Some people are always worn out.
Their work is a strain. They seem

BAKERSFIELD, Cal, April 8
u.N.SO.-John Montague, the for
mer mystery man Of golfdom. was
one of the heroes today Of the
California open.
In the pro-amateur preamble to
the tournament, Montague, play
ing with Howard Hawks and
George Won Elm, shot an individual
ball of SO, four under par.
This was not good enough to
win the pro-amateur, but it tied
Lloyd Mangrum, of Dayton, Ohio,
and Johnny Dawson, Chicago. for
the best individual round Of the
day.
Montague said he did not think
he would be able to compete in
the open over the weekend, al
though he would like to. He did
not give his reason for not play
ing.
Montague played with a frac
tured left finger, but despite the
handicap, he pleased the gallery
with his well-placed drives.

HOYA L|NKSMEN
OPPOSE CORNELL

Local golfdom gets its first peek
at the 1888 Georgetown golf team
today as it prizes off the lid in the
opening match against Cornell at
Congressional.
The lads from the Hilltop are
expected to get off on the right
foot, but the match may give its
followers tipoff on what to eX-
pect from the Hoyas this year, not
that they aren't expecting plenty.
More than a few observers are
looking forward to an undefeated
season for the Blue and Gray
outfit in Eastern intercollegiate
league competition, to say nothing
of the national college team title
and of the individual collegiate
crown.
Any way you look at it, though,
the Georgetowners should have
about the classiest outfit in college
circles. With such individual stars
as Billy Shea, District and Middle
Atlantic champion; Johnny Burke,
three times Rhode Island amateur
champ and once open champ,
added to last years list Of Maury
Nee, Billy Dettweiler, Charlie Pet.
tijohn and Harvey johnson, the
team sizes up as somewhat better
than fair.
Last year the team won the
championship of the southern di.
vision of the Eastern Intercollegi
ate golf league without the services
of sophomores Shea and Burke
To say that the addition of these
two youngsters to the team will
be a big help is putting it mildly
They're likely to be the sparkplugs
that will carry the team to great
heights.
The team will probably line ur
with Nee in the number one slot
followed by Shea, Dettweiler
Burke, johnson and Pettijohn.
The fact that Dettweiler anc
Shea are playing over their home
terrain will not make it any easiel
for the visiting Cornell team

WILSON HOPEFUL
DESPITE DEFEAT
By PAUL BEACH

When Woodrow Wilson opens its
campaign in the interhigh base
ball series against Anacostia next
Tuesday, only an 8-5 defeat at
the hands of Episcopal of Alexan-
dria serves as any underline indi-
cation of what merit the Presidents
will put on the diamond.
The outstanding characteristic
of the team, according to Coach
Carl Heintel, is a fine, scrappy
spirit.
Although several members of
the squad show promise of develop
ing into lusty wallpapers, it will
take a great deal of work to attain
that goal, as was evidenced by,
Wednesdays sad total of four hits.
SPIRIT GOOD
Pitching weakness that was ap-
parent in the preliminary practice
sessions, became more noticeable
in the same game as the Alexan-
drians hammered the offerings Of
Dyer and Offutt for II hits.
Speed and good throwing would
seem to cast more favorable
light on the prospects of the Ne
braska Avenue lads, however, and
with the aforementioned fighting
spirit on tap, they deserve a ques-
ton mark rating that other con-
tenders would do well to watch.
