NJ the Metropolitan Golf Association are settled

40 pleased with it's new links and club house
that IL intends to hold an open competition,
while both the Dyker Meadow and Ardslcy
clubs have a similar step under consideration.
The allotted dates already crowd the time until
thanksgiving Day, so 1t 10 difficult to solve the
complication.
