Harper will forego a title de-
fense in the $4,000 CLOSED"
State Open and play for bigger
dough in the $4,000 tournament
at Ardmore. Okla. where Waco
Turner pays SIS for brides.
Thus the Virginia Open again
will be for the championship be-
tween John ODonnell of Nor
folk and Jack Isaacs of Langley
Field. At least that's what the
Maryland and District pros call
it, inaSmuch as they are shut
out by the provision that a con-
teStant must be a resident OF
Virginia, or a member of a club
located in the State.
Isaacs,. O'Donnell, Harold Oat-
man and the others play in the
Maryland and District Opens. but
they close the Old Dominion
tournament to outsiders. The
Virginia boys claim they raise
$4,000 and have a right to keep
it among themselves. The Mary
land and District Opens are
played for less than half that
amount.
First prize in the four day, To-
hole tournament at the IngleSide
Club at Staunton will be $500.
Harper may be excused for pass
ing this up, as Chandler has
played the best golf of his life

make that much by finishing
10th at Ardmore. He already
has won one $4,000 tournament.

also was second in one that paid

Isaacs and O'Donnell, winners
of both the Maryland and Vir-
ginia Opens, may have to watch
AL Smith, the little guy from
Danville, who has a better record
on the big circuit than either
Isaacs or ODonnell. There also
is a fairly strong amateur dele
cation, including Wynsol Spen-
Ger, George Fulton and Peewee
Harris going to Staunton. But

nell figures to win. BY shutting
out the out-of-State pros, they
make fairly sure of that.

Golf Race Tightened
As KenWood Women
Swamp Army Navy

The first team championship
of the Women's District Golf
Association remains in status
quo until next Tuesdays match
between Kenwood and Chevy
Chase, the two top teams, at
Washington Golf and Country
Club is awaited. Meanwhile. the
second and third teams are
nearing the playoffs and the first
team play has one combination
with a perfect record.

by holding Chevy Chase to a
51a-312 triumph yesterday at
Congressional, while Kenwood
swamped Army Navy, 812-l2.
and moved within a half point
of Chevy Chase.
In addition to their match
with each other. KenWood must
play Congressional and Manor,
while Chevy Chase has Wood
mont and Washington remain
ing. Kenwood appears to have
the easier schedule left, although
Woodmont has announced it will
have one or two absenteeS for
the Chevy Chase match because
of players going out of town.
Argyle Close to Title.
In the second team play, the
first division is a four-team race,
but Argyle, led by District Cham
pion Betty CARRIER, virtually has
clinched the second division title
for the second straight year. With
only one match remaining, Ar
gyle has a six-point edge on
Bethesda and could gain the
playoffs by scoring 3l2 OF a pos
sible nine points next week, even
if Bethesda sweeps nine.
Bethesda has 31l2-point lead
in the first division Of the third
teams with only one match re-
manning, while Army Navy and
Columbia are 1-2 in the second
division standings among the
third teams.
The only tandem with a per-
feet record in first team play
is Woodmont's third bracket OF
Mrs. Morton kaufman and Mrs.
Henry Lebovitz. They have won
all three points in Woodmont's
three outings. The Chevy Chase
first bracket Of Mrs. E. c. Ferri-
day and Mrs. Richard johnson
has won 812 of possible nine.
KenwOOd Stars Sparkle.
Kenwood has used different
combinations, but has three in
dividuals who have figured in
812 of nine possible points-Mrs.

NeWSubstitutionR Rule
Dooms T-Formation,
Jim Tatum Asserts
By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, May 6.-Mary-
lands Jim Tatum. here to look
into television possibilities for his
football team next fall, took time
out to predict the doom Of the
T-formation if colleges decide
to stick to the limited substitu-
ton rule.
Football is In Tor a lot of wild
scoring games, what with the
pressure taken of defense, he
said. He added that. with the
platoon system eliminated. many
teams will go back to the single
wing formation.
They'll have to-" he said, but
Tatum, an exponent of the split
T. will wait and see how things
go. IF the rule stays in," he
said, II figure I'll have to do
some changing myself.
Here's the way it is" Big
Jim added. Under this rule
where we can't use special de-
fensive and offensive units, we're
going to have to pick out line
men for their offensive ability.
The reason for that is that if
you don't get a play started-and
you can only if you have the
blocking up front-then you're
not going anywhere anyhow.
LAS for backs and ends, We'll
have to pick them for their de-
fensive ability. Why? Well, let
one of them make one mistake
"a pass in the fiat or an i'm
portant missed tackle-and the
other side has a touchdown.
T-backfields are picked for
specialized offensive ability-the
T-quarterback especially. Teams
may find out they can't take
these risks so they'll drift back
to the solid old single wing"
Tatum ended spring practice
at College Park last week end
and afterward said he was
pleased with the results.

