Thirty-six holes of play were to decide whether Miss Orcutt was to win the title for the fourth consecutive year or whether Mies Hicks, youthful Hempatead star, was ta capture it for the first time in her brief but sensational career. On their play during the week thers has been little to chooss be- twéen the finalists.

Bhe covered the first nine holes of her match with Mrs. Federmdn in 39 strokes com- pared to the 46 Mish Orcutt needed aguinst Mrs, Hucknall. On the basis of that cemparisen, d seem to be slated to win the title .but supporters of the present champion have hdpes that the cham- pion got all the bad golf out of her system yesterday. LE By Verne Wickham This divet digger is just stamping down a few irregularities on the putting green. He came preparéd to stamp down heel marks, divot holes or any other trouble in his way. He always keeps a stamper in his bag for such occasiens. When he fin- ishes hig bit of greean censtruction the line of putt {s. wsually just abeut right, but in deing so, he vio- lates enough rules to fill a book. The rule reads like this: *“The elub must not be lald with more than. its own weight upon the ground, nor must anything be preased down either with the club or in any OTHER WAY.” Anether section of the rule gov- erning the putting green reads: “The line of putt must not touched, except by placing the club immediately in front of the ball in the act of addressing it.” Loosc impediments may be lift. ed. Snow - wormcasts and 8o on can be scraped aside with a club and loose leaves must be lifted, but nothing can ever be prussed down en the green. This applies to divet holes nade by the approsch shots. If & ball digs inte a seft green and piles up a divet mark right in front of your ball yeu have to play it. You ean use & lofted fron or just smack the ball threugh and over the irregular. ity, but you must not press it down with your foot or the club, It is net permimible to touch ¢ | the ground behind the ball in er- der to point out the line of putt.

The Pirates are now being handled by 8. Motto and the Senecas by Mr. Olson.
