HAMILTON, Ont. July 18 —- (OPJ-l-‘rank Stranahan success- fully defended his Canadian amat- eur golf championship Saturday with a dazzling display o1 skill. brushing off the challenge -of Hamilton's Joe Stoddard. nine up and seven to go.

There was little sensational about the first IB-ihole half of the match. played in the morning. when the British amateur champ from ‘Toledo, 0., shot. one-over par golf-a 71—to take a three-up lead.

But in the afternoon. the 25- year-old defending champion siz- zled. i-le won six of 11 holes to end the match on the 29th. I-Ie shot five birdies and six pars. He was three under par on the first nine- hoies in the afternoon and two under on the remaining two holes. Even on the 430-yard 11th hole. rated as one'of the toughest par fours on the continent. he came in wit-h a birdie t ee.

A red-hot put er basis for Stranahanu afternoon success. He was dropping them with ease frcm almost any distance. His tee shots. as always. were down the centre of the narrow fairways. His second shots almost hit the green. On the short holes he smacked his tee shots virtually pin- high.

The players offered contrast on the course. slx-foot-five. at times affably chatted with spectators. At other times his nerves seemed to get the better of him and often he sat on the edge of the green, hunched over. his head in his hands, as Stranahan made his shots.
