That mark was set in 1949 after the initial meet in '48 attracted 40 entries. No tournament was held here last because Tallahassee played to the Florida state amateur women tourney.

Actual firing in this third TWIT meet is slated to get underway Thursday when contenders for the championship flight post their qualifying scores over the local 18- hole layout. Entries in all flights save the championship division can qualify with an attested score-card from their home course. FAULK MAY NOT DEFEND While no definite word has been received from two-time champion Miss Faullc, it appears now that she will not defend her title again this year. The lithe Georgia star, who toured the local course in a practice round Friday, indicated at the time that she would probably en-'ter the 23rd annual Florida east coast golf championship for which is being run off at St -Augustine from March 6 through 10. In th event that Miss Faulk does not defend.

Emma Scalley, current Florida state women's will probably move into the role of decided favorite. Miss Scalley won her state crown over this same 'course last May, and her game is well adapted to the rolling, wooded local layout. Emma Lou Prince, Gainesville see who has always been a strong contender in tourneys here, is considered one of the real threats again this year. Bessie Martin, Tallahassee star, and Mrs Helnberg, Jackson tille, are other well-regarded entries. 600 IN SILVER PRIZES With the opening of play still five days away a total of 14 entries have been received with the bulk of them being filed by Tallahassee shotmakers.

Beverly Brock, president of our Tallahassee Woman's Golf association, and the chairman of the various tournament committees met Friday afternoon to discuss the work done thus far on the tournament and to correlate future plans. Besides Beverly, the following: chairmen were present: Mary McCampbell, tournament chairman, Trances Teague. invitation chairman, Carolyn Dedge, publicity chairman, Sara Proctor, chairman of decorations, Lou Hay, chairman of poster and program, Jeanne Brock, entertainment chairman. At their monthly meeting Wednesday night, the Tallahassee Men's Golf association voted to contribute $100 towards the financing of our tournament. We certainly appreciate this generous gesture and say thanks a million for the hundred.

We are proud of the confidence and good will that exists betwen our two organizations. The entertainment committee has announced there Is to be a buffet supper on the night of March 9 and a party the following night. Those planning to attend the buffet supper should register for it at the country club no reservations will be accepted via telephone. We are flattered to learn that Mrs Eloise Helnberg, one of Jacksonville's better woman golf' ers, has chosen to compete in our tournament in preference to the State tournament which Is being held next month. Other out-of-towners who have recently made known their intentions of being here are Mrs Norman (Sparky) Veal of Jacksonville, who will be a house guest of Beverly Brock; and Mrs John Cordegna of West Palm Beach who will be the house euest of Mrs Durwood Both "Sparky" and "Winnie" were up for the state tourney held here last year and we are very happy to welcome them back.

Congratulations to Lou Hay, wife of the ole pro, on the 90 she had last week. It is. Lou's best 18-hole score 6lnce she began to play golf. I was playing with her when she got her previous best score of B3, but fortunately missed her latest record breaking feat and don't think that my "skinney bank" could have survived ltl Eessie Martin also had a terrific 85, but I do not believe that this reversed two one-sided losses to the nation's number one basketball-power during the season to pull what probably will go down as this season's prime upset. They wrapped knots in the Wildcats' usually prolific scoring machine and came through wi a sharp attack of their own to lead much of the way and always come back when the Kentuckians got on top.

They had to tear down on 10-point Kentucky lead in the second half. PUZZLING DEFENSE Vandy put the brakes to. Kentucky's fast break and. had thai Wildcats at a loss to solve shifting defense. The Commodores won their first Southeastern Conferenca tournament, a price- that didn't, however, carry with it the SEC title.

Kentucky won that during the season play, whining 14 games without a loss, Two of Kentucky's seasonal wins were over Vandy, one by 74-49 at Nashville and one by 89-57 a week ago tonight at Lexington.

Pi Phis Record 6-0 Powder Bowl Win Pi Beta Phi topped Kappa Alpha Theta 6-0 yesterday Florida State University's fourth annual Fowder Puff Bowl game. The two sororities battled on even terms during the scoreless first half, but the Pi Phis broke loose in the fading minutes of the final half to score. Holden tossed a 40 -yard pass to Itasmussen and the Pi Phi end raced another 40 to score the lone touchdown of the contest.

A pass for the extra point failed. The Thetas tried desperately to get back into the ball game, but a long drive was halted on the Pi Phi 20. All proceeds of the classic went to the FSU campus chest. FSU Upsets (Continued from Page 8) floor gave Florida State the lead 30 seconds later and a free throw by Whitmer made the Seminoles lead three points. THERE THEY GO Three charity tosses tied things up again for Stetson with 6:10 to go, but at 5:55 McLaughlin's free throw put State on top 55-54.

Dickson and Dick Trobaugh hit field goals to make it 59-54. The Seminoles stalled and got three points the best of the basket trading from there to the finish.

Hartman added fifteen markers to make his season total 403 and become the first player in Florida State history to go over the 400 mark. His floor game and play-making were outstanding.

Mclaughlin big factor Big Tom McLaughlin was a major factor in Florida state's victory as he played his best game of the season to hold Stetson's 6-foot. 8-inch high scoring center. Jim Yonge, to 11 points. His rebounding, particularly off the defensive backboard, was great. Dickson came in just in time to contribute his 5 point to the Seminoles closing drive.

Trobaugh and Bud Marsee, the latter playing with his injured arm heavily bandaged, got in their share of the heavy work.

vvhat prooaoiy neat Anderson was the fact that she failed to take advantage of the breaks that came her way. Otherwise the match was nip and tuck all the way. Both girls played their best golf on the out nine before a gallery of about 1,200 persons. Coming in they cooled off. Their worst hole was the 16th, when both went two over men's par with sixes.

"Both Edean and I felt on edge," explained Polly after the match. "I don't think either of us played our best golf." The girls burned up par on the out nine, arriving at the turn tied for holes. Anderson had a 35 and Riley a 36. Men's par for the Ormond Beach course is 37. LEAD CHANGES HANDS Coming in they started swapping the lead, Riley went ahead on the 10th when she sank a 50 yard approach shot for a birdie three, probably the most sensational shot of the match.

Anderson won the 11th to even the match. Riley won the 12th. Then they traded holes up to the final green. On the 18th Anderson's drive and approach shot were off. The match ended when she missed a 25 foot putt by inches.

March 3, (JV) Coach Andy Qustafson is considering a football camp for hi3 University of Miami Hurricanes prior to the opening of classes next September, No decision has been made and probably won't be in the near future.

But Manager Casey Stengel took it calmly, remarking: "What can you say? It's up to him, to lead his own life." "This might be my last year," DiMaggio said in an interview. "I would like to have a good year, and then hang my spikes up." "I have absolutely no idea of managing a ball club. I have plenty of headaches running myself, and would not be interested in directing a group of players.

doubtless could go right on playing ball for some years to come. I am not, as some writers have insisted, a brittle ballplayer. I never have been. I am a good, tough-boned guy. FALL DECISIOV "I won't make my final decision, of course, until the fall.

But right now my plan is to hang up my spikes then. I'd like to quit at the top rather than fade out. At the end of the season I'll make a definite statement." DiMaggio said he has not Informed Manager Casey Stengel nor the Yankee management that this may be his last year. "I think they probably have a pretty good notion about it, however," he said. DiMaggio was uncertain about his future plans.
