Goldman’s 68 Best in Western Amateur : Girl Sw L4 ONLY ONE TOBEAT PAR N FRST TEST Broadmoor’s Tricky Greens Retard—End Qualifying Rounds Today. BY LOUDOUN KELLY, Associated Press Sports Writer, OLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, July 17 (#).— Hairtrigger greens of Broadmoor’s pano- ramic battlefleld had the shooters wary and somewhat fearful today as the second lap of the Western smateur qualifying round opened. 8o fast and decelving were the | putting surfaces yesterday that only ohe golfer in the 157 entered—Dave (8Spec) Goldman of Dallas, Tex.- put » dent in the layout’s par 70. Gold- man, runner-up last year in both the national and Western amateurs, fin- ished early with a 68 and then re- Jaxed on the club house veranda to see if any of the reff could cach up. None could. The next best score ‘was 70, even with the card, which was shared by four aspirants for Zell Eaton's title—Tom Dwyer, Stanford | University student; Jack Gaines, Los Aneges; Larry Trickett, young Kansas City star, and Bob Conliff, jr., Okla- homa City. Greens Worry Them. PORTS, ¢ Coming Back THE greens had most of the cam- ! paigners shaking heads in be- wilderment. Three-putt greens were @ common woe and four-putt greens ‘were far from rare. Chick Evans, Chicago, who figures he has played in 25 Western tourna- ments, eight of which he had won, checked in late in the day with a 76. If yesterday’s high scoring continues, the veteran should be able to qualify by duplicating his initial round. Four were bracketed at 71. were: Paul Leslie, Jefferson City, Mo.; Charlie Yates, husky Atlantan; Earle Berryhill, Sapulpa, Okla, and Walter Emery, Oklahoma City. Roaney Bliss, jr, Omaha; Hal 8.

Emery ;Toy) Malm, Deaver, came next with 2. ‘They 19-year-old from Johnny Goodman, Omaha, current trans-Mississippi titlist, whom many favor to cop this Western, was tied with five others at 73.

ARNEY WELSH thought too much of that Evening Star ‘Trophy he’s due to get as three-time champion of the local public parks to stay out of the tournament which begins Saturday on the Rock Creek courts. There had been some talk that perhaps, as the defending national champion, Barney might be exempt from playing in the regional trials, the winning of which qualifies one to play in the nationals. But Barney already has two legs on The Star's ©Cup which must be won three times and another silver trophy won't look out-of-place in the Welsh home. Right now he's in a favored spot to grab another State championship be- fore returning here this week end. Sam Cohn, the champion of West Vir. ginia tourney in which Welsh is play- ing at White Sulphur Springs, was eliminated yesterday, swept through an early round match with ease. He lost one game in two sets in knocking off Bill Lilly of Beckley, W. Va. Two of Washington’s fairer players kept Welsh company, when Sara Moore, oity champion, drew a bye and Bobsey Turney, half of Washington’s ‘women’s doubles championship team this year, trimmed an Alabama girl, ‘Wilyena Upshaw, 6—4, 6—3.

HE American Legion marches on tomorrow night with a welter- weight 10-round main event between Sid Silas, Police Boys Club instructor, and that rugged con- queror of Phil Furr, Tony Rock. Silas in his career has beaten such good men as Willard Brown, who de- feated Bob Wilson and made the Dis- trict’s blond menace hurry home from his Australian tour. Of course Silas is down now, but no longer is he . His environ- ment as instructor at No. 4 Police Boys Club has made him feel like a new man. He has caught the fever again and he will be in better physical condition than when he lost a decision to Phil Furr several months ago. Has Double Incentive. HE KNOWS that if he cen beat Rock, which he is confident of doing, he'll be in line with another shot at Furr. There's another reason why he wants to win. Those little fellows who stand around by the hour watch- ing him feel certain nobody can out- punch Silas. And he doesn’'t want to disappoint them.

