S circuit, Gonzalez walked away with the two Argentine championships, He won the final match of the Amateur 10 and 9, against Argentine Pedro M. Ledesma. In the open he made a score of 288, and his nearest rival, A. M. de Anchorena, had a total of 304. Ratto, however, gave him a good |fight, in the 36-hole final of the | Brazilian amateur. Ratto was one- 'up at the end of the morning round, but Gonzalez finally won, 2 and 1. Gonzalez' father is an Argentine | golf pro, Jose M. Gonzalez. | With the chief of state setting the |way and with Gonzalez chalking off |major victories, the Brazilian press has decided golf is worth vocering, |and a lot of people are talking about |the game. Paying galleries are still ‘prelty small—some 400 watched the ‘Gonmlez-mtw Brazilian amateur final, and some 500 saw them in a charity match. But golf is hard to watch under a blazing sun in a sub- tropical climate, and the two Rio| clubs are reachable only by auto- mobile or a long bus line.
