Want Golf Officers Named an Open
Proposed Amendments to Constitution-Applicatio tions
For Cham pionship Tournaments.

So far the amateur is concerned, il is a mat
ter Of record that the Chicago Golf Club has al
ready had this competition two previous occa-
sions, According inside rumors. the amateurs
more than likely to gather over some course N
the Boston district Up TO date this championship
has never been held in Massachusetts. but it would
have gone there last season had not the Brae Burn
Country Club withdrawn its application. Most
likely some Massachusetts club will apply at he
annual meeting but at present writing it is I'M
possible to tell which one will seek the honor.
So far as the Deal application is concerned, L
will be remembered that the New Jersey organtza-
ton tried hard a year ago, but when the matter
was put TO vote Garden City won by an over
whel,ntng majority. The Deal course has been
undergoing constant improvements for several
years. and before the beginning Of another sea
son many additional traps will have made their
appearance. The great length Cf the course has
ever made it one of the difficult scoring prop
ositfons in the country The Metropolitan cham
pionship has been held the Deal links.
At the last annual session the Englewood club
endeavored to secure the open championship. but
the delegates preferred to present 1t on silver
plattee" to Myopia for thr fourth time In The
event of the Chicago Golf Club falling to get the
amateur il is not unlikely that IT Will be onereo
the open for consolation.
The women have already expressed a wish 10
pIav their next championship over Philadelphia
course which makes it appear as If Lakewood :
outlook is far from bright The course in the pines
however is level and possesses a number of short
holes. making it an ideal place for a women's
tournament

Proposed

r-nder q most innocent exterior. so far the
official announcement goes. J. w Mc+Nlhieg' ol Hi
Columbia Golf Club. of Washington gives tornlal
notice Of two proposed amendments TO the con
stit1Irion Of the United States Golf Association.
one of which. if passed. would dispense with the
nominating committee and leave the question OF
naming the officers 70 open meeting The pro
posed amendments, as announced yesterday by W
I1auovree Morgan secretary of the national asso-
citation, follow:
Resolved. That the membership of the United
states Golf Association shall consist Of active and and
associate clubs, the active clubs TO be those now now
known as associate and the associate to he those
now known as allied and that the constitution OF
the association be amended and changed accord
BesoI,ed That the constitution Of the United
States Golf Association he and II Is nesey ea Oh
60 oa G srt,le h, giving one number lower to
supply the omission.
The object Of the first amendment was hard for
golfers 10 understand last night unless the real
meaning is veiled. TO change the names would
simply cause confusion. as one player pointed out
The second amendment, however, indicates a de-
sire for change in the way of electing officers
and this is pertinent inasmuch some Western
golfers are dsgruntled because the West has failed
to get the presidency. Article VI OF the constitu-
tion reads:
nominating committee Of three shall be ap-
pointed in June of each year by the executive com
list Of Candidates for eection to the various Of
fees. such nominations to be made. to all clubs
prior TO the said annual meeting
By omitting the foregoing article it would be
possible to place two or more tickets in the field
without friction the annual meeting. In the
past the findings of the nominating committee have
been tantamount TO election.
Mr.. Morgan also announced yesterday that six
clubs have offered their courses or made applica-
ton for the various national championship tourna-
nents follows:
Amateur championship, Chicago Golf Club and
Deal Golf and Country Club
open championship. Englewood Golf Club and
Chicago Golf Club.
Women's championship, Country Club of Lake
