w YITH vastly improved weather
AA conditions and a slower
" " course, those who play today
in the Inter-Departmental
League tourney at the Washington
Golf and Country Club have fine
chance to, top the leading score turned
in yesterday by Maj. Richard K.
Sutherland, Arnly-Navy Country Club
champion. A field of 6o-odd play
ers were to wind up the annual compe-
tition among employees of Uncle Sam
over the rolling course in Virginia.
The three big shots of yesterday all
played poorly. First it was Tom Belshe,
who won the title last year, turning in
brace of 83s for total of 166. Then
it was Sutherland, who scored 3l-79-
160 to lead the field with such a me-
diocre card. Then the steady veteran,
John R. Miller, who, like Sutherland
and Belshe, should play any course in
rs, who sky-rocketed up to 83 in the
morning and only partially came back
in the afternoon with 78 for total of
161. Some of the starters today, with
better conditions, and absence of the
heat which bothered those who played
yesterday, should shatter the l60 mark
set by Sutherland.
NJ. c. Trowbridge of the Interstate
Commerce Commission has long lead
IN the event for the net trophy with
card Of 165-26-139.
