Parkersburg Pair Wins Golf Title
Parkersburg duo Jack Hoblitzell and Jules Blanton won the pro amateur event at the Guyan club course in Huntington as a prelude to the State Open. They defeated Clem Weichman and Bob Parker on the 18th hole after a 69 on reg. play, Blanton sinking a 25 foot birdie to clinch. The playoff arose after Weichman and Barker were disqualified for not carrying scoring cards. Blanton and Hoblitzell refused to accept the title by forfeit and played on. Open play starts tomorrow with medal and 36 holes planned. Weichman is defending champion and favored to repeat.
