he was dead tired. He went over
par on the next three holes and
fumbled his way to a Al on the
back nine, merely going through
the motions. He hit the ball
almost like q 90-shooter. His
efforts were on the pathetic side.
Somebody had mentioned that
Griesmer had started to swing
like a very tired golfer late on
the back nine of the morning
round. But he was in the run
ming and was fighting to hold
his place. On the first six holes

Maryland Open Title Points Up
'B0ssIer's Brilliant Record

played worse in winning a tour
nament. For a time yesterday
the Maryland Open appeared to
be the most unpopular title on
record. Nobody wanted it.
But after Charley smacked
two four-wood shots out of
bounds on the 4th hole of his
final round and still was in con-
tention, he started to fight. The
more he played the madder he
became over thinking of the
eight on the fourth hole and his
par golf from that point was
good enough to win.
Bassler was playing his own
game and halting all spectators
roaming over the course to learn
of the progress of his closest
rivals.
Hears of Rivals Woes.
He heard that Dan Herring
took 9 on the same hole, where
he took eight, and that John
O'Donnell was four over par for
seven holes. He was playing
with Harry Griesmer, who had
him by two strokes at one time,
and Earl Fling, who was in
contention, but they both went
haywire on the last round. He
learned that Roger Peacock, who
was threatening. took seven on
the 11th, and that Frank
Tenney booted his chance with
a double-bogey five on the short
14th.
On the fourth, where he took
eight, Bassler gambled and
missed but still won. He went
for the green with a four-wood,
instead of playing safe, and twice
hooked out of bounds. But he
came back with a birdie deuce
on the fifth, and after going
over par on seven he scrambled
for a birdie on eight and birdied
9 and 10. That was it.
Herring, who was third two
years ago in Baltimore, salvaged
second place despite his nine by
playing the last seven holes in
three under par. John O'Don-
nell, f1rst-day leader with a Ct,

self, but he mentally was alert
and that was helping his shot
making.
But everything crumbled with
the three-putt green. Here was
his old jinx. He feared possible
three-putt greens ahead. His
arms were limp and his legs
dragged. For nine holes he had
played on courage, but on his
first lapse he realized he was
through.
After two fine 72s he stumbled
to an 81.
Harry had to laugh, however,
on the last hole. He was short in
two and Earl Fling asked Cries
mer's caddie what he had used.
"A five iron," the caddie said.
II told him to use four and he
used five. He's lost 10 pounds
because Of all those bogeys and
he's lost all my money besides
and he uses a f1ve-iron when I
tell him to use four"

sion Of how to play on the par

topped all three tee shots on
the par-five holes and with a
safe second, accurate third and
one putt, he birdied all three of
the holes. Bassler now has
won the Maryland Open over
the three toughest courses in the

Charley Bassler's defeat in the
finals of the Baltimore Match
Play Open last fall is the only
loss that keeps him from hold
ing the Baltimore, District, and
Maryland Open titles and the
Middle Atlantic PGA champion
ship at the same time. AS it is,
no pro in this section ever
matched his present accomplish
ments.
The strong, handsome, out
spoken pro at Catonsville's Roll
ing Road Club won the Maryland
Open for the third time yester-
day at Prince Georges with par
golf for 81 holes, 68-74-74 for
ZIG.
In addition to his three Mary
land Open triumphs Bassler has
won the Mid-Atlantic PGA title
twice; the District Open title
twice and the Baltimore Open
three times. That's 10 titles in
all in the major pro events in
this section.
