. Capital Youths Developing as SOME NEW NAMES DUE IN HEADLINES Linksmen Still in School Pre- paring to Oust Oid Heads in Tourneys. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM, VEN while the tournaments about ‘Washington still are being domi- nated by, the same group of men who have been at the top for four or five years back, a group of youngsters are preparing to move in and take their places, and it may not be many years hence when self- same youngsters will usurp the head- lines now dominated by Pitt and Ste- vinson, Peacock and Shorey. The lat- ter two still are youngsters, byt they do not seem to be capable of aking through and winning. The youngsters whose names now are scarcely heard may be able to shatter the supremacy of the old guard. While Harry Pitt can hardly be called an old timer in golf, he is a veteran in point of tournament experience, for the Manor Club ace has been winn! golf tournaments about ‘Washington for five years. Miller B. Stevinson, champion, has been a tournament win- mer for eight or nine years, .and in time has accounted for all the golf events about the Capital through a fine golf game and the well known Stevinson determination to win. The only event that has eluded him is the mid-Atlantic title, which he might have won four years ago at.Washing- ton had he been a bit steadler on the last four holes. Several in High School. Roger Peacock of Indian Spring and John Shorey of Bannockburn are good . enough, as youngsters go, to win any golf event, but they have not come through in the major tournaments. Shorey has won the Bannockburn tour- ney and the Woodmont event, and has been runner-up at Chevy Chase, while Peacock has won the junior title, has been runner-up at Congressional and has won several qualifying rounds. But there is a younger group of golf- ers who two or three years hence may be abls to crash through where Pea- cock and Shorey, Byrn Curtiss, Frank| Roesch and Charlie Cole apparently have been unable to stave off the at- tack of the older guard. Columbia has several promising youngsters not yet out of high school who may be able to make the grade where the boys four or five years their senior have not been able to do so. Out at the big club near Chevy Chase Lake Fred Mc] under his tuelage a couple of young- sters who may develop into lads of the caliber of Roland MacKenzie if they are allowed free rein to develop their goif. They are William Shannon, the 14- yur-usl’d son of President Herbert T. Shannon of the Columbia Country Club. The younger Shannon already gives his dad a real run, and has trounced him several times. Good golf seems to run with the officers of the Columbia Club, for Clyde B. Asher, vice president of the club, has a 16-year-old youngster—Billy Asher—who has come along in good fashion under the watchful eyes of Mc- Leod and gives promise of outstripping his daddy, who is the same man whose game has improved so much this year. John Owens of Columbia is in col- lege, and is a youngster to be reckoned with in any company, while Jack Fowell, a 19-year-old big hitter of the golf ball, can make it hot for any man in any company however fast. Three at Washington. Over at Washington Tommy Webb, gon of Dr. T. D. Webb, seems about Teady to cash in on the promise of two years ago, while Jimmie Drain, the son of Ralph A. Drain, has ome back from the University of Chicago with the same fine golf game that promised two years ago to become one of the best around Washington. Charles Evans, jr., namesake of the famous “Chick” of Chicago, isn’t quite so good with the irons as the affable veteran from the shores of Lake Michigan, but he is good enough to win. Just the day he played the first nine at Washington | i 32 strokes, which is nothing less than four strokes under par.

SEEDED NETMEN - WIN N ARMY PLAY Van Vet Opposes Hedekin, Strahan Plays Rdbinson in Semi-Finals. —_— EEDED netmen continued their onslaught toward the finals yes- terday in the Army champion- ship tennis matches at the Co- lumbia Country Club with all four of the ranking courtmen winning handily. Maj. R. C. Van Vliet, defending title holder and Army champion for the past two years, pounded out an easy victory over Maj. Hills, 6—1, 6—1. In the most hotly contested match of the afternoon Lieut. Hedekin, seeded No. 4 player, downed Maj. Robertson in two hard-fought sets, 6—4, 7—5. Lieut. Strahan, No. 2 player, defeated Maj. Finley, 6—3, 6—1, while Lieut. Robin- son won over Maj. Hobbs, 6—1, 6—32, in the other singles match. Favorites in the doubles play won in impressive fashion, likewise advancing to the semi-final rounds. Maj. Van Vliet, together with his Inl crushed their opposition for the second time in two days. The Col. Collins-Capt. Crane team could offer little in the way of serious competition to the title holders. In the only match not decided in straight sets, Lieuts. Mathews and Lewis defeated the Maj. Hobbs-Capt. Christenberry team, 6—4, 1—6, 6—3. . Robinson and Lieut. Hedekin downed Lieut. Strahan and Maj. Jen- kins in straight sets, 11—9, 6—2. Play will continue tomorrow, bring- ing together Maj. Van Vliet, tourney favorite, and Lieut. Hedekip in the semi-final round. The winnfr of this match will meet either Lieut. Strahan or Lieut. Robinson, who also meet to- morrow in the semi-finals. Play will begin at 2:30 p.m. The singles finals will be run off Tues- day, while on Wednesday the doubles semi-finals will be played.

