Plans rsr = visit OF Raglan sna gcstci,
F1ayera.

Players.
It Is expected that the definite announcement
viii be made this weok regarding the proposed
visit to this country Of a team Of English and
Scotch golf amateurs. Charles Broadwood, one
ofthe best known amateursin England, and John
Reid. President OF the St. Andrews Golf Club,
have been In correspondence, as THE SUN has
stated, regarding the matter for nearly two
years. At first 1t was proposed to bring over q
couple OF professionals, who would give exhibit
tions for whatever purses would DO subscribed
at the different clubs, while the amateurs would
visit for team matches. This project was not
too warmly received in this country, and the
countor suggestion was made that the amateurs
should come for an extended trip, and to play
team matches on such dates as might BIO ar
ranged, but that the professionals DO left at
home.
1t is now almost o certainty that the visit viii
be made according to the suggestion Of the
Americans. The foreigners will undoubtedly
have a splendid time and no lack Of goling. Tn
st. Andrews Club will play q team against
them, and 1t is also planned to arrange matches
for the visitors with an 'All-America" team. n
Western and an Eastern toam. and a Motropoli-
tan Golf Association team. Every club that
wishes to may get on o match. Tho contest with
tho st. Andrews Club will probably mark the
