All-Star Shoe Scrap DUFFERLESS EVENT SLATED SATURDAY Champion Henry Adopts Cow as Mascot—Class Tells at Silver Spring. NE of thé good things that come in small packages will be the Falls Church preliminary of the metro- politan district horseshoe cham- ionsips, sponsored by The Star, be held next Saturday, starting at 2:30 p.m. There are only 10 entrants, but every one is a select performer. At Jeast five are strong candidates for the championship 'of Northern Virginia and several of these have designs on the | metropolitan crown. Direction Is Due To Perfeet Timing BY SOL METZGER. Ever watch big Archie Compston golf? He's the British pro who socked Hagen for & row of goals in o specisl match a few years ago. My, he sure can wallop them off the tee. Got perfect direction, too. He's not like so many of us, always plunking them into traps. One marvels at his sense of direc- tion. It's due to perfect timing. 1N ALL FULL 6HOTS THE. HANDS AND CLUBHEAD ARE. ON PLANE. Af RIGHT ANGLE.S 70 HOLE AT CONTACT f Enzer L. Brandon, the chairntan, has | secded the draw and if he has guessed | well, George C. Thompson, Ed Henry, | R. E. Darnes, J. E. Darnes and Brandon | will win their first round matches. After that the competition should be touch 'and go. | First round pairings follow: George | C. Thompson vs. J. R. Royston, Ed Henry vs. Otto Von Herbulls, E. E. Darnes vs. O. B. Livingston, J. E. Darnes vs. R. E. Schofield and E. L. Brandon vs. A. J. Major. OMMANDING more than one man's share of ~attention in the Falls Church tournament will be the colorful and not infrequently spectac- ular Ed Henry, the defending champion. Chairman Brandon and George C. Thompson, whose court will be used, held up the tournament for a week or | more while Henry had a sick eye doc- tored at the Veterans’ Bureau. The lamp is only 50 per cent effective pow, but Ed saw the pegs well enough | the other night to put on 22 ringers in | 8 50-point game with Thompson: and six of them were double-headers, Henry winning, 50 to 29. He got hot again in & match with San Darrnes, hut wasn't | hot enough to win, Darnes taking the odd game in three, Together they chalked up 120 ringers, /an individual average of 20 8 game. _ Says Henry: “I expéct to adopt my | ather’s black milk cow for a mascot, ading her by the chain to the scene of strife. The idea is to ‘cow’ the opposition, and this is no bull.” “Those outlanders you wrote about | who are averaging 17 ringers a game| will have to raise their ante. The elite| in the Falls Church sector rarely go| below 20.” % CL\SS is beginning to tell in the Silver Spring tournament which is | in the second rgund.: None other than the chairman, Brooke Grubb, was| among those who fell by the wasside last night, but he went down fighting, # 50 to 48 victim of E. Brackdorn. Among the most promising candi- dates for the Silver Spring title are Edgar Harvey, Lawrence Clark, John Schrider and yo George Snable. 8o far they have pitched best. Clark, incidentally, last night elim- ted the 1929 champion of Sandy pring, Townsend Howes, 52 to 25. A. McCabe defeated C. Edgar Harvey defeated R. Burke, 52-4; R.

Beach |y, UT at Rock Creek Park some- thing like 200 golfers have en- tered & competition for a tro- phy, put up by a Washington | store, which is to start tomorrow and end August 4. The tourney is a blind handicap affair, at 18 holes medal play, and is open to all golfers, regardless of club affiliations. Each entrant will be given a sealed envelope before he starts, in which will be contained the handicap under which he will play. The handicap will not be known until he finishes his round. It may be that one of the leading players at Rock Oreek will draw & handicap of 18, which is the maximum, but that is something that rests on the knees of the gods. Luck seems to be the main factor in the tourney. “That's hot golf on a hot day.” The speaker was Monro Hunter, the tall professional at Indian Spring, who sat on the sidelines yesterday at his own course and watched Nalph Beach and Arthur B. Thorn burn up the Indian Spring course to win the two places awarded to the Middle Atlantic section in the gullllylnz round of the Profes- sional Golfers’ Assoclation champion- ship. Beach, who learned the game as a caddie at the Washington Golf and Country Club and now is the profes- sional at the Suburban Club of Bal- timore, contributed the finest bit of golf ever witnessed about the Capital, playing the 36 holes in the blistering heat in a total of 136 strokes, which is six better than par. His rounds were 69 and 67, and in the last round he missed & 12-foot putt on the final green to tie the professional record for the course, hekr by Hunter. His 67 tied the amateur record, made by Miller Stevinson in 1927 and tied last year by George J. Voigt. Thorn's score of 142 was exactly par for the double circuit of the lengthy layout. His rounds were 73 and 69, and about the only difference between his me and that of Beach was Thorn's ish on the last three holes, both morning and afternoon. In the morn- ing Thorn finished with two 5s, where par would have given him a 70, and in the afterncon he finished 6, 4, 4, where the par of 5, 3, 4 would have given him a 67. This pair finished down in front of 24 prafessional stars of the Midatlantic section, including Roland Hancock, Glenn ‘Spencer, the big hitter of Bal- timore. Beach's score is far and away the best ever recorded in a 36-hole test in this part of the country. Two years ago Tommy Armour, Congressional ace, playing in