One of the closest and most Interest

ing golf foursomes, medal play, ever

witnessed on the Hammond Country club links was played there last Sat

urday afternoon with the grouna nara as nails and the mercury flirting with the 26-degree mark. The last three

holes were played in fast garnering

darkness and prevented good scoring

for holes seven, eight and nine. .

Th fnuraome was between W. C

Crawford and H. M. Johnson vs. Wal

ter B. Conkey and P. A. Parry. Craw

ford's side was defeated on the eigh

teen holes by one stroke, a remarKapiy

close score. On the out Journey con-

key's side lost by one stroke and on the

in trip won by two strokes.

The gross for the eighteen holes was

as follows:

Conkey 108 Crawford 10 Johnson 9 Parry 109

Honors for the out round went to Conkey with a El and on the in round to Parry with a 64. The bogey wins were: Parry, 6; Conkey, 6; Crawford,

4, and Johnson, 3. "With the roll given the little pellet by the hard ground some phenomenal drives and brassies were recorded, several registering from 260 to 300 yards, but It was absolutely Impossible to putt
