4 THE SUNDAY STAR, 'WASHINGTON, D. C. Columbia Course to Have “Grand Opening”: Duckpin Tourney List to Set Record “WSTERY” AFFAIR ON CARD APRIL 24 Three Greens; Closed Since Last Fall, to Be Opened on Gala Occasion. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. CONSIDERABLE air of mys- tery—and not a little expecta- | tion—surrounds the grand opening of the Columbia Coun- try Club golf course, scheduled for Wednesday, April 24. Chairman George P. James of the golf committee of the club and his associates—Donald Woodward, Albert | R. MacKenzie, Hugh H. Saum and Lee Eynon—are keeping the details of the affair strictly under cover, promising a schedule of surprise golf affairs that will enlist the interest and enthusiasm of every member who participates. One of the first items on the program is to be the official opening of three new greens—the fourth, fifth and six- teenth—which have been closed to play by the membership since last Fall, while undergoing reconstruction. The other details—regarding the actual golf af- fairs—are being withheld, but from one source close to the committee comes the word that a driving contest with novel and entertaining features is one of the scheduled events. Last year a Scotch foursome event was held, and while some of the members tried to laugh it down, when originally announced, they remained to admire and compete. Circular Tells Little. This year & comprehensive circular, telling little of concrete information, ! but promising much, has been sent to | the membership. It reads as follows: “All golfers, those who think they are and those who know they are not, are requested to be on hand to partici- | pate in the stupendous events to be offered. “Prizes. “Test your skill. “Know your fellow members. | “Smile upon Nature's beautiful offer- ing. (No, you are wrong, it is some- thing else.) “Sing_with the locking birds (wal have a lot of ’em on our membership list) rink the pure ozone and crystal ‘water from our silver springs. “Gambol on the sward. “Gamble on the green (if the other fellow is willing and you want to). | “Come all ye faithful—come one,| come all; come to the club in the wild- wood and help make it wilder. “First call 11 a.m, Second call, 11:05 am. “Other calls each and every 5 min- utes thereafter, up to but not later than 2 p.m. (Penalty, disqualification.) “Make no plans. Make no engage- ments.” Monthly Tourneys Listed. In addition to the grand opening, the golf committee at Columbia announces monthly tournaments to be held dur- ing May, June, July and August, under the following conditions: Entries must be made on the sheet provided for that purpose on the bulle- tin board, for each event. g Players may qualify any day during the month preceding each monthly; event, entries closing the last day of each month. Each putt must be holed and each card properly attested. Flay- ers may submit as many cards as they | desire, but only the lowest card will be used as the basis for pairing. c The 16 lowest net scores will con-| stitute the first 16, the next lowest 16 scores the second 16 and so on. Should the last group of cards constitute less | Leverton, than eight players such cards_shall not be deemed to have qualified. Match play shall be observed handicap al- lowance on basis of full number of S strokes in accordance with score cards. The first round may be played any day during, but must be completed by the last day of the first week of the month of the current tournament. Players ust arrange their own matches, which may be played in two, three or four ball matches; the second, third and fourth rounds shall be played in like manner during the second, third | gi3} and fourth weeks. It will be the duty of each contestant to make an honest | Beax effort to arrange a date for matches convenient to his opponent—should no date satisfactory to both parties be ar- rived at, the committee will decide who shall default. U. S. G. A. rules will apply except where they conflict with | local or rules applying to three or four ball matches. A separate circular will be issued covering the annual club invitation tournament, which will be played June, 12, 13, 14 and 15. 1 OLD DOMINION QUINTET ALEXANDRIA CHAMPION ALEXANDRIA, - April 6—0ld Do- minion Boat Club won the champion- ship of the Alexandria Unlimited Class Basket Ball League by defeating Hoff- man Clothiers, 26 to 22, in an extra- period game in -the armory here to- night. %vuh 30 seconds to play Cabell shot & floor goal to tie the count at 22-all.

