ENTY-TWO-YEAR OLD Roger
i Peacock, Indian Spring luminary
and car of the boisterous anna
teur golf game in the District of Co.
Iumoia end neighboring precincts in
Maryland. Is stepping along at a pace
that threatens nothing but headaches
for his rivals in the District amateur
title chase, and forecasts a possible
good showing in the national amateur
by the black-haired youngster.
A streak of sub-pdr scoring
that netted him several rounds
under par oper his home course
came to Gilman yesterday when
against Harry G. Pitt-his chief
riudl-in a match over Harru's
nome course at Manor.
When the smoke had cleared away
and a flock of enthusiastic Manor
boosters who had gone out to cheer
Ior Harry and remained to applaud for
Roger totaled up the scores they found
that the smooth-swinging Indian Spring
lad had burned up their golf course
with round of 64-something not even
the Oldest resident had ever thought
possible.
Never before had the course been
done In better than Ga mark which
Harry Pitt and Al Treder, the home
pro, both shared. But the Peacock
youngster, welding his trenchant clubs
with all the fnesse of a national cham
pion, nursing red-hot putter carefully
throughout the fray, waded over the
1ntlmidating woods nine In "a, one un-
der par, and then proceeded to take
the more difficult last nine apart for
80, six strokes under par.
The net result Of this immaculate
Snooting was 81, FOR a new unofficial
course record seven strokes better than
the alleged perfect" figure, a victory
for Peacock and DR.. L. S. Otell against
Pitt and j. William Harvey, jr., and a
lot OF pop-eyeS for the gents who fol-
lowed the youngster as he ploughed
his way over the last nine holes.
Roger picked up nine birds in
his round, three Of them on the
first nine and six on the last nine,
ending the round by canning
20-footer for . bird on the final
green.
Harry Pitt shot a SO, his second sub
par score in two days, but against the
golf of Peacock, even his spectacular
scoring looked puerile. And to make
matters worse Otell helped Peacock by
two strokes, giving them a best ball Of
81. Against such golf Pitt and Harvey
succumbed by a and 2 margin,
The course was not particularly fast,
either, Tor rain on Saturday night
had slowed down the fairways. The
Peacock lad looks like a good competitor
in the national at Cincinnati next
month II he goes out and shoots his
game, and forgets the big names car
ried by the other competitors.

u brating smashing victory over
