The decision .depended upon one of tho most dramatic"singles in the history of the contest. Two years ago Jainie;son, Cambridge (captain), beat Moss by the colossal margin, .of 13 up and ll' to play, and looked like repeating it at Formby today. , j

He finished the morning round 4 upand went on to bo S up and 10 to play. The crowd left, believing the- match virtually over. Then Moss hadsueb. an inspired patch that he won five holes in succession. He lost the fourteenth, leaving Jamieson dorniy i. Moss won the next by holing a chip shot fjom the back of the green. The crowd filtered back.. Excitement was intense when Moss won tho next two and the fate of the match depended on tho last hole. Moss, pitching from, the rough to five yards from the pin, holed out with a gallant 4. Nobody believed that Jamiesoii, in the circumstances, would' hole" his seven-foot putt, but ho managed it.
