East Potomac is a neighborhood golf course that Washington Post Cartoonist Herblock, 54, likes to waffle around on. Westerner Stewart Udall, 44, thinks of conservation in terms of wide open spaces, not a metropolitan nine holes. The twain finally met, however, after the Interior Secretary okayed plans to build a parking lot and aquarium on the course, bringing an anguished letter from his friend Herb challenging Stew to a friendly round, "because I want him to see the course from a player's viewpoint."
