The apparent lack Of enthusiasm
Tor the District amateur golf
championship, which begins to
morrow over the Indian Spring
Club course, indicates the top
fighters are willing to allow the
title to remain in the hands of
Roger S. Peacock without offering
opposition.
Peacock is the defending cham
pion and the 72-hole medal play
event will be settled over his
home course. Of course, Peacock
Is by far and wide the No. /
ranking golfer of the District
and it doesn't seem that anyone
would be able to outdistance him
In a 72-hole struggle over his
home course, where he knows
every blade of grass. Only
twelve have entered so far.
