GREAT DRIVING IN SCOTTISH OPEN

LEADS FAIRWEATHER & ADAMS BY A SHOT CURTAIN RAISER TO BRITISH OPEN ·

(By GEORGE GREENWOOD)

Ayr, June 16. OST of the famous players are taking part in

MOS

the Penfold Scottish Open Tournament,, which was begun on the Belleisle course here to- day. The tournament, for which the prize money amounts to £750, is in the nature of a curtain- raiser to the British Open Championship at Hoy- lake next week.

At the end of the first round Percy Alliss, who had never previously seen the course, led the field with a 69, a score which established a new record. The previously best was a 71 by J. A B. Stevenson, a well-known West of Scotland amateur. stroke behind Alliss are two Scottish internationals, J. Adams, of Romford, and S. Fairweather, of Malone, Belfast, each with 70.

Alliss won the event at Gleneagles last year with the amaz- ingly low score of 273. Another round will be played to-morrow, and the 60 leading competitors will then play the final 36 of 72 holes on Wednesday. Because it is of the park variety, and well wooded, Belleisle, in the heart of the Burns country, is different from any of the other 17 first-class courses, including two cham- pionship links, Prestwick and Troon, in a stretch of 10 miles of coast on the Firth of Clyde.
