Hunt VS.. Lott Features.

DoOLEY has progressed through
the tournament without the loss
of set, Ray Stocklinski being his
latest victim, bowling yesterday by the
scores Of 6-3, 6-4.
Markey, the third seeded local en-
trant, faces the tournaments unsung
dark horse, in little Arthur Simmons,
champion of Harrisburg and conqueror
of two of the best who have played
at Edgemoor this week. Bill Buchanan
became Simmons first impressive VIC
tim. and the quiet Pennsylvania fol-
lowed that up yesterday with three
set victory over Lieut., Comdr Dewitt
Redgrave. 1-6, 81, 60. Redgrave
previously had eliminated Ricky Willis,
who had been seeded seventh in the
local list.
After concluding his unfinished
match with Alan Staubly by taking
the third set at love, Markey polished
off the veteran Tom Mangan, g.,
60, yesterday to become Simmons
opponent.
Today's feature, of course, was the
match between Hunt and Lott, thought
by some to be the class of the local
and nonresident entrants. Although
seeded behind Mitchell in the home
town ratings, Hunt has shown more
power with less exertion than any
man in the tournament. He has DROP
ped only seven games in two matches,
both Of which were won in straight
sets. Yesterdays 81, 6-1 victory
over Herb Shenkin, who was in the
first 10 here several years ago, was
exemplary of his weeks play.
Lott, who has not played since whip
ping Tony Latona on Tuesday, was
depending upon his powerful service
to keep Hunt away from the net where
he Is so dangerous.

NEW TENNIS BODY
TO GOVERN IN D. c.
Leading Racketers of City
Plan AII-Comprehensive
Association.

NYA A UNANIMOUS vote, sur
x prisingly large and enthusiast
tic group of local tennis devo-
tees last night hailed the mo-
ton to form new net association in
Washington, as representatives from
practically every court group in the
city joined in the momentous step at
Edgemoor Club.
Altogether, 19 leading Capital ten
mis- figures, including country club
members, league officials, players and
men whose names have been synony-
nous with the game of tennis for
years. whole-heartedly adopted the
suggest of Tom Markey that an or
ganization to govern all things tennis
in Washington be created.
That the name be inclusive of all
nearby as we'll as local groups inter-
ested in the sport, it was tentatively
agreed that the organization be called
the Washington and Suburban Ten
mis- Association.
t Committee Named.
GIVEN a clear explanation Of the
purposes of the new body by Stan
McCaskey, another ranking player,
who acted as temporary chairman,
the group empowered him to appoint
a committee which would formulate
bylaws and present two states of Of
f1cers for the next meeting of the
association, which will be held at
Wardman Park Hotel August 81.
On the Organizing Committee are
Dorette Miller, vice president of the
Women's League; Maj. c. W. Chris
tenberry of Army-Navy Country Club;
Louis I. Doyle, official of the old
Washington Tennis Association and
currently one of the most jealous
workers in the sport; William o.
Shreve, treasurer of the National Cap
ital Parks League, and Bill Dismer, jr.,
Of The Evening Star. McCaskey will
act as chairman of the committee.
Doyle. citing the contrast between
the new association and the old, de-
clared that the sole objective of the
former body had been to avoid con-
ficting dates between various net or
ganizations, the association never
being pretentious enough to take ad-
ditional steps.
Fund to Be Established.
THE new body would encourage the
development of junior players
and create a treasury for their
promotion, besides sponsoring larger
local tournaments and ranking local
players at the end of the season. As
a foundation for the new treasury,
officials of the Edgemoor Club an
nounced that all surplus from the
receipts of the Middle Atlantic tour
nament now in progress would be
turned over to the new body. Co.
lumbia Country Club representatives
indicated that the surplus Of the
recent District tournament, which that
club sponsored, also would be do
mated.
In addition to the aforementioned,
the following attended the meeting:
Ray Gable Of Argyle Club, Bob Doyle,
Harrison Hathaway. Owen Howen-
stein and A. o. White of Columbia
Country Club; Ralph Adair, Chet
Adair. David johnson, Strand john
sen. Tom Markey and Dooly Mitchell
of the Edgemoor Club, and Jim Heis-
kell and Felix Silva, vice president
and secretary of the National Capt.

BY GEORGE HUBER.

|THOSE who travel far afield for
their game fishing will be in
terested in the catch made in
- the Mersey River, near Liver
pool, Nova Scotia, early this month by
Mr. and Mrs. E. U. Ihle, 1915 Gera-
MUM street. In one day they hooked
|32 pollock, whose weight totaled $50
pounds. The largest weighed 80
pounds.
Mrs. Ihle, who was using a coast
oreno plug, reports that the minute
her lure hit the water two pollock took
It, so that the first catch of the day
was two-in-one.
A variation of the two-in-one catch
Is that made by Sol Minister and j. H.
Houston down on the bay recently.
They were fishing from opposite sides
Of the boat near Solomons Island, and
they both hooked the same hardhead
ut the same time.
DEv. H. B. WoODING, pastor of
~ the lexington Place Presbyterian
Church, is probably one of the most
enthusiastic anglers in the local min
istry. During the bass season, he
seldom misses casting at least one day
q week for those gamesters in nearby
Maryland and Virginia waters. He is
now visiting his parents in Ontario,
Canada, near several well-Stocked
lakes. Writing to a friend here, DR..
Wooding said that on the first day he
fished one Of those lakes he caught IS
bass, pike and pickerel. The small
mouth bass weighed 3A and 31s
pounds, and one of the pickerel 4
pounds. The natives seldom look at
fish that size, he explains, as they
consider them no more than minnows.

their fly rods recently have found that

n YOR can you Judge golf hole by

" the book by its cover. Any
L man who has played the sixth
hole at Columbia will testify that that
hole is one of the harder two-shot
holes around Washington. Indeed so
tough is it that Chick Evans once
included 1t as one of his ideal golf
holes on an idealistic golf course.
But don't let anyone kid you that
YOU can't miss shot on the hole and
still score q birdie. Or better still,
ask Stewart Barr how it's done. And
not with mirrors either. Stewart
goes Hollywood one better. In place
of the traditional mirrors which are
EXPENSIVE and troublesome Stewart
takes what comes along. In this case
It's a couple Of trees far outside the
out of bounds fence on the left of the
sixth fairway. Stewart hit lengthy
tee shot, and knocked his second shot
toward the green. But midway Of its
fight the darned pill took big hook,
heading clear over the fence. 1t hit
the tree, ricochetted twice, and
bounced back onto the green where
he sank a four foot putt for the birdie.
Miller Stevinson and Clyde B. Asher
were the men on the receiving end Of
the birdie, while Narvey Johnson
looked on and cheered. He was Bars
partner, and the match finished all
square.
