Earlier Date Boosts
Entry for Women's S
Title Golf Event

Inc experiment OF the United
States Golf Association-requested
by the competitors themselves-of
holdlng the national feminine title
tourney in August, rather than late
september, has resulted in one of
the largest entry lists in the history
OF the women's links classic. The
tournament will be held at the Wee
burn Club, near Noroton. Conn.
starting August 81, with a qualifying
round.
AT least four Washington women.
headed by Mrs. Leo Walper, the
District Womens champion, will
start IN the affair in which Patty
Berg, 1888 winner, will not defend
her crown. Patty is recovering from
an operation.
II the entry list goes to 200 as ex-
pected, 1t will be the largest in the
history of the national tournament.
For the past two years the women's
title affair, held in late September.
has been hampered by rain. The
women have played in bad weather
conditions. Last year they submit
ted to the United States Golf Asso-
clatlon a petition asking that the
tourney be held earlier to get away
from equinoctial weather conditions.
The U. S. G. A. set this years tour
ney for late August, when the
weather is presumed to be settled.
The Weeburn course is a rugged
layout for women. Long, and with
many narrow fairways, it should be
quite test for the best shotmakers
among the feminine golfers of the
world. This year Pam Barton, 1896
champion, and Carrie Tiernan. Irish
champ, are in this country and will
try to lift the crown.
Headed by Clarence E. Purdy. Fred
Strlnger, E. B. Heimer and E. A..

championships until September
Capital will get its club title tour
ney under way this month, to wind
up October l. And at the same time
the final of the club championship
is being played the caddies also
will play their caddie title final.
That's another of the nice things
they do at Capitals caddie cham
pionship.
Out there at the hilly course
above Glen Echo today quite a
group of women were playing in the
first invitation tourney staged by
the Capital Club. No pairings were
made. as Mrs. w. H. Fox, tourna-
ment chairman, preferred that the
contestants arrange their own pair
lngs and starting times.
Over at Baltimore's Hillendale
course. which, by the way, is due for
a beating, one of the largest fields
ever to compete started in the 3d.
hole tourney for the Maryland open
championship. Andy Gibson Of
Bonnie View is defending champ
and one of the favorites. First
money will be S120, which isn't so
much. But it's enough for a couple
of rounds of golf.
Witty Cox of Congressional, who
would be pretty close to a standout
were he entered in the tourney. Is
In New York. But AL Houghton and
Leo Walper, two of Washington's
top-scorlng pros, looked like the
men TO lick as the championship
started today over the short and
tricky Hillendale course. Always
with the chance, too. that Cliff Spen-
cer who won in 1887, might get his
putter working, and win again. Or
| that George Diffenbaugh, who played
Hillendale in SO few days ago,
might get hot for two rounds, and
pick up all the marbles.
George has been in a good scoring
streak lately. Equipped with a new
set OF clubs the little Kenwood pro
has been playing better than ever.
He never has won a sectional title,
and he wants one. He may be the
man to lick
HOughton Man to Beat.
But you have to take Houghton on
the record The silver-thatched
Bethesda pro has finished no worse
than third in seven straight starts
in the Maryland open And he has
won it four times. Just now he is
betting the ball a long way from
the tee, and he looks like the man
to lick. Al never has been what Id
call hot putter. but he has putting
streaks. If he gets in one Of those
today he can romp in with a couple
OF 69s and sew up the title. For
the boys figure it will take something
better than 140 to win
Hillendale is no tough course.
There are some good shots on it,
but also plenty of what the pros call
birdie holes, or holes where a good
pitch will leave short putt for the
bird. That kind of layout is pie for
Houghton, if his putter happens to
be working. He may not be a hot
shot on long course, but he can
60 to town on those of medium
length. And Hillendale is that kind
Of layout.

Otherwise there is a guarantee te
