DenneIL Beats BAIeStri
In BeAUer Dam Tourney
TYPO CHAMPION
HAD ELIMINATED
NC ART H Y, 81
BY CHICK KENNY

ing brothers were busily engaged
with tournament and invitation
play on foreign fields over the
weekend, thus making it fairly
light on local club courses, never
theleSs at Beaver Dam, where the
club championship is being staged
quite a battle was in progress
throughout yesterday.
p, AS usual in these club cham
pionship affairs, there are plenty
p. of fireworks and the LandoveI
event now in progress proved nc
exception.
The outstanding upset Of the
days play was the manner in
which Joe Balestri upset Martin
Mccarthy, 3 and 2. Those who
;, know Joe and his bag of clubs
,, claim the defeat Of Mccarthy was
: no upset. They point out that
Joe only last week won the Typo
golf tourney at Baltimore, and in
doing so set a new Typo tourna-
.ment record, but due to techni-
~calities was deprived Of winning
the event.
However, Joe is up on his game
now and bids certain to be one OF
the foremost performers in Wash
ington golf circles from now on
despite the fact that he lost to B.
e. Dennell in the second round
yesterday.
But to return to this Beaver
Dam play. There was an upset
or two. Roger Sheriff, in the
second round of the affair elm
mated the defending champion,
Forrest Thompson, / up in 10
holes, and the veteran Johnny
Miller lost to L. H. WeiSenberger,
up.
Thus play in the Landover tour
ney has a pair Of Semifinal1StS
who blew off the lid, and a pair
of semifinaliStS who were more
{, or less seeded to advance to this
stage of the event. The latter
are Eddie Ault, the medaliSt who
whacked j. Morris in the second
round, / up and B. E. Dennell'
the former Kenwood ace, who de-
feated none other than Joe Bales
tri. 3 and 2.
The club championship will be
decided next Sunday.
