VETERANS' GOLF

tourney opens QUALIFYING ROUND FOR TO-DAY'S CUP PLAY GOOD CARDS RETURNED Taken by and large, the scores put up by the older players in the Rotorua Veterans' Cup tourney which opened yesterday morning were much steadier than those put up by the players in the first day of the championship, and with handicaps talcen off, some fine cards were turned in. In the morning, J. Seadgowing who plays off a 24 handicap, returned a card which worked out at 64 nett, closely followed by A. W. Downer (handicap 21) 67 nett, W. O'Callaghan (2) 68 nett, and P. Pittar (20) 69. H. B. Lusk' returned two fine cards a 74 and a 73, but A. W. Downer on his handicap headed the list with two 88's (nett 67 making 134 for which he was rehandicapped 2 strokes). Downer got the best aggregate, and L. H. Rogers won the second medal round. Seadgowing won the morning trophy. The holder of the Veterans' Cup, W. D. Ross, of Hamilton, struck all sorts of trouble and failed to qualify in the first 32 returning a card of 165.
