The card read: Out, 3 4 3 2 3 6 4 4 3—32; in, 5 3 3 4 4 4 2 4 5—34; total, 66. The 6 at the sixth, which is one of the new' holes, with- newly-ploughed ground not far off the lines, is readily comprehensible to anyone who knows the hole, while the ,r > at the tenth was due to his tee shot rinding the bunker. Otherwise there were "o errors in the round, which included no long putts nor holed' mashie chips, but consisted of straight-out good golf. Bogey •"or the course is 74. The previous best ■ mateur card, which was a record, was 67. Brooks did the old course in 62, but it was much shorter both on that occasion and when the 67 was compiled. Harold Black did a 69 over the week-end, bogey or better at every hole. Scoring generally at the Hutt was good this week-end, a 19up, two 9-ups, and an 8-up on bogey being returned. Saturday’s play consisted of the two-life competition, which is not sufficiently advanced for analysis. MORNINGTON CLUB . At the Mornington Club during the week-end H. J. Shanks did a gross 69. Bogey is 73.
