under par for five matches in
winning his second Argyle
Country Club Invitation tour
nament, and the 20-year-old
Manor Club golfer must be
ranked among the favorites in
the District Amateur cham
pionship. which starts two
weeks from Thursday at Ken
wood.
For the first time since 1883

Frank Allan two straight years
in the Chevy Chase Invitation

same f1nalists for two straight
tournaments, McFe~ren VS..
Keith Kallio.
And the title match ended
on the same hole both years,
McFerren defeating Kallio. 4
and 2, yesterday. Two years
ago (there was no tournament
last year, McFerren beat Kali
lilo, 3 and 2.
May Captain Terps
Jerry, who probably will cap
tain the University of Mary
land golf team next year. had
run into a hot round by an
opponent in his previous COM
petitive appearances this year.
In the Maryland Amateur over
his home Manor course, he lost
to George Thornton, / up, in
the quarter finals.
In the Middle Atlantic Anna
teur at Chevy Chase, McFerren
lost in 20 holes to John Grubb
after both shot 70s in a first-
round match.
Jerry will try for the District
crown. and may play in the
Eastern Amateur at Ports
mouth, Va, August 15-16-17.
He was two under par for 16
holes yesterday, with three
brides and a lone DOGGY on the
18th hole. He was three up
after eight. but lost the ninth
hole when Kallio riccocheted a
second shot of an apple tree
within 2 feet of the cup for
a birdie three.
Putter Fails KalIiO
Kallio matched his conqueror
shot for shot. but couldn't
make a putt. and lost his last
chance when he three-putted
the l4th green.
Kallio went home with an
other runnerup trophy and a
4-foot black snake. He found
the snake on the eighth tee,
and while the gallery ran,
Kallio. former policeman
and weightlifter. calmly picked
up the snake. He found a box,
put the snake in it, and was
going to carry 1t to a pet
shop.
Kallio has been runnerup in
this tournament twice, in the
last Kenwood Invitation. and
was runnerup in the Maryland
Amateur last summer.

Of the United States Military
Academy golf team, who missed
the championship fight by a
stroke by taking an eight on
the par three fifth hole in
the qualifying round. won the
second fight.
