1926
Lester Bolstad,
a student at the University of Minnesota, defeated Carl. F. Kauffmann, of
Pittsburgh, 3 and 2, in the final at Grover Cleveland Park, Buffalo. At
the time of his victory, Bolstad was 18 years 3 months of age.
Richard J. Walsh, the 1923 Champion won the medal with 73-73-146, and
the qualifying deadline dropped to 155. Chicago won its second team championship
with another new low of 608. McAuliffe, like Coble, had turned professional
and did not defend.
