Golf Association clubs will be
eligible and October 15-16-17-18
are the dates. The B and D
championship courses will be
closed to all but contestants
during the tournament hours
and there will be no green's fees.
Keith Kallio is behind it. He
is not the most tactful golf
promoter in the business. but he
gets amazing results with his
bulldozer tactics. He has per-
suaded some pretty good golfers
to play in the invitation tourna-
ment and the two sweepstakes
his association has sponsored.
and he guarantees a full house
for the approaching event.
The winning two-man team in
each flight will receive $500 in
merchandise prizes which they
can select from the East Poto-
mac stock. The runner-up team
will receive 5000 in each of the
five flights and there will be $100
for the medalists. The United
States Golf Association has
raised its prize-value maximum
to $3.50, which means there will
be no danger to a players anna
teur standing when he selects
$3.50 in merchandise.
Kallio has 100 teams at SIS
entry fee as a goal. That's 1880,
and in the interest of promoting
golf, the WSGA and their
courses, the Leofflers have guar
anteed the other $1,100. OF
course it's not an out-and-out
gift, as they'll be selling the
merchandise.
Kallio had 115 players at SIS
each in a spring invitation.
Bobby Brownell and Ralph
Bogart played in the qualifying
round and Representative Jack
Westland presented the prizes.
The WSGA had 40 and 43 play
ers at IS each in two Monday
sweepstakes, one on a rainy day.
All members of the WSGA buy
handicap cards at So each. The
handicaps are kept up to date
to the extent that some are
changed before a player holes
out if he has a hot round going.

st. Johns Must Rebuild Line

BY Dick SIoy
(Another in q SerieS.)

AS football camp opened this
week at st. Johns Airlie cam
pus on Military road, everything
was being measured in terms Of
the Superlative-the largest, the
smallest, the toughest. In Coach
Joe Gallagher's six years in
charge of the varsity, the john
nies never faced a more imposing
schedule, never have there been
more boys out for the team and
never were they smaller.
It's a somewhat glum situa-
ton for the defending cham
pionS of the Catholic League,
but compared with the outlook
at the start of practice last year,
the Cadets could be regarded as
Wallowing in prosperity.
A year ago only five letter.
men turned up to face a tough
10-game schedule, but the team
defeated all opponents except
Calvert Hall of Baltimore.
Gallagher passed out letters
to his entire squad of Is when
it won the Catholic title in 1852
and II Of these lettermen have
returned. In addition there are
more than 80 new aspirants,
some of whom have experience
in the Catholic Youth Organiza-
ton. That much looks good. The
rest of the picture is cloudy.
THE backfield seems pretty
well set," Gallagher admits, "but
we're suffering in the line. The
junior varsity had the same
trouble so we can't look for help
there. Line Coach Mush Du-
bofSky can correct the situation
If there's any talent in the new
comerS. but we just don't know.
They're probably the smallest
bunch we've ever had"
The only experienced tackle
is Mark Murtaugh, who weighs
100 and stands 5-foot-101a. John
Frazier, a rangy sophomore. is
expected to help out but also may
be used at end. The guard posi-
tions should be filed by Jim
"Bubba" Healy and Bob Gailliot,
lettermen.
Scott Teunis has been moved
from end to center and will be
spelled by George Neitzey, a
third-stringer last year. The end
spots are the best prepared with
Dave Shannon, AL Burch and
Dick Dent on hand.
The backf1eld will give CAL
lagher the least worry as long as
he has Quarterback Bob Ru-
sevlyan. Rusevlyan. a 5-foot-11,
160-pounder who was a shoo-in
for All-Catholic honors in 1852,
will not be called on to supply as
much of the running attack.
He's a dangerous runner and
we experimental with him at
halfback some last year." Gal
lagher says. But he's got to
play defense too, and we can't
have him firing out in mid
season. Our other backs are
almost as fast as last years so
we'll keep Rusevlyan at quar-
ter"
