...fade, Golfer Ferebee limped up to the final green, sank his putt for a 5 and a last-round 89. He had taken 687 strokes (90, 82, 82, 82, 87, 87, 88, 89) for the 144 holes, had covered each of Olympia's four courses twice (a tee-to-green distance of 29 miles) in 13 hr. 32 min.

At the end of the morning round, Titan Snead was ready to throw his clubs in the nearby Delaware. He had not succeeded in winning a hole. Runyan was 5 up, had been leading ever since the third hole...
...links, Dunster toppled Lowell from its tee, as the Dunster divot-diggers drove and putted their way to a 6 to 3 decision. In other matches, Winthrop defaulted to Eliot, and Dudly defaulted to Adams. With two matches unplayed, Kirkland took the Bunny golfers 31/2 to 21/2...
