CHICAGO, Aug. 22-Wiford
Wehrle. the blond Racine, Wis,
stylist, possessed the Davis Memorial
Trophy and 500 war bond today
plus his first major golf title as
champion Of the Chicago National
Amateur tournament.
Wehrle, a seasoned veteran who
has finished near the top Of many
amateur tournaments the last four
years, defeated the Pittsburgh steel
worker, little Steve Kovach, 4 and 3,
yesterday in the final at Knollwood
Country Club.
Wehrle was hard pressed most OF
the way, however, and 1t wasn't until
the afternoon round that he took the
advantage for keeps as KoVadh's
putter and short iron game Tell
apart.
The Racine star picked up on the
seventh hole to 90 one down during
the morning and was unable to pull
up to anything better than even
terms until the twenty fifth, when
Kovach lost the hole with bogey.
From there until the finish on the
thirty-third, Wehrle shaved two
strokes of par, while Kovach slipped
one over.

Redskins Still Raced

Visiting Grid Writers
Soy Heft, Experience
Will Give Pros Edge
BY a Staff Correspondent of Tn. Star.

SAN DIEGO, Calf. Aug. 22.-Al-
though still far from top form. the
Redskins were slated to take it
easy today in tapering off for their
annual intrasouad party tomorrow
at Balboa Stadium.
Coach Ray Flaherty is not at all
satisfied with his men. Too slow and
sluggish to satisfy his keen sense of
precision and with the timing of
plays so ragged as to be almost tat
tered. they'll have to show much
improvement to beat the Army.
Next week, however, with the ALL
Army game staring them In the
face. he believes the boys will shake
of their lethargy and begin to show
something approximati ting their true
form.
Sluggish Before Visitors.
The Tribe donned its Sunday-go-
to-meeting war feathers yesterday
before group of visiting news
papermen and managed to look i'm
pressive for the better part of an
hours drill. From Los Angeles, the
scribes were the clubs guests at
luncheon and later watched the
afternoon workout.
They plainly expected something
better than they saw because Fla
herty, easing up a bit after Thurs
days tough scrimmage, didn't drive
the squad and the boys made no
effort to put on show.
They certainly aren't extending
themselves" one scribe remarked.
IF this is the way all pro football
teams train, l wouldn't mind play
ing myself"
Favored Over Army Team.
BY and large, however, the visitors
were impressed sufficiently to in
stall the Redskins a slight favorite
over Maj. Wallace Wades hand
picked minions. The pros, they de-
cided, have too much heft and will
have too much experience for the
soldiers.
AS one of them explained it.
Wade has had to spend a lot of
valuable time wedding out his squad.
While the Redskins have been re-
hearsing their plays and getting ac-
customed to the habits of one an
other, Wades boys have been shunt-
ed back and forth until they don't
know whether they're going or COM
ing.
Wade is handicapped by too
much material"
