The handicaps and matches arranged

Gay, Tuesday and Wednesday OF this

association has an arbitrary rule on ham
dicaps for tournament match play. For
instance, if a player has one handicap
ever his opponent. it is necessary for his
handicap 10 give him one stroke on hill
No 10: if he has two one stroke each on
holes No s and Is. This progression con-
tinues for eighteen holes, and in the lat
ter case a man having a handicap of IS,
his opponent must give him one stroke
on each hole Mr. Turpie will be on hand
Monday Tuesday and Wednesday when
the first series is to be played. and will
mark on the score card of the contestants
in designation of what holes in each case
Will be effected by the handicaps. 1t is
