e TEAMTILTS TODAY MAY DECIDE TITLE 100 High Handicap Players Will Compete Next Week for Harris Trophy. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. OMAN golfers of the Capital are drawing near the end of their exten- sive early competitive schedule. But before the open season for tournaments draws to an end until early in August, when an open day will be staged at Washington, two important matters are to be settled among the fair club-swingers about the Capital. First and most important of these is the team champion- | ship of Washington, in which two teams are virtually deadlocked as the last of two matches scheduled this year is being played today at the Woodmont Country Club. Columbia Country Club's crack wom- en’s team, which includes Mrs. J. Mar- vin Haynes, District and Middle At- lantic titleholder, led an amazingly strong aggregation from the Kenwood Golf and Country Club by the slim margin of !, point as first teams from | 10 clubs met today in the last of two matches scheduled. The team matches will wind up for first teams on July 17 at Columbia. 100 Expected to Play. UT the outstanding event of the year for the women with high handicaps is scheduled next Mon- day, when some 100 or more feminine devotees of the art of extracting divots from well-groomed fairways will com- pete for the handsome trophy put up by Miss Elizabeth C. Harris, president of the Women's District Golf Asso- ciation. With that altruistic attitude characteristic of all presidents of the women’s golf associations, Miss Harris has put in competition & cup that bids fair to rival the Keefer Trophy and the Corby Trophy in popularity. Both these cups were placed in competi- tion by former presidents. But Miss Harris’ cup has a more potent appeal than either, for where the Corby and Keefer Trophies usually fall to the better players, no golfer with a handi- cap of less than 16 can wia the Harris Cup. Miss Harris declines to call her event the “duffers’” tourney, but at the same time she limits competitors in the coming event to those with handi- caps from 16 to 36 inclusive. Prizes Plentiful. O the tourney next Monday at Indian Spring will be truly a holi- day for the duffers, who can go out and scatter their shots in any and all directions without fearing the more accurate wallops of the Haynes, the Popes, the Dettweilers and the other better players who usually figure high up in the scratch events. Plenty of | prizes, in addition to the major cup, | will be made available for the high handicap women. Among those who have donated prizes are Mrs. Douglas ‘Tschiffely of Washington and Mrs. J. | F. Gross of Indian Spring. | Players with handicaps below 16 are | welcome to play for special prizes, but | they will not be eligible for the Harris Trophy. The course will be open for practice tomorrow up to 1 p.m. and entries are being recelved either by ;‘lm Harris, Mrs. Gross or Mrs, Tschif- fely. Dr. S. B. Muncaster, one of the golf- ing veterans of the Washington Golf and Country Club, today is proudly displaying to his friends a handsome cup won by the estimable physician at the American Medical Association con- vention .at Milwaukee a few days ago. Dr. Muncaster took a handicap of 28 | strokes in the blind bogey event and hit the lucky number right on the head. <+ THEY DON'T SPEAK HOW'S YouR ™ FLOWER GARDEN COMING ALONG.

