...wind of gale proportions sent scores upward, and low medal honors for the day were shared by Yale's brilliant Ed Meister and his partner Page with 74's. Meister edged Captain Ace Cordingley 2-1 and paired with Page for a best ball victory in the first foursome. Page gave the Blue boys their third point by beating Watty Dickerman...

He has yet to lose an individual contest, and he and partner Don Peddle have lost only one best ball. In addition to Elbel, that leaves Jack McCann, Bill Melsh, and Ted Allis on the outside looking in. Both McCann and Allis have been used in the starting lineup this year and are not out of the fight yet. McCann, in fact, is probably the number seven...
