Though Walker could be said to have held his own with the younger Omar, Randle found bad luck on most of his drives and draws. U. M. Omar never fell from the high stand- ard which he set from the start.

The scores do not give a true in- dication of the play which, if Dame Fortune had played fair, would still have gone to the Cralgengower pair but by the more moderate margin of five or six shots.

All players found the green with remarkable consistency and some of the most compact and close-lying lays that inve been seen in the com- petition were found in this match. The Omars conceded a shot in the second and third hends and went steadily on to lead 10-2 at the ninth
