- Club, that old landmark Of
local golf, set up back in 1912
on a hilltop overlooking the Potomac
River near Glen Echo, Md. For the
last four years Bannockburn has been
operating as semi-public golf course.

pay-as-you-play proposition, but
meanwhile complete reorganization,
now in process of being worked out,

Owen j. Martin, former manager of
the Montgomery County Country Club,

In his debut he overwhelmed LIE Roy

achievement was an upset of Sarron

AzCait Coming of Champion

Jim Londos, the Greek Adonis
who has ruled as king of the heavy
weights for the past six years,
comes to town Tuesday to do
job" in defense of his title. Londos
hooks up with Billy Edwards. the
tough Texan and sole owner Of the
"chiropractic" hold, in the feature
attraction on the all-heavyweight
wrestling card at Sports Arena.
The title holder is said to recog-
nize Edwards as worthy foe and
there is every indication of action
when the stars come to grips. Lon
dos seldom relies on two-flSted
style of attack, but he is capable of
dishing out punishment when
aroused, and it is probable that he
will find it necessary to resort to an
aggressive offense against the
Texan.
Billy has high hope of "pulveriz-
ing" the champion with his we'll
known "head-buster" he can
make the proper contact. He rates
the champ no different than any
other grappler when it comes to
stacking up against the "chiro-