a similar qualifying round over the same course, scored a brace of 70s, which some thought was somewhat of a record. That Indian Spring course stretches out to more than 6,500 yards from the | back tees, which did not mean so much yesterday, with baked fairways. But 89 and 67 on any man’s course is noth- ing short of miracle golf. Beach 'adopted 8 unique method, something some of the other boys for- got to try. He knocked the ball far and straight on the shortest line from tee to green and simply knocked it in the hole without any fuss and feathers. ‘The situation at the end of the first round stood like this: Beach and Warner Mather were tied for the lead at 69, with Bob Barnett and George Diffenbaugh bracketed at 72, while Bill Carson of East Potomae Park, Hancock of Lynchburg and Thorn of Woodmont were at 73. Glenn Spencer and Al Houghton had 74. In the afternoon Beach, Mather and Diffenbaugh went out in a threesome, after Fred McLeod withdrew, and the struggle seemed to lay among them for | the two places. But Thorn had some- | thing to say about this. Beach picked up an eagle 3 on the lsmthy uveufldhnlo to get out in 33. fen h the same score and so did Thorn. Mather, who went enth and thirtee: ‘h\( trapped, and Beach kept steadily onm, knocking over par after par and get- ting an occasional birdie. At the twenty-seventh hole, Beach was 102, Mather and Diffenbaugh were 105, and Thorn was 106. And Diffen- baugh, who looked like a sure thing to qualify, wilted at the short fourteenth, where he finally got on the green in four shots and tcok a 6. That and the tee shot he put out of bounds at the sixteenth finished him, leaving the track wide open for Thorn. And even though the Woodmont pro took & 6 at the long sixteenth, which he three utted, and a 4 at the seventeenth, enbaugh had left too much of a “g'uch came to the eighteenth, 15 & 8 for & 66. e & bid for his 12-footer, but it hit the cup and stayed out.

FACING PROBLENS INSAVING REENS Clubs Resort to Emergency Measures in Order to Obtain Water. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. HE cooler weather of today and the same brand pre- dicted by the Weather Bu- reau may be welcome news to the dwellers in the city who do not play golf, but it is noth- ing more or Tess than a pain in the neck to those who have to do with golf courses, unless it is ac- companied by rain. Extraordinary measures have been rushed during the past few days by those having to do with the upkeep of local golf courses, not to relieve the burned out condition of the fairways on the layouts about Washington, but to save the putting greens from com- plete destruction caused by lack of water. Out in nearby Maryland, where a ban of use of water for sprinkling lawns and gardens has been in- forced for nearly & week, the water also has cut off | from the courses and greenkeepers have been rushing around finding auxiliary sources of supply, installing pumps and devising ways and means of furnish- ing water for the greens. They cannot help the fairways. Nothing short of a steady rain for 24 hours or more would help them, but they can save the greens and with the water supply furnished by the Wash- ington Suburban Sanitary Commission cut off, the .greenkeepers have been busy finding and connecting up with the water on, the golf courses them- selves. Using Old Wells. Chevy Chase was notified last Pri- day that they were not to use water from the sanitary commission pipes for use on the putting greens at the club. So Dick Watson, the energetic green- keeper, turned to and found three or four wells that have not been in use, hitched pumps to them, and now is able to water his putting surfaces. And yesterday Dick completed arrangements for pumping gvater from two wells at Indian Spring, where the water famine is just as stringent as anywhere else. At Columbia O. P. Fitts has rigged up pumps to furnish water from a brook which runs through the club property and also has put into use wells Jocated on the club land. Congressional is fortunate in having so large a body of water near the golf course as the lake below the tenth tee, which is spring fed, and fed by a small stream, and which will furnish enough water to keep the putting greens in shape for a Summer of such weather as we have had lately. Burning Tree has had its own water- ing system for years and has not been in the same difficulties that some of the other courses have experienced. When it is considered that putting greens cost anywhere between $500 an $1,000 each to grade, trap and build, the investment in putting surfaces alone at the courses in nearby Maryland is considerable. A few days without water would ruin them completely, and beyond repair for this year at any rate, which | is the little matter causing greenkeepers the sleepless nights they have been having lately. And causing their worried looks each afternoon as the sky clouds over and nothing happens. If we do not have rain soon, even the wells now in emergency use may run dry and then where will the putting greens be. Yesterday, while the professionals were completing their qum?yinl rounds for the P. G. A. tourney at Indian Spring, the sky became overcast in the West, clouds formed a blanket over the sky, & high wind blew up, and every- thing looked like that cloudburst every one has been hoping for. And nothing happened,” A few drops of rain fell, not even enqugh to lay the dust. If rain does not fall pretty séon, there Just won't any golf cour: bl "F Y g ses left about MOTT RE_T_QRS, Inc.
