champion, are scheduled to start this
afternoon.
Chilly Blasts Ruin Games.
Chilly blasts from the general di
rection of the North Pole set down a
number of ambitious golfers who
might otherwise have made good
scores in the first half of the uualf-
fylng round yesterday. BreeZing over
the flat expanse of the course and
gathering momentum as IL struck the
treeless stretches. a cold northeast
wind cut down distance and made all
the scores of yesterday jump up into
high figures.
OF the 40 men who started, only
one, schoolboy, was under 80, even
though many of the best golfers
about Washington took a fling at the
long Indian Spring layout. John G..
Shorey of Central High School, the
lS-year-old East Potomac Park title
holder, was the lone player to break
so. and he shattered the mark by only
a stroke, while two shots back of
him at 81 came Walter r. Tuckerman
OF Burning Tree and c. Ashmead
Fuller of Chevy Chase. The others
were strung out all along the line
up to 109. among those who turned in
cards. and more than 80 failed to re-
turn their scores.
Major II. Robb of Bannockburn per
petrated unique stunt. Playing the
thirteenth hole, Robb's ball lodged in a
tree. He hunted all over the ground
under the tree and finally found it
high in the branches. Three swings
with a nibick failed to dislodge it, but
he finally got it down and holed out
in s. Notwithstanding that he found
horseshoe under the tree. he didn't
do so well on the next few holes and
tore up his card.
Yesterdays scores follow, J. c. Shorey.
