GOLF HAND|CAPS
Of SCR|BES
SLASHED
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

The handicap committee for the
annual Cleland Cup festival for
local sports writers, enormously
called a golf tournament, were
shylocks when it came to allot-
ing handicapS. The committee
(Roddy Thomas and Shirley Po-
vich). welded the pruning knife
in slashing style.
In previous years, some of the
competitors carried fat handicapS
but that liberality passed with
the appointment of a new COM
mittee. 1t was the theory of this
committee that a writer, never
before having swung club,
should receive the full handicap
of "a strokes.
However, a prospective entrant
was penalized four strokes if he
had swung a club once, eight
strokes if he had swung twice
and so on. Yet, there are sev-
eral entrants whom the commit
tee overlooked" They're still
carrying the limit as was the
case when Capt. John R. D. Gle
land started this event back in
1925.
The annual tournament will be
held Monday at the War College.
