DETROIT, Sept. 9.-Maj Wallace
Wade, never overly optimistic, says
his Western Army All-Stars def
nitely are not a great team, but
most observers believe they are good
enough to whip the Detroit Lions
tonight and seize the edge in the
charity series with National Foot
ball League clubs.
Wade said he would stick pretty
much to the lineup that started

the Chicago Cardinals, which
matched an earlier defeat to the
Washington Redskins at Los An
geles, and then added:
This isn't great team. you

Nv WALTER McCALLUM.

One of the smallest-and far from
the classiest-fields in the tourna-
ment's history started today over the
lengthy Congressional Country Club
course in the medal round OF the
District amateur championship.
Curtailed by wartime restrictions,
and with two of the best OF the local
simon pures out of competition and
in Federal service the champion
ship probably will be the last Dis
trict title tourney for the duration
of the war, for even If tournaments
are scheduled next year (Which Is
unlikely restrictions In the form
of gasoline rationing will seriously
cut the fields.
The man who wins the title Fri
day afternoon probably will be the
District champ for the duration of
the war, Just as Ed Eynon remained
the District champ throughout the
last war, when the District Golf As
sociation cancelled it's title affairs.
Bogart- -Brownell Missing.
A championship tourney these
days hardly seems the same without
the dominating figure of Ralph
Bogart around. The Man O'War of
local amateur golf is in Georgia
running through his pre-flight
training and is not around to defend
the crown he has won for the past
three years. Neither is Bobby
Brownell. who is with the FBI
Philadelphia Office. Either of these
lads might make a runaway OF the
District title tourney.
Not since the DGA changed its
championship back to match play
after series of disillusioning ex-
periences at the rigorous form OF
medal play has the field been as
small as that which started at Con-
gressional today, where post entries
were being taken up to teeing OF
time at l pm.
But even though the Distric
championship this year won't be
either in class or scoring, up to thu
standard of other years, 1t will brint
out the best man among the simon
pures around town this first wa
year. The amazing part of 1t all i
that although Washington is one o
the hottest golf towns in the Nation
in recent years it has not been abl
to develop either among the men o
! the women competitor goot
enough to rank nationally. Drop one
really topnotch amateur in thi
neighborhood and he'd sweep tn
Journeys as George Voigt used to dc
And George rated nationally.
Harold Gordon, young George
town student, is the victor in on
