Universidad del Norte - Archivo Parrish Seníors Scíntílíate • Dr. Arthur E. Billings, retired sur- geon of Philadelphia, and Presiden! of Merion Golf Club, was the star in a foursome of distinguished seniors who played Pinehurst's number one course on November 20th. Dr. Billings poised his number two wood and performed the delicate operation required to score a hole in óne. It was at the eighth hole, 181 yards, up hill. This is one of the more difficult par three holes on Pine- hurst's four courses. Dr. Billings played the first nine in 35. Aided by a birdie three at the 345 yard 13th, where his second was two inches from the hole, he played the second nine in 36 for a total of 71, one over par. He took a bogey four at the 176 yard 18th, but it was a very satis- factory round, not only to Dr. Billings, but his partner Robert A. Stranahan of Toledo. Their opponents were Joseph Wholean of Cypress Point, Calif., and Seminóle, Palm Beach, Fia., and Earl Ross of New York, a former president of the Metropolitan Golf Associiation. These gentlemen played the sixth, seventh and eighth holes in a best balí of 2-3-1 against the pars of 3-4-3. Strana- han contributed the deuce, Wholean the three and Dr. Billings the ace.
