District Amateur Puts
Browne||, Bogart and
Wild in Golf Spotlight

Bobby Brownell, Ralph Bogart
and Claude Wild probably will see
a lot of each other this week.
They are scheduled to qualify
together tomorrow in the District
Amateur golf championship at
Indian Spring, and unless all three
are in the same bracket, two of
them should reach the final.
Fifty-three players are entered
and post entries probably will
boost the field to so. Tomorrow
qualifying round will be followed
by two rounds of match play on
both Wednesday and Thursday
and the 36-hole final on Friday
Brownell has won the title six
straight years and seven times in
seven tries. Bogart is a three
time champion. Wild came close
to swapping Brownell's streak last
year. taking him 10 holes in a.
Semifinal at Wild'S home WASH
ington Club.
Bob Morris, Billy Shea and Bob
Chandler are capable of making
trouble, and Indian Springs club
championship finalists, Eddie Ault
and Volney Burnett. could be
tough. A number of the junior
stars are entered, but Henry Ker-
foot, jr., a f1nalist last year at II,
is not among them.
