BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

ms 0rSC name, III the CurTenC COns necticut amateur golf tournament at the Country Club of Waterbury. Having played most of his golf at East Mountain, the municipality owned course where the preferred lie is king for a day, that is, every day, Vic was not figured to go to far in @ state tournament, against such players as Bobby Walsh of Bridgeport, Pete Burke of Nauga- tuck, Jack Strew from his own course, Bill Hughes of Wethersfield, Bill Goss, Jr., and Ned Farley of Waterbury, yet he has reached the quarter-final round of the >tourna- ment, while the aforementioned young gentlemen golfers are now, what is technically tagged by equine experts as "also-rans".
 Squeezed in
 And another thing, zenmons had shaky qualifying round with a 79- 8O-159 to get in the first flight, and very nearly had to play of with four other 16O shooters, as that f1g- ure was the limit for the champions ship division. However, once match play started he moved ahead nicely, polishing of Ned Farley of Water- bury yesterday on the 18th hole, winning three previous matches by fairly close margins, but not as close as that one, for Farley had him four down going to hole eleven. On the 17th it looked like Farley again, but young MT. z made re- covery shot that was scandal to the jaybirds" and did the same thing on his second poke on the 18th, after a punk drive, won the hole, went to the first tee again, pared the hole and won the match as Ned took boogey fiveN on the four stroke layout from tee to cup
 Today, ZemmonS was paired with Eddie Chicowski of Hop Brook, and carries with him the hopes of the Waterbury group entered at the start of the meet.
 Champ Out
 Alpheus Winter, Jr., of the Brook lawn club, Bridgeport, won an im- portant match yesterday when he eliminated the defending titlehold- CT, Robert J. Walsh, known to his intimates as "Knohby" and the win- ner left no doubt of the issue, 4 and 3 finale that surprised even the Park City writers who know of the red-hot rivalry between the public links player and the society links man from McLevyville.
 The progl ess of Dom Soccoli of Wethersfield has been pleasant to his many friends, as the veteran golfer, bowler and pocket billiard star knocked of the classy Lou Lostoski of Pequabuck yesterday to gain session with the co-medalist and "man to beat" from here in husky Frank Staszowski of Green Woods, which is up Winsted way.
