After that initial spin- Walter Ha- gen had been only two strokes be- hind the Englewocd man with a 70. However, Walter yesterday took a 78, and by relinquishing the second posi- tion enabled Walker to add a stroke to his over-all lead with a tetal of 140 strakes. Closest to Walker at the finish of the second eighteen were William V. Creavy of Hillerest, Kansas City, -and Bob Macdonald of Bob o' Link, Chi- cago, each at 146.
