Since the two classy combina-
tions of Tom Mangan and Bob

Eddie Yoemans passed out of the
local picture two years ago, local
mems doubles teams have only
been fair to middling.
For while it appeared likely

Chamber on the stage when Man.
gan and Markey threw their lots
together for a tournament or two,
cleaning up all opposition with
dispatch. But Markey was forced
to abandon regular playing due to
business pressure and that stellar
alliance went a-glimmering.
Peerless Team
Yesterday Hunt and Mclean
took the measure of a team,
Gwynn King and Dooly Mitchell,
which six years ago was without
a peer in Middle Atlantic circles.
Nor was this combination any
thing like a push-over yesterday.
The two veterans snatched the
first set with ease and seem to
have everything under control,
when the juniors started clicking
like Well-oiled machines and
grabbed the second set to make
it all even.
In the deciding set the battle
waged nip-and-tuck until it was
deuced, with the kids matching
their more seasoned rivals shot
for shot all the way. With the
set deuced Hunt and Mclean
sprung their biggest surprise
when they produced that extra
kick which gave them victory,
3-6, Ga, IS, and established
them as one tough duet on the
courts.
Hard Going Ahead
However, the two boys will
have plenty of hard going in
their march toward the crown.
In the semifinals today they op-
pose Tony Latona and Frank
Shore, who have piled up an i'm
pressive record in three or four
years as a doubles team.
Should they hurdle this OBJ
Stacle. they will have to clash in
the finals with Mangan and Alex
Craven, men thoroughly schooled
in every trick of tennis by long
and arduous experience.
If the youngsters finally annex
the diadem there will be no de-
nying them their niche as the
foremost doubles of the Capital.
Craven and Mangan served
notice on the prospective finalists
in the other bracket that they
are not in a mood for fooling
when they bounced Bill Seidell
and Gene Hermann off the courts
yesterday, 60, GO, in the semi
final.
Mangan and Mitchell were to
conclude their match for the Dis
trict singles crown early today.

The foregoing questions are ad-
vanced in a letter penned by a
Staunch supporter Of intercolle-
giate athletics, who suggests that
the conference at its next meeting
probably will eliminate the So
called conference black list" for
the purpose of achieving amity
between colleges Of the conference
and the three colleges of the Dis
trict of Columbia-Georgetown,
George Washington and Catholic
University.
Their Reasons Differ
The Southern Conference states
that it does not publish the So
called blacklist" for any such
purpose as is suggested by the
first question. However, on the
other hand, many well-informed
people insist that the obvious pur-
pose of publishing the list is to
protect the District of Columbia
as conference territory for confer
ence teams in the vicinity Of the
District"
Regardless Of conference intent
in the matter, publication of the
list had led to much unpleasant
ness and not a little ill-feeling.
It is almost impossible to escape
the conviction that the money
motive is strong in all plans in
Volving intercollegiate athletics,
especially if one is familiar with
the background Of intercollegiate
competition.
Basis for Friendship
Whether or not Washington is
now necessary to the monetary
success of some of the Southern
Conference colleges is a question
which one must answer for him.
self after equipping himself with
essential facts. Certainly, under
a sensible plan, worked out by the
three District teams and member
colleges Of the conference, Wash
ington could be made into an at
tractive football center for all
concerned.
Many grid fans admit of a pref
erence for such teams as Virginia,
North Carolina, North Carolina
State, Washington and Lee, V. M.
I. and others Of the conference,
providing those teams play any of
the three local elevens.
More than likely, if all colleges
involved were to get down to a
friendly basis a happy solution
for all concerned could be worked
out.

Breaks Old Record
Almost unknown before his en-
, try in this tournament, Nolan
sailed forth this morning with
the gallery at his heels, due to
his feat yesterday in equalling
the record for the new course
long held jointly by Bobby Jones
and Cyril Tolley.
From the first tee to the last,
William Patrick Nolan-to give
this record breaker his full name
made what is probably the
hardest golf course in the world
look like one of those dear de-
parted vest-pocket links on the
street corner.
When he sank a three-yard
putt for a birdie three at the
eighteenth amid ringing cheers,
he established fresh st. Andrews
history. He not only broke the
former record of SO, held jointly
by the immortal Jones and
George Duncan, by one stroke,
but he became the first 1rishman
ever to lead the qualifiers in the
British open championship.
Ironically, George Duncan, vet
eran British star, finished a few
minutes after Nolan with a IA for
q total of 148. With Bobby
Jones, Duncan had shared the
previous record for the old course
"a 68 that went into the discard
when Nolan and his magic clubs
devastated the links today. His

DenSmore Shute, the American
Ryder cup star, almost ruined his
chances by carding a bleak 81 to-
day, and only his IS of yesterday
made it possible he would qualify
with his score of 1855.
Cyril Tolley, veteran British
performer, shot far better golf
than yesterday to card a II, but
his total of 1853 made him a
doubtful qualifier. A. j. Lacey,
who aided Britain to victory in
the Ryder cup tourney last week,
did so badly he was obliged to
retire.
Robert Sweeney, American
amateur residing in England,
failed to qualify, carding a 78 to-
day for a total of 1854. R. A.
Whitcombe, Britain, carded 78
for 154 and Arthur Havers, of
England, II for total Of 155.
Puts Go Astray
Johnny Farrell tailed II
matching par for the first nine,
but three-putting four greens
coming home. Farrell's 36-hole
score totals 154. Abe Mitchell
took a 79 today but qualified
with a total of 153. Charles

today, duplicated his IS of yes
