B—6 SP EVENT T0 BE OPEN TONUNYGOLFERS “Uptown Charapionship,” to Be Played in Fiights, Idea of Manager Graham. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. ARDLY finished with a\ municipal women’s cham- | pionship which he staged| over the Rock Creek course | a fortnight or so back, Harry | Graham, manager of the uptown link in the chain of the Loeffler golf enterprises, has another z'mdi bigger idea. That's the way Harry is—always getting a new| and bigger scheme to prcmotc: golf and tournaments. The latest scheme which has come into Harry's fertile mind is a men's| tournament. open to all municipal golf- ers, to be played in flights during late | July and August. Just what he will| call this tourney he has not yet de-| cided, but he is toying h a plan to call it the “uptown championship.” to | distinguish it from any subsequent tour- | nament which the equally fertile mind | of Al Farr may originate down at East| Potomac Park. If Al does put on a tournament he will then be able to call | it the “downtown championship.” | Harry's idea is to charge a small en- try fee, probably 50 cents or so, to make | the tournament a self-supporting af- | fair, out of which he hopes will come a | veal champion of Rock Creek Park. Among the prospective title holders he sees such fire golfers as Ted BUrrows, | the irrepresible Nick Altrock, if Nick | can find time to play, and Volney G. | Burnett, the latter the same young man Who has been burning up golf courses | hereabouts and used to be a member of Beaver Dam. o | &+ THINK we can have such a tour- | nament and get up a good deal of interest among the boys,” Graham | says. tried to organize a senior golf tourney, but I guess some of the older men were shy about revealing their ages, for they didn't go for it as I ex-| pected. But I think an all-inclusive | event would get 'em all. We have quite a bunch of regulars here—fellows who play every day. And they would like, | 1 am sure, to get at each other’s throats in listed competition.” This Burnett lad hasn't gotten much Ppublicity on his recent stunts, but dur- ing the past couple of weeks he has| tied two course records and been within an inch or two of toppling both of | them.

Leech Cup since 1925, to-| morrow will take the courts at the Army-Navy Club with the brightest prospects it has entertained in several years. With Flying Cadet Dolf Muehleisen, Lieut. Stanley K. Robinson and Maj. | Robert C. van Vliet as the mainsprings of the team, the Army is conceded a good chance of ending Navy’s six con- | secutive victories. Back in 1924 when play for the coveted Leech Cup was inaugurated, the Army smothered the Navy by 7 t2 0. The following year, 1925, it was a clos squeak, the Navy going down, 3 to 4. after a bitter tussle.

Big Tournament for Public Links Players Is Planned.at Rock Creek Course ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER OR the second consecutive week the Potomac River is clear. It is in wonderful shape around Washington, and some small- mouth bass are being caught in the vicinity of Chain Bridge along with cat- fish. It is clear at Great Falls and all the way to Harpers Ferry, but the Shen- andoah River is very muddy. This river, however, clears very quickly, and this | condition is not likely to last long. The hot-weather has caused a falling off in the biting of big-mouth bass in the Lower Potomac in the creeks and coves on the Virginia side. Bass fishing on the Maryland side of the Lower Poto- mac does not start until August 1, but reports state that a good many rockfish are being caught in the mouth of Pis- cataway Creek at Fort Washington Local anglers have been picking up some sizable bass in the Potomac around Seneca and other points, but the best fishing at present is in salt water, and how! H. G. MEARS, at Wachapreague, Va., wires, “Last 10 days catching 1 to 2 bushels per boat, flounders, large sea bass, etc. Channel bass active One boat one day landed two, broke line on three others. Total to date 63, largest 57 pounds.” A report from Ocean City states that hock-and-line fishermen are pulling in big trout. “One boat came in Wednes- day with 900 pounds, another had over Golf Analyzed BY JOE GLASS o F you are slicing you may find a cure by observing the position of your hands and your feet as you are hitting through the ball.

OBERT STEAD, Jr.. chairman of the Golf Committee at Chevy | Chase. warns the prospective en- | trants in the forthcoming sectional trials for the amateur championship to | be played at Chevy Chase on August 16 that positively no post entries will be | accepted. “The club has nothing to do with the tournament,” Stead says, “although it| was happy to offer its course and happy that Chevy Chase was chosen as the mer by members of the Boys' Club of | course for the sectional trials. How- ever, the actual handling of entries is | being done by the United States Golf Association at 110 East Forty-second street, New York, and the club can do nothing about post entries.” | Local amateurs who are members of member clubs of the U. S. G. A., and have a handicap of 4 or less, should send in their entries, accompanied by the $5 fee. before 6 p.m, July 26. LOOK at the star amateur golfers of the Nation is going to be cheaper this year than it has been for many years since the U. S. G. A. put a price on the admission gate at the big cham- pionships. Season tickets were received in Washington today for the national amateur championship to be played next September at Baltimore. The price tags were labeled “$6.60" instead of $10 as they have been for other cham- pionships, and in addition a bargain attraction is listed. all included in this season ticket which admits the bearer to_the championship for a solid week. | The bargain attraction is an exhibi- | tion match in which the one-time | emperor of the game—Robert T. Jones —will play. This match will be held either on the Saturday or Sunday prior to the opening of the championship | itself on Monday, September 12. Tickets will be sold at the Washington golf clubs covering a week’s admission to the Five Farms course for $6.60. A peek at championships two or three vears ago cost plenty of money. ‘The U. §. G.
