Evening star., 1928-06-13

N YINEIX golfers, includfng the
I'M cream Of the local crop. and all
vi the men who have figured as
4 A. winners and runners-up in the
local tournaments this year are
playing today over the course OF the
Congressional Country Club in the
first half of the 36-hole qualifying
round Of the Middle Atlantic Golf ASso-
citation amateur championship.
4 George j. Voigt, formerly OF Wash
f4lgton, now a resident of New York,
has defaulted his title, for his name
docs not appear in the entry list. The
ENTRY is the smallest in the recent his
tory Of the Middle Atlantic Golf Asso-
cIation, but what it lacks in quantity 1t
makes up in quality, for not a single
name OF those who have figured
this Spring-with the exception of the
visiting Georgetown University delega-
tion--is missing from the entry list.
The entire field is scheduled TO play
IS holes today and the same distance
tomorrow, with the pairings and start
tpg times Of today holding good for to-
morrow. The new second tee at the
Congressional Country Club, which
lengthens the hole a few yards and
converts 1t into a real dog leg affair, is
in use today for the first time, forcing
sthe play far out to the right to avoid
the formidable bunkers and equally
formidable rough which confront the
player who elects to take the straight
line to the hole.
( Some of Favorites.
Among those listed as possible win
ners Of the event are Miller B. Stevin-
son Of Columbia. Page Hufty OF Con-
gressional, Harry G. Pitt Of Manor and
"A. L, Houghton Of Manor, who between
them have won four OF the invitation
events around Washington this year.
Only two ex"champions Of the Middle
atlantic Association are playing in the
tourney-Albert r. Mackenzie of Col
ur1bia. who won IN 1923 and Walter
r.. Tuckern1an Of Burning Tree, who
won more than a decade ago. The
out Of town delegation is noticeable by
ats absence. Only one entrant from out
nf Washington is paired In the quality
ing rcund-Alex NJ. Knapp, one Of the
aeading players of the Baltimore Coun-
Try Club. The others are all local en-
aEants, and all the local clubs which
are members Of the association are rep
resented. Although Washington usually
sends between IS and 20 players to
the tournament when 1t Is held In other
cities, only one entrant has come to
the Capital 70 play in the tourney.
The pairings follow:
