- EVEN amateurs from Washing
ton qualified for the national
simon pure title tourney last
~ year and played in the tourna-
ment at Cleveland. Will the Capital
do as we'll this year in the sectional
qualifying test at Columbia on Tues
day?
With IL places open at Columbia
over the 36-hole test, it is more than
probable that Washington will grab
fully as many places as the local
amateurs won last year at Indian
Spring when there were IA places
open.
This year the contingent from
Virginia is absent.
Virginia has its own qualify
ing spot at Richmond, where
Bobby Reigel, State champion,
will make his bid for the
championship again.
The seven local qualifiers last year
were Roger Peacock, District champ;
Levi Yoder, mid-Atlantic champ;
Volney Burnett, Craig Mckee, Page
Hufty, Hickman Greene and Harry
Pitt.
Peacock went to the fourth round
in the national, where he was dumped
to the sidelines by Eddie Held. The
others didn't do so well.

- dearest rivals offer to replay
the entire third set Of their match
for the women's championship of the
Army Navy Country Club, which was
halted by rain in the ninth game OF
the third set yesterday.
Tied at 1-all in sets when the
downpour struck, Mrs Robinson was
leading, SO, with a deuce score in
the ninth game on Miss Clarke's
service. When rain made further
play impossible, Mrs. Robinson sug-
gested that the third set be started
anew to eliminate possibility of the
title being decided on two points
when both opponents were fresh.
Sticks Rigidly to Code.
RUT Edith demurred, insisted that
Rule 81 states that in case of
postponement the previous score and
previous occupancy of courts shall
hold good, unless the referee and the
players unanimously agree otherwise"
That unless" seemed to indicate to
Edith that it wasn't exactly good taste
to request a replay, so the girls will
resume with Miss Clarke serving at
deuce with the score against her, 3-5.
Thus, by a strict Interpretation of
tennis law, Miss Clarke practically
clinched the sportsmanship title of
the city, even though she should lose
the championship of her club.
Play Probably Tomorrow.
PUT said Edith good-naturedly
at the conclusion of the match,
I'm going to beat you, Marge!"
Hitting in great style, Edith routed
her rival in the first set by a 6-1
score, only one game going to deuce.
Mrs. Robinson evened the match with
a GA victory in the second, although
she had to stave off a determined
rush of her bronzed opponent, who
rallied from a is deficit.
The match probably will be con-
cluded tomorrow, inasmuch as Miss
Clarke is playing in a Baltimore tour
