Sixteen The Scholastic National Catholic School Track Meet Here in June SPLINTERS FROM THE PRESS BOX

By Al Bride By Joe Prendergast . Director of Athletics Elmer F. Layden and Track Coach Nicholson have just made a joint announcement TAYLOR AND THE GOLF TEAM that the third annual Notre' Dame Bill Taylor, star sophomore member of the Notre Dame golf team, shot a National Catholic Interscholastic track and field championships wll be 69 last Monday afternoon to break the William J. Burke golf course record. held at Notre Dame commencement His feat was performed midst a sizeable downpour on a soggy course. Taylor at the start of the season showed signs of excellent.golf but never did Father Holderith, Irish coach, think that the Detroit lad w'ould reach his peak at such an early date. Captain Winfield Day held the existing course record of 70 pre\'ious to Taylor's par-breaking deluge and had only that morning tied his 70 mark, only, to have his fine tally wiped out completely.

The Irisher's new record holder was masterful all the way around the soaked layout. His putting was uncanny. He gave one the air of confidence just to see him measure his putts, study the contour of the green and delib­ erate all his putter shots from a four-incher on the eighteenth green to a 30- footer on the sixteenth. He sank both of them as did he glide home a 12-footer on the first and a 20-footer on the eleventh. Taylor was out in 35, two under the limit and back in 34 one under par to climax the greatest round of golf, as yet shot on the local course. Here is the complete story of his card:

Par Out 444 453 445—37 Taylor Out 345 443 444 35 Par In - —- 443 443 535—35 72 Taylor In 533 442 535—34—69

Prendergast took both of their men with ease. Cannon and Vervaet lost to the Detroiters in the singles. In the doubles matches Fallon and Pren­ dergast lost after a hard battle, while Waldron teamed \vith McNulty to win their match, and Feeley and Vervaet do^\^led their opponents in straight sets, 6-2, 6-4.

At Peoria the Irish were met by stiff competition and poor courts but went ahead to win against Bradley in the same fashion that they conquered Detroit, winning four singles matches and losing two, and merging ahead in the doubles to win 2-1. With the start which the Irish got in these two matches, it can be expected that the tennis team will make a comparable sho\ving with the other Notre Dame teams this year.
