Evans' Team Leads
In Golf Tourney
Horace Evans’ team leads in
points in the four-team tourna
ment in progress at the Perry
Country Club, but only 31 of 100
matches have been completed, Pro
Bill Goby reported yesterday.
Evans’ team has 26 points, Ju
lian Cawthon’s team 25 ponits,
Earl Lewis’ team 22 points and
Hubert Stefanini’s team 20 points.
At least two 18-hole matches
should be completed by next Sun
day afternoon, Coby said. If com
plications arise which prevents
two players from arranging a
match, arrangements will have to
be made by the captains to have
their team members play a match
and submit an attested score card.
It is permissible to play 9 holes
one day and 9 another day, Coby
said, but all must complete three
matches of 18 holes each.
The two top teams will be
guests of the two low teams at a
supper on Oct. 30 at the club.
