samuel DalxeII. crack left-handed
golfer of the Chevy Chase Club, has
returned to Washington from Cali
fornia, where he spent the winter
and made q remarkably fine golf
record. DalZell said the Bermuda
grass fairways of the Pacific coast
are the finest examples of turf de-
velopment he has ever seen. The
course will be the same next week as
1t is tomorrow" Dalzell said. Rain
does not change the course, for the
ball gets no roll anyway, and when
a shot is~hit right it will go in the
right way

starts.
Fred Mcleod of Columbia. who per-
formed the sensational by leading
the field at Worcester for the first
day, only to finish second before the
fine spurt of Johnny Farrell, will
leave tomorrow morning, arriving in
Detroit Tuesday. This will give him
practically two full days in which tc

the Oakland Hills Club, where the
titular tilt will be held.
The chances of the Washington
contingent should be as bright as
those of any other pair Of entrants
in the tournament. With Mcleod a,
the peak of a streak of brilliant put
ting and recovery work, the little
Columbia pro should do we'll.
Against him, however, stand those
eight, holes at Oakland Hills of more
than 400 yards. where Mcleod. not
one of the qongest hitters, needs two
of his best, where the great hitters
may use mashie or iron, to get
home.
Diegel went up to Worcester salts

His work on the first day did not
satisfy him, however, and he went
after everything the second day. The
resulting .71s indicates the strength
