In Open Golf Tourney Of The Philippines
By Ralph G. Hawkins
Manila, Jan. 9.
History repeated itself at the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club course in Madaluyong when Norman Von Nida, 24-year old, blue-eyed Australian pro romped off with the 1939 Philippine Open championship with tall, affable Chin Seisui of Japan, pressing him throughout the 36-hole final for top honours. Von Nida's 72-hole score was 292, one stroke less than the score with which he bagged last year's Open.
