There are at least II District
and Maryland State women's
golf cups lining the trophy case
at Argyle Country Club, all
having been won in the past
few months. So it's natural that
the Argyle women'S champion
ship, what with the clubs pre-
dominantly working and single
girls membership should be one
OF the most keenly contested
events in town.
The winner from this rabid
golfing membership was Mrs.
Frank Cush by a 3-and-2 mar
gin over a former champion,
Betty CARRIER. Mrs. Cush, who is
the Maryland State titlist, had
par for a rs when the match
ended on the 10th green. In the
semif1nalS she defeated Georgia
Mae McKeever, 3-and-2, while
Capt. Busch, medalist, and win
ner Of The Star Cup last week,
lost to Miss CARRIER, 2-and-1.
Membership Unique
Argyle has more women golfers
who are members in their own
right than all other private clubs
in the area combined. Most of
them are working girls and most
of them are single. They take
their vacations a day or two at
a time. during tournaments, and
take advantage of daylight saw
ing for an occasional nine holes
or practice during the week.
The result of this feverish
Igolflng activity is shown in the
trophy case. Mrs. Cush holds
the Maryland State title, and
also the Women's D. c. Golf
Presidents Plate.
Argyle won the first team
championship for the third
straight year. Mrs. Leize Moffett
holds the Class D Spates Cup,
Alice Radcliffe the Evans Cup,
and also was the Maryland Field
Day winner; Joe Anne Bachelor,
Is years old, is the Post Times
Herald Class A Cup champion,
and the Maryland junior girls
champion. Dorothy Omolecki
won the Keefer Cup, and Miss
Busch the Cumberland Invita-
ton and the Class A Star Cup.
Although Kenwood, Chevy
Chase, Indian Spring, Manor and
other clubs have had first teams
packed with the Districts best
golfers, it is doubtful if any other
club has held so many cups at
one time.
