"Few thought the kid with the caddie had even an outside chance against two famous British golfers who had played in so many British Opens. A good many of Ouimet's friends J. thought I was too young and too small to caddie in an event so important. They insisted on some older caddie, but Francis held out for me." "I'll pick the story here for a moment," Ouimet cut in. "Next morning, a short while before the 'You won't want to hit any practice shots, will you?' he asked, knowing that I seldom did. I said, 'No. Eddie then said. I'll see you in about half an hour.' "Where are you going?" I asked. "We start in a few utes.' 'I'll tell you later.' Eddie an- swered as he hustled away. As we were all three ready to drive off I looked around again and there was Eddie. " 'Where have you been?" I asked him. " "I didn't want to bother yon," be whispered, 'but I've been hiding in that barn. There's a truant on- cer after me to take me back to school so I had to keen out of his sight.

They had expected the inkid to crack experienced wide open. But here he was cooler than ever. He didn't watch their drives. He Just kept playing his own game. Then on the tenth hole both Vardon and Ray took three putts and Ouimet was out in front. "They all played fine golf tbe nest few holes, and then big Ted Ray was the first to break op.

The two veterans couldn't stand up against that finishing 34 under such conditions, especially when they had locked for a certain runaway." "That must have been a big drill. I said to Lowery.

My brother went back to school, but I played hookey again and carried Ouimet's bag. I had to keep an eye on Ouimet's ball and also on the lookout for truant officers, who were pretty keen. "I'll never forget the' last three holes of the last round," Eddie continued. "Francis had to play these in 10 strokes, one under par, to get a tie with Vardon and Ray, who had already finished. On the short sixteenth Francis had a putt for a two. This seemed a good chance to go for that birdie. But he was too bold, and the first putt ran eight feet by the cup. But he holed that one for his three. On the seventeenth he holed another 15 or for the needed birdie and then through pouring rain got his par four on the last hole which resulted in the now famous triple tie."
