Campbell SPORTS EDITOR Champion Gerry Magee Faces Stern Challenge Sports The Times-Gazette There's a well-known savisg in 8 , that is applied chiefly in e fight game, but it apparently holds good in golf as well -- "Don't bet against the champ'! Ontario amateur golf champion Gerry Magee, a big, rangy guy from the Lambton club, who per- forms with skill and poise that belles his mere 22 years, advanced to the semi-finals in defense of his title, as the 4th and 5th rounds of leted a the tour t were the Oshawa Golf Club yesterday. Magee came out with a gizzling brand of golf in the 4th round yes- terday morning to eliminate Jim Currie' of London Highlands, 6 and|G 4, The match ended abruptly on the 14th hole when Magee uncorked a drive that was well over the 250-yard mark and then lofted a 90-yard wedge shot straight at the pin and into the hole, for an eagle two, on the par four hole. It was Magee's second eagle of the tour- ney. Magee had his toughest match of the week in the 5th round and had to display some of the best golf he has shown, to beat out Gary Cowan, the 17-year-old sen- sation from Kitchener Rockway, and 1. Magee birdied the 4th, 5th and 7th holes, was still only two up at the 14th and halved the next| three. Young Cowan, who had been one of the most sparkling performers of the week, defeated Bill Bowen of Niagara Falls in the morning round, 5 and 4. MAGEE AND COOLE It will be Magee and Ray Coole 'of Hamilton Glendale in one semi- final bracket this morning. Coole, by name and by nature, climinated Phil Brownlee, of Scar- boro, the 15-year-old sensation of the tournament, yesterday morn- ing, 4 and 3. Brownlee birdied the 10th hole to square the match and halved the 11th, but Coole got hot 5) t|after 12 holes, Nash perked up as Brownlee cooled out, taking the next four holes. In the 5th round, Coole ousted the veteran Jack Nash of London Hunt, 6 and 5. Nash, who had to go to the 21st hole to win morning game, didn't have it in the afternoon. He won only the 9th hole in the 13 holes and over this same distance, Coole used the amazing total of only 17 putts. Jay Wagstaff of Thornhill was Nash's vicitim in the morning overtime session. Down three, to win the 13, 14, and 15th holes fo square the match and they halved the next five, before Nash won out on the 21st. IVEN GOOD CHANCE Jack Lowery of St. Catharines, will be the youngest player still in the running when the semi- finals get under way. The 20-year-old shot-maker with the methodical style and long hesi- tation on his putts, is considered by many tq have the best chance of anyone, if Magee is to be de- throned. Lowery continued the sparkling play he has shown all week, to oust George Eluck .of Windsor Roseland 4 and 3 in the morning round and then out in the afternoon to defeat Bill Parkes of Woodstock, an Ontario Willingdon Cup team nominee, 3 and 2. Parkes was down four after seven holes but won the 8th -- then they halved the next eight as Lowery held Parkes at bay with cool, precision golf. Parkes had advanced to the 5th round by tak- ing the measure of Weston's Gor- don Ball in the morning round, 3 and 2. LAST MATCH KEEN The last match in both the morn- ing and afternoon rounds, proved to be the keenest in each case, with Bill Windsor, Roseland's Bill Harrison tasting the fruits of vie- tory and dregs of defeat, in that order. In the morning round, Harrison beat out Doug McKellar of Scar- his the 20th and that was that, i A Ws a Gg boro on the 20th hole. Harrison had and then McKellar three-putted Bruce Castator of Weston beat out Harison for a berth in. the semi-finals, when they met in the afternoon. match see-sawed with Harrison winning the 16th to move one up. They halved the 17th and then-on the 18th, Harrison muffed on the green. Harison was on in two, barely, but he made the fatal mistake of being too heavy with his first putt--rolling seven feet past the hole--and then he missed this one by a fraction. Castator rolled it close with his first putt and then sank his ball to tie the match. They went three more holes before Castator finally ended the match with a birdie, Castator defeated Ken Thorpe of Forest Hill, the left-handed shot: maker, in the morning round. Thorpe failed to win a hole in the |g 13 played, as it ended 7 and 5. |§ PRESS, RADIO ON HAND Golf in general and the Oshawa Club in particular, is receiving a great boost from this year's tour- nament, with press and radio giv- ing the play extensive coverage.

"Moe" Norman, earlier in the week, opined that the Oshawa course, considered short in terms of tournament sites, was not too tough, being only "a tee shot and wedge" affair. But the importance of the wedge shots --not to mention the putting--has been brought home to Norman and a lot of other contestants, especially as the tension mounted.