For at Falrlawn, Miss O'Steen met Pat Deck. and to this ranking District player she modestly gives credit for all the tennis she now displays. Not only did Deck in- struct her, but he started her play- ing with and against boys, and any one will tell you that's the best practice in the world for a girl. After playing as a “dark horse” through the first three rounds, it finally was realized yesterday that the petite performer was no derk horse at all, but a darn good tennis player. But a fraction of an inch over 5 feet ir height, Willle is 17 years old and is a student at Wil- son Teachers’ College, having beén graduated frcm Eastern High. Her quarter-final victory yester- day, though apparently lopsided as the two scores of 6—1 would seem to indicate, came only after she outlasted a scrapping slip of & lass named Eileer Lennon. Eileen was the youngest player of the tournament, being but 13, but she deserves all the plaudits “The boat was too small for the party carried. “There was a clear violation of the marine regulations, since there were only three life preservers on board for 10 people. “The ‘skipper, while personally genial and accommodating, was either afraid of his own boat or in ‘cahoots’ with the captain in charge of the whart to cut the trip as short as pos- sible. “The ‘skipper’ was unfamiliar with the home port and found it with diffi- culty, in a then almost calm sea. “The captain in charge knew, or is certainly charged with potice, of these conditions. “That this captain is wholly intol- erant of any complaint from his cus- tomers, discourteous and imbued with the idea of getting the most possible for the least possible service.” The letter further states that these six men stand ready to verify all of the above in any particular, and can prove that there was no unseemly conduct nor fault-finding in the party. Under date of July 156 we also re- ceived a letter from A. H. Plerce, 1206 Garfleld street, Sliver Spring, Md, who said he thought it is time that anglers who frequent Chesapeake Bay should know how some of the anglers are treated by a certain boat captain at Plum Point. There certainly must be something wrong at this place. He said a party of eight chartered & boat by phone for last Saturday at 3:30 pm., and were assured three times during the conversation that a boat would be available. Upon arrival, he said, they found several hundred persons arguing and wrangling with this captain about boats which were not available. Fishing parties of four, five and seven who had arrived earlier than the appointed time were put on other boats with other parties, he szid, while his own party was left to the mercy of this captain. At 5:30, still on the pler arguing, this captain got mad, the writer said, because the anglers would not split the party and some go on other boats and scratched the party completely off his book. “I overheard conversations of several parties and one said he had made ar- Long Walk to Play Tennis Proves a Boon Miss Willie O'Steen Goes to Playground Semi-Finals for Center That Has No Court. being tossed her way by those who have seen her play the past few days. Slight in stature, Eileen pluckily fought her way to the quarter-finalc and it was only ex- perience and a stronger physique that licked her yesterday. ‘This afternoon Miss O'Steen was to face Charlotte Decker, who seems to have more power in her stroking than any girl in the com- petition.

A U. swimming pionship meet starts to- morrow, with the pick of America’s feminine aquatic stars seeking new records. The meet is expected to be featured by s duel for individual honors be- tween Katherine Rawls, 18-year-old star from Miami, and Lenore Kight, 21, free-style champion from Home- | only stead, Pa. Between them they are entered in eight events, but they will actually meet in only three contests—the 100 meters, 440 and 880 yard free-style | strok championships. Miss Kight is the defending title holder at the two long- er distances and she will seek to regain the sprint crown she lost last year to Olive McKean of Seattle. Other Champions Defend. O'!‘Hm defending champions include Dorothy Poynton Hill of Los An- geles, in the platform dive, and Anne QGovednik of Chisholm, Minn.,, in the breast stroke. On Friday there will be the 220- yard back stroke, 440-yard free-style and 220-yard breast stroke races, with Alice Bridges, Miss Kight and Miss QGovednik as the respective title de- fenders. It will be relay time on Saturday. Sunday will bring the listing of the 880-yard free-style, the high platform dive and the 300-meter medley relay. Eleanor Holm Jarrett, back stroke star, notified the A. A.

REDUCED TO BOUQUET SIZE The Same Cigar In Every Way The four men who will represent in the national public have been lined up at Indlan Spring and Kenwood. Members of the team are Claude Rippy, Bobby Burton, George Malloy and Ted Burrows, and the boys all are planning intensive practice sessions before the national joust. SINND-ROUND matches today found all the favorites remaining in the chase for the public links junior title at East Potomac Park, although one or two of the pre-tour- nament choices had & rough time scraping through the first round yes- terday. Ernie Garlem, who scored a 73 in the medal round, had to bag & bird 3 on the nineteenth to win an overtime duel in the first round yes- terday from Bobby Bowers, while Russell Sullivan, St. John's golf cap- tain, also went to the nineteenth to win from Roger Sheriff. Andy Oliveri, the medalist, won with comparative ease from Julian Murphy, snuffiing out the aspirations of the Murphy lad by 4 and 2. Columbia’s new seventeenth hole, which proved so easy for Fred Mc- Leod during the first few weeks the green was opened, has become a tougher par 3 for the little Scot. Fred says he has been having trouble get- ting down 6-footers which he used to Nfle with regularity. A par 3? Sure, it's that for Freddie. The North Berwick man is so accurate with his little machie-niblick that he seldom has more than an 8-footer for the 3 on that seventeenth hole. He scored something like 27 3s on the hole | during the first- three weeks it was open. WOULD TRAVEL SUNDAYS.
