She also said that she might go to the national tournament at Norton, Conn., Aug. 21, if the insurance company she works for would give her the time off. They also divided up the swag.

Several days ago John Roger asked his dad what he could do to make Harriett win, and: Roy said for him to cross his fingers. \ He did that literally and crossed the fingers on both hands and kept them that way while she was playing. Only once did he relax, and that was during the semifinals when Miss Randall had piled up a big margin over Miss Ellis at the end of the first nine.. Then he only kept the fingers of one hand crossed while he rested the other in his pockets.

prized of all was the No. 14 flag taken from the green where she finally won the title. Miss Dunn received two silver trays, one for being the medalist with an 81 in the qualifying round Monday. and the other for runnerup. But the easy-going caddie and the 8-year-old boy weren't in on these ceremonies, although they were part of the match. 3 The caddie is Steve Davis, and he always serves Miss Randall during tournament campetition. He is tall and thin and looks as though he has been put ‘together with wires, and when he walks you figure he may make the next green by the 21st century if no one interrupts him. on In that lies his value. In the heat of competition, he slows up Miss Randall and sees that -she takes plenty of time preparing for gach shot. He knows as much golf as Scotchmen say they do, and she consults with him frequently. The . 8-year-old is John Roger,
