- public links championship,
to determine a successor to
red-headed George Malloy,
the title holder, will be held on
Wednesday, instead of tomorrow,
as originally planned. In place
of the championship tilt itself be-
tween first-f1ight winners at East
Potomac Park and Rock Creek
Park, the two finalistS at East Po-
tomac Park are billed to meet to-
morrow, with the city title itself
to rest on the outcome of the
match on Wednesday.
Harland Will the elongated young
ster who won the medal at East Poto-
mac Park, with a card Of 72, is to meet
John M. Downey in the final round at
the down-river park tomorrow
Claude Rippey, the lengthy North
Carolinan, who has won the Rock Greek
Park final, is favorite among those in
the know to win the title. But those
douhty East Potomac Park supporters
claim that if the East Potomac Park
winner can hold Rippey even at Rock
Greek, he can win at East Potomac,
particularly If the victor happens to be
be Harlan viii. This youngster has
been performing in such spectacular
fashion all this year that AL Farr and
his cohorts at Potomac think he is the
best golfer in the entire group of mu-
nlclpal links players. On the other
hand, up at Rock Greek Park they
claim Rippey is too straight and too
long to lose to any one who plays public
links golf around Washington.
TWENTY entrants from Washing
ton clubs are among the 48 play
ers billed to compete in the sec
tional qualification rounds for the ma
tional amateur championship at Co
lumbia week from tomorrow. The

area in the championship at Cincinnati

teurs around Washington with few ex-
ceptions are in the tourney, according

Chase lad, who won his club tourney
last Spring, is in Maine, but will be
here to play in the sectional rounds
Page Hufty of Congressional will at
tempt to qualify in the Boston area,
with sectional rounds to be played at
Brae Burn, where he failed to qualify
