MDFOHl Simmons Captures Club Toga Eddie Simmons, veteran golfer of Rogue Valley Coun try club, turned in a fine com petitive round at the Medford links on Saturday to annex the men's club championship for the fifth time. He defeated Justin Smith 7 and 5 for the crown. It was the first club title in 10 years for the past Ore gon and Southern Oregon champ. Simmons, who led Smith 2 up after Wednesday's 18 hole portion of the match, was three under par Saturday in closing out the contest on the 3l8t hole of a scheduled 36. Smith played even par over the first nine holes of Satur day's action, including an out- of-bounds shot on No. 7 which was regarded as the turning point in the tussle. Birdies Too Late Each of the adversaries had five birds for 18 holes on Sat urday. But three of Smith's were too late. They came aft er the club title tilt was offi cially completed and the two were just playing out the re maining holes of a full round. Simmons, who swatted some wonderful iron shots, birdied No. 1, 3, 9 and 13 holes in Saturday's part of the match. He took a bird on 200-yard No. 9 by barely miss ing a hole in one then closed out with two strokes on the tough par 3 No. 13 which is 191 yards. Smith lagged by four holes after five greens on Saturday. He threatened to get back into contention on No. 6. The long distance hitting Smith drove almost to the green on the par 4 hole and came up with a bird to reduce his deficit to 3 up. It was figured that Smith would be able to use his long blasting ability to pull up some more on No. 7. But, the ball out-of-bounds wrecked that chance. And, this was ironic because Smith won on No. 8, another long distance hole. Another out-of-bounds blow by Smith made the match dormie on Saturday's No. 12 (6 up for Simmons with six to go).
