N. A. Brown had one of his "on" days on Saturday, E. T. McMullen couldn't find his putting touch and that, in a nutshell, is the story behind the play for the right of ownership of the Captain's Cup 1947.
Bad putting lapsen by Mc- Mullen on the 8th and 9th en- abled Brown to turn two up and before the champ' could elimin ate the trouble Brown had add- ed another two holes and a
leng putt at the 15th clinched a 4-3 win. Congratulations to the winner on playing a stout game (approx 79) and nequir- ing a handsome piece of silver.
