Chevy Chase and Columbia tourn
With 70 Dunphy tied with
George P. James for low medal on
the first days qualifying round of
the Columbia Country Clubs an
nual spring invitation tournament
now in progress. 1t may be that
he will meet his Waterloo in the
championship rounds. Golf is a
most uncertain game. But If Dun
ply continues to shoot his game
through the championship rounds
that he is now playing we fail to
see anything in sight that is going
to stop him for high honors.
= Today 100 more entrants are
scheduled to tee off in the second
days qualifying round of the Col
umbia event. A host of excellent
golfers are i'm the list, among
whom is Tom Sasscer, of Balti-
more, the Middle Atlantic cham
pion. Sasscer may break ~, then
again he may not. It's a good
bet either way.
Other acknowledged stars who will
take shot today at Dunphy's and
James low medal of 70 include AL
George Weight, Donald Woodward,
Royal Gill, Arthur Guy, Walter
McCallum, H. L. Black and a host
OF others. 1t may be that one in
this list will come home with
medal lower than 70. If they do
they will have been shooting high
class game, for it takes an excel
lent brand of golf to register better
than so over Columbia's course.
The executive committee OF the
Middle Atlantic Golf Association
has announced the program for
its annual championship tourna-
ment to be held over the course

Here's story Of golfer who is
all dressed up with no place to go.
Charlie Shaeffer wins the Mclean
cup-at least that is what he
thought. Shaeffer entertained the
Idea that he would be given the Gus.
tody of the much coveted prize, but
someone slips him the bad news that
his name will be engraved thereupon
and that the cup will repose in the
club rooms of the National Press
Club.
~, ~. HHb DIS lar as IL goes.
we wish we could grab off some
gOsfing honor, have our name en-.
graVed upon a cup, the same as
Shaeffer will have his spread all
over the Mclean trophy. But we
wouldn't want that cup placed i'm
the National Press Club. And
neither does the HeraId's champion.
Shaeffer does not belong to the
Press club and is trying TO figure
out how he can display his prize
TO admiring friends.
Shaeffer says that he hasn't a
thing in the world to show for win
ming the cup but~a pair of sore dogs.
And who wants to be pulling off
their brogans to exhibit a pair of
blistered tootsies to some doubling
Thomas. Then again Shaeffer saws
be expects to get rid of those aching
boots in less than a year. AS far
as Shaeffer and that cup are con-
cerned 1t begins to look as though
It is a case of ION again, off again,
gone again, Finnegan."
