Congressional Course Giving Collegians Bad Licking in Title Tournament MALLOYS, NOKIN, ALONE MATCH PAR 72 Cards of Princeton and Michigan Stars Likely to Be Low Medal. BY W. R. McCALLUM. EET the winnah and new champeen of the national in- tercollegiate golf tournament, which entered its second and final meda! play phase at the Con- gressional Country Club course today. It isn't either of the two stocky lads with the Irish monicker of Malloy, hor lanky Freddy Haas nor yet John- son, Laxton or Kocsis. It's the lengthy and rugged Con- gressional course, a layout where even the stoutest of hearts among 130 of our best collegiate club swingers were unable to knock par for a goal yester- day and probably won't be able to do any better today. Two months ago the boys in charge of the Congressional course went into & huddle ard decided that if the rah- rah boys were not to convert their favorite golf links into a race track and flaunt a flock of 69s in the faces of the members they had better do something about it. Par Tough to Lick. THEY did, in the shape of heavy rough and tees so far back you need a spy-glass to find the line to the hole. It worked, and today, after the opening session's hectic firing, it be-| gins to look as if no one is going to| bust that par of 72. It might be done, but on the fafe of the first day's scores it isn’t likely. Two stocky boys by the name of Malloy flung a couple of par-matching 725 up on the scoreboard yesterday. It may have been the good old Irish gpirit. They are not related and hail | from Princeton and Michigan. There's another Malloy—out of Notre Dame— in the tournament, but he couldn't get his Irish up like his pals of the same name. He finished with an 87. Jack of Princeton and it was Jack who turned in the first 72 yesterday. Along came Wood- row, 22 years old, named after the war-time President, to tle Jack. Long and vainly is his brother, who also evaded the rain and wind of early afternoon, the | |SPORTR, » ' other lads, through high wind and| heavy rain, strove to match the brace | of 72s, but they couldn't do it. John F'scher of Michigan, champion, couldn't make it. He fin- ished with Charlie Yates, the lanky Georgia Tech boy, who holds| the title, couldn’t make it. He hit a| 8. Neither could, such brilliant shot- makers as Charlie Kocsis of Michigan, | John Banks of Notre Dame, Wilson Marks of Princeton, Joe Lynch of Georgetown or Bobby Riegel, the new Southern champion, from Richmond. Bobby needed a golf miracle today even to qualify, for he just about blew himself right out of the tourna- ment with a first-round 84. He is in 1. 8 spot where he needs 74 or better | to qualify. Closest to the twin-scoring, Malloys was tall Freddie Haas of Louisiana State, who wound up with a 73. Fred- die looked like the hot-shot to grab the top spot, but he went over par on the tenth, eleventh and twelfth in a row. Finishes With Eagle. ONE of the Malloy boys pulled a hat trick on the eighteenth to tie for the lead. It was Jack from Princeton, who parked his tee shot 15 feet from the pin on this 300-yarder and rapped in the putt for the only eagle of the day. Both of the Malloys finished be- fore the big wind, which caught many of the lads far out on the course and ran scores up before they knew what was happening. John Fischer, hitting the ball quick and early, found so much rough he thought he was going a-haying. But his putter was working. If it hadn't been he might have run up above 80. Joe Lynch played a steady and good round to card his 75, a round which put the Georgetown boy in a spot where he can hardly miss qualifying. But a few of the big shots are out on the well-known limd today and may miss the match-play rounds, which start tomorrow. Among them are Crawford Rainwater of Georgia ‘Tech, with 82; Tommy Dwyer of Stan- ford, at 84; Don Edwards of Stanford, at 86; Bobby Anderson of Louisiana State, at 83, and Spec Stewart of Stanford, at 80. The boys have revised their opinion of that Congressional course. So many of them were bouncing the ball around in 72 and better in the prac- | tice rounds thet they thought it was a pushover. But today they think that 145 will grab the medal and that scores of 160 may qualify. With good Wweather today. 158 probably would be the best, Meanwhile Michigan State has a stranglehold on the team champion- ehip. It wound up the first round with 302, 11 strokes in front of Georgia Tech, 12 ahead of Oklahoma and 13 in front of Georgetown. The Wol- verines are sounding the victory howl today, They can hardly lose. Yates Gets a 78, *'OURNAMENT notes . . .

George ‘Washington has the greatest number of players enrolled with five; George- towh is next with three and one or more come from Duke, North Caro- lina U, Virginia, Yale, Navy, Prince- ton, Notre Dame, Stanford and Cali- fornia. Duke and Georgetown hoast the stand-out players—Barney Welsh and Dooly Mitchell. Two younger players from North Carolina are Ricky Willls, who captained the Tarheels last year, and Prank Shore, who is captain-elect.
