The pros and the star anna
teurs usually dominate the head
lines in the weekly Mid-Atlantic
PGA Pro-Amateur tournaments.
but the high handicap players
and week end golfers had their
day at Washington GSsCC yes
terday.
Bill Offutt. a 7-handicap play
er from the host club, and Jack
Mccormick. a wild l6-handicap
golfer from Clifton Park in Bal
timore, were the biggest prize
winners of the day except for
Clare Emery, the host pro.
Ofutt had one of those can't
miss days, including an eagle 3
on the 18th hole, as he posted
his best competitive round. He
had 70 minus Z for a net IS to
win low net in the amateur
sweeps, and he and Jimmy Bel
lizzi tied for second IN the Pro-
Am with best ball of 81.
A Poor Finish
Mccormick had in sight one Of
the lowest net rounds in the rec
ords of the tournaments as he
stood on the 10th tee only six
over par. But he finished six
over on the last three for an 81.
But that 50 and his handicap
strokes helped Mccormick and
Joe Vaeth of Clifton Park win
the Pro-Am with a best ball of
so, 10 under par. Vaeth, a reg
ular contributor to the weekly
events but rarely a prize winner,
had one Of his best rounds, a 70.
Offutt's two prizes, and Nc
Cormick's share Of the Pro-Am
loot and his tie for second in
the amateur net with 82-16-66
made them the big prize winners.
In fact, If they'd been any better
they might have topped the
USGA's merchandise limit for
amateurs.

Police Regulation
Could Give Bldck-Eye

Another resident, writing in
connection with the recent
Police Regulations to change
the headlights, indicated that
such an order tends to give
t h e Police Department a
"black-eye." He is w. E. Will
cox, a local merchant. Mr..
Wilcox writes: i
May | add my voice to
those protesting the change in
automobile headlights.
"This regulation obviously
was not thought through and
/ believe tends to give a black
eye to the Department of Pub
lie Safety which has recently
been acquiring considerably
increased public esteem.
Aside from all the techni-
-tF
calities involved it is quite
probably that the archaic left
hand driving rule will be
changed. Then all the lights
will have to be switched back
again.
Lets get started with petit
tons showing a sufficient vo-
lume of protest against the
ridiculous left hand driving to
cause the Legislature to revise
the law. That will end the
nonsense a b 0 u t changing
lights and make travel on the
roads safer, at one and the
same time, in daylight as well
as at night"
