HE Columbia Country Club‘ has begun sending out in-| vitations to its eighteenth annual golf tournament for the Wardman Trophy. The tour- ney, which is the next of the big invitation affairs to be held im- mediately about Washington, will be played June 9, 10, 11 and 12, and probably will attract some- thing like 300 contestants. The announcements of the tourna- ment state that entries will close at 6 o'clock Tuesday, June 2, which is just one week before the start of the| qualifying round and is an unusual proceedure in local tournaments, for entries for most of the golf affairs close two or three days before the opening of the tourney. All entries must be accompanied by the contestant’s official club handicap, and Columbia has an- nounced a return to that pleasant end- ing of & golf tournament—the last day | handicap event. For many years at | some point during the tourney, the local clubs held handicap affairs in connec- | tlon with their invitation events. Dur- | ing late years, probably because of the | unwieldy size of the entry lists, these handicap events have been abandoned. Now comes Columbia with its invitation tourney, one of the most popular events held anywhere along the Atlantic sea- board, announcing a handicap event on the last day of the tourney. RIVILEGES of the course will be extended to all contestants in the tourney on Monday, June 8, and members of the club have been asked by the Tournament Committee to re- frain from playing on that day in order to permit invited entrants a_better op- portunity to play the course. Five flights | of 16 will qualify in the two days given over to medal play, which are June 9 and 10, with June 11 and 12 to be de- voted to the match play rounds. To the winner of the tourney -will go & replica of the historic Wardman Trophy, presented to the club back in 1913 by Harry Wardman. The Wardman trophy ranks second only to the Taft and Sherman Trophies at Chevy Chase in point of age among invitation tourney trophies. g Following the usual custom in invita- tion tournaments about the Capital, the | ‘Tournament Committee announces that any contestant who qualifies, permits his name to be paired and subsequently defaults, shall b> barred from partici- pation in future events of the Columbia Country Club, unless the reasons for | club.
