W|FFY THINKS 155
WILL LAND BERTH
Host Pro Figures 145 viii
Capture Top Honors at
Congressional.
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Some one of the so ambitious anna.
teur golfers from Washington, Mary
land and Virginia will score las for
two trips around the lengthy Con-
gressionai Country Club course next
Tuesday and grab himself the gold
medal which goes to the top scorer
Of the bunch. So Witty Cox, Congress
sional pro, thinks as he scans the
entries for the sectional rounds for
the amateur title tourney. to be run
of at Congressional over the 36-hole
play route Tuesday. II don't think
these boys will score as we'll as the
pros did in the Maryland open a
few weeks back" says Witty. But
one of them might do 145. and II
one Of them does I think he'll win
the medal. I also think 155 will
qualify"
Thirty-two of the so entrants who
will go for the eight qualifying places
are from Washington clubs. Eleven
are from the Baltimore area; four
from Pennsylvania and three from
Virginia, even though Richmond will
have separate qualifying section on
the same day. The eight top scorers
will 60 to Pittsburgh to play, starting
September II, for the crown won last
year by stocky little John Goodman
Of Omaha. The sectional rounds will
be handled by the District Of CO.
