Quite Well,
It may be of significance to golfers
in general that the two men who hold
the professional and amateur records
of the Skokie where the na-
tional open championship is to be de
cided July 11 and following days, are
the palr who know the course better
than any other players, Philip Gau-
din, the home professional, has the
low mark, a 68, Par is 70, and the
only amateur who hag ever equaled it
is J. T. Ling, chairman of the greens
committee. Abe Mitchell played a star
game round at Skokie last year, re
cording 60, and that ends the list of
low scores over that circuit. In other
