...incredible swiftness, disaster struck. On the par-three, 150-yd. 15th hole, Palmer's No. 7 iron shot strayed off line and caught a yawning sand trap to the right of the green. He bogeyed the hole, and lost two strokes when Casper curled a downhill, 30-ft. putt smack into the center of the cup for a birdie...
John Hawkins, whose 72 turned the tide against Dartmouth Tuesday, pulled off another fabulous finish. Tied with his Princeton foe with one hole to play, Hawkins curled in a birdie putt...
...same time that McGuinn looked like a sure winner, Bob Sinclair and Wayne Thornbrough were holding slight leads on Yale's sixth and seventh men. But Sinclair, who burned out a 37 on the front nine, missed a one-foot putt to blow the 17th and bogeyed the 18th to fall, 1 down...

Rattled, Brewer drove into the rough on the par-five tenth, dubbed his second shot, knocked his third 20 ft. over the green, chipped 12 ft. short of the hole and missed the putt. He wound up with a 73, and Arnie's second straight 69 gave him a four-stroke victory. Gay tried hard to live up to his name as he accepted the second-place check for $12,000-giving him a total of $20,300 for ten days' work...
