Just as the late morning start- is on the local courses were nearing the end of the round. and whii> the afternoon starters were contemplating a game under lowering skies, out of a dark cloud in the west swept a flurry of snow that developed into a good imitation of a blizzard for the few minutes that it lasted. In the short space of time the snow whirled and beat over the local courses, it lay nearly an inch thick, covering putting greens and fairways with a white layer that made golf almost an impessibility. A few hardy players struggled out through the snow yes- terday afternoon, wrapped up in bun- dles of sweaters, their feet encased in rubbers and goloshes, to return to the clubhouse convinced that snow-bound play is more exercise than golf. ‘Through the thick of the snowstorm, while the eighteenth green was almost obscured from the clubhouse, only 40 yards away, W. S. Warner ran down a 30-foot putt to halve a match at Wash- ington. By the time his ball reached the cup it had picked up enough snow to make it almost too large to enter the hole. And immediately thereafter Robert A. Dougan holed a 10-foot putt under the same conditions. W. Howard, a member of the Washington board of governors, went out to the Virginia club yesterday after having been forced to suspend golf for urney Great Boost to Sport, Duckpinners Hold STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE more than a month, due to business rea« sons. He had played only four hales when the snowstorm enveloped tus match and he quit. Another party that refused to fight the snowstorm included Senator McNary. Just before the storm broke Comav. C. T. Lyons, U. S. N., knocked his sec- ond shot into the water ditch whica crosses the fifteenth fairway at Wash- ington, where his ball lay two inches under the water. Standing on a pre- carious perch of rocks and slippery grass, he took a niblick and knocked the ball on the green, 130 yards awey, raising a_shower of water 20 feet in height. No, he didn't hole the putt, but his 5 was good enough to halve, Chairman Paxton of the Washington golf committee plans to hold a tourna- ment on Thanksgiving day, if the weather is fair enough to hope for a sizable entry list.
