al nny McGuire has his eye on one . those five places that will constitute the Indianapolis Public Links team in the national tournament at Pittsburgh, Pa., July 30 to Aug 4. John has been a regular member the last several years and served as captain. His interest in the game and interest in the players is of the highest class. It is worthy of note that a pLayer of his experience is trying for a 1934 teafrn berth. Wednesday being Fourth of July, John found time to play golf. He sauntered out east to Pleasant Run links where the final eighteen holes of the fifty-four-hole Indianapolis qualification test will be played next Sunday. With eighteen holes remaining to be played, John is in fourth place, five strokes behind the leader, Walter Chapman, who has 144. Dave Mitchell and Vaughan King are in between with 145 and 146 strokes, respectively. So. out to Irvington went John, and what he did to that course was plenty. He bettered course par five strokes, scoring a 68. He slipped over par one stroke on the 1 second hole, but came back w’ith two birdies and five pars on the next seven holes to reach the turn in 35, one under par. a a a COOING on a rampage against pai 3 again on the last nine, McGuire bettered perfect figures by four strokes to score a 33 against par 37. He birdied the tenth hole, scored an eagle on the twelfth, slipped over par one stroke on No. 15 and then scored his second eagle of the nine holes on No. 18. All the other holes were played in par. All McGuire had to say was that he was ‘ just playing well,” and wished the 68 could have been scored next Sunday. when he will need it. McGuire's card against par follows: Pr Out 44543534 4—36 McGuire 4 5 4 4 3 5 33 4—35 Per In 43535444 5—37—36-73 McGuire ...33335544 3—33—35—68! a a a More than thirty members of the! Pleasant Run Men's Club engaged. in a flag tournament yesterday. A1 Dowd, just a youngster—in fact the youngest member of the club—. carried off first honors by reaching the twentieth cup, where he tied his i flag onto the pin. A1 had the benefit of a fifteen-stroke handicap. Clark Espie, who plays with a four-stroke handicap, scored a 70 j on the first eighteen holes and his allottment of 77 for the flag tournament took him to the twentieth j green, just short of the cup. George Jordan captured third place, just; reaching the twentieth green. A $65 golf bag that was raffled off went to Harry Horten. a a a A galaxy of events was on the program at Hillcrest over the holiday stetch. In one of the most interesting, Frank T. Lewis and his son Dave Lewis captured the father and son tournament by five strokes, besting T. H. David and son John. 135 to 140. The flag tournament at Hillcrest was really a thrilling event. Three players finished w'ithin a few yards of each other and one scant yard separated the first and second place winners. C. N. Carter took first place, getting 325 yards down the twentieth fairway with the strokes allotted him. R. H. Mohr was second. 324 yards down the twentieth fairway, and Mike Warren, third, was 150 yards down the same stretch. A flock of ties cropped out in the ball sweepstakes event, but none was near enough to tie Bill Higburg for first place. Bill had a gross 86 with a 25 stroke handicap for a net 61. which was eight strokes better I than W. H. Roberts, who took second place with 83-14, net 69. Five players tied for fifth prize with net scores of 71 each. Dr. J. ; V. Timons had 81-10-71; A. C. Crum, 91-20-71; R. J. Kemper. 83-12-71; | C. V. Spickelmier, 98-27-71, and H. C. Stude, 89-18-71. Four players tied for thirteenth prize with net 725. They were C. F. Campbell. 99-27-72; J. E. Campbell, 95-23-72; F. C. Hughes. 80-8-72; J. j E. Campbell. 95-23-72; F. C. Hughes. 30-8—72 and H. W. Dawson, 9018—72. Three tied for the last prize. Thev were E. M. Hunker. 94-20-74; E. W. Krutsinger. 85-11-74 and C. J. Taylor, 93-19-74. a a a Rov Smith took a trip around the 1 course with the ooys and had four birdies on the first seven holes. Chick 1 Taylor and Dr. Hughes vied for the vitamin ’’D - ’ honors, playing ala wrestler style, and boy how they did moan at those birdies. Funny part about it, they have Roy figured pretty well. Day before yesterday the Hillcrest pro had to do a 69 to win a quarter.
Mrs. Carl H. McCaskey, president of the Indiana Women's Golf Association, has sounded a warning to women golfers over the state to get in their entries for the thir- 1 teenth annual state championship. 1 to be played next week over South Bend Country Club links. It is the wish of the state ofTcers to have players together in the qualification test who play nearly the same game. Also the association has a system of starting players with the lowest handicaps first. Thus, in cases of ties, except for the sixteenth position in each flight, the first players to start are given preference because they are lower handicap shooters. The state officers plan to make the pairings Friday night for release in Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning papers. Get your entry and club handicap to Mrs. K. T. Knode. South Bend Country Club, at once. * * u Caddies at all the local clubs are talking about the state caddy rhampionship at Tri-County Country Club links in Waldron next Monday. Manager Padgett of the TriCountv Country Club, which is located thirty miles southeast of Indianapolis on road No. 29 just east of Shelbyville. has arranged for trophies to go to the four-man caddy team which has the lowest total score. He also has a cup for the individual with the lowest score. The event will be thirty-six holes, eighteen holes in the morning and the same number in the afternoon. Entry fee will be $1 per man. If the caddies who play desire services of caddies they may bring their own.; A^’many teams can enter from any j
one club as desire. Send entries in advance or enter at first tee. a a a Earl Beck, with an 85 stroke allowance, planted the flag allotted him in the Meridian Hills tournament near the second too. He completed eighteen holes and hit a mighty second shot on the nineteenth hole that carried past the green. S. B. Lindley completed a full eighteen holes with 89 strokes and G. J. Bramwood was just a foot short of tying him. His eighty-ninth shot stopped a foot from the cup. a a a DR. GALLAHUE captured the . flag tournament at the Indianapolis Country Club, reaching midway down the twentieth fairway with his last shot. Dr. Cleon A. Nafe was too good for the boys in the thirty-six-hole tournament for the Jillson cup. He captured first honors with a 79-80 159 total. a a a GEORGE BOUTAR, genial Scotch pro at Broadmoor was in full glory yesterday as his club staged its annual big golf event known as the pari-mutuei. George makes a red hot betting commissioner and had the boys figured about right so far as handicaps are concerned. Charles Efroyrnson. playing with a 22 handicap, took first honor'-- for low net w-ith a 91 gross and 69 net. Second place went (o Arthur Meyers, with 91-19—72. and Leonard Lurvey and Richard Efroymson tied for third with 745. Ludvey had 93-19 and Efroymson 97-23. The winning foursome was composed of J. J.
