Marty Is being touted as q better

That line of talk is not being handed
out to New Workers. The coast Ital-
ian, also a graduate from the Frisco
Club, looks the best bet among young
sters to come up in years and Marty
will have to be mighty good to per-
form up to Joe's first year in the
majors.
Buddy Lewis has been confidently

Werber Is more experienced and

Wonen's golf has been speeded up
considerably around Washington over
the last few years. It hasn't been 50
many years ago that any player who
broke 90 won the gross prize in q
major event and any net score which
dipped into the 70s won the net award
But that's all changed now. At any
tournament played over the last two
or three years the gross winner usually
has been down In the low 80s-some-
times In the high 70s-and the net
winners usually have been well below
the 80 mark. Handicapping has beer
improved and q constant check kept
on scores has provided the most EN-
cient handicapping system Of any
