It appears that the other
teams in the new Maryland BIZ
County League are leaving it up

B-CC undoubtedly accepts the

as the weeks go by.
Blair is rolling with four

Maryland Golf Group
Makes Big Revisions
In Two Top Journeys
BY MerrelI WhittIesey

The Maryland State Golf As
sociation made drastic changes
in two of its major tournaments
the team championship and
the four-ball event--at the an
nual election meeting last night
in Baltimore.
The 1854 team play in which
most of the member clubs will
enter 12-man teams, will be
played on a home-and-h home
basis with six players from each
club at one course and six play
ing at the other.
After each match a phone call
will be made from one club to
the other. and If the score is
tied the pro and the No. l anna
teur from each club will meet
the other clubs top combination
in a quick-death playoff to break
the tie.
Surprise Move.
Last years final between Con-
gressional and Rolling Road was
played under this system but
proved to be unpopular and it
was a surprise that the member
clubs voted II to 5 for the split
matches. The principal objec-
ton to the old method was that
the home team won 80 per cent
of the time. and that it was not
a true championship for that
reason.
The neutral course plan was
discussed, but was not given
serious consideration because
few clubs in this area can play
host to "a golfers from other
clubs on a Sunday afternoon
without inconveniencing tn e
membership.
The four ball, or two-man
team championship. was changed
to a 36-hole Scotch fourSome
medal play event. with the first
round September IL in Wash
ington and the second the fol-
lowing day in Baltimore. The
teams with the lowest alternate
stroke score for two rounds will
win.
Heretofore. the four ball
championship has been at match
play extending over several week
ends in the fall. Eddie Ault
and George Thornton of Indian
Spring won the title last year.
Each club can enter two tan
demS.
Handicap System Continued.
The association voted unani-
mously to continue using the
current handicap system instead
of the basic. The latter sup
posedly is required by the Mid
die Atlantic PGA for pro-ama-
teurs, but use Of basic handicaps
has not been enforced by the
pros.
The Nominating Committees
slate of officers for 1854 was ap-
proved unanimously. as is the
custom of the association David
H. Halle of Baltimore's Sub
urban Club was elected presi-
dent, succeeding Donald E.
DeVeau of Chevy Chase.
Vice presidents elected, in the
order that they will move up to
the presidency, were: Karl w.
Corby, jr.. of Columbia; Alex
M. Knapp of Elkridge. who also
is treasurer; Thomas G. Carney
of Manor. George A. Tormey of
c. C. of Maryland, Tom K. Wheel
er of Congressional, L. Baldwin
Passano of Rolling Road and
Ralph Bogart. the defending
champion and f1ve-time State
amateur champion from Chevy
Chase. Emmet Gary of Hillen-
dale and Albert E. Steinem of
Woodmont were reelected sec
retary and general counsel, both
appointments of long standing.

Carroll SET 10 Roll
After Taking Big One
From Strong Cadets
By Bob Honson
CATHOLIC LEAGUE STANDING

Before the Carroll High bas-
ketbau season started Coach Bob
Dwyer was saying that he
thought the boys on the team
might cause some trouble, but
they needed to win one good
game and then they might roll.
The Lions put in that good
game last night as they de-
feated a highly regarded st.
Johns team, 1892. in the Sec
ond half of a double header at
Carroll. In the first game, Priory
bounced back after a sluggish
first quarter to defeat George
town Prep, 61-52.
The team is improving right
along" Dwyer said after the
game. particularly the work of
Joe Starke and Pete Manning.
But want to emphasize, this
was team victory. The 2-3 zone
defense we used and the work
under the boards for possession
was the big factor"

Carroll took an lilo margin
in the first quarter, the 10 points

in a quarter for the night. The
half ended at 17-17 and the
third quarter, 1928, in favor of
Carroll. The fourth period was
all Carroll as first Scanlon End
then Manning. the iatter on four
successful foul shots. widened
the gap.
Scanlon took scoring honors
with IA points while Manning's
10 points were high for Carroll.
Bernie McCarthy's 10 points
were high for St. Johns.
In the opener Priory, which
could muster only one field goal
in the first quarter, and made
only seconds before the quarter
ended, pulled itself together for
19 in the second quarter and a
1920 lead at halftime. With
Demian Crane and Tom Ken
nedy finding the range, Priory
pulled away to a 1888 lead in
the third quarter and added Is
more in the final period.
Gonzaga Beats Coolidge.
Two other Catholic League
teams met with mixed success in
outside competition yesterday as
Gonzaga beat Coolidge, 1910,
and DeMartha dropped a $3.50
decision to Landon.
Gonzaga never trailed in win
ming its third game of four to
date. The Eagles distributed
their high scoring among Ray
Smith, Fred Thornett and Rom
ME Bennett. who scored IA, 13
and IL points, respectively. Doc
Weingarten topped the Colts

Landon ran up a 35-19 half
time advantage on the way to
its fourth straight win and fifth
in six tries. Howard Phelan of
the winners and Bill Russell of
DeMatha shared top scoring
with II points each.
