Victory al Belle Haven
Shows Worsham Set
For Open Golf Test
By MerreII WhittIesev

The United States Golf Associa-
ton allotted the Middle Atlantic
section five places to the National
Open championship in today's sec.
tional qualifying rounds at Burn
ing Tree, but even Chandler Har-
per. one Of the leading money win
ners on the winter tour, agrees more
than likely 1t will be 40 players for
I places than Il for S.
Chandler Joined the concede-to-
Lew brigade yesterday at
Belle Haven as he watched Worsham
play the Alexandria course in So
strokes, 4 under par. and pair with
Baltimores Andy Gibson to win an
exhibition from Harper and John
O'Donnell / up.
The match was the feature on q
crowded, rain-marred tournament
card that included:
Spencer Overton and Charlie
Bassler of the Rolling Road Club
In Catonsville drub the favored
tandem from Indian Spring, Roger
Peacock and Volney Burnett, 6 and
4, in the finals of the Maryland
two-man team championship.
Schoolboy Golf Postponed.
Postponement moves the Scholastic
golf championship semif1nals to
Wednesday, June IL at Manor Club
at o'clock and the final June 13,
same time. An early morning down.
pour forced Frapk Emmet to re-
schedule the matches. Examina-
tions force. To-day delay. Semi
final pairings call for Bubby Wor-
sham Of Bethesda to meet Dick
Sturges Of Coolidge and Joe Sullivan
of Bethesda to meet Alan Weis-
berg of Dewitt.
Lew Worsham needed q par on
the 18th to break the competitive
course record at Belle Haven but he
overshot the green on the tough,
finishing par and had to be
satisfied with tying the mark for
the third time. Gibson came
through with par that preserved a
1-up lead and gave the winner best
ball 66.
Harper. the Portsmouth, Va, pro
who figures to grab berth to the
Open today, had trouble with his
short game and was seven shots
back of Worsham with a IS. O'Don-
nell had 72 and Gibson rs. Despite
a bad break in the weather, Belle
Haven oficials expect to realize
more than $500 from the match,
which will help foot the bill for the
Open qualiflers.

Other Open Test Threats.
Worsham, who officially shifted to
Congressional as pro on Saturday
hopes to leave his former club
Burning Tree, with fond memories
Long-hitting Lew figures it will take
a two-round total of 145 to qualify
today, and he should play that
course in 145 on one leg.
Harper is a heavy favorite, and
the fact that Bobby Cruickshank
has twice been up for practice
rounds means Bobby wants another
crack at the title that barely evaded
him more than once. Outside OF
the aforementioned trio, Ralph
Beach and Gibson of the Baltimore
delegation, Jack Isaacs and ODon-
nell from Virginia and Cliff Spencer
and hitting Frank Stiedle,
locally, are strong threats among
the IS pros and six amateurs to win
one Of the i've berths.
II Washington golfers were al
lowed to vote on the out-of-town
golfer who has given them the most
trouble for the past decade it prob
ably would be unanimous-Spencer
Overton.
The bespectacled inventor from
Baltimore was too much for the
Peacock-Burnett combine in the
four-ban finals as Peacock's anna
teur career ended on q sour note
The local amateurs were 7 over
par for IA holes on their best ball
score, Overton and Bassler were one
under.
Overton's Game Strong.
Overton won three of the first
five holes with pars and the Balti-
moreans turned the first nine 4 UP.
Bassler, a Marine veteran of the
Okinawa and Peleliu campaigns,
dropped putt for birdie deuce on
the 18th to make it up and 5, and
had another birdie putt on the next
hole when Peacock and Burnett,
who were putting bogey IS, conceded
The victory was Overtons third
In the five years of the State two
man team championship, and on an
other occasion he made the finals.

Along The Cape Fear

CONFUSING FOREST - 1t looks
as though we'll never get to the
end in our unraveling of the Cape
Fear legend of Jenny Lind.
Like a long line of Irvine it leads
us on and on through a confusing
forest of possibilities and per
chances, and each time we think
we've come to the end we find that
omeone has knotted another length
onto it.
If you'll recall, we started out on
the Cape F%ear-Jenny Lind tran
some time ago. We asserted that
she did come to Wilmington and
that she did sing for the Cape Fear
folks.
But after a truitless search for
corroborating evidence we MADE
= complete turn-about and denied
that she ever set foot in the
city limits.
Then last week the three Moore
sisters gave us the copy OF James

found what we thought was the
