have been awarded this section in
the qualifying rounds Of the anna

With this announcement comes
the pairings for the qualifying
rounds from the U. S. G. A,
through the office of the Mary
land State organization.
Twenty-one entries are listed to
compete over the Five Farms
course for the 36-hole stroke play.
OF the group seven are from
the Washington district. They are
Willie Shea, Congressional; For
rest Thompson and Martin F. Nc
Carthy, Beaver Dam; Page Hufty

Club; Levi Yoder, Kenwood, and
Paul j. Frizzeu, Columbia.
One From Virginia
Three entries are from the Han
over Country Club of Hanover, Pa,
and one, w. B. TomlinSon, Her
nitage Country Club, halls from
Virginia. The remainder are from
Baltimore and surrounding terri
tory.
With the likes of Yoder, Nc
Carthy, Quinter and Shea regis
tered for qualifying duty. the
chances are exceedingly bright for
a strong representation from the
District.
Yoder, who had a reversal of
form earlier in the local tourna-
ment season, is expected to be
back up on his game and rarin'
for the chance at this stellar
tourney.
Shea, the Georgetown freshman,
who landed the coveted Middle
Atlantic crown at Congressional
several weeks ago, is reported to be
shooting a brilliant brand OF golf
at his favorite course and should
be one of the heaviest choices to
bag one of the six positions.
Hot Weather Helps
Mccarthy, the Iron Horse, has
had ample time to pull into form,
and this, together with the hot
weather that is due back now,
should spur him on to a splendid
chance for q victory.
Quinter, the former Chevy
Chase Club champion, who has
been spaSmodic in his play to date,
may return to form and nab
spot. And this goes for Forrest
Thompson, too.
Don McPhail, runnerup to Shea
in the Middle Atlantic tourney, is
listed for the tourney and should
be one of the ace favoriteS to
cop the No. l position. He will
be galavanting over his home
course, which marks a decided
influence to his favor.
The amateur championship will
be staged at the Alderwood Coun-
try Club, Portland, Ore, this year,
from August % to %, inclusive.
