Starting out with the same score as Snead, Guldahl had just missed birdies on the first four holes, holed a 50-footer for a birdie on the fifth. He took a weak bogey on the sixth and parred the seventh. This left him needing to shoot one under par for eleven holes to tie Snead.

English F should be bolstered by two regular half courses, one open to Freshmen in the primary tricks of speaking, and one to teach the advance principles.

Presumably, the bogey of professionalism is to be laid for good and all by this "organized association". This has not been the case with the Big Ten, where only Chicago has clung to honestly amateur standards. Recruiting varies in blatancy among the other nine, and at Wisconsin there has recently been under discussion a plan to organize "athletic scholarships" specifically for ability upon the playing field, and to create a fund to be administered by the dean, to reward these cave...
