day to take a one-stroke lead in
the second round of the -72-hole
Pacific Northwest Golf Assn. tour
nament. Steelsmith had toured the long
Inglewood course in 75 on Monday
for a 143 total. Tuesday, he scored
six birdies on the 6,537 yard course
and went over par only once.
rGeorge Beechler, first-day, lead
er from Ontario, Ore., slipped from
Monday's 69 to a 73 but it still
kept him in a three-way tie or
second with Harry Givan, Seattle,
who had a 73-71, and Dick Yost,
Seattle, at 72-72.
Tal Smith, San Lorenzo, Calif.,
Lyle Crawford, Vancouver, B. C,
and Rod Funseth, Spokane, were
next with 143s.
Erv Parent, Seattle, was alone
at 146. Grouped at 147 were Jim
Shriver and Jim Mallory, Seattle,
and Bob Roos, San Francisco. Roos
tied Beechler's 68 Tuesday but had
a 79 on his first round. '
Steelsmith. previously virtually
unnoticed achieved a. top rating
with his spectacular performance
and a quick look at the record
book indicated he is worth watch
ing. The Glendale College sopho
more is the Southern California
amateur champion, with a straight
shot that keeps him out of trouble
and a dead eye putter. . N ,
Givan looked hot until he blew
up on the 133-yard 12th hole, where
he double - bogied himself into
second place. Uis card included
five birdies. Yost1 chalked tip 17
pars and one birdie, dropping in
a 30-foot putt on the 13th.
Beechler was even with par
through the first nine then bogied
on the 10th and 16th to wind up
