LEADERS IN JUNIOR RANKS IN DISTRT Apparently Have All Assets to Become Ruling Fair Sex Players Here. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. UT of the whirl of tourna- O the comprehensive sched- ule for the women play- ers about Washington this year have come two youngsters who may go on to greater heights in the national field than any wom- an player about Washington has attained in a decade. A pair of youngsters from Manor and Kenwood have shown themselves this year to be the best of the junior crop among the | feminine stars about’ the Capital. They are Helen Dettweiler of the Menor Club, stocky youngster who hits | the ball as far s any woman player sbout the Capital, a sister of the 15- vear-old Billy Dettweiler, the Manor Club youngster who qualified for the nati amateur championship last year, and Virginia Pope, stalwart young George Washington student, who has won enough honors as a young player to justify the prediction that she may go on to greater heights. There is no lack about Washington of competition—the factor that con- tributes more than anything else to golf endeavor. Although the Misses Dettweiler and Pope have been pre- vented by their studies from compet- ing in many of the earlier tournaments throughout the Spring season, they have shown enough in the District women'’s championship which ended to- day at Kenwocd to justify the rosy pre- ditions regarding their futures. 'HE day may not be far distant when they will supplant the head- liners of today—Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes, Mrs. Dorothy White Nicolson and Mrs. Betty P. Meckley—as the leaders among the feminine stars cf Washington. Both these youngsters have that characteristic of most younger players—they take a big cut | at the ball and it goes a lcng way when they meet it right. | Both lack that delicate touch around | the greens that mark the more seasoned | K;‘flnrmer, but c1 the fast courses of | dsummer thc lass who can wallop a golf ball 2 lc ; way and then knock an iron shot o .0 the green does not need much of tae finer points which are necessary to score on the slower courses of Spring and Fall. Both these youngsters have the ear-marks of fu- ture greatness. Their golfing future depends on how much they work of their games, how much they ccmpete in the better golf tournaments, where they will meet good competition and how they can stand up under fire from more seasoned com- | petitors, 1t is always that way in golf. | Many ax&leungw can go-out and shoot a fine nd against mediocre opposi- tion, but wilts against the drum-fire put up by one whose game has been proven in gocd competition, Both these girls have the potential ability to go faf in their chosen game. Strong and sturdy. they may be the stars of a few years hence. They have both proven in the District tourney that they are the leaders among the | younger grcup. Golf Analyzed BY JOE GLASS. O play good golf you have to be baiarced throughout the stroke. A Diana Fishwick, British girl who has been a notable figure in woman's golf on both sides of the Atlantic, says that this is the most important consideration. What is balance throughout the stroke? Miss Fishwick says there is an easy way for you to find out if you have it. Do you have to move your body or adjust your feet to keep your balance when ycu swing? “If a star golfer would stop at any point of his swing,” she main- tairs, “he would not have to adjust his body or feet to remain balanced.” This is a fact, of course, Watch BODY AND FEET MUST NOT BE COMPELLED To ADUUST THEMSELVES | any crack professional playing and you will note that even when he is applying a great deal of power he seems to be deliberate.

But at the fifteenth Miss Shorey of Kenwood, one of the four who reached the penultimate round, was runner-up in 1927. Luther C. Steward, jr. home club ace, met Maurice Nee, meteoric Co- lumbia star in one semi-final, while| Roger Peacock of Indian Spring, Dis- trict amateur champion, faced Shorey, from the Kenwodd club, in the other semi-final. i These four reached the penultimate | stage by firing near-par golf at their | o] ents in yesterday's two blistering | rgl;'gcnls which found all the contestants playing through a heavy downpour of | rain before the matches were over. The feature of the first day's play was the meeting between Peacock and Harry G. Pitt, Manor Club star. This | pair had not met in match play for | several years. Last Fall at Chevy| Chase, Peacock took the District ama- | teur crown from Pitt. They met in the second round and for nine holes bat- tled on even terms. But over the sec- ond nine Peacock’s unerring accuracy told as Pitt, growing ever wilder from the tee, scattered shots all over the landscape to permit the black-haired champion to win holes with par. Al- though Roger three-putted the fifteenth | and sixteenth greens to permit Pitt to win both holes, it was too late, for Pea- cock holed a 30-footer to halve the seventeenth and win the match by 2| | and 1. | YOUNG Steward, a former Congres- cional Club title-holder, the only hope of the host club left in the first flight, moved smoothly through two | | rounds, winning from the veteran | roy Sasscer of Indian Spring by 4 and 2, and from J. W. Harvey, jr, of the same club, by 7 and 5. | |~ The most amazing scoring exhibition | of the day came from the clubs of | Shorey, who was 2 down to John M. Downey, East Potomac Park stylist, as they passed the ninth hole in the after- noon. Shorey then played the next | seven holes in two better than par w, win the match by 3 and 2. | Young Maury Nee probably put on | the smoothest scoring feat of the day. Maury was exactly par for the 33 holes | he played to beat Maury Fitzgerald |of Kenwood and Ted Burrows of Rock | Creek Park. Burrows earlier had snuf- fed out the aspirations of John Con- nolly of Rock Creek Park in the first round. Connolly then defaulted his con- solation match. The play-off of the tle | between Connolly and Steward for the qualifying medal is set for July 2. | HAT ever-recurring battie between courageous and inexperienced youth and the canniness of a veteran and experienced campaigner today found 18-year-old Helen Dett- | weiler of Manor opposing Mrs. J. Marvin Hayes of Columbia in the final | round for the District women's cham- plonship at Kenwood. | For Miss Dettweiler it is her first | big final round. For Mrs. Haynes | final rounds of tournaments are an old experience. She has been in dozens of them, but for Mrs. Hayes also came | wood, 5 and 3; third flight, Mrs. Frank | Pope made her stand. She won this hole with a par 4 and probably would have won the sixteenth had not Mrs. Haynes' overly strong approach shot struck a spectator and remained in the fairway, from which she knocked the ball onto the green and sank the putt for a half in 4. Miss Pope won the seventeenth with a par 3 and went to the eighteenth 1 down. Both reached the final greem.in three shots, but Miss Pop¥'s for a winning 4 barely missed the cup.
