155 SEEN ASLIMT T0 MAKE TOURNEY Winning Figure for Event at Columbia Placed at 144 for 36 Holes. BY W. R. MC‘CALLUM. ITH the big golf test of the year, so far as the national amateur championship is concerned, just four days away, all the two-score entrants from Washington clubs in the sectional qualifying rounds at Columbia next Tuesday are wondering what it will take to get in the select group of those who will go to Garden City early next month to play for the national crown. Fred McLeod, Columbia pro, who knows the course forward and back- ward, stands pat on his earlier state- ment that 155 will get in if rain comes to slow up the course before the tourney starts Tuesday morning and it will take 153 to get in if the course stays fast as it is now. Score of 152 Should Be Safe. T'S a sure thing that the lad who shoots himself a brace of 76s will get into the championship, for the scoring pace isn't likely to be a great deal hotter next week than it was| three years ago, when scores of 155 tied for last place. In other words, 152 should be a safe working score, and the man who can’s shoot a couple of 76s at Columbia hasn't any busi- ness in the national where 76s are a dime a dozen and usually come up with & licking for their makers, in the match play rounds. Scoring around Washington has stepped up a little bit and there are more golfers getting down in the low 70s than there were three years ago, but still you could take a brace of 76s, stick a cigar in your mouth and watch the rest of the boys roll in, confident grade. Amateur golfers generally are not used to medal play. They can't save strokes like the pros. And you can look for some fellow to get hot | and win the qualifying medal with a card around 144 for the 36-hole dis- tance, if the fairways are hard. That winning figure might jump up to 146 if rain softens up the track before Tuesday morning. Stevinson in Clover. OR several of our better simon- pures it will be their first essay at | the national. strokers of the ball as Bobby Brownell cf Manor, the District junior champ; Billy Shea of Congressional, junior title-holder, and Billy Dett- weiler of Congressional, a qualifier in 1932 and 1934, should make the grade, | and you can look for Miller B. Stevin- son, Columbia’s grand veteran, to win one of the spots. “Steve” could roi around that course twice in 76 with- out thinking about it. He could play 1t almost with his eyes shut in 76 or better, so well does he putt. They aren’t going to make the course easy for the boys. keeper, will put the tees as far back as he can get ’em, away back on the back end, stretching the layout to its maximum length of around 6,500 yards. It sounds on the short side, but it isn’t, by any means. Columbia will rate as one of the tougher tests of the game next Tuesday., particu- larly if a little rain comes along. e BERRYVILLE RESULTS Heavy drafts—Best foal of 1936, Fir Bounce, Ray E.

Two thousand people braved a hot | sun and saw four accidents mar the |day. Mrs. George Greenhalgh of| | Berryville received a shake-up when | | her mount refused a jump in ihe Hunter Hack class. Robert Riticor of Oatlands was painfully hurt whea his | | mount went a cropper in the pair of | | hunters' event. He was taken to the| ‘Winchester Hospital where his condi- tion is not regarded as serious. The other two falls happened in the steeple- chase, but meither rider was seriously | hurt. Other Outsiders Compete. MRS WHITNEY did not furnish all the outside opposition yester- day. Turner Wiltshire of Middleburg | sent along Safingle, last year's winner of the Corinthian, who annexed the | lightweight hunter class. U.

She sent this son of Galations back later and won the three and four year old class. ) Bon Diable, Missing Caddy, Cherry ,Red First Night and Springhope won seconds and thirds here and there.

IVAN continued in the role of the local fair-haired lad last night, pinning Gino Garibaldi with a drop- kick and rolling body press after 28 minutes and 20 seconds before 1,500 satisfied spectators. Gino and Ivan resorted to straight | wrestling during the first few min- | |utes of the match and completely | bored the fans. Garibaldi grasped the situation and proceeded to un- veil his unorthodox tactics. After absorbing the usual quota of punishment, Managoff turned ap- parent defeat into victory when he jumped off the ropes feet first into Gino's face. He then flopped on Gari- baldi to win. Irish Jack Donovan tossed Little (Weasel) Beaver with an airplane head scissors in 12 minutes and Frank Judson and Henri Piers worked to a 30-minute draw in the best of the preliminary tussles.

Raymond Frye, metropolitan and Virginia State champ, lost his sixth game to Jarrell, 28-50, and then was beaten by Clayton Henson, his Virginia rival, in. his last game to place third behind Jarrell and Henson. Frye, odds-on favorite to dethrone Henson, lost & dozen ringers in his de- ciding match with Jarrell, averaging only 54 per cent. Ray, however, led the field in ringer percentage for his seven games with 59 per cent, with Jarrell in second place in this department with 57 and Henson and Henry tied for third wita 56.

Plain salt water will be used in tub and sponge baths for the gridders after their day’s work on the field. He said brine foot baths were tried out last year with “remarkable” re- sults. “We figure,” he said, “that if it is good for the feet it should be good for the whole body. Boxers use salt to toughen the hands and face. ‘Why shouldn't it be used effectively on foot ball players?”
