BRACE OF young gOHHS Con-
~ quistadores from nearby Vir-
~ ginia are all set to steal the
show in the sectional elimina-
ticn rounds at Chevy Chase tomorrow
for the national amateur championship
So fast have these youngsters from the
Old Dominion State been travelling tnat
they are more than likely, II they main
tain the pace they have set in prac-
tice, to scrap 1t out for the lead be-
tween them.
One of them, Billy Howell Of Rich

lilies, Is only 10. The other, Chandler
Harper, from Portsmouth, which Is
hard by the old sea-faring city OF Nor
folk. has Just turned 18. So fast can
these Virginia kids travel on any mans
golf course that it Is entirely possible
the sectional tests tomorrow will see
them looking back to see who is going
to be third in the arduous 36-hole trek.
Perennial rivals. these two, and ad-
mittedly the finest in the State of Vir-
ginia. Billy is the same blond kid who
almost blew last years ami teur cham
pionship wide open. Harper Is the
saturnine ck-haired. black-eyed lad
who beat Billy to win the Virginia
State title two years back. Both quail
ied for the amateur last year and both
got into the match play rounds, but
Billy went further than his rival.
HARPER, according to rumor, has
i / ambitions TO turn professional.
He would be good one, too.
Billy Howell, just graduated from
Washington and Lee University, is
trying to land a job and get start in
life
Just to show what might be expected
of them these lads travelled 36 holes
over the Chevy Chase layout yesterday
in 14l and 142 strokes-either of
which may be good enough to get the
sponsor thereof gold medal tomorrow.
Harper stuck together two fine rounds
of IL and 70. while Howell, after an
indifferent" "A in the morning, reeled
off a brilliant So in the afternoon. A
% which might have been "a or
better had a few 8 and 10 foot puts
found the bottom of the tin. So fast
did these Virginia kids travel that no
one else was within hailing distance OF
them, although many of the out-of-
town entrants practiced over the
course.
Harper's 70 came in a foursome in
which he and G. Brown Miller opposed
Reggie" LOTUS and Howell, and even
though it was l above par, it seemed
mediocre performance alongside the
scintillating 68 that Howell produced
Billy was impeccable He reminded us
of the days when George Voigt used
to burn up the local courses. He played
both mines in "a and bagged two birds
on the route
Earlier in the day Howell had played
with Gene Larkin, c. Ashrnead Fuller

play the course in g. Inspired by this
round Billy stepped out in the after

Washington Pro Is Within
One Stroke of 66 Record
Many Times.

Will De broken. WISH Was

The speaker was Davie Thomp-
+ son, the little master of golf, who
holds down the professional berth
at the Washington Golf and
Country Club. Davie gazed out
across those rolling hills which
have consistently thwarted his
ambition to hold the course rec
ord since the day back in 1927
when Maurice J. Mccarthy, then
GEORGETOWN student, plowed his
way around that rugged course in
66 strokes.
Davie has had at least a dozen CTS
since Mccarthy blazed around the
Washington layout in 35-3l. but that
66 still eludes him. Not once but
half-dozen times he has come to the
last three holes Needing brace OF
pars and birdie to do a 66, but each
time he has failed to get. that birdie
which would enable him to tie Nc
Carthy's mark Frank K. Roesch and
Henry D Nicholson, former amateur
stars of the Washington club. both have
scored 67S, but they also have fallen
a stroke short Of tying the mark set
by the black haired Irishman from
Georgetown.
Nowadays, with both Nicholson and
Roesch out of the club, it isn't likely
! that any of the amateurs who perform
at Washington will have a chance to
score far below 10. For the pair named
were tust about the hottest pieces of
! golfng machinery at Washington. With
them gone there doesn't appear to be
an amateur capable of tying or break
! ing that record. So Davie Thompson
is the lone man at Washington who
! has a chance And it looks bad for
me-" Davie says. I'm not putting as
