STATE AMATEUR GOLFERS CONTINUE QUALIFYING PLAY

Stevens, Redmond and Buell Lead First Day; Champion Far Behind Top Trio Turns in 71s. Followed by Bill Heinlein's 72: Lance Gets 80 and Other Former Champions Falter Badly. BY DICK MILLER Timet Staff Correspondent HILLS COURSE FRENCH LICK, Ind., Aug. 19.—George Lance, the defending champion, and several other state amateur golfers with reputations were forced to bear down today to qualify for match play in the thirtieth annual amateur championship being staged this week over Tom Taggart s sporty golf grounds. Lance who is seeking his fourth consecutive crown, faced possible elimination if he duplicated his round of Monday when he scored an 80 in the first eighteen holes of the thirty-six-holc qualifying test. Bill Diddei, five times ex-champion of Highland < Indianapolis, followed in Lance s footsteps Monday and made a 79. Dwight Mitchell, local hotel bookkeeper who won the title in 1925. had a 77.

These three players, who nave accounted for nine of the thirty championships, played in the same threesome Monday. Max Buell of Highland ‘lndianapolis), Ralph Stevens of Evansville and W. L. (Rags) Redmond of Peru led the pack with 71s Monday. Os the five ex-champions in the title play this year only one, Bobby Resener of Kokomo, showed anything like brilliant form Monday. Bobby fired a 73, one over course par and looms as a dangerous contender. Herman Sielkcn of Avalon (Indianapolis! the other ex-champion, fired a 78. High cross winds hampered the golfers today and the three Monday leaders were far over par figures. Ralph Stevens had a 41 for the first nine, wlrilc Rags Redmond and Max Buell each had 38. Bobby Rcscner covered the first half in 37 and Chick Rawer was forced to take f. 42. It appeared for a time Monday that Bill Heinlein. who first gained championship honors as The Indianapolis Times interscholastic champion in 1928 and 1929. would lead the pack with a 69 or 70. Heinlein fired the brand of golf that carried him to the state junior championship recently and reached the tenth tec. in 34, two under par. He clipped coming in a finish in 72. Select Thirty-two Thirty-six players had scores of 82 or better Monday. It appears certain that the select thirty-two will come from this group, or at least the first forty. Last year’s medal score of 138. shot by Lance, does not appear in danger. Last year a score of 162 placed two players in positions 31 and 32 in the championship flight and it is not expected that the mark will be bettered this year. a a V The field in the state amateur golf tourney reached 105, that number being players who actually finished their eighteen holes of play Monday and turned in cards. Two players tore up their cards and seven who had sent advance entry fees failed to appear. Os the 105 competitors, fifty-two are from Indianapolis. George Lance, who now lives in Indianapolis, but who has not affiliated with any club, entered from Rea Park, Terre Haute. a a a Thf field shows an Increase of sixteen r rr last vear. when tl%-e were 91.
