Just 80 years ago tomorrow, the
Daily Maroon, student newspaper,

other group of teams in their or

football team is getting to be a
joke in the eyes of the American
public and sore spot to the alumni.
Derisive Taunts Irksome. -
"Our school has become a benev-
olent institution furnishing material
on which newspaper writer's all over
the country may practice cleverness
when they have nothing better to
fill space.
For the football team, however,
the matter isn't such a big joke.

men 60 out on the field to be over

You don't hear much about links

around 200 members-most of them

is the series known as the Senatorial
Breakfast Foursomes, held each
Sunday throughout the year. Every
one who can get out to the club
early enough Sunday plays in these
affairs. Walter R. Tuckerman is
the presiding genius and handicap
per. Prizes are awarded for the
winning four-ball match, two-ball
match and the winning individual.
But Burning Tree holds cham
pionships, too. Roger Whiteford, the
barrister, who happens to be one
OF the best southpaw linksmen
around town, has Just won the
club championship. Whiteford licked
John E. Mcclure in the final round
by 2 and l. Mcclure previously
had beaten Page Hufty, former
tltleholder and present champion
OF Chevy Chase Club.
Burning Tree, with its woods
frlnged fairways, happens to be one
OF the more rugged tests of golf
around Washington. So perhaps it's
a good thing that the members IN
woke Judge Payne's rule a little
concession to muscles unused to the
golf swing which permits two balls
to be hit from the first tee. Cabi-
net officers and plain businessmen
alike all drive two balls from the
first tee at Burning Tree. They
have the choice of the better tee
shot.
Il think every one who doesn't
play a lot of golf should have a
fair chance from the opening tee"
said Judge Payne. He made the
rule when he was green's chairman
at that club 10 years ago. 1t has
been used ever since and there isn't
any doubt of its popularity. Every
one uses it.
Sometimes the members think it
might be a good idea to extend it
to most of the other holes, for the
Burning Tree course isn't one where
you can be wild from the tee. For
the long hitter it is probably the
"tlghtest" course around town. You
can't slice or hook into those woods
and play a brassie second to the

The situation apparently is no

DR.. Hutchins witnessed the
slaughter of his boys by Harvard

squad.
Don't let the score bother you,
the team played a good game to-

muscular Art Hart, the chocolate

hooks to the midriff. Hart was
down three times In the fourth

fifth. 1t was a scheduled eight

The bout saved an otherwise dis

and laugh it off. Hart was visibly
astonished and discouraged in the

Three womens golf events this

Other tournaments may come along,
similar to the affairs held last year
by the Washington and Army Navy

This afternoon at Indian Spring
and Manor Clubs the feminine asso-
citation will stage its windup of the
team tournament held last spring.
Members of all District club teams

pete for trophies put up by the as
sociation. First teams will play at
Indian Spring, with second and
third teams competing at Manor.
Team Meet in Baltimore.
Tomorrow at Baltimore an all
star team of feminine golfers from
Washington will try to prove again
the supremacy of the women from
the Capital in team play in this
sector. For several years now the
Washington women haven't had
much opposition. But this year the
Baltimore gals have a much
stronger outfit than in past years,
and an upset may be recorded. The
Washington team, much the same
team that lost to Philadelphia this
week. will be strengthened by the
addition of Mrs. Betty p Meckley.
Next Friday the feminine golfers
will play in the National Broadcast
ing Co. Tournament at the Army
Navy Country Club.
Rich First Prize.
First prize in this tournament will
be the most expensive prize any
women's tourney ever has had
around Washington. The top prize
will be pair of matched silver fox
skins, arranged as a scarf and do
mated by a local furrier.
For this tourney there is no entry
fee and entries will close tomorrow
They are being taken by Mrs.
j. S. Phillips at Chestnut $500. Mail
entries should be addressed to Mrs.
Phillips at 1415 South Barton street,
Arlington, Va, Apartment 249. The
N. B. c. tourney usually attracts the
largest field of the year, and this
year the starting field may go over

will be awarded, all donated by local

For Marion Brown, the acknoWl-
edged queen of 'eminine golf locally
in 1888, the current year will go
down as the runner-up year. Prob
ably in no year to come, If Marion
continues her competitive golf, will
she be so consistently thwarted in
final rounds as she was in major
tournaments this year. The girl is
too good golfer and too fine a
competitor to be moved down in
final rounds as she was this year.
1t shows up again the many angles
of match-play golf, where such pal
try things as the half turn of ball
into or away from the cup can mean
a championship. Such things dc
happen and scores of champion
ships have hinged on the thickness
of a blade of grass.
Marion played in three major Sec
tional tournaments this year. In
two of them she was runner-up. In
her own club championship-at
Manor-she was runner-up again
The only big one in which she failed
to 60 anywhere was the Maryland
State title affair at Congressional
where Mrs. Jerome Sloman, the
eventual winner, beat her in an early
round.
Why, you may ask, could a girl
win almost everything in sight one
year and win nothing the next year?
Particularly when, apparently, she
was playing as we'll as during the
big year.
Marion's Putting Sour.
Obviously the answer is that she
wasn't playing as we'll, or that she
wasn't scoring as WELL Digging a
little deeper, it seemed to me that
Marion's putting this year fell lit
tie short of the skill she showed on
the greens last year. When you put
two good golfers together, such as
Marion Brown and Betty Meckley
the whole thing depends on the
putting. They are equally matched
up to the green and both are good
and consistent hitters who make few
mistakes. Usually 10-foot putt or
two decides matches like this.
Marion, however. more than made
up for her lack of championship win
ming around Washington by her
showing in the national women's
title tourney. She qualified easily
among the 81 top feminine golfers OF
the land, met and vanquished Glen
ma Collett Ware, six times cham
pion, in the first round, and then
succumbed to long hitting Maureen
Orcutt in the second round only
after the grimmest kind of battle,
on the 23rd hole You don't play
mediocre golf to do those things, and
you can't be gutter.
All of which makes it more queer
that Marion reached the final round
in three tournaments this year, and
failed to win a single one. She lost
to Mrs. Leo Walper on the 10th hole
in the District championship final;
lost her Manor Club crown in the
final to Mrs. l.. G. Pray, and then
lost again in the Middle Atlantic
championship final to Mrs. Walter r
Stokes. So 1889 will go down in
