Army and Navy golf tourna- ment, open to wives and daughters of all officers sta- tioned in Washington at pres- ent, will be inaugurated over the course at Washington Barracks early in September, according to word from the Army War College Officers’ Club, under whose auspices the event will be staged. It was at the suggestion of Maj. Gen. Hanson Ely, commandant, and Col. Walter Sweeney, head of the offi. cérs’ club golf committee, that the tournament was extended to include the fair golfers of the Navy and Marine Corps, making it an all-serv- ice event. The officers’ club at the Barracks boasts the only course on a post in this vicinity and the courtesy of this layout will be extended to the women for the affair with privileges of the clubhouse in addition. Mrs. Chayles M. Bundel of Wash- Ington Barracks is chairmam of the tournament committee. Mrs. Evan Humphrey and Mrs. Lawrénce H. Hedrick will serve with her. Suitable prizes will be offered the winner and runner-up as well as the high medalist in the qualifying round and probable consolation win- ners ag well. Several trophies will be presented by the club, others will be obtained by the committee, a small entry fee being charged to cover the cost ¢f these. Should the affair prove as popular as is generally. expected, it probably will become an annual event at the War College, Scattered throughout the city are many golf enthusiasts stationed here for a more or less limited length of time, who, the committee believes, would find such a gathering a source of much pleasure. Notice of the tournament will be posted at the War College, in the State, War and Navy Department and at the Navy Yard, in an effort to reach all who might desire to compete, Detailed information as to the date of the event, the filing of entries and the rules governing play will be pub- lished later in the week, following the next meeting of the committee. Field and water day promises to be 4 big day for the Girl Scouts at Fort Foote, the new encampment for local Scouts on_the Potomac. Next Friday, August 19, every Scout in camp will be called upon to do her bit on track and fleld or in the water. An interesting program of events has been arranged by the counsellor committee in charge, which includes Elizabeth Mueller, ath- letic counsellor; Margaret Jones, water counsellor; Caroline Hobbs, as. sistant_water counsellor; Janet Rich- ards, Josephine Ross, Lucille Brund- age, TLucille Weber and Josephine Stanton. ‘Water events wilf include a single oar race, tandem row, one-paddle canoe race and two-paddle canoe race. Only those Scouts will be eligible who have pass® life-saving and boat tests. Fleld events will provide sports for all. Basket ball, dodge and volley ball games wil be played as well as quoits. In the track, there will be 50 and 75 yard dashes and novelty races, in addition to the standing broad jump and basket ball throw for distance. Dorothy Greene, acting director will be in charge, assisted by Janet Strite: hoff and Elizabéth Bennett. Situated high on a bluff, hidden by magnificent old trees, the Girl Scout camp, there ig discovered an amphi- tions possible for the purpose to which it has been adapted. In a shady glen inland from the ¢am p,there is discovered an amphi- theater of unique beauty, a relic of the old days. In this spot on September 3 the Scouts will hold their annual pageant, depicting the spirit of camp life, ath. letic activitles and Scout training. This will be followed by a banquet at which will be presented trophles and letters to those winning honors in athletics and scouting during the Sum- Clara Cecarelll woh the 1927 quoits championship of Arthur playground yesterday, defeating Gladys Kitchen, 21-19, 21-20 in the final match.
