Sothoron was a puzzle to the Yanks with men on bases while Bob Shaw- key and Collins were ineffective and Harper, who pitched the last inning, was wild. A near riot took place in the last half of the eighth inning. Harper hit Jamieson in the ribs, Gardner on the arm and O'Neill in the back O’Nelll, enraged, grabbed the ball and threw it wide to Harper. The two then squared off to use their fists but Wwere separated before either had in- flicted any damage.

Scoring was not so spectacular yes- terday as on Wednesday, when three players scored under 70, but Jones bare- ly missed a five foot putt on the home green for a second 69 in two days. His 70 was equalled yesterday by only one other player, Laurie Ayton of the Evanston Go!f club, Chicago. Only two players equalled par, 71, yesterday—Jock Hutchinson, who is de- fending his title, and Robert Simpsor, the only California contender, who took fifteen strokes off his first day’s score, showing a flash of the play he exhibit- ed in winning the championship twice | in years gone by.
