Ussher finished with 70, the par of the course, and Locke was credited with 70. allowing him two putts within 15 feet where he did not hole out Locke was a model of consistency ami was always on the fairway. Ussher play ed one of his best games, .kip putting lapse at the tenth being the only blemish.
