Fiery Muny Links Crown Scrap
Promised by New Stars Here;
Baltimore Nips D. C.. Juniors

things, TO win the Manor Country
Club invitation tourney from a
strong field and he did A good job
in other club invitation affairs,
although the Manor event was his
lone major victory over private
course For years he was the top
man around the public layouts and
always a competitor to be feared.
A steady linksman. never upset by
any untoward turn in the tide Of
battle, Burrows was man who
always gave his best.
Possibly the procession has passed
Ted nowadays. For he Is 10 years
older than the days when he was at
his peak and a new crop of public
links boys has sprung up. 1t will be
interesting watching him 60 against
some Of the new crop. And not the
least Of these, Doerer says, will be
Keith Kallio, who holds a local
weight-lifting record. Keith, ac-
cording to Tommy, Is fellow who
can crack that ball long way and
has future as golfer.
All in all, Doerer predicts a red
hot championship. incidentally, the
tourney conflicts in dates with the
Grosner pro-amateur affair at
Manor. But that will have little
effect on the municipal linksmen.
Only one or two of them would be
likely to play at Manor.
Washington Juniors Beaten.
! Husky Joe Barse, Columbia Coun-
try Club Junior champ. is kicking
himself all over the lot today be-
cause he missed a 5-foot putt on
the 18th green at Bonnie View yes
terday. Joe captained the Wash.
/ ington junior links team which took
an 8-to-7 licking from Baltimore
juniors yesterday over the Balti.
more public course.
Joe blames only himself. for had
he made the putt it would have
tossed the match into a 7I2-to-71z
tie. AS 1t was, the Baltimore lads
won by a single point, their first
victory in the three-year history Of
the matches arranged by the Mary
lard State Golf Association.
Washington did not have its
strongest possible junior team. Tom
Brandon. jr.. the District Junior
champ, wasn't present. Nor were
Alton and Carroll Willett. the Be-
thesda boys who know how to play
considerable golf. But that doesn't
detract from the Baltimore victory
They won, and that's all there is
/ to it.
/ Eddie Johnston. the Middle At
lantic junior champ. playing for Bal
timore, had the best score Of the
day, "a. followed by Herb Wag-
ner's IS. Playing on the Washing
ton team were Barse. Art Myers, Bill
Brownrigg, Billy Grimm. Bill Cas-
sedy, Norman and Logan Manders.
Charlie Price, Buster Mrstik and
Jim Brantley.
Bogart Leaves for Omaha.
Towering Ralph Bogart. the Dis
trict amateur champ, was to leave
town today for the scene of the ma
tional championship at Omaha,
starting Monday. Ralph will play
his qualifying rounds in the COM
pany of two youngsters unknown to
links fame in the East. They are
Lloyd Ramsey of Lexington, KY,
and Glenn Oatman of Kansas City.
They must be good golfers to
qualify for the national, but their
names are not known In the East.
Probably Ralph Is in the same boat
in the Middle West. Another man
known to local golfers Of Is years
ago will play in the tourney. He is
Karl F. Kellerman. who was one OF
Columbia's top amateurs q decade
and half ago.
Bogart will make the trip without
any company from Washington, al-
though he'll run into Otto Greiner
and Eddie Johnston of Baltimore at
Omaha. Ralph was the lone quali-
fer from the Capital. He can do all
right at Omaha, for lately the tall
Chevy Chase youngster has been
playing very well. But in the light
of the nationally ranked stars who
will gather at Omaha Ralph's star
is somewhat dim.
He will be one of the dark horses
who can shine briefly for a moment.