LIGHTBOWN, formerly mayor of Palm Beach, Fla., who has been one of the prominent golffing members of the Congressional Country Club for several years, has been named chairman of the golf and grounds com- mittee at Congressional. He succeeds Guy Mason, who has been named chair- man of the tournament committee. Last year the two committees were under the golf and grounds committee, Immediately on his appointment Lightbown began the planting of shrubbery around the clubhouse and along the road leading to the club. He also authorized the transfer of the starter's house to a point opposite the first tee, and secured Charles Penna of New York, brother of Tony Penna, assistant club professional, as the starter. Archie Clark, who has been caddie master and starter for two years, has been promoted to assistant professional and clubmaker. Lightbown has been prominent in club tournaments at Congressional for the past two years, and has been a member of the golf and grounds com- mittee. He is quite a good golfer him- self, although not a man who equals par for the round. Mason expects to anncunce shortly the club tournament schedule for the season. A match between two club cham- pions and two assistant professionals at Bannockburn and Manor is to be played during the week. A. P. Strobel. club champion of Bannockburn, is to pair with Claggett Stevens, assistant pro and clubmaker, against Robert C.Hird, Manor champion, and Charles Stevens, assistant pro at Manor. The assistant professionals are brothers. President Arthur B. Thorn of the Mid- dle Atlantic Professional Golfers’ Asso- ciation announces that a large group of golfers are coming to the Town and Country Club from Richmond and near- | by Virginia points to compete in the 18-hole sweepstakes tcurney to be held | at the Bethesda club tomorrow. In addition, most of the professional golf- ers from Baltimore will make the trip to Town and Country to take part in the first tourney of the year of the professional association. A schedule of golf evenis will be arranged for the season and the association will decide | on places and dates for its open championship, which usually is held | in the Fall. ‘Thorn has been carefully grooming the course in preparation for the event, and it is in first-class condition. The new tees built on eight of the nine holes will not be in use tomorrow. N h, |'will meet at the clubhouse at noon Head of Golf Senior golfers of the Chevy Chase Club next Friday to elect officers of the Seniors’ Golf Association and - decide on a schedule of events for the sea- son, A seniors’ tournament will be held at 18 holes medal play, with handicaps, on Friday and Saturday. . Several tournaments are to be held throughout the season, while a ringer tourney will start April 12 and end October 26. The first big exhibition match of the season, sumng the famed best ball pair from Indian Spring—J. Monro Hunter and George Diffenbaugh—will be played next Sunday over the course of the Washington Golf and Country Club, with a return engagement billed for the following Sunday at Indian Spring. Hunter and Diffenbaugh, who never have been defeated in local com- petition, will play against Maurice J. McCarthy and Walter R. McCallum, amateur golfers of the Washington Club. McCarthy is the present holder of the intercollegiate golf title. Town and Country Club members are competing today in an 18-hole handi- cap tourney, the first event of the x;ilts;n, arranged by the club golf com- e, Chairman R. F. Garrity of the Manor Club golf committee hopes to secure Roland R. MacKenzie for the exhibition match on May 19, which will mark the | official opening of the new nine-hole course. If MacKensie is not able to play, he will secure another nromlnent! local amateur to complete the foursome. Other members of the quartet are Harry G. Pitt, Miller B. Stevinson and Maurice Jl.flMcc-rthy, all holders of champion- ships. _More than 30 professionals from Vir- ginia, Maryland and clubs about Wash- ington are expected to compete in the 18-hole sweepstakes tourney tomorrow afterncon at the Town and Country Club. The tourney was postponed from last Monday at the request of the Balti- more pros. A meeting of the Middle At- lantfc Professional Golfers’ Association will precede the golf tourney. Notwithstanding three missed putts of less than four feet in length, Alex Ar- mour, the new professional at Congres- sional, scored a 68 over his home course Thursday. Armour’s nines were 36 and 32, and he blew three short patts dur- in the round he played with John Cole. His pitch shots were consistently ac- curate and left him little to do on the greens. The greens, however, had not | been cut, and Armour had trouble get- | ting the ball up to the hole.
