The title flight in the club
championship at Bethesda Coun-
try Club is so tough to crack that
it appears Joe LaSalle, 1850 and
81 winner, will not make it with
a 36-houe qualifying score of

Because of yesterdays rain the
members have until Wednesday
night to complete Qualifying.
This is a break for Tom Man

queen of the speedboat world to-
day was the Slo-Mo-Shun w,
which romped to her third gold
cup triumph in four years yes
terday and wrote a new speed
record for the 90-mile grind.
She won all three heats and
her average time for the COM
plete distance was 92.6l3 miles
per hour. The previous best was
1925 m.p.h., set when Slo- Mo-
Shun w won her first gold cup
in 1850. She won again in 1852
after her newer sister, the Slo-
Mo-Shun V, took the cup in
1851.
Desperately trying to make a
race of it, the Gale II finished
second and the heavy. dual

third. Five Detroit boats started
against the Seattle-owned cup

craft were left running at the
finish.

Miss Great Lakes got only to
the first turn in the first heat
before she conked out. Such

then failed to show for the third

had the worst of it in a 4-foot
putt on the 18th hole yesterday
a shot that also was seen on
televiSion. Law son Little, doing
the commentary at the time with
somebody named Tom Dugg an,
who apparently never had seen
q golf tournament, said over the
air that Worshaw had a rotten
break on his tee shot, the ball
hitting a hard spot on the green
and bouncing over.
WorSham Chips Back.
Worsham Clipped back about
4 feet away. He gently Stroked
the putt and it rolled truly for
the hole. then trickled around
the brim, making a three-quar-
ter circle, and stayed out. Lew
said he hit the putt just like he
wanted.
Harper had made virtually the
same putt on the 18th green to
keep from 3-putting.
A strange angle to the match
less finish was that Harper's
second shot on the final hole
almost was as good as Wor-
sham's. Chandler was 8 under
par coming to the last hole and
Worsham was playing the 18th
7 under par at the time.
Harper Is Inches Short.
Harper'S shot. slightly longer
than Worsham'S, hit short Of the
pin, toc:l up slightly and rolled
true for the cup, only to die
about 10 inches short. After
Al BesSelink barely missed a 90
footer that would have made
Harper sink to beat him, Chan
dler carefully tapped in his short
birdie putt that put him 9 under
par. All this was on televiSion,
WorSham, meanwhile, had
birdied the 18th with a 6-foot
putt and his threesome was wait
ing for Harper'S threesome to
clear the green. Lev knew what
Harper had done, and what he
had to do.
Harper said it was the third
tournament he had lost by a
stroke, the Tucson Open to Tom
my Bolt and the Tournament of
Champions to Besselink. He COL
lected $4,000 for second but told
the Associated Press he needed
the title more than the money.
Harper. who consistently claims
that he never gets a break and
that other people always have
all the luck, must be in good
voice on that subject today.
Patty Berg finally won the
women'S pro division of the Tam
