In what probably was the first
scheduled 27-hole final ever held

Todd played near-par golf to
defeat Buck Sacrey, S and 4. The
split distance between the usual

Potomac Boat Club paddlers
had to wait until the close Of
the day to avenge. in part. their
defeat in q Presidents Cup Re-
gatta canoe program yesterday
on West Potomac Park.
It came in the next to last
event. that actually didn't count
for points It was the special
l15-man war canoe race for the
William A. Rogers memorial
trophy.
With several borrowed paddlers
because they couldn't muster
enough hands. the Potomac
canoe led all the way over WASH
ington Canoe Club and Phila-
delphia Canoe Club, and finished
with some SO feet to spare.
What made that particular
victory so sweet was that the
lPhiladelphians had broken a
I6-year string Of triumphs in a
Presidents Cup canoe program
by Potomac B. c. paddlers.
/ Potomac Overpowered
But yesterday Potomac was
loverpowerd, and the final score
was Philadelphia, AZ: Potomac,
$50; Turkeyfoot Kayak Canoe
Club. Hudson. Ohio, 20. and
washington Canoe Club, 16.
The top three boats in each
event qualified for the Amer
lean Canoe Association nation
ais which Canoe Chairman Dusty
Rhodes said would be held July
20 at Philadelphia.
There was a fresh breeze blow
ing at times. setting UP a cross
chop. and some paddlers COM
planned of wake from passing
power boats. AS a result, some
eight boats swamped during the
day.
In two races the junior and
senior four-man singles. the
third place boats actually went
under before the finish but their
doughty crews rocked the boats
clear Of water and climbed back
aboard, to make the grade. It
happened first to the Philadel-
phia crew and then to the boys
from Turkeyfoot.
Ravens Brothers Score
This senior race produced the
closest finish of the day. Phila-
delphia nosed out Washington
C. C. by inches.

Children's Treatment Center for help
several times a week. He's very
pleased, though, at the progress he
makes and like the 1880 handi-

problem every day with a great
deal of courage.
This Sunday, March 25th, Good
Neighbors will visit Cuyahoga Coun-

to give crippled boys and girls in
the community an opportunity to get
better.
Welcome your Good Neighbor on

Easter Seal dollars help Billie and
all the other crippled children who
try so hard to improve.
