HREE Washington clubs will swing into action against Bal- | timore opponents in Maryland State Golf Association team matches Sunday. With Kenwood's championship sg- gregation on the sidelines following their defeat last Sunday, the struggle for the Old Line State team title is wide open.

Fred's Store took Schroff Bros. for a 2-to-1 decision when they won a roll-off by three pins in the first game. ‘Wolfe’s high set fell two pins short of the season's record made by Pink- ard, who also holds the year’s high game of 159. Prophets, Sextons and Trustees are in a three-way tie for first place in the Clyde Kelly League with 666 per- centages in six games. The Trustees hold the best team mark of a 541 game and 1,504 set, while individual records are divided among three. Kitchen's 121 average is the high medium, H. Davis’' 144 the high game and D.

T'S THE finest golf champion- ship in the world and one of the finest competitions in sport. If you want to see golf as it should be played go have a look at the P. G. A. championship.” Pred McLeod, who won't be a com= petitor in the national Professional Golers’ Association tourney this year, ‘was talking of the coming tournament at Pinehurst next month, where a flock of our better professional golfers will gather on November 16 to scrap for the crown now adorning the bushy thatch of John Revolta. Pressure is on Tight. "THESE boys put the pressure on from the very first hole and they nevér relax. You'll see the finest golf in the world in the P. G. A. champion= ship,” Pred said. The Columbia pro should know. He has played in many P. G. A. tournaments and back about 15 years ago Freddie was runner-up to Jim Barnes for the crown. “But the game has speeded up since those days,” he added. “There are more fine players in the field and on the whole they score better. I won't say they play better shots but their scor= ing is better on the average. “Why the amateur championship, good as it is, doesn't have the golf in it that the P. G. A. has nor the num« ber of fine players. Every man who qualifies for the P, G. A. has to be good. Professional golf is ahead of amateur golf, and you will find a good example of it in the P. G. A, championship.” Play on Great Course. cLEOD pointed out that the tour- nament this year will be played | over one of the great courses of the | world, the Donald Ross-built No. 2 | course at Pinehurst. “Some of the | boys have complained that it is too long, and it may be,” said Freddie. “But they all have to play the same course, they all will be pros and the conditions will be the same for all of them. And how different it will be from the days when I used to play | in 'em. We didn't have steel shafts, | or a flock of clubs. We usually had about 10 clubs in the bag, and we had to play shots, not clubs. We had such gents as Hagen, Sarazen, Jim Barnes, Jack Hutchins, Mac Smith, Leo Diegel and a few others who have made their mark in golf. I won't say they were better than the boys of to- day, but certainly they were as good. Too bad Mac Smith won't play. He'd give some of 'em a fit with his straighte ness and his consistency. But he doesn't play i the P. G. A. more.” [ YOUR LICENSE CARD Goodrich Sefery Silvertown It costs no more o equip with Life Saver Golden Ply Slivertowns that have been proved three times safer from high-speed blowouts, 1937 PHILCO HOME RADIOS ONLY PHILCO HAS IT! *54.95 Goodrich Batteries as’tow 50c A WEEK TUNE BY NAME WITH ALL WAVE AERIAL USE OUR EASIEST CREDIT PLAN SIMPLE ASA B C Open Evenings and Sunday A.M. 1738 Fourteenth St., Corner S St. N.W. 611 Pa.
