She won the Manchester invitation | scribes as probably the greatest round | of golf ever played by a woman in this country. % Patty an Uncrowned Queen. "O B.” doesn't go quite so far as ®to say that Joyce Wethered hasn't played better. “But Patty did some unbelievable golf up there,” he says. “I doubt if any amateur woman golfer in America ever played as well.’ The Berg girl is only 18, but at that tender age she is the uncrowned cham- pion of the fair club-swingers of the | land, another Bobby Jones of her time. She didn’t play well in the exhibition match at Congressional a few weeks ago, but you didn't hear her talk about it. She simply remarked the course was too long for her and let it go at that. But she played enough golf shots to show that she has plenty of golf in her, and no woman in this or any other land can hit tee shots like Babe Didrikson. | and Dana Belser, who watched Bobby Jones develop into & national star down in Atlanta, are the RAIG MCcKEE, long-hitting < former Iowa State champion, | challengers for the two-man team championship of Columbia Country Club. They won teh right to play the holders of one of Columbia’s prize golf trophies yesterday, scoring a 68 in the qualifying round, and will clash with Albert R. MacKenzie and Luther C. Steward some time before Christ- mas. “That is we think it will be played before Christmas,” said Red Banagan. “It may be played within a fortnight.” Miller B. Stevinson and Donald ‘Woodward, the men who lost the cup last Spring after five years as cham- pions, scored 71 to tie for second place in the qualifying round with Ed Merkle and Buddy Bowie. Charles Shelton and George Miller had 72. There will be a new Maryland State team champion this year. Kenwood Golf and Country Club's team, sur- prise victors last year, was whipped in the opening round of the State tourney yesterday by Baltimore Coun- try Club over the Five Farms course, losing & 12 to 6 decision. Three other local teams won their | matches and advanced to the second | round. Manor routed Elkridge at Elk- ridge by 12 to 6, with Bobby Brownell, District junior champion, shooting a subpar 69; Chevy Chase beat Argyle at Chevy Chase by 12 to 6 and Indian Spring whipped Woodholme 17 to 1.

The Berg | girl seems to have the edge on the younger competitors in the champion- ship and she won't come far from win- ning it.

TALENTIS SCARCE INWOMEN'S GOLF Favorites Are Dime a Dozen as 180 Tee Off in U. S. Title Tourney. By the Associated Press. UMMIT, N. J., September 28— Favorites were a dime a dozen as the fortieth United States women’s amateur golf cham- pionship got under way today. Never in the tournament’s history has outstanding talent been so scarce. Some 180 players teed off in the 18- hole qualifying round for 64 berths for the six rounds of match play to follow. Without such stars as six-time champion Glenna Collett Vare of Phil- adelphia and Virginia Van Wie of Chicago, the championship is lacking customary color. It appeared such promising young- sters as Patty Berg of Minneapolis, Dorothy Traung of San Francisco, Marion Miley of Lexington, Ky.; Charlotte Glutting of South Orange. N. J, and veterans like Mrs. Maureen Orcutt ‘Crews of Englewood, N. J., and Mrs. Opal Hill of Kansas City, as well as 19-year-old Pam Barton of Lon- don, British champion, have the best chance of taking advantage of the sit- uation. Course Record Appears Safe. | THE topography of the hilly par 77, 6,267-yard Canoe Brook Country Club course and the fact that it has been rain soaked made 95 likely to earn | a place in the match-play competition | The consesus was that the competi- tive courge record of 80, made by Miss Glutting, will not be touched. The only former champion in the field was Mrs. Helen B. Stetson of Philadelphia, who won in 1926. Mrs. Wright D. Goss, jr. of Springfield, N. J., runner-up that year, also was entered. Many expert observers looked for an international final, with Miss Barton one of the contestants. Either Miss Berg, runner-up to Mrs. Vare last year, or Miss Miley generally is ex- pected to be the red-haired Briton's DISTRICT ANGLERS TRAIL IN TOURNEY Finish Second to Columbus.
