A number of the entrants failed to turn up and about 30 golfers contested the event.
The field included a number of English professionals including Bill Branch, Tom Collinge, Archie Compston, Bill Davies, Ted Jarman and Mark Seymour, two Irish professionals, Paddy Mahon and Willie Nolan, and the Spaniard, Ángel de la Torre.
Paddy Mahon scored 72 in the opening round to lead by a stroke.
