Then there was that steaming
Sunday afternoon at Columbia
Country Club when a small and
somewhat tardy group left the
clubhouse to seek out the final
round contestants In the Mary
land Amateur championship.
Better hurry up If you want

yelled. Ralph Bogart was 8 up

So the small group hurried.
but when they caught up with
the match they saw a lot. Harry
|Parr Nv started cutting into Boz
CARTS lead and won hole after
hole until he squared the match.
Bogart had to make a 10-footer
lon the SD to keep from going
one down. Ralph finally pulled
himself together and won.
Bogart also figured in another
memorable moment, but this one
had an unhappy ending. It was
in the third round of the Ma
tional Amateur in Richmond.
Ralph lost the 18th and 18th
holes to Edwin Hopkins, and
then the match when Hopkins
won the 10th. There was a look
Of disbelief on Bogart's face
when his 4-foot putt on the 18th
hole hung on the lip. but
wouldn't drop.
+
Bobby Brownell, too. was in
volved in a pair of matches that
linger. He finally won his 18th
District Amateur championship
without defeat. but it was in
doubt for moment in the sec
ond-round match with Perky
Cullinane. Brownell had to
make a tricky -footer on the
18th at Army Navy to avoid
extra holes. The putt veered to
the right as it reached the cup.

or two that seemed like minutes.
and finally dropped.
In Baltimore Brownell shot a
SO in the first round of the Ma
tional Amateur qualifying that
was held over two courses. This
was to be Bobby's year to make
a serious bid in the Amateur and
it appeared he had the medal
and place locked up. But he
scared to 80 in the second round
and he'll never forget the weak
duck hook he hit in the playoff.
He had played almost 200 holes
Iof serious golf in six days and
didn't have a shot left for the
Iplayoff.
! There was Mrs. Edward Ferri-
days sparkling golf in the Dis
trict women's, and Mrs. Frank
ICush's startling upset of Mrs.
Maurice Click en- route to the
Maryland women's title. There
was Chandler Harper,s pair of
Cts in the Open qualifying at
Columbia. the best golf ever
played there in one day. And
there was that week end at
Myrtle Beach. the first Golf
Writers Championship? The
Igolf year was exciting enough to
wish for it all over again.

The field already has matched
last January's list of Is partici

the number of individual en-
tries climbing above the 3o'
mark, compared with 1913 a veal
ago.
Early favorites for the meel

If you plan on taking a trip
such as outlined above or only
go on a local hunting trip. you
should have a physical checkup
by your family physician. Men
and women who lead sedentary
lives and suddenly subject their
bodies to unusual strains and
stresses necessary in trips Of this
sort, often pay high penalty
without expecting to do so. Re-
ports at the close of Wisconsin,

1t states categorically. THE huge
conservation program which is
being carried on aggressively by
each of the 48 States and the
Territories is bolstered by Fed
eral aid program which during
the last fiscal year made nearly
$16 million available to the
States. Nothing is said
about the source of these funds
which are in themselves a rather
extraordinary expression of the
wishes of sportsmen.
In the strict sense. these funds
are not Federal aid. They are
merely the return Of the cash
paid in by Sportsmen themselves

exclaimed Beanie. Surely we
don't have to go back for that"

said Santa. He started away.
Beanie caught the chimney
sweeper's arm. He did not know
the chimney sweeper was really
Santa in disguise.
III CO." he cried. IF the

He turned and ran back down
all the long steps to the dungeon

hoping against hope that the
dwarf would have vanished by
now.
When the door opened he
heard a moaning. He dropped
to his knees and felt on the floor.
His fingers closed around a thing
Of clay and he dropped it into
his pocket.
At that moment there was q

AS Beanie's head came out at

back into the arms of the dwarf.

Miss Lucy Brash gets away
with a lot of wild bids, but
against two masters Of misdirec-
direction like Mr.. Dale and Mr.
Masters she didn't have a chance
on this one. !
Note that If she had guessed
everything exactly right. she
could have made seven-odd. AS
It was, she was set at six.
:. Mr.. Dale's opening lead was
the four of diamonds. Dummy S
queen won the trick. Miss Brash
saw at once that she had pos
sible loser in both spades and
hearts.
4 One OF her hearts could go
On dummy's third diamond and
1t least one more could go on
dummy's clubs. But to expect
to get rid of four losing hearts
on dummy's high cards was too
optimistic even for Miss Brash.
At trick two she led the trey
Of hearts from the board and
finessed the queen, which held.
Mr.. Dale promptly dropped the
nine. Things were looking up.
Next MISS Brash led to dunn
my's ace of spades and returned
the deuce. She has an uncanny
knack for picking off lone queens,
but here Mr.. Masters played the
ten. She now figured that either
he had no more spades, in which
case she was bound to lose TO
the queen, or that he had lust
the queen left. So she finessed
the jack and Mr.. Dale won
the trick.
A diamond came back and she
won with the king. She pulled
the last trump and gave Mr..
Masters a scathing look when
he turned up with the eight
spot. Now she had to avoid los
ing a heart.
She went to dummy with the
ace Of clubs, still hoping one
opponent might hold the queen
and ten alone. No luck. She
picked up only the trey and
deuce.
Well, if Mr.. Dale were telling
the truth about his nine-of-
hearts play, he might still have
the lone ten left. In that case
the winning play was to pull
the jack of hearts through. That
was Miss Brash's play. MI
Masters covered the jack with
the king, as expected, but Mr.
Dale played the elusive five spot
His ten Of hearts won the set
ting trick.
