Frank Crilley Of Columbia
and Ned Oldt won the longest
match within memory and Ray
mond Briscus oStruck a blow
for the hackers of America
In the Congressional member
guest tournament yesterday.
Crilley and Oldt went q
holes to defeat Dick Latimer Of
Columbia and Ken Poerstel,
used up about seven hours and
forced the postponement Of
one semifinal match until this
morning.
arilley and Oldt meet Harold
Harwood Of Columbia and
Jim Bogley, up winners over
Ted Rutley Of Kenwood and
Bob Chandler, defending cham
pions.
Win Two Matches
BriScuso, fortified with an
l8 handicap. teamed with
Claude Rippy Of Bethesda to
eliminate Sal DiMaio Of Manor
and Butter Day, 4 and 2, in
the semifinals after beating
Bill Brownrigg Of Manor and
Richard Gill in 20 holes in the
morning quarter-finals.
Crilley decided the 27-hole
marathon with par five at
the ninth after the two teams
had halved 10 straight holes
with pars.
Latimer and Poerstel were
never up in the match but
Crilley and Oldt had a two-up
advantage at the end of the
first nine when they won the
eighth and ninth.
Latimer and Poerstel
bounced back to win both the
10th and 1lth, and then halved
the 18th.
This set off an Alfonso and
Castor act when Crilley and
Oldt won the 18th, lost the 14th,
won the 18th and lost the 10th
and then went off to the 10
hole halving spree.
On the 9th, Crilley was on
the green within birdie range,
but Latimer was still in a trap
behind the putting surface In
four. He tried to putt out and
rammed the ball about 10 feet
past the cup. Crilley then Jagged
his putt close and Latimer and
Poerstel conceded.
Postponed SemifinaI
1t was then a little after 4
pm. and tournament officials,
fearing the semifinal tamhc
with Harwood and Boglet
wouldn't be completed before
dark, decided to hold 1t over
until today.
Harwood and Bogley, winners
Of the Columbia member-guest
two weeks ago, almost blew a
big lead. They were five UP at
the turn, but then Chandler
and Rutley went to work.
They played the back nine In
four under par and coming to
the 18th were only one down
and ready for a dramatic finish.
All but Rutley we're on the
green with birdie putts-Har-
wood from IL feet, Chandler,
who had Just birdied the nth,
from six feet and Bogley from
four.