ATHENS.-The blue Med1-
terranean, soft and billowy cra-
die of 5000 years of civilization
and scene of many major bat
ties for world power. is coming
into a new historic period.
The Americans have moved
in and rapidly are becoming
the dominant force-the latest
in a long series Of Mediterra-
mean masters reaching back
beyond Roman times.
United States mastery in the
Mediterranean is shared with
- Britain, which has a fleet there,
and controls three important
island points-Gibraltar and
Cyprus on either end, and
Malta near the middle. But
security of the sea, and espe-
cially the unity of the import
ant states bordering it, depends
largely on the presence of
American sea and air power.
On the bottom of this busy
sea, in successive layers of his
toric mud, lie the fleets of pre-
vious powers which have risen,
dominated it and fallen-Car-
thage, Rome, Venice, Turkey.
There lie also many a British
ship, especially from the last
World War.
Another War?
So far, no American ship Of
Importance has Joined the
ghostly navy. But another
war, with America and Russia
as the major antagonists,
might bring another story. For
this great sea reaches farther
into the heartland of the great
Eurasian continent than any
other body of water. Stem
ming from the gray Atlantic,
it opens an irregular, island
dotted route $500 miles east
ward and northward, far south
of but parallel to the line along
which Eastern and Western
armies would march toward
battle in Europe.
For the first 1000 miles Of
this great reach, the sea is
open to Western navies, with
friendly or Allied powers all
along the northern shores ex-
cept for one tiny satellite,
Albania, and with friendly or
ineffective peoples along most
of the African shoreline.
It provides a protected sup
ply line right through the
Dardanelles to the shores of
the Black Sea, a sea domi-
mated now by Russia, but
which in event of war might
be the scene of a water-borne
invasion of the great Soviet
dictatorship.
For generations Russia has
been trying to push south
ward to the Mediterranean,
and successive Mediterranean
powers have fought her back.
Now the task rests largely on
American ships and planes.
American aid has been so
successful that the critical
eastern end of the ages-old
battle pond has been made
secure-its guardians say
and the middle area is being
steadily shored up. The west

E Street Bridge
Strong support for the pro-
posed E street bridge across
the Potomac has come from
the Arlington County Board.
Involved here is not only a
fight of Arlington and the
District against Federal plan
ners (who don't want an
other bridge throwing traffic
into downtown). There is a
legal question involving the
Theodore Roosevelt Memorial
Association, which gave
Roosevelt Island to the Fed
eraI Government as a memo
rial to T. r., to be an un-
touched woodland refuge. The
new bridge would cross the
island. Interior Department
lawyers have said the bridge
cannot cross the island unless
the association is to be COM
pensated.
In the last analysis, Con-
gress and perhaps even the
President will have to make
the decision.
Arlington and the District
have formidable opposition in
this one. Harland Bartholo-
meW, newly appointed chair
man of the Natiopal Capital
Planning Commission, a vet
eran and nationally known
planner. is opposed to it. He,
along with Interior Secretary
Mckay, may well determine
the White House attitude.
Fowler to Retire?
L'affaire Fowler erupted
mildly last week on two fronts.
Senator Case, chairman of
the Senate District Commit
tee,, wrote the Commissioners
a mild criticism of their fall
ure to follow the recommended
tions of the congressional
conferees on the District budg-
ct that Budget Officer Walter
Fowler report directly to the
Commissioners instead of to
General Administration Direc-
tor Schuyler Lowe.
From his summer home in
the Thousand Islands. disap-
pointed Mr.. Fowler wrote the
city heads along roughly the
same line. The line was that,
although the recommendation
was not mandatory, most Fed
eral agencies follow such con-
gresSional hints.
All that remains to complete
the story are Mr.. Fowler'S fu-
ture plans-undisclosed in his
letter. Many officials feel he
will ask retirement. In any
event you can expect to see his
name mentioned for District
Commissioner again when the
present term of Democrat
Renah Camalier expires a
little less than two years hence.
