to add to the two already announced
will come July at Columbia where
the best of the Juniors will gather to
try for the crown won last year by
lanky Otto Greiner OF Baltimore, to-
day favorite to win the Mid-Atlan-
tic crown over at Baltimore.
Secretary Bill Bart of the Middle
Atlantic Association announced the
Junior tourney over the 36-hole route

has reached his majority. The tour
ney is open to youngsters who have
not reached the age of 81.
Ralph Bogart, the District champ;
Skinker, George O. Vass, jr., and

Over at Baltimore, where for the
first time in around two decades a
Washington man has failed to reach
the seminal in the Middle Atlantic
championship, Greiner was a ia
| vorlte today to recapture the title he
won at Charlottesville in 1898.
Greiner happens to be red-hot just
now. He put together a 3-under-p
81 yesterday to lick Billy Shea in the
second round of the tourney at Hill
endale, ending the match by holing
a 60-yard pitch shot on the fifteenth
hole for an eagle deuce. He had
previously sent George F. Miller Of
Columbia to the sidelines in the first
round with a level PAL 70.
Favored to reach the final with
Greiner was Medalist Spencer Over
ton, the Rolling Road veteran. Grei-
ner met Robert E. Jones of Hillen-
dale in one semifinal today, while
Overton clashed with DR.. Ed Slime
bert of Terra Mariae Buddy Shar-
key, George Miller ana Earle Skin
ker of Washington ali were licked
in the first round yesterday, while
Shea and Billy Dettweiler won.
But in the afternoon the two
remaining Washington lads vanish
ed. It's a sad commentary on WASH
ington amateur golf The boys
usually have been able to hold their
own against any opposition from
Baltimore.
Hufty Needs 72 to Win.
Johnny Brawner, the Trolley
Wire" OF Chevy Chase. seemed three
days ago to have the club champion
ship in the bag. But it isn't so
certain now. Defending Champion
Page Hufty, spurred by the 293
score registered by Brawner in the
72-hole tourney, has come with a
rush and needs a 70 to win the
title A 70 will tie. Page opened
the defense of his title with IS,
but his last two rounds have been
70 and 73 for 54-hole total of 200.
Another 70 will win for him. But
he has to get it under pressure.
1t can be done, but it will be tough.
He may play his last round today.
Meanwhile, former Champion Ralph
Quinter, who opened with a IL,
shot up to 80 in his second round
and has tough road to go to catch
Brawner-and perhaps Hufty.
Chevy Chase women put on a
blind bogey tourney yesterday, won
by Louise Claytor with a card of
90-2-88.
