A ROUND OF 63 WITH NO. 2's ON THE CARD,
H. C. Jolly, who visited America with the British "Ryder" Cup team two yours ago, but who is not in- cluded in the ten possibles for this year'a match with the United States, accomplished his best por- formance at Foxgrove, to which club he is professional, recently, when he went round in 63 atrokes. Only one five appeared on his card, that being at the eleventh, and the remaining figures did not include a single two,
The feature of Jolly's game was his magnificent approaching, and so well did he play the shots up to the pin that there were several occa alons when he almost holed his second shot at the bogey four holes. In a number of cases he was left with a putt of only a few inches. His card read:
Out, 4, 4, 4, 8, 3, 8, 3, 4, 8-31. Home, 8, 5, 3, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4432.
