Alex Ferguson and Curly Ogden, of course, are apt to break in occasionally, but as usual the bulk of the relief work likely will fall upon the shoulders of Fred Marberry.

But Voigt came back at the sixteenth with another high mashie shot eight feet beyond the pin, sink- ing the putt for another birdle 3.

McAleer's clip shot was stone dead, coming to rest within three inches of the cup. Volgt putted up within two feet and sank the putt for & half to win.
