Until the last few heads, it looked as if K.B.G.C. would bring it off. Thoy. led by three shots at ten, and were still a few shots ahead at the 18th. Then "Jock" McKelvio con. ceded two fours to U.

Madar's fine win of 13 shots over J. J. Baste. The other two KC.C skips, J. Fraser and E. C. Fincher, were beaten, the former by two shots and the latter by six.
