COLFINC NEWS.

Again the secretaries of several clubs in the MetropQlitan Golf. association are dilatory in sending in their. lists to the Handicap committee of the asso- ciation, which Is composed of ]. F. Erickson, chairman; F. ]. Phillips, and F. s. Douglas. The lists were due on January 20, and twenty-four out of thirty7seven clubs were on time, and the other thirteen have come In since. Twenty-one more clubs are to be heard from, and the committee is greatly hampered In its work by the careless ness of their secretaries. The hanli- cap list is difficult proposition for the committee, and that club secretar- ies should add to the abors of the trio Is unexplainable. Among the first lists received was that of the Garden City club, made out by Walter ]. Travis, which contains more names than any other club. The delinauents are as follows: Arsdale, Bsltusrol. Briarcliff. Country Club of westchester county, Country Clut of Lakewood. Cranford. Dunwoodle, Fairfield. Fairview, Holly wood, Larchn,ont, Mahopac, Marine and Field, Ocean Country, Princeton. saegtilla seabright, Somerset Hills. Tuxedo; Wee Burn. fwestfeld.
