Page Trophy at Stake.

THE outside courts, which gained
such favorable support last year,
again will be used by the lightweight,

classes and the hunt teams.
Beside the $50 in cash prizes in the
green hunter event, the Horse Show

tered this year. The following year
she won with Grey Knight.

October Meet Suggested.

y" THINK it would be fine to have
all the better golf teams in the
Middle Atlantic section in Richmond
some time in October to play for
the Middle Atlantic championship,
Cruicky said. He was backed up by
Charles S. Withers, captain Of the
club team. "Of course, it seems to us
that we have pretty good team here,
but we'd like to try 'em against the
best in the sector" Bobby said. That's
the only way We could know how good
they are. Our course is good now,
but it will be better in October, and
the weather should be fine, too," he
added.
we could play the matches over a
week end, and If We had eight teams
of 10 men apiece We could have a
real team tournament"
The Middle Atlantic Golf Association
used to hold team championships, but
they were abandoned in 1921 when
only two teams showed up for the
title tourney of that year. 1t wouldn't
be a real team championship affair
unless at least half dozen clubs
sent teams along to play.

with Kenwood, which happens to
hold the team championship OF the
Maryland State Golf Association and
was the surprise package of the team
tournament last year. But those Vir-
ginia kids are darned good. There
isn't any doubt of that.

who has won couple Of tournaments
this year, with Frank Sutton. Tommy
Walden, Ernie Wiltshire and other lads
who have worked themselves into the
habit of busting the ball around in
par or better, the Virginia boys can

Lea scored a 68 last Saturday at
Washington, on his first trek around
that tricky layout. which gives you
an idea of how good he is. Scores of
70 and better roll off his clubs over
his home course like water from a

good, although he hasn't yet gotten
into the winning groove.
