Scotland has won the Miller-Stirling salver after a nail-biting finish. They beat the North by 6 - 3 which was the product of a regrouping and a re-attacking which one Scottish on-looking gent declared was something our football team should learn from. Having got 2/1 in the morning foursomes all that was needed was three points from the singles and whereas at one point this may have looked feasible, halfway through, Captain Pamela Williamson had changed into a ranging loony - is one allowed to say that? - as she wandered from one hole to the next trying to gather up possible points as they seemed to be slipping away. But slender leads were hung on to, dormie situations turned into halves and May Hughes serenely brought up the rear oblivious of what was transpiring elsewhere - she had the most glorious birdie four at the sixteenth (which in general rendered most people into quivering wrecks) to make the situation all the safer by becoming dormie two.
