Volney Burnett won't be around to

tilt the skids under the reign of
Washingtons amateur stars in the
Old Line State simon-pure golf classic.
The Maryland State Golf Association

over the course of Rodgers Forge

affair it has been in recent years,
when 80 men qualified in a 36-hole
qualification round and then went
for five rounds of match play. will
return to the regulation quail

It's sensible move and will find
far more favor with the divot fingers
than the old marathon champion

The Maryland boys are cunning
for the Washington lads, anyhow.
Club swingers from the amateur

enjoyed the same success in Mary

have won few State championships

Champion Spencer Overton in the
Anal. That same Overton, meticu-
lous and painstaking. will be the man
to whip in the coming State title
affair at Rodgers Forge.
He's just about the best man In
the State outside of the Washington
area. and there won't be any Roger
Peacock around to get in the hair Of
the Maryland boys. Roger at present
has no club connection. He has
resigned from Congressional and ulti-
mately will wind up at Indian Spring,
scene Of his former glories.
Final Round on Sunday.

Of becoming an Washington event
