Like the old-time eagle, he is able to renew his youth or something like that, because he went out with his friends a couple of days ago and made a birdie on the last hole to tie the score even after he had made a 39. on the first round. It seems that Kirsch got Doe Willie Penababe Kemp for a partner while Mr. Melvin Russell got Mr. Charlie Salas as a helper and while Charlie got two 40’s and Melvin had 43-44, it did not avail them anything on account of the 18th as played by the afore- mentioned Kirsch. -On the first round the ex-summer-pro made the following score:~ 455 454 354 for 39, while Doc took 46 and their side finished three down. On the next two holes, Doc got pars and squared the match but not for long on account of Mel and Char- lie got threes on the-13th. Then Penababe made an eight on the 14th and that is where Kirsch) took Willie aside and told him a thing or two, which was mostly about how to not knock your ball into the woods. Then they took a point with par but lost it and one more on the 16th when Char- lie made a neat three and the oth- ers took fours and left the match three-up for Mel and Charlie. On the 17th Mel slipped to a six and that made Doc and Kirsch two down and up came the ‘li and Kirschenbaum’s birdie. = green, Kirsch told Willie the chance they had to break was for him to sink the putt. : course, Charlie and Mel “laffed up” their respective sleeves, but Johnny Jumpin Jehosophat sur- prised everybody, including him- self, by knocking the putt into the can for a birdie, two points and a tie match, and that is why you see fren, Kec tld Wile he yen ual Willie's Score Soars— Tt appears that the ‘tables have been turned on Mr. William Pious .Watkins and his friend, Mr. Li Plummer.
