Local Golfers Compete In Charleston, S.C. Amateur Event CHARLESTON SHOOTOUT... Charleston, S.C. Is an Important Atlantic seaport and the state’s second largest city. It is famous for tts preservation of buildings and charm of the 1700’s and 1800’s. Many of the old homes are built of stuccoed brick, and have steep slate ropfs. Known locally as single , houses most are built flush with the sidewalk. The Charleston area has won fame for its gardens. John Galsworthy, the English author, called the Magnolia Gardens "the most beautiful in the world." Middleton Place Gardens are among the oldest landscaped gardens In the country.

Charleston is the home of the Port City Golf Club, which is famous for its Amateur Golf Tour nament. A tournament that sports a large field of golfers, a number of them from the Charlotte area. A tournament that boasts a multi tude of prizes, three prize winners per flight and four trophies per flight. A tournament that is played on Charleston Municipal Golf Course, a short but deceiving 18-hole tract. ine participation from Char lotte’s golf contingent wasn’t as large as usual, but it was repre sentative. John Love scored an 18-hold total of 77 Saturday, May 29, which put him in the first flight. However, the bell rang Sunday and when the smoke cleared John's score of 80 cast him out of the roll of spoiler and into the unenviable role of also ran.

Of the twelve players that par ticipated from the Charlotte area, most of them settled into the third flight for Sunday’s payoff round. Angus Jenkins shot an 84 Saturday, brought that score back to a 76 Sunday for a third place finish. His reward - a gift certificate and a trophy. Don Qusener shot an 84 Saturday but withdrew from Sun day'around. Willie Thompson and Shelly Lawrence played well Saturday. Shelly played the course in 82 strokes and Willie 83. The proverbial snake bit both of them Sunday, and their dreams of victory dissolved like a scoop of vanflla ice cream in the heat of this late Mav afternoon. Lawrence shot 90 and Thompson ahot 92. Oh, the frustration!! I John McClure and George Wil liams were our participants In the fourth flight. John carded an 86 Saturday, two strokes ahead of his companion who carded an 88 after the 18 holes. Sunday, John scored a very respectable 80, while George kept his same 88. For John’s effort he won second place prizes and a trophy. For George it was the traditional handshake and better luck next year. There were no Charlotte winners In the sixth flight. Brice Ardrey scored (92-96) 188. Harry Benton scored (93-92) 185) And Paul Coutourier scored (94-106) 199.

Robert Sweetenburg led-the flight for 17 holes Sunday. On the eighteenth tee, confident that he had little else to do to capture first _^ce. HeApadjed into his bag, pulledouttne driver, the club that had brought him this far. Sweets proceeded to knock two balls out of bounds, (groanI moan!). The out of bounds tee shots cost him the lead and an eventual playoff birth for fourth place. However--bad luck comes bunched like grapes. On the first playoff hold, Robert hit his tee, shot out of bounds. With it the thoughts of gift certificates, trophies and congratulatory smiles, like snowball In the devil's kitchen. In their place, gloom, despair and the realization that golf gives and golf takes away William McCollum shot a W the first day, which placed him in the seventh flight. Sunday’s round of 88 elevated him to one of the prize winning slots. Billy’s second place finish was sood for a trophy and a nice gift certificate.
