They will oppose Witty Cox, Mary
land and Washington open champ,
and Fred Mcleod, former national
tltleholder, at 2 pm. in a match to
raise money to purchase a mobile
canteen for use of the armed forces.

charge OF the affair. And don't bet
the roll on Byrd and Cruickshank to
win. Cox and Mcleod might sur
prise. Witty is very much in the
groove nowadays and Freddie won't
be any lost ball over the relatively
short Belle Haven course.
