ALMOST A GOLF BOYCOTT
Eastern Women Shun National
Tourney at Chicago.
BOSTON PLAYERS ABSENT
Miss Hyde, the Metropolitan
Champion, to Represent
This District.

Eastern women are conspicuous by their
absence so far as the entry list for the
coming national golf championship tourna-
nent is concerned. When the players are
called to the first tee at the Homewod
Country Club. near Chicago. on Monday
morning only eight PLAYERS from the At
lantic seaboard will respond The lone
entrant from the metropolitan district is
Miss Lillian 2 Hyde. the South Shore
Field Club girl who won the champion
skip Of the wornen's Metropolitan Golf
Association at Montclair last spring.
Even more surprising. however, is the
Boston situation Not a single entry has
been made from that section and IT will
be the first time in the fifteen renewals
of this championship meeting that Massa-
chusetts has not been represented Phtla-
delphia has managed TO scrape up a slim
muster, most prominent of whom are Mrs
R H. Barlow. of Mericn, and Mrs. Caleb
F Fox, Of Huntingdon Valley. Both these
women have played with credit IN several
national tournaments. As far back as 1929
Mrs Fox vas runner-up. while year ago
at Merton Mrs. Barlow gained similar
distinction
The title holder. Miss Dorothy Campbell,
has entered from her old Scottish club az
North Berwick, although she has been a
resident of Canada for the last year. AS
might be expected, most Of the leading
Western players have rallied 70 the call

ton Harris Cfornerly Miss SaIlie Ainsleel.
