Myers, who himself at one point had been eighth, ended up 23-13. Myers went 23-13. Gibbs was third at 21.5- 14.5. McKim, who never led this time around, ended up fifth at 21-7. He was followed by Dane Clark, who was 18.5-14.5, Jerome Kennedy, who was 15- 15, Chuck Poole at 14-12 and Wayne Lawton 13-14. Eugene Davis and Richard Thompson were both tied at 10th, the first with a record of 9-6, the second at 9-2. Frank Jordan (8.5-6.5) was 12th, John Rackley 13th (7.5- 13.5) Doyle Johnson 14th (6-0), Alma McKim 15th (5.5-8.5), Jan Collier 16th (5- 4), Marge Jordan 17th (4.5- 10.5) Maureen Thompson and Marlee Shock both 18th (4-4 and 4-2, respectively).
