SHARKEY LEADS.
CONzAGANEARER.
D. C. GOLF TITLE.

Buddy Sharkey, husky Gonzaga
High School golf captain, reeled
off q brilliant round Of 70 yester-
day at Washington Golf and
Country Club to lead his Purple
golfers to a 7 to Q victory over
Wilson High-their ninth consecu-
tive one in District scholastic
championship competition.
It was supposed to have been
the stumbling block that was to
tie up the championship and cause
q playoff with Bethesda Chevy
Chase for the title, but like all
others it proved just another romp
for the GonzaganS. Wilson, with
six victories against three defeats,
was the last real obstacle in the
path of GonZaga to the title and
now only Georgetown Prep and
Montgomery-Blair must be played
before the championship is Off
cially theirs.
BOGART DOWNED
The presentation ceremonies
could have just as well been made
yesterday at Washington for all
the trouble Georgetown and Mont
gomery-Blair will make for the 1
Streeters. Gonzaga meets the Lit
tie Hoyas next Thursday at Con
gressional Country Club, and then
MontgomeTy-Blair is met Tuesday,
May 81, at Indian Spring.
Ralph Bogart, captain of the
Wilson team was he best player
to meet Sharkey 6 I'd he, like all
the others, fell belOre the barrage
of pars and brides to find him
self dumped at the fourteenth
green by a 6-and-4 score. At that
Bogart was only three over par to
the fourteenth, but then the Con-
zaga youngSter was one under par
for the hilly Virginia course.
Don Quinn. Sharkey's partner in
crime, won his individual match
from Phil Donaldson, 8 and 7,
and aided materially in the Z and 6
best BAH score. In the second