Henry Park first nine recently, would seem to show. | Ro: Out at Congressional Luther Steward, Jr., has come back from the University of 'Virginia with a fine golf game which may give Page Hufty and Clarence Murfihy some trouble, and at Rock Creek Park a fine youngster is coming along in the person of Addison Love- less, a protege of Al Houghton, pro at the Harper Country Club. In this lot there may be a Roland MacKenzie. For Roland, long before he was out of high school, was ‘'winning tournaments about Washington and already was pre- E;lng for the triumphs that came to about the time he entered college. Usually if a youngster is not d enough to win when he is about college age, he'is not apt to be a big winner. Perhaps some of these youngsters of high dchool age and less may come along and be tournament winners. It is in the tournaments that skill is de- veloped, and only in the flerce fire of competition is that searing test of nerve and eourage engendered.

AKMONT, Pa., June 28.—George T. Duniap, jr, was only a Princeton student this morn- ing, but this afternoon he was & super-golfer, coming from behind in one of the most sensational rallies in any first-grade competition to win the intercollegiate championship of America. He defeated Lawrence Moller, Notre Dame, 5 up and 4 to play. After the East Orange, N. J., youth had been on the defensive all day against the steady golf of Moller he rose in his might in the afternoon to win seven straight holes and change his status from 5 down to 2 up. After that he was never headed. Mol- ler, a stocky, serious lad from Quincy, Staing. b against. the barrade of 35 and F up rrage of 3s an 4s laid down by the Tiger from Old Nassau. Starts Off Poorly. Dunlap went to luncheon four down after the first 18 holes of the 36-hole match. His start in the afternoon round could har have been worse. For the first time a week's 'glll he sent his tee-shot at the nineteen! flvytnx out of bounds.and with a penalty of stroke and distance he was 3 affer his second drive. With the second ball he scored a he was charged with 7, while Moller was down in par 5 and was 5 up. .There was no thought then that the big gallery was about to see a near miracle of golf. Had any one suggested that the Princeton boy would not lose another hole he would have been laughed to scorn. George played the twentieth in par 4 while his Notre Dame opponent took three putts for a 5. At the twenty- first Dunlap bagged a birdie 3 and fol- lowed with a birdie 4 at the 536-yard twenty-second. A par 4 was just enough to win the twenty-third and a birdie 2 at the 187-yard twenty-fourth squared the match. Gains on Twenty-fifth.

Moller pitched well out, but Dunlap elected to run the ball t! h the sand with a putter. It stop eight feet from the cup and he holed the putt for a par 5, to 6 for Moller. At the short thirty-first Dunlap's iron from the tee left him pin high, but Moller’s ball found a trap. George holed out for a par 3 while Larry took 4 and the beginding of the end was in sight. ‘At the deciding hole Moller was far in front from the tee. Dunlap pitched on, 20 feet from the cup, while Moller's great approach rolled to within six feet of the pin. Dunlap sent his putt spin- ning home for a birdle 3 and Moller missed for the half. One Under Par. For the 14 holes played in the after- noon Punlap was one stroke under par on one of the most exacting golf courses in existence. Dunlap is the first Princeton man to win the championship since J. Simpson Dean took the title in 1921. The first championship, played in 1897, was won by a Princetonian, Louis P. Bayard. Moller is the first Notre Dame stu- dent to play in the championship. Fer a newcomer he did well, reaching the ! final of the champlonship, winning the qualifying medal and being elected president of the association. £ /LOUIS KANE GETS HOLE IN ONE AT BELLE HAVEN ALEXANDRIA, Va.
