Lewis "Skeeter" Fore duplicat-
ed his feat of last year and be-
came the first winner in history
to win the coveted Baskervill
Bowl two years in succession.
The smooth swinging, calm
thinking l8-yearold showed the
stamina of youth and the skill of
a defending champion as he
closed out four excellent players
to win the championship flight.
Fore route to victory was
paved with plenty of hurdles. His
first hurdle was Bill Burford of
Farmville, who fell to the de-
Tending champion four holes down
and two holes left to play.
The next hurdle was a former
Baskervill bowl winner named
Jake Elliot. Hailing from Dur
ham, N. c., Elliot won the Bas-
kervill tournament in 1858. He
also was medalist or low scorer
in the qualifying round. Fore
played superb golf to down Elliot
three strokes with two holes left
to play.
In the semininals Fore faced
another formidable foe. He was
meeting Billy Watson early Sun
day morning. Watson is twice a
Baskervill bowl winner, winning
in 1857 and 1889 1t is impossible
to shake Watson, so the only
way to win against him is to
shoot better golf. Skeeter closed
him out three and two. watson
had advanced over Billy C. Hub
bard and Tom jones'.
The finals were the climax of
the tournament, when Fore again
met a former Baskerville cham
pion. This time it was Dennis
Critzer, who won the first Bas-
kervill bowl six years ago, 1855.
Fore held a two stroke advan-
tage on Critzer going into the
18th hole. Critzer took four
strokes to get near the pin and
Fore was on the green in three,
so Critzer played the part of
gentleman and walked over to
shake hands, being the first of a
long line, congratulating the 1861
BaSkervlll tournament winner.
Critzer, who now halls from
Colonial Heights. had rough
road to the finals also. He de-
feated Johnny Howard, of Alex
andria. in his first match, and
ran into Billy Hay in the second
round. Hay was runner up last
year, but he fell to Critzer one
up in a match that was fought to
the wire. Critters next victim
was Ted Davenport, who had just
beaten Ernest Mccormick and
DreWry Gates. before falling to
Critzer.

Farmville defeated Pride Wing

five and four, and then went on
to take the first flight. Next year
the golfers will be fighting to
play Punk" in hopes the tradi-
ton will continue.
The LongWood Course was in
excellent shape for the grueling
match. Although the weather had
been extremely dry. there were
just enough timely showers to
settle the dust. but not enough
to interfere with the players.
The new teeing off areas. used
for the first time this year, add
ed some interesting variation to
the game. One of the places this
showed up was in the battle for
medalist in the qualifying round
There was four way tie for this
honor with 76's being shot by
Howard Ferguson, Johnny Har-
wood, DreWry Gates. and Jake
Elliot. These four played it off
in a sudden death match, that
saw Jake Elliot settle the affair
on the first hole.
Last year Billy Hay was the
medaliSt with a 70. The longer
tee shots brought up all the
scores. However this Sideliner
has no explanation for the 81
fired by Tom Jones in the OPEN
ing round. Golfers are kinda like
fishermen, but in this case the
big one didn't get away.
The prizes given away to the
winners brough lot of pleasant
smiles at the tournament finale.
Skeeter Fore receiver a matched
set of irons for the second year
in a row. Dennis Critzer got a
S71.50 mems watch.
The other flight winners re-
ceived identical prizes of match
ed woods. while the runner ups
got a set of mems golf bags.
,Fittingly enough Russ Basker-
will was the contestant who came
from the furthest distance. He
came from Huntington, w. Va.
and received a dozen golf balls.
Cliff Flanagan. a fine sports
man from Powhatan, captured
the honor of being the oldest
contestant at 70. Playing in the
fourth flight that age is mighty
close to the score he shoots. He
took home a dozen golf balls.

One reason that Howard Fer
guson had so much time on his
hands this year. is that he tan
gled with Tom Jones, of South
Boston. in the opening round.
Jones shot the lowest score ever
recorded in a tournament on the
Longwood Course. Fergus O n
came In with a creditable 80 on
the first nine, but he was seven
holes down. Jones shot an unbe-
lievable 81 on the first nine holes.
That is four strokes below par.
To make matters worse. Jones
got another birdie on the 18th
hole to close Ferguson out, eight

fact to the tournament record.
