initial jousts were being played today.
In other words, Georgetown has
looked pretty good 30 far. but they
pay off on what happens starting to-
day-in the Eastern League at least.
And if Georgetown wins today. which
they should do, and happens to have
winning week end at Tigertown next
week. they'll smack in the middle Of
the Eastern League championship
play-off, probably against Yale. which
should win the northern half of the
league. Princeton licked Penn yester-
day, to 4.
You can't say too many things about
that current Hoya combination.
Enough has been written about them
to convince even the most skeptical
followers of links affairs that the
Hoyas have a team that is going to
town this year in college golf.
Maybe 30 far to town that
they'll win the national college
team title and perhaps the in
dividual championship as well.
But the point is that they need two
victories today to get of on the right
foot in a manner of speaking. They
shouldn't have too much trouble do
ing it, either, for John Burke played
the tricky course in 70 whacks yester-
day. Billy Shea was II and the other
boys hovered not far above par. Those
Hilltop lads are strictly big league this
wear. They'll have the crying towels
out at the other Eastern colleges be-
fore the week is out.

ways at his best in the spring (and
he isn't 20 bad at any other time OF

In the Washington Golf and Country
Club tourney today and headed for
another triumph at Chevy Chase next
week. Just as he did last year. when
he won at Woodmont and Chevy Chase,
he can do the same thing this year.
Levi added to his collection of assorted
golf prizes yesterday by grabbing the
Washington tourney final, defeating
w. r. McCallum (yep. the conductor
of this column) by 2 and l in the
final. And he might have won by
bigger margin had he been strictly the
golfer who licked Francis Ouimet back
in 1895. Yoder still is. In our book

in when he needs them.

AtNotionoI

AS previously announced Brock
Pemberton will open the theatri-
cal season of 193a39 at the
National Theater with Clare
Boothe's new comedy, kiss the
Boys Goodbye" on Monday
night, September 10. The event
should be a gala one as the
eyes Of the theatrical world are
focused on this, Miss Boothe'S
first offering since her biting
and highly successful comedy.
1.-THE Women" was disclosed two
seasons ago.
THE NEW PLAY
The new play is entirely diff.
ferent from that iconoclastic
disclosure of back-hair-taker-
downerS. It will be recalled
there were no men in that one;
in her new work Miss Bootha
has reversed the order and
while there are four women
characters there are more than
twice that many men. kiss
the Boys Goodbye" is sattrical
comedy in which the mo-es and
morals of Northern and South
ern, cafe and Hollywood Soci-
ETY. are contraSted against the
background of a Connecticut
country house weekend. NO
one escapes unscathed.
EXCELLENT CAST
Mr.. Pemberton has assembled
an excellent cast for the comedy,
recruited both from the ranks
Of popular Manhattan players
and the talented army Of new.
comerS. In past productions,
among which are Enter
Madame" Miss Lulu Bett," the
plays of Pirandello, Strictly
Dishonorable," Ceiling zero"
and Personal Appearance" MIR.
Pemberton has consistently fol-
lowed the policy of introducing
new talent. The cast in alpha
betical order, includes John
Alexander, Ollie Burgoyne,
Helen Claire, Wyman Holmes,
Sheldon Leonard, Lex Lindsay,
Hugh Marlowe, Millard Mitch
ell. Edwin Nicander, Philip Ober,
Carmel White, Frank Wilson
and Benay Venuta.
ABLE DIRECTION
Antoinette Perry, whose direc.
ton of Strictly DiShonorable,"
Ceiling Zero" and Personal
Appearance" placed her in the
top flight of directors, has di-
rected the play. The settings are
by John Root and Margaret
Pemberton has supervised the
women'S costume which include
many of the latest creations OF
American and French coutu-
rierS.
The seat sale opens today at
the National.
