In re- cent practice he had been playing 74 and over a course several strokes harder than Midlothian, J. J, McDermott, champion in 1911 and 1912, was not pl..ying well as usual, taking 155. R. M.

As four men took 158, those who terday won the right to play ta the finals to-day and to-morrow number thirty-three, making tae total contestants sixty-five. Of these eight are amateurs, Donald Edward of Midlothian made the best amateur score, 152.
