tho United States. who have seven left out of 11. Two of those get

out firing a shot, thanks to byes and defaults.

The five Canadians who won their way into the third round had comfortable margins for the most part, while two others were getting past the first round in belated matches.

In third round matches tomorrow. however, Edwin Innes of lidontreai clashes with Dr. Tweddell of Stour- bridge, who won the amateur eight years ago and captained Great Britain against American in 1928. ,

Ken Black of Vancouver, meets Tony ‘Ihrrance o1 the Royal and Ancient. and Dick Moore oi Van- couver, goes out with Holden, who is no set-up.

Bud Donovan of WTDIHPQC» and Phil Farley of Toronto, look to have easier matches. with J. B. Beddard ofstaffordshire and Capt. A. Bullock-Webster of Montcrey, Cal. respectively.

The two other Canadian chal- bnflors have yet to get past the second round. and Goldie Taylor of Montreal has thei toughest es-
