Have Bad Day. j
Yesterday saw the usual few frstA
16 golfers who had a bad day sndb
failed to get in their customary niche
Donald Woodward of Columbia had
a mediocre So and Reginald Loftus&
of Chevy Chase tore up his card after
running up a brace of 9s on tbeY
fifth and fifteenth holes. +. 3. Eng
lish of Columbia had the weirdest
score of the day, a 54 out and Sc
in, while Harry F. Krauss OF Ban-s
nockburn was out in SO and bAcki,
in 80. A strong wind from the wesI<
blew many balls out of bounds at ths
seventh hole, the player incurring the
penalty of stroke and distance.
With eight scores OF 81 or better
yesterday, it was expected score Of
81 would be needed today TO make
sure Of getting in the first flight. The
field which started today had moro i
golfers capable Of shooting below 80
than the group which started yester-
day. One of the sensations of yes
terday was the IS made by H l..
West, former Commissioner Of the
District. West, who has been play
ing golf for 80 years, never before Y
had scored as low as IS. He was
out in 43 and back in ~, notwith
standing q, on the seventeenth hole s
