Forty-two teenage golfers from 18 Kansas communities have entered the state Junior Chamber of Commerce golf tournament that will be held here Friday and Saturday. The young players headed here are considered the cream of the teenage crop. They are shooting at four free trips to the national Junior Chamber tournament at Houston, Aug. 2-7. A committee of Iola Jaycees, George Bowlus, Dr. Joe Littrell, Don Kelley, Arthur Brigham, Jr., Orville Kretzmeier and Wilbur Norton, are in charge of the tournament here.
