TRY CLUB, Chicago, September 15.—O Washing*on golfer out of fiv i one | e hopefuls who came to this man's championship appeared certain to make the grade at the conclusion | of the first half of the qualifying round of the national amateur golf title chase this afternoon. He is Chris J - Dunphy, District champion, entered from Columbia Country Club, known, according to Tom Logan of Boston, as Sergt. Dunphy, the soldier of the Dunphy today turned in a card the first half of the medal round. two or perhaps three strokes of his the list o‘f\ qualifier P rdifer and Roland Mac arson bhad 86, all too at least ten strok edictions of the experts that a core of 164 would qualify were knocked Into a cocked hat on the ba- #is of the scores turned in toda: As It stands tonight, 160 will be re- qulred to qualify, given the same weather conditions and about the ame brand of golf. The experts were pessimistic about Flossmoor befoie the tournament opened, but their scores today belied their pessimism. Flossmoor proved under the test of competition that it is not as hard as it looks, but the scores will not be phenomenally low, as at Brookline. The course is too long for the sharpehooters to be fiirting with 70 unless they run on & wild putting rampage. Dunphy Played the Card. Chris Dunphy evolved a scheme of | campaigning before he started out today that worked out fine in prac- tiee. Chris announced before he left the first tee that he card: that is, play against PHw—play for a five on a five hole, a Tour on a four hole and a three on a three hole, always with the chance that a putt may drop and the assur- ance that mistakes made by this.kind of golf will not be unduly penalized hris finished fivo over par. He made a fow mistakes, but every one makes those. On the whols he per- formed very creditably and deserves commendation for his fine showin; Dunphy got out in forty with a six on the par five third hole, where he half hit his second shot and reached the ditch. He was one over par at the fifth and again one over at the sixth, where putts for fours failed to drop, but he finished 3, 4, 4. Chris zot @ par four at the fourteenth; went one par on the fifteenth, Where he could not get over the ditch with his gecond shot, but got a par four at the sixteenth, a hard hole. He pushed his drive to the rough at the seventeenth, and took five against the var of five, where a fine second shot would have secured him a birdie four. Getting @ way to a fine tee shot at the eighteenth, it looked as if he were sure to finish with a seventy- cight, but his . niblick pitch skidded across to the far edge of the eloping green and he took three to get down, finished with a 6, for a 79. Eighteenth Foils Standifer. Guy M. Standifer; the 1921 District champlon, got away to a bad start, which nevertheless might have work- ed out all right, but for ar eight at the eighteenth hole, which ran his score up to 87. Standifer was put- ting very badly. He took four putts at the fourteenth hole, and three putts on_five other greens, combined with a few shots through the fair- way which ran his score way up. He ueeds remarkably good golf Monday to qualify—a 75 or better. Roland R. Mackenzie had two- 4s left at the end of the seventh for an out 9 of 40. A hooked mashie shot at the efghth cost him a 5 and he hooked his drive at the.ninth for inother 5. Roland was 1 above par at the cleventh after a par 5 at the tenth and took another 6 at the twelfth, wherc he found plenty of trouble. He took 4 at another short hole—the thirteenth, three putts tell- ing the story. Four putts at the fifteenth spelled disaster for the 16-year-old son of Albert, the youngest player in the tournament, who had here reached the point ‘where he must go, for . Albert R. MacKe d Parson of Che was going to | finks. of 79, well up among the leaders in Another round on Monday within initial effort will put Dunphy within 1 e and Roland R. MacKenzie | Chase all faltered badly in the | had scores of 87 and Albert had | h to qualiiy Monday unless they everything. He took a 6 after reach- ing the green in two shots. From the rough at the sixteenth he got a par 4, but missed a shot at the seven- teenth and took a five. Another putt- ing brainstorm struck Roland at the eighteenth and he finished with a 6 for an 87. Parson’s Golf Weak. Donald Parson, who Mays at Cheyy Chase, and who won the medal in the Chevy Chase invitation event this past spring, was out In 48, through bad golf all the way, and a 9 at the sixth hole./ Parson got back in 38 for a total of 86, and will have to shoot real golf on Monday to make the select thirty-two who will battle for Jess Sweetser's title, Chris Dunphy and Guy Standifer il pair and Albert and Roland MacKenzie will play together in the annual competition tomorrow for the American golfer trophy, a best ball ‘medal play affair. Albert MacKenzie's 88 was a tale of missed tee shots and a few missed putts. Never able to get away from the tee with his customary distance and accuracy, the middleatlantic champion only half hit hie drive at the first hole, although he got a par 5. Ever thereafter the tee shots would not come off and he took three putts on four of the greens to add to his total. MacKenzie was out in 44 and back the same figure. The cards of the Washington con- testants follow: Out. e oo oo so ko ce e ea oo oo MRS. NEWBURN WINNER IN PUTTING TOURNAMENT Mrs T. W.
