Browne|| and Bogart
Favored in Best Ball
Golf at Belle Haven

Qualifying in the third annual
Belle Haven two-man team invi-
tation golf tournament continues
today over the Alexandria course
and it apparently will take a best
ball score of par or better to make
the championship flight, which
means that only two teams who
selected yesterday to qualify will
be in the running.
Although only few of 70-odd
teams played yesterday. the scores
ran slightly higher than expected.
The host club hopes, Comdr.
Frank Heyer and Frank Woolley,
shot a 3-under par Ct, a score
tied by the 1949 runnerup team,
Hank Robson and Ernie Garlem.
They were the only teams par or
better.
Although they've lost in the
early rounds two straight years,
Bobby Brownell and Ralph Bogart
still appear the team to beat. They
play today and figure to post a
best ball in the middle COS. Like
all courses, Belle Haven has suf-
fered from the heat and is playing
hard and fast. but the committee
has tucked some of the pins in
tight places in an effort to reduce
the Sub-par blasts.
Col. Jimmy Wilson and Jim
Gardner, winners the last two
years and medalists once, were
to defend when Gardner.
the newly crowned Pennsylvania
champion, wired his
withdrawal. However, Wilson OBJ
tained a good golfer for a partner
in Bob Chandler, who with Mike
Jankowski lost to Wilson and
Gardner in the final last year.
T. j. Palmer. unattached, and
F. Hussey of New Bern, N. C..
