aver at the old and historic Chevy
~ Chase Club will start on Tuesday
the classic tourney for the Taft
and Sherman cups-one OF the out
standing tournaments Of the year for
the male golfers Of this section Of the
land. The Chevy Chase tourney is far
more than merely a Washington event.
It he's attained Nationwide fame and
in past years golfers have come from
far distant POINTS, to play for the
trophies donated by President Taft and
slways attracts q field Of the finest
golfers in this section OF the country
and a few visitors whose golf fame Is
more than local. This years tourney
will b. no exception for the established
rule of Chevy Chase events and Tues
day and Wednesday will find a large
and fine field qualifying for the four
flights In the event. Two days have
been given over to the qualifying round
this year, to be played Tuesday and
wednesday. Thursday and Friday will
be given over to the match play rounds.
Entries for the tourney, which is
strictly an invitation event, will close

held annually about the National
Capital.

ticularly impressive, and the fact Is that
the Manor Club star has not been play
ing the golf OF which he is capable. He
qualified high in the Washington tour
ney and was beaten in the second
match play round He tied for one Of
the last two places in the Woodmont
tourney and lost on the play-off Pitts
trouble this year has been largely con-
fined to his tee shots.
Instead OF the pin-splitting wallops
he usually hits from the tee, Pitt has
been driving in cratic fashion. How
ever, he always has been q late starter
and has rounded into form in time To
win the Chevy Chase tourney in i'm
pFessive style. He may come through
! again in characteristic Pitt fashion
In any event IL Is far too early to sing
the blues for Harry Pitt. He is too
