Golfers Beat Yale 5-4 at New Haven; Bow to Williams

Climaxing a weekend of golfing wars, the Varsity linksmen smashed a 13 year jinx and whipped the favored Elis 5 to 4 at New Haven Saturday morning. That seems to be the favorite score for Coach Hodder's men, because in the afternoon they bowed 5 to 4 to Williams at New Haven. It was the fourth 5 to 4 setback for the Hoddermen this spring.

In the Yale match the Crimson dropped two points in the first foursome as Ace Cordingley and Bob Graves were defeated in best ball and Cordingley lost his individual match. Graves, however, gave Harvard what proved to be the deciding point of the day as he nosed out Yale's Merritt on the 20th green. Henry Thompson, Jack Barr, and Watty Dickerman won their matches, and the Barr-Dickerman duo provided the fifth tally.

Against Williams in an anti-climax afternoon tilt, the Crimson split the singles engagements as Graves preserved his season's undefeated status, but two of the three best-balls were lost. On Friday the team played the best golf of the weekend in trouncing Holy Cross 7 to 2.
