FIRST BASEMEN
G|enbrook to Keep Its Is Holes,
Leo Bioqetti Wins Pro Sweeps

The Glenbrook course which
the pros played yesterday in the
final Middle Atlantic PGA pro-
amateur tournament of the sea-
son will remain an 18-hole course
(par 64) for several seasons, ac-
cording to Roger Peacock, the
host pro.
Glenbrook is the old Woodmont
course. When the property was
purchased for the National Insti-
ltutes of Health by the Federal
Government, part of it was turned
over to the Maryland-National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, and the golf course was
made public.
A number of changes in the
course were necessary because of
the tremendous building program.
The acreage was greatly reduced,
but Glenbrook still has room for
18 holes by making the back nine
"a par 30. with seven par IS and
two par As.
Will Be Improved in Winter.
Peacock said the commission
has been told by Government Of
ficials that no further building is
contemplated in the immediate
future. So this winter a number
of improvements will be made to
the layout.
The par of 64 is not an easy
one, because 27 pros played in
the sweepstakes yesterday and
only Leo Biagetti equaled par and
he was low by two strokes. Bia-
getti is a 25-year-old pro from
Sandusky, Ohio, who remained in
this section to teach at the Mount
Pleasant Club in Baltimore after
playing in the Eastern Open and

vMI's Varied Attack
Promises Stern Test
For GW's Defense
By GEORGE Huber

The George Washington defen-

work in stopping Virginia Tech
last Saturday has another busy
game cut out for 1t Friday night
when the Colonials play Their
Homecoming at Griffith Stadium
against Virginia Military.
The power of the Keydet often

game last week when it put across
two touchdowns against Virginia
In earlier games against Wander

been scored upon.
Wasn't Exaggerating.
Among other things, VMI has

Colonial defenses may be helped
this week by the return Of Tackle
Tom FlyZik, who was unable 10
make last weeks trip to Blacks
burg for the VPI game. He worked
out yesterday and CIV coaches are
hopeful his banged-up knee will
improve sufficiently for him to
play Friday night.
On the doubtful list is Halfback
Len Ciemniecki, whose long
touchdown runs sparked GW's first
two victories. He was in only a
short time against Virginia two
weeks ago because of bruised
hip, and although he was able
to gain IS yards in 13 tries
against VPI last week, he came
away with a number Of minor
