EXPECT HUGE
FIELD FOR
EVENT
Bv GEORGE A. SIMPSON

By GEORGE A. SIMPSON
The woods nine o. the Manor
Club course will not be used for
the 36-hole medal play handicap
Star Cup for women golfers Mon
day and Tuesday. This announce
ment was made today by Mrs.
Frank R. Keefer, president OF the
Women's District Golf Association.
Instead, play will be held over
the inside nine as we'll as the
first nine, which was formerly
the last nine.
The Star Cup tournament is
expected to attract the leading
club and unattached feminine
golfers of the District. 1t is likely
a field in excess of seventy-five
entries will tee off and this
number would be a record for
women golf competition here.
Entry Lists Doubled
The growth of golf among
women and girls here has been
rapid with the entry lists in the
regular tournaments almost twice
as great as last year.
Golf is gaining more women
players each year and this is
shown by the increased fields
in our tournaments" relates
Mrs. Kefeer. 1--WE had Al play
erS in our recent tourney at
Beaver Dam where heretofore
never more than Is competed
in the events at Beaver Dam.
"Of course, the fact that we
invited unattached women and
girl players to take part in our
tournaments this year has been
mainly responsible for the great
advance over last year.
Prospective entrants in the Star
Cup play can practice over the
Manor Club this morning and to-
morrow morning. Entries should
be made through the club chair
man while unattached players
should telephone Mrs. Keeter.

Match Play Rounds
Match play rounds are to be-
gin today in the Woodmont Club
tourney and the contestants will
find the going harder than on
the qualifying days because OF
the early morning rain.
j. Monroe Hunter, jr., of Indian
Spring, won the qualifying medal
when he reported with a "a late
yesterday afternoon. This was
five strokes over par and bettered
by one the score of rs turned N
by Major E. A. NoyeS, of the
Army and Navy Country Club, the
previous day.
However, Noyes had with.
drawn from the tourney and
Hunter had plenty of strokes to
spare. Nevertheless. he was forced
to squeeze a hardway par 4 on
the final green for his "a.
Hunter sliced a long tee drive
into the deep rough and didn't
help himself any by hooking his
second into the trap on the left
of the green. He nearly holcH
out with his niblick, however,
and got down in one putt. Hun