To Western ears it was a discordant tune, for Coach Ed Leader's sons of Eli dashed off a mere time trial late yesterday in 6 minutes 20 seconds. This was 8.2 seconds faster than the 2,000- meter Olympic course record set dur- | ing the international games here last Summer by Italy. The huskies swept through a trial dash of their own down the placid lagoon in 6 minutes 24 seconds. ash- ington's trial time was 6 seconds faster than their mark of 6 minutes 30 sec- onds which won the first running of the Pacific Coast title event here last April 15. Californfa, with a revamped crew, in- cluding only one member of the eight which won the Olympic title a year ago here, was clocked in 6 minutes 33| seconds. Harvard, also with a revised boating, ran the length of the course in 6 min- STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE BY WALTER R. McCALLUM, LABORATE preparations are being| made by members of the Indian Spring Golf Club for a rousing en- tertainment to an all-Baltimore team on Sunday and a warm reception for the Maryland players on the golf course. ‘The much-discussed match in which the cocky Indian Spring team will meet a team gathered from the best of the club-swingers around Baltimore will come off at 1 o'clock and it would not be at all surprising if the home club boys took the Orioles over the jumps. . Indian Spring, champion of the Maryland State Golf Association team play for the past three years, has gath- ered a worthy Jot for the contest, rang- ing from Roger Peacock, the District title holder, down to some self-effacing gents who play from a 10 handicap but are in reality about four-handicap men. Here is the list of candidates from the Indian Spring club, 26 of 'em: Tom M. Belshe, Alex Baumgartner, Robert W. Bowen, James V. Brownell, Don_Buckingham, Louis Fuchs, George C. Gist, Harold N. Graves, jr.; W. H. Dickhaut, J. William Harvey, jr.; Jack Lynch, Frank G. Butler, John Jankow- ski, Cralg McKee, M. Parker Nolan, Dr. L. 8. Otell, Leo F. Pass, N. T. Pat- terson, Roger Peacock, Jack Pence, Homer S. Pope, Leroy Sasscer, H. L. | Smith, Arthur Urban, E. B. Wagner and Richard T. Kreuzberg. Baltimore will bring over a flock of | players and all of them will be accom- modated with matches. EORGE DIFFENBAUGH, Indian Spring pro, smilingly displays a gadget for counting golf scores these days. “It's one of the' prizes I am giving to the women in the high handicap tournament here next Mon- day,” he says. “I hope no one will think I have any wrong ideas about scoring. See, it goes on just like a wrist watch and every time a stroke is made, the player turns this little screw.” E. M. Talcott of the Chevy Chase | Steward at Congressional, Club, had to go afleld to score an ace. Playing with H. King Cornwell and william E. Richardson, Talcott holed his tee shot on the 160-yard fourth hole at Cojumbia, playing the shot from the upper tee. The mixed Scotch foursome, originally scheduled for June 25 at Columbia, will be played next Sunday. I {ARRY PITT and Maury Nee, who met George Diffenbaugh and Roger Peacock at Indian Spring today, have mapped out an impressive series of matches for themselves, prior to the amateur championship sectional qualification rounds. They are to play Al Treder, Manor Club pro, and Mel Shorey, East Potomac Park mentor, on Sunday and on Tues- day they will match shots with two of the Cunningham brothers, Walter and Prank, of Burning Tree. On Wednesday they will clash with Fred McLeod, Co- | 2§ lumbia pro, and Billy Malloy, one of his assistants. ‘The high spot of their series of links jousts will ccme on Sunday, July 16, when they will travel to Richmond to engage Bobby Cruickshank, pro at the Country Club of Virginia, and Billy Howell, Richmond amateur flash. Later in the month they are scheduled to meet Sandy Armour and Luther and Al Hcughton and Maury Fitzgerald at Kenwood. A mixed Scotch foursome in which senior golfers of the Chevy Chase Club will pair with women players from that club, is in the making at Chevy Chase. A date for the contest has not yet been ;fl' but it will be played in the near uture. SEEKS SUNDAY CONTEST. A game for Sunday is sought by the | Occoquan A.

The Chicagoan downed Frances Walker, 6—2, 7—5, and Miss Kirson conquered Mrs. Ruth Martinez, 6—1, 7—5. Both D. C. players battled courageously. Miss Walker rallying in the second set, carried the champion to 12 games before succumbing. Mrs. Martinez came back strongly in the second set, seriously threatening to take the set.

Vines, who was brilliant yesterday in defeating Cochet, 6—2, 8—6, 3—6, 6—1, will meet 2 scintillating star in the final Saturday in Jack Crawford of Australia, who was highly impressive in disposing of Jiroh Satoh of Japan, 6—3, 6—4, 2—6, 6—4. Cochet appeared dangerous only twice —in the second set, which Vines ral- lled to win, and in the third, which Cochet took when Vines sev!laped a wild streek. The rest of the time Cochet was outhit, outpaced and out- maneuvered. Crawford always was in command, deliberately loafing through the third set after Sctoh had jumped away to an early lead. f Two Helens Favored.

As the victory inspired the Amer- icans with visions of winning back the cup from Prance so did Cochet’s defeat plunge French fans in gloom.
