By WALTER McCALLUM.

Bobby BroWnell the tall Manor
Country Club blond, will be a tough
nut to crack in the coming Mid
die Atlantic championship at Hot
Springs. Bobby has served notice
that he is strictly on his stick by
winning with Hank Russell of Mi
ami as his partner the Bannock-
burn Golf and Country Club best
ball golf tourney.
Browneu sank a tough 18-foot
putt on the 18th green at Bannock-
burn yesterday to win the final
match against Benno and Pat JAMS
sen of Charlottesville. Va. 1t put
the final seal of excellence on the
game of the young Manor star, and
marked the start of his comeback
from a broken leg last year which
kept him out of competitive golf
BroWnell won, and 3, bringing to
a close the best in the young series
of best ball Journeys held by those
enthusiastic Bannockburn folks
Bobhv's own score for those IS holes
was even par. Russell helped plenty
but Bobby was the star. He'll be a
rough hombre in the tourney at Hot
Springs, and can win.
